| + | |Description=Re-engineered by the Clans to mount dual shoulder [[CLBX20|LBX 20]] cannons, [[Jump Jets|jump jets]], and a startling array of support weapons, the Hunchback IIC sacrifices none of its namesake's maneuverability or deadlines in close-quarters fighting. | ||
| + | |Strengths=The Hunchback IIC can mount some of the most potent configurations in the entire medium-weight class thanks to a generous allocation of slots, but the difficulty is primarily in finding the free weight to do so. With two 3-slot [[Weapon Hardpoint|ballistic]] mounts on highly placed gunracks, the Hunchback makes can make an excellent hill sniper if configured with long range [[Autocannon|autocannons]] or [[Gauss Rifles]], or can alternately be configured for a short range offense as it is in its default configuration of double [[LBX20]]s. The inclusion of several modest beam weapon slots provide other options as well.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm TRM4 Technical Reference Site]</ref> | ||
| + | |Weaknesses=A lack of electronic options and relatively slow speed is the big tradeoff the Hunchback IIC faces in exchange for being able to mount a blistering array of weaponry. Armour protection overall on the stock configuration is very light at only 6 tons; this can be augmented to levels comparable to other mediums but requires tradeoffs in weight for the offensive department. | ||
| + | However, the Hunchback IIC still accelerates, torso twists, and corners as fast as most other medium 'mechs despite its relatively low top speed, allowing it to out maneuver most larger 'mechs - especially vital in an urban environment. The IIC also benefits from a modest profile that is short enough to hide behind hills and low buildings, and is skinny enough to slip through alleyways while still being difficult to hit from a side profile. Each gun rack also occupies its own unique armour slot independent of the torso armour sections, which means a Hunchback IIC will never lose its primary armament unless the racks are specifically targeted. | ||
| + | The small profile and maneuverability (augmented by [[Jump Jets|Jump Jet]] capability) of the Hunchback IIC, coupled with its high punch and low armour makes ambush tactics vital to success - especially so against larger targets. The Hunchback IIC works equally well as a bodyguard for sniper or fire-support 'mechs, or a lone-wolf hunter-killer that seeks out lone and isolated enemies; if it gets in the first shot a Hunchback IIC is more than capable of taking down a target twice its size.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm TRM4 Technical Reference Site]</ref> | ||
