Masakaruni Heavy Mech
Perigrin:
The Masakaruni is the peak of Zidian design in Heavy weapons platforms. Capable of carrying a truely obscene number of guns, this mech lumbers its way across the battlefield like a malevolent god, destroying all in its path.
Name:Masakaruni
Purpose: A sufficiently badass heavy weapon platform for Zidian High command.
Appearance: A large mecha with Reverse (Chicken walker) legs, with an oblong rectangular torso segment, an aircraft style cockpit at the top, and covered in 15 gun mounts of varying sizes.
Weaponry: Default config mounts Four Anhuty heavy cannons, one on each arm. These are 120 mm direct fire non explosive BFG's. It also mounts two grenade launchers on either side of its torso for usage against light armor. Four Furzun Machine guns are bolted into the torso, these are 10 mm armor piercing machine guns. A flame thrower is mounted downward facing on the bottom of the torso section, to fry curious infantry trying to Luke Skywalker it. Two rear facing Furzuns and two shoulder mounted Yeghul middle launchers finish up the load out. The monstrosity weighs 120 tons and has a max speed of 25 km/h under normal gravitational conditions. It is difficult to repair, expensive, and clumsy at best. As such, it is reserved for only the best warriors.
Armor: Several tons of Esgi Ablative combat armor.

its a command vehicle of a race built entirely around combat, needs more.
Six:
I'm assuming this is based off the Warhawk/Masakari Assault Mech from Battletech, if so then that amount of weaponry seems fairly reasonable, maybe a bit more than the Masakari has but this is simply based off it.
The Warhawk/Masakari only weighs 85tons in Battletech, this weighs a staggering 120tons, so it's essentially a 'Heavy' Assault Mech, which justifies the extra weaponry even more when you consider Assault Mechs like the Dire Wolf that actually carried this amount of weaponry.
