Overview:
    "What do we do with this big stash of Binary Lasers we just found?"
    
    "I dunno, just chuck them on something."
    
    "Like what?"
    
    "Aren't there some damaged Hunchbacks in inventory?"
    - Conversation between two Norse-Storm Battlemechs mechengineers, 3042.

Capabilities:
    Taking the idea of an all energy based loadout from the 4P and mixing it with the 4H's idea
    of a smaller medium ranged weapon, the HBK-4S hunchback swaps out its Autocannon/10 for a
    more powerful Binary Laser Cannon. Heat is handled by an increased heat sink count alongside
    doubles. Two small pulse lasers replace the standard small laser on the Hunchback, giving it
    better anti-infantry capability. The standard 4 medium lasers of the 4H are also maintained.
    An extra half ton of armor is added to the mech as well, nearly maximizing the protection.
