It turns the 'Mech into a brawler with the inclusion of [[Triple Strength Myomer]] and a [[Hatchet]]. It returns to the XL engine of the 5S and keeps the ubiquitous Small Laser. The LB-X Autocannon/10 is retained from the 6S, though it moves to the other side. An [[ER Large Laser]] is added for use at long range and a [[Snub-Nose PPC]] is effective at medium range, though it is more damaging up close. An [[XL Gyro]] frees up tonnage for four medium lasers, two standard and two extended range models, as well an [[ER Small Laser]]. The inclusion of only thirteen double heat sinks ensures that the myomer activates easily. A [[C3 slave unit]] allows the 8S to share targeting telemetry, though the fact that it is not one of the Word's improved versions suggests that this 'Mech is not intended for use by [[Word of Blake Militia]], but rather their mercenaries or even important planetary garrisons.
