================================================================================================
Overview:
    A venerable medium urban assault mech, the Hunchback has become famous for the mounting of
    it's AC/20 on it's right shoulder. So much so that when this weapon was removed it actually
    created the moniker "Swayback" for the lack of the hunch that has been the namesake of the
    design since it's inception.

Capabilities:
    While the HBK-6X dropped the old AC/20, it installed a LB 20-X AC in it's place retaining
    the hunch of the design while improving range and urban combat efficiency. The addition of a
    ton of ammo also helped to keep the unit in battles longer between reloadings. The addition
    of an SRM-6 to the LT is the most radical part of this design, mounting one ton of ammo it
    should remain in combat use as long as the AC. The twin medium lasers have been relocated to
    the CT and improved to ER designs.

Deployment:
    SO far there have been sightings of this unit in combat. Though a battalion's worth have
    been stationed along the Capellan border with the Federated Commonwealth.
