V5.00PHatamoto-Z HTMZ-O  (base) '@@MA 6 6 2 4 omni, c3s @ "" % v (Unknown) v K The HTM-27T Hatamoto-Chi is one of the first BattleMechs fielded by the DCMS using advanced construction materials, most notably an endo-steel chassis and ferro-fibrous armor. First deployed by the DCMS on An Ting in 3039, the Hatamoto-Chi is a significant conversion of the Wells Technologies CGR-lAl. The modifications performed by Kurita engineers were so extensive that the 'Mech was given a new designation. Externally, the Hatamoto-Chi is similar to its parent design, retaining the large shoulder assemblies and lacking a left hand, which give the machine its characteristic silhouette. The most obvious distinguishing characteristics of this class are the radiator fins mounted on the center rear torso and head. The rear fin, resembling an ancient samurai's sashimono (back banner), is what gives the BattleMech its name.      :Source: Record Sheets: Upgrades Entered by Larry Leslie [ none ]Maltex CorporationErraiPitbanMitchell Argon w.
