================================================================================================
Overview:
    Built for urban combat and close range brawling, this BattleMech has the heavy armor and
    weaponry to stand up against any foe in the dense cover of a city environment. Its heavy
    armament does come at a cost: in terms of maneuverability and heat dissipation the Hunchback
    is merely average, while the lack of long-range weapons means the Hunchback is little more
    than a slow moving target in the open. In an attack the slow speed of the Hunchback forces
    it to participate as part of the second wave, exploiting any weaknesses in the enemy's armor
    after they've been softened up.

Capabilities:
    The 7SH was a refit spawned from the need of the Sly Headsmen to commit some of their older,
    unused 'Mechs to the Hinterlands expedition. Having to rely purely on Inner Sphere grade
    components, the choice to create something that was wholly indipendent from supply lines,
    easy to maintain, cheap, and able to punch decently hard started this refit of the venerable
    Hunchback. The choice was made to replace the AC/20 with a heavy PPC, which coupled with
    three ER medium lasers and a plentiful amount of double heatsinks allowed the 7SH to run and
    fire all of its weapons without any heat concerns. The usage of an endo steel chassis and
    light ferro-fibrous armor also allowed the engine to be upgraded, giving this variant of the
    Hunchback a top speed of 86 km/h.
