Recognition notes
The Kraken (Bane) 2 is a 100-ton assault, cruising at 32 km/h and topping out at 54, slow going for its bulk. Where the original Kraken (Bane) packs five Ultra AC/2 in each arm, this configuration carries just two Ultra AC/10 per arm, trading a battery of light autocannon for fewer, harder-hitting guns. The four Machine Guns in the right torso carry over unchanged. Ironhold Alpha Complex builds the type at its Ironhold works, with refit production also handled by Olivetti Weaponry.
