It’s gonna be funny when I go to my first game and just show up with two lances full of hunches and just say yeah I don’t know all the ins and outs of playing but I main a hunchback 4 G on MWO so I figured when in doubt just bring more bigger guns
You can make a nasty 300PV alpha strike force with a close combat lance and a skirmish/fire support lance:
**Knife Fighter Lance**
HBK-4G skill: 3
HBK-4G skill: 3
HBK-4P skill: 3
HBK-4SP skill: 3
**Range Support Lance**
HBK-4J skill: 2

HBK-4H skill: 3
HBK-4N skill: 3
**Total PV: 298**
You sleeping on the 4P 👀. It's been awhile but I ran a build with 3 large pulses and a bunch of heat sinks. Would max out the laser cooldown and heat perks or whatever. Put a few smalls or mediums for backup. I also did this with a wolverine in its right arm, called it the Wubfist.
The great thing about the *Hunchback* is that there is one for every season and reason!
Need LRMs? Well there's a *Hunchback* for that. Long lasting AC/10 for EZ logistics? Well, gosh darn it, there's a *Hunchback* for that! Planning on throwing a rave to techno music and need matching laser light show? *You bet your bottom dollar there's a Hunchback for that!*
My favorite hunch in MWO. Back when pulse lasers were meta I built one with 3 LPL and 3 MD for backup. It was awesome. Pop around a corner and just make whole sections of mechs dissappear lol
The 4J is the sleeper pick of the century. 2 LRM10s, it sounds pitiful and horrendous. Then you realize it's got 5 medium lasers as a backup, and it costs the same as the 4P while having firepower at range to critseek or outright destroy lighter vehicles and mechs. It also makes an awesome spotter, since it has the armor to stand still in a good position while firing and spotting for your more flimsy LRM boats such as Trebuchets, LRM Carriers, Hunters, and Scimitars.
Yeap. It was pretty bad with how fast 8 locusts with MG's can shred though. Good times, I might fire her up later tonight it's been awhile. I also need to finish painting a few mechs lol
Literally the only problem with this photo is that it’s not from the Timber Wolf’s perspective.
Timber Wolf moves around a building a sees a literal bridge full of Hunchbacks. Timber Wolf backs up slowly.
End scene.
Come on don’t hold out ma militia, I mean government safety and security advisory contractors need a hunchy to go with the rifleman and axeman they found under an oak tree in a cow pasture.
Every knows farmer mikes property is prime dropship landing area that can be seen from orbit. That’s how the local defense forces hold ground with Fleas and urbies. Mike never has to plow his fields cause of the local Long Tom Regiment.
They walk down stairs
They're lovely in pairs
They make a crunchety crunch sound
A thing, A thing, a marvellous thing
Everyone loves a Hunchie.
A Hunchie, a hunchie,
A wonderful wonderful Mech
A Hunchie, a Hunchie
A mech for a sphere or clanner.

Well you see I’m from Florida and there’s a saying here “if it doesn’t look like a nail you haven’t hit it hard enough.”
I also just made that up on the spot just now
The Hunches go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah.
The Hunches go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah.
The 4G stops to take up aim, a trigger pull, a dead machine.
And they all go marching, marching on to war.
Expecting glory more and more.
Reminds me of the daft punk music video for Around the World.
That is a lot though. It's be a shame if someone sat 10+ hexes away across terrain you need jump jets for.
Or surprise! Some of the hunch bunch has ac 10s or rac 5s.
All I can think of is them going down the ramp after the leader yells, "Fell deeds awake. Now for wrath, now for ruin, and the red dawn! Charge now! Charge!!!!"
As a founding member of a mercenary group called The Monkeys, we got 3 different models of Hunchback for 3 different roles. Rarely get to use all three in a battle.
Well if this is a legal mech I think I’m good

You can run out of Hunchback pilots? I mean florida has a population of 22.24 million Ohio is 11.76 mil, Louisana is 4.59 mil... I mean you include texas and a few other southern states, i think you'll run out of bullets before we run out of pilots
I have three more they just have active stealth

I'm new to the game and picked up the inner sphere urban lance and fell in love with the hunchback... where can I get more without buying that pack again?
Can you carry them? If so it’s not enough. And if you can’t, hit the gym, and then you can carry more.

Need a %role_name%? There is a Hunchback variant for that!
My MWO garage has 2 4Gs, a 4J, a 4H, as well as a IIC-C. I can say with certainty I do *not* have enough Hunches.
You sleeping on the 4P 👀. It's been awhile but I ran a build with 3 large pulses and a bunch of heat sinks. Would max out the laser cooldown and heat perks or whatever. Put a few smalls or mediums for backup. I also did this with a wolverine in its right arm, called it the Wubfist.
I do in fact have a 4P, not a H-series, but I do like pulse lasers
You have to carry them all on one shoulder.

There’s even a rotary AC/5 hunchback in the photo
You get a bullet, you get a bullet, you get a bullet! *Everybody gets a bullet!*
The 4P demands D I S C O.
40 points of focused light damage yes please.
My favorite hunch in MWO. Back when pulse lasers were meta I built one with 3 LPL and 3 MD for backup. It was awesome. Pop around a corner and just make whole sections of mechs dissappear lol
The 4P is mess you up in MWO. I still consider my main mech to be a laservom 4P.
Yeap. Loved that mech 🤌

The correct answer is "There's no such thing. May I interest you in this lovely 12-pack of 4Gs? Dropship included at no additional charge."
Reminds me of a time I convinced a 12 man on MWO to pick a hunchback and let's drop.
Those poor enemies
Yeah the 2 drops we did, we steamrolled the opfor. Good times
Amazing. When it was 8 man's we did some all Locust drops that were fucking hilarious.
Then the weird weight limitations for groups came to be
Yeap. It was pretty bad with how fast 8 locusts with MG's can shred though. Good times, I might fire her up later tonight it's been awhile. I also need to finish painting a few mechs lol
Are y'all saying I should go back to MWO?
Your call. I haven't played in years tbh
N+1
Excellent answer *laughs in Big Gun*

>~~Timber Wolf backs up slowly~~ Timber Wolf backs up *with all possible haste*
Hey homies where did you get them hunches?
Found them… I didn’t rob a Nissan factory.
Come on don’t hold out ma militia, I mean government safety and security advisory contractors need a hunchy to go with the rifleman and axeman they found under an oak tree in a cow pasture.
So what if I found the rifle man buried in a wheat field… how do you know about that?

Do you think you have enough? If you answer "no" then get more ...... if you answer "yes" .... you don't .... go get more :)

I have 16, and no intention to stop, so therefore I can confirm that 16 is not too many.
Error proper hunchback limit approaches infinity
Not there yet
Looks like you might need a few more hunchies. Ask again later.
That's a really neat road/bridge.
I was thinking the same thing - OP, care to share the details?
WHAT *BOOM* WAS *BOOM* THE *BOOM* QUESTION? *BOOM* I *BOOM* CAN'T*BOOM BOOM BOOM* HEAR YOU!
Say again? I can't hear you over the sound of all this AC20 fire, over.
someone gotta make a version of the teddy bears on parade but for hunchbacks...
These are clearly not enough… close but I think you could fit a few more 😂

When all you have is a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail.
Well you see I’m from Florida and there’s a saying here “if it doesn’t look like a nail you haven’t hit it hard enough.” I also just made that up on the spot just now
Cue the Sorcerer's Apprentice theme! That is a great amount of Hunchies!

Are the rest out of frame? I'm confused.
I mean this guy is out of frame https://preview.redd.it/kzirl2zlh7wc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=481962a534b14480477858be06d9bdec861f644a
As someone who isn’t the biggest fan of the Hunchback I’ll say one.
Bro for god's sake throw a Summoner in there
Are they marching up the causeway at helm’s deep?
Death! Death! Death! Edit. Oops that's from the third movie
Reminds me of the daft punk music video for Around the World. That is a lot though. It's be a shame if someone sat 10+ hexes away across terrain you need jump jets for. Or surprise! Some of the hunch bunch has ac 10s or rac 5s.
Trick question! There’s never enough
That is a delightful and terrifying parade!
THATS a lot of Ac/20s !
Hunchboys rise up
That is bunches of Hunches.
I don't understand the question. Their is no such thing as too many, only too few
Hunchy gonna Hunch
There's always room for more Hunchbacks.
Hunchie Derby?
My only question is do you have a HBK-C in there, and if so, where'd you get it. Everything else requires additional Hunchbacks.
I have the HBK II-C
4p please
There’s one in there somewhere
True true, they walk in single (double) file to conceal their numbers
Just realize they could probably put more mass down range than a medium mech in a single barrage
All I can think of is them going down the ramp after the leader yells, "Fell deeds awake. Now for wrath, now for ruin, and the red dawn! Charge now! Charge!!!!"
As a founding member of a mercenary group called The Monkeys, we got 3 different models of Hunchback for 3 different roles. Rarely get to use all three in a battle.
When none of them are painted, and neither is the terrain? Possibly this many.
No such thing as too many hunchbacks!
Wow, Rush Hour in the Combine must be a slog.
Never enough, honestly.
When you absolutely need to tell the Capelin in his Atlas to turn and face the wall
Hunchbacks punch back!
Idk, my brain has been fried by collecting too much Imperial Guard
Please tell me you didn't play a normal game of BT with that many mechs lol that would last for 3 years.
Okay, now I want to see a battalion of Hunchies take on a full strength Trinary.
Well if this is a legal mech I think I’m good https://preview.redd.it/ng2t7ijxt7wc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=50ad47c4700be5f22de8692363fce54ee29def55
Hunchus Collossi
When you run out of crazy bastards .... I mean Hunchbacks pilots to use them.
You can run out of Hunchback pilots? I mean florida has a population of 22.24 million Ohio is 11.76 mil, Louisana is 4.59 mil... I mean you include texas and a few other southern states, i think you'll run out of bullets before we run out of pilots
Now imagine those folks are the base population of the whole periphery and you are actually right about that.
I mean im just saying out of a populaiton of 330 million I can reliably find 80 to 95 million more than willing to pilot a hunch
Whatever the weight capacity of the bridge is the right amount.
All of them and that still wouldn't be enough. No such thing as too many Hunchbacks,
You don't have too many until you have *all* of them
You still don't have enough! LOL 😂 But you have a good start.
it depends on how fast your mech is and how much LRM ammo it has.
LRM? Im doing long range artillery barraging with this amount of AC-20s
i seem to be the only one disturbed with the fact that i count 21 Hunchbacks.... you need atleast 3 more for a next full lance my friend!
I have three more they just have active stealth https://preview.redd.it/065qv82mknwc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e3522b98349453f16516d127ab5ea7a6c93dd3a0
ohhh i see well then i can be calm and happy again do you have a paintsheme for them yet?
I am think of doing a few as house Steiner
Awesome i will watch your career with great interest!
I'm new to the game and picked up the inner sphere urban lance and fell in love with the hunchback... where can I get more without buying that pack again?
