Hunchback Prime

1x Heavy Autocanon 2x Laser (no medium range weapons) (no long range weapons) Jump Jets 2x Armor

Description

The Hunchback has an impressive record for tightly staged urban fighting, where its Heavy Autocanon is lethal at short-range. Its armor is adequate for its weight class, but is not sufficient for extended toe-to-toe combat with Heavy or Assault Mechs.

In the 3012 battle for the city of Paramus, Hunchbacks led the clear-and-sweep maneuvers that proceeded entry of the main invasion force. More than capable of obliterating light garrison Mechs and establishing a beachhead while slower and more powerful Mechs closed in on the battle theatre, the Hunchbacks acquitted themselves admirably against their foes. 

Hunchbacks make an excellent Mech to fire the opening salvos of battle, especially when camouflage positions behind buildings can obscure them from long-range weapons fire.
