Four weapon mounts on a frame built to stay in the engagement until everything else has left it. The Broadaxe doesn't rely on alpha strikes or maneuver — it plants itself at fighting range and keeps firing until the field is clear. The mixed loadout covers kinetic, energy, and explosive damage, which means whatever the target is resistant to, at least two of the guns don't care. Crimson Fleet captains refer to the Broadaxe's combat philosophy as "sustained professional violence." The armor holds long enough for the philosophy to reach its conclusion.
