The Hunchback has an impressive record for tightly staged urban fighting, where its Heavy Autocannon is lethal at short range. Its armor is adequate for it weight class, but it is not sufficient for extended toe-to-toe combat with Heavy or Assault 'Mechs.

In the 3012 battle for the city of Paramus, Hunchbacks led the sweep-and-clear maneuvers that preceded entry of the main invasion force. More than capable of obliterating Light garrison 'Mechs and establishing a beachhead while slower and more powerful 'Mechs closed in on the battle theatre, the Hunchbacks acquitted themselves admirably against their foes.

Hunchbacks make an excellent 'Mech to fire the opening salvos of battle, especially when camouflage positions behind buildings can obscure them from long-range weapons fire.
