================================================================================================
Overview:
    The Hatchetmaniac is a 45 ton mixed tech Ambusher that is based upon the Hatchetman. Clan
    Donka designers significantly modified the design utilizing weight savings afforded by
    switching primarily to Clan ferro-fibrous armor and Endo Steel structure. The HCT-XD retains
    the same movement profile thanks to its Clan tech 180 XL fusion engine providing a top speed
    of 64.8 km/h and a jump range of 120 meters. The resulting mech has a slightly modified role
    focusing on adding a second four ton hatchet.

Capabilities:
    Central to the Hatetmaniac's long range weapons profile is its Clan LB 10-X autocannon fed
    by two tons of ammunition. At medium range, the HCT-XD swaps its pulse lasers for ER Medium
    Lasers which are also Clan based tech. While the loss of the accuracy afforded by pulse
    laser technology, the Hatchetmaniac has a three ton targeting computer that is tied to both
    the LB 10-X and ER Medium Lasers.
