Description
A product of the Kendall BattleMech factory rebuilt as a collaborative project between Kali Yama and the Alphard Trading Corporation, the Quasimodo was intended from the outset to be the next generation of the venerable Hunchback 'Mech.[1]
The designers of the Quasimodo echoed a number of elements from variants of the Hunchback, including embodying Rawlings 45 Jump Jets to allow the Quasimodo to jump as well as embodying a weapons load reminiscent of the HBK-4P Hunchback, but they weren't limited by what had come before. The Quasimodo was ten percent heavier than its progenitor, weighing in at fifty-five tons, and incorporated Triple-Strength Myomers and a Blue Shield Particle Field Damper; the Quasimodo also incorporated a Full-Head Ejection System.[1]
The Quasimodo debuted in the Inner Sphere via an arena bout on Solaris VII that saw the Quasimodo defeat a Hellstar, where the ability of a superior pilot in the Quasimodo to triumph over a much heavier 'Mech piloted by an inferior pilot was made clear.[1]
Armament
The Quasimodo mounted an all-energy weapons loadout, mounting a trio of Diverse Optics Type 47V Medium Variable-Speed Pulse Lasers in the right torso, a pair of Magna Mk. VI Extended-Range Medium Lasers split between each arm and a single Magna Mk. IV Extended-Range Small Laser in the head.[1]
Variants
As of 3145 no variants of the Quasimodo had been introduced to service.[1]
Design Quirks
The Quasimodo was not subject to any Design Quirks.[1]
