Recognition Notes
The BattleAxe BKX-1X is a 70-ton juggernaut that moves at a plodding 32 km/h and tops out at 54, slow even for its weight class. A large laser rides in each arm, and the torsos mix ranged and close-in firepower with an LRM 5 in each side torso, an SRM 6 in the right torso, and a machine gun in the center torso and another in the head. Its armor is of primitive construction, and 18 single heat sinks handle the engine's output. Achernar Battlemechs builds it at New Avalon, with additional production at other sites.
