So probably a DDS Kingston ER PPC, a Type D LB-X10 Autocannon, 2 Pattern J7 Streak SRM6 racks, and 4 Series 2c Light Machine guns. Streaks aren't ammo hungry so 1 ton per launcher, plus 2 tons for the MGs, 1/2 ton per gun. 3-4 tons for the LB-X10 so you can have a mix of solid and cluster rounds.

All of that sound about right? (and yes I know the names of several brands of weapons in B-tech by heart, I'm a lore whore)

Almost, replace the LB with an Ultra  3 tons of ammo for it. And you're right with ammo for the other weapons.  Although there's only a half ton of ammo for the 4 MG's.

Eh, when I thought general purpose I thought general purpose. So LB-X made sense, plus I'm a big fan of multi-barrel ultra and rotary autocannons so.

I was gonna go with an LB, but I've got a few of them scattered across the vehicle designs, so I said nah, and went for an ultra.  And I agree with ya, on a Mech a rotary Ultra makes sense, but on a tank which is more stable, having it like a chain gun at least to me makes more sense so it fires pretty darn rapidly, think -  www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPq1zk…  as an example

So more thinking like a M242 Bushmaster 30mm. Got it (didn't watch the video but I catch your meaning)
