Description
The venerable Hunchback is famous for its AC/20-carrying ways but the Star League looked at the HBK-4G and decided they could do even better. Thus, the HBK-2G was developed, a Hunchback carrying two AC/20s. It took an XL engine and Endo-Steel skeleton to provide the weight and even then the 'Mech shed almost half its armor but they did it. While the HBK-2G was considered a failure, it went with Kerensky on the Exodus and inspired the Hunchback IIC. ComStar and the Word of Blake also put the design into service after finding a test bunker with several dozen in storage.

Description
The Hunchback 2CS4C is a field modification made by ComStar for combat against the Clans that swaps the heavy autocannon and medium lasers for a Gauss Rifle and an ER Large Laser. This variant first saw service at Tukayyid against Clan Nova Cat, where it performed with distinction.

Description
The Hunchback is famous for carrying the largest autocannons and being a generally deadly and versatile chassis. To that end, Periphery mech designers took the venerable Hunchback and replaced the autocannon with a Thumper Artillery Cannon along with two torso-mounted Medium Lasers (bringing the total lasers mounted to four). When combined with the design's 15 standard heat sinks, the HBK-4A runs cool and hits extremely hard but does it on a Periphery-friendly budget, ensuring that the major Periphery realms adopted the -4A in plentiful numbers.

Description
A somewhat rarely seen variant of the Hunchback, the HBK-4B swaps the large autocannon of the 4G for a Large Binary Laser and some extra heat sinks. It also includes two more Medium Lasers, bringing the total up to four. With this all energy loadout, the Hunchback HBK-4B is a potent and inexpensive Periphery brawler design.

Description
The Hunchback 4G is a tried and tested juggernaut on the field. One of the lightest 'Mechs to mount such a massive Autocannon, it is capable of destroying some lighter units in a single volley. It tends to mount heavy armor to boot.

Description
Modified to aid with indirect fire support as well as being able to act as a guardian for fire support lances, the HBK-4J succeeds at both roles. With its twin LRM-10s it can contribute to the barrage, whilest its five Medium Lasers allow it to fend off the Light 'Mechs that tend to harass fire support teams.

Description
The 4P version of the Hunchback trades the singular impact of a massive Autocannon for a frightening array of lighter Energy weaponry that is actually capable of dealing more damage overall. This all comes at the cost of greatly increased heat buildup, of course.

Description
The skunkworks of Periphery Armory, Inc, bring you this, the Hunchback-4PA. Unlike most Hunchbacks, this one is a critical damage machine, designed to chew up fragile enemy structure with its battery of Heavy and standard Machine Guns, all linked in MG Arrays. For ranged firepower, the HBK-4PA brings a pair of PAI Fury-brand Large Chemical Lasers to the party. Plenty of ammo for the MGs and lasers keeps the guns firing at all times. It's not the best choice, it's the Periphery Choice!

Description
The Hunchback is no stranger to unusual refits and the -4PA1 is no exception. Armed with a mixed firepower loadout of a Heavy Rifle and twin Gyrojet-20s, the -4PA1 has a surprising punch up at a respectable range. Up close it can call upon the standard Hunchback arm and head lasers.

Description
Based on rumors of the Hunchback II from the Star League era, the HBK-4PA2 uses twin shoulder mounted Medium Cannons with ammo feeds to produce huge damage at good ranges. The standard arm and head lasers backup the Cannons while a Prototype XL provides the necessary tonnage. 4 tons of ammo is sufficient for the mech's general use.

Description
The venerable Hunchback, with its vast weapon bays in its shoulders proved a more than adequate chassis for the new MLRS. So well that designers insited on cramming two of them in, leaving the Hunchback with only its classic cockpit small laser once all shots are expended. To do so, the 4PA3 unusually uses more Inner Sphere technology to save as much weight as possible. This Hunchback is a dangerous foe, at least while its ammunition lasts.

Description
The 4SP variant of the Hunchback replaces the Autocannon with two SRM6 launchers. This has the potential of doing more damage than the standard model, though the damage is more spread out. This firepower is supplemented by two Medium Lasers in each arm.

Description
A fairly common Periphery refit of the Hunchback, the -5H is based on the classic HBK-4G and retains that 'Mech's AC/20 and twin Medium Lasers. However, it removes the Small Laser and 1.5 tons of armor in order to mount three Rocket Launcher-20 racks in the left torso for an incredible one-two punch (AC/20 + 60 rockets will destroy just about anything after all). The -5H proved a popular variant and proliferated through the larger Periphery states.

Description
The 5M Hunchback is a simple upgrade of the original 4G model. The most notable changes saw the heat sinks upgraded to double-strength models, while the small laser was upgraded to a Small Pulse Laser and CASE was added to protect against ammunition explosions. The extra weight required to add the newer systems forced the designers to reduce ammunition storage to a single ton of reloads, making it unpopular with MechWarriors.

Description
A very simple FWLM field upgrade of the lackluster 5M Hunchback introduced in 3057, the 5N model simply downgrades the pulse laser back to a small laser and removes the CASE to carry an extra ton of reloads, retaining the double heat sinks.

Description
The other Hunchback offering from the minds at Periphery Armory, Inc, the HBK-5PA is built around our patented Jury-Rigged XL engine for power. That power lets the -5PA carry a pair of Medium Cannons for maximum burst firepower. A trio of Machine Guns cover the close range and shred any exposed parts on enemy mechs while a pair of Large Chemical Lasers provide steady ranged firepower. It's not flashy, it's not sexy, but it brings home the bacon, just like a Hunchback should. Buy yours today!

Description
Originally a refit line converted to full production, the -5S is a complete overhaul of the Hunchback design developed by Norse-Storm BattleMechs in 3058. The structure has been modified to use Endo Steel construction techniques, the engine has been upgraded to a Light Fusion Engine, and four Jump Jets were added for increased mobility. The 'Mech carries, as its primary weapon, an LB-X Autocannon/20 with CASE-protected ammunition supported by two medium pulse lasers and a single small laser.

Description
Produced by Norse-Storm in the 3060s, the -5SS is based on the chassis of the -5S, carrying two MML 9s fed by three tons worth of ammunition. Three ER Medium Lasers and an ER Small Laser provide added close range damage potential. The use of a Heavy-Duty Gyro protects this fragile piece of equipment from damage.

Description
This variant, produced in 3059, was Kali Yama's response to the complaints about the lack of AC/20 ammunition that spawned the ad hoc -5N field refit. The -6N removes three extra double heat sinks and replaces them with three more tons of reloads.

Description
Taking the Hunchback 4P to it's logical conclusion, the 6PA is a Periphery take on the discoback. Though the 8 tons of chemical ammo poses a risk, the usage of chemical lasers lets the 6PA run cooler, and therefore cram a total of 14 medium chemical lasers into its frame, for quite the punch.

Description
This variant of the venerable Hunchback uses an endo steel chassis and 300-rated XL engine to save weight and allow it to reach a top speed of 96 km/h. It carries an ER medium laser in each arm and a single SRM-6 in the left torso. The main hitting power comes from an LB 20-X autocannon in the right torso. The SRM has a ton of ammunition, while the autocannon has two tons of ammo. It is protected by 10 tons of armor and carries 10 double heat sinks.

Description
Designed for the arenas of Solaris VII, the Hunchback HBK-6V is a modern take on the Succession War era HBK-4P variant, affectionately known as the Discoback. Where the -4P was equipped with a large hunch of Medium Lasers, the HBK-6V uses less lasers but makes them all much more advanced, with a trio of Medium Variable-Speed Pulse Lasers taking top billing. A pair of ER Medium Lasers and an ER Small Laser back them up, while 13 DHS and a 250-rated XL engine provide power. 5 Jump Jets give unexpected mobility, ensuring the -6V is never caught unprepared in the arena.

Description
A modern redesign of the 4P, the 7P Hunchback upgrades the engine to a light model, the heatsinks to doubles, and is built around an endo-steel skeleton. All those weight savings let it mount the original's energy array, as well as the deadly but difficult to use Bombast PPC, with a capacitor. The 7P requires a skilled pilot, but it has immense damage potential.

Special Note: The Hunchback HBK-DIE is a custom Community Content 'Mech.
Description
Built around the gigantic Rotary UAC/20, the HBK-DIE was named after what normally happens to people that either fight against or drive one of these Hunchbacks. The Rotary UAC/20 is huge, taking an entire torso and also requiring fragile Composite structure and brittle and bulky Heavy Ferro-Fibrous armor to be fitted. The 6 tons of ammo are relatively paltry for such a thirsty weapon. Still, one salvo at full power from the Rotary UAC/20 can instantly vaporize just about anything.

Description

Both weapons are supplied with two tons of ammunition. Thirteen Double Heat Sinks keep the 'Mech cool.

Description
Brand new at the time of the Sanctuary Worlder's exodus from the Inner Sphere, the Hunchback had yet to be proven in combat when they left. Still, it accompanied them on their journey, where it quickly proved a powerful and enduring member of their armies. The Hunchback II, as it came to be called, mounts a gargantuan Double-Barrel/20, capable of cracking any armor in seconds. A pair of Medium Electro-Lasers and a Small Electro-Laser back it up. 3 tons of SHIELD-protected ammo keep the guns firing while 10 DHS and thick armor keep the mech functional.

Description
Brand new at the time of the Sanctuary Worlder's exodus from the Inner Sphere, the Hunchback had yet to be proven in combat when they left. Still, it accompanied them on their journey, where it quickly proved a powerful and enduring member of their armies. The HBK-2-5D mixes up the traditional formula by mounting two large ballistics instead of one. In each shoulder sits a 10-class autocannon, a Double-Barrel on the right and a Scattergun on the left. 4 total tons of ammunition keep the guns alive. The traditional electro-laser backup accompanies the cannons.

Description
Designed for a very different need from the standard Hunchback II, the HBK-2-6B brings a battery of Bombard Cannons to bear against its foes. A pair each of Bombard/9s and Bombard/3s provide easy modulation of ammunition types and expenditures for the discerning MechWarrior while 6 tons of ammunition provides plenty of options. A paltry pair of Medium Modal Lasers back up the Bombards at close range, though the Hunchback II can just as easily throw hands instead.

Description
Built in secret by the Mallard Republic to help test out their Mass Driver weapon system, the HBK-2-6X ports around a Medium Mass Driver for maximum effectiveness. Armed with 2 tons of ammo, the gigantic weapon can flatter just about anything at any range. A trio of Twin-Linked Lasers provide backup for the Mass Driver though they're largely unnecessary. A piece of Mk. 4 Modular Plating and more tonnage of armor keep the driver safe from return fire while 13 DHS keep the mech cold. A Sanctuary XL provides motive power, though the -6X is not a fast design.

Description
This variant of the Hunchback was based roughly on the modern Hunchback HBK-6S, modified by a mercenary with a sense of humor. Replacing the Hunchback's mighty fists with a set of Solaris VII Claws, the -SH hits incredibly hard in melee. For firepower at range it keeps the mammoth LB-20X Autocannon while adding a Clan-grade Streak SRM-4 for extra punch against light mechs. Otherwise, the design is fairly standard, cleaving the stock HBK-6S standard.
