Description

Developed by Team Banzai as the big brother of the highly successful Hatchetman, the Axman was designed exclusively to be a 'Mech killer. The two primary weapons on board the Axman are its massive Hatchet, which alone weighs five tons and can cleave through enemy 'Mech armor like a knife through butter, and a Autocannon/20, which can strip over a ton of armor off of an enemy 'Mech with ease. The 'Mech also carries a trio of Medium Lasers and a highly accurate Large Pulse Laser for short to intermediate range combat.

Description

The 2N variant of the Axman, introduced in the late 3040s, has been called a mistake by some and a stroke of genius by others. The 2N carries two LRM-15 launchers in place of the massive Autocannon/20 as the autocannon often jammed on early models. While this changes the 'Mech's role from a city fighter to a long-range bombardment 'Mech, it also allows the Axman to be a support 'Mech that can defend itself with its massive Hatchet at ranges where the LRMs are ineffective if an enemy closes.

Description

Created by the same, so-called diseased, minds that created the Axman-2N, the -3N takes the Axman's role of fire support to another level. Built on an Endo-Steel frame, one LRM-15 has been upgrade to a 20 while the other has been replaced with a LB-5X Autocannon. The Medium Lasers are now Pulse versions and on the left arm instead of the right and the Hatchet has been retained. The Axman-3N proved a failure and most were sold off cheaply to mercenary units and minor militias.

Description

The Furillo manufactured 3S introduced in 3057 removes the XL Engine of the 1N and 2N variants and replaces it with a Light Fusion Engine. This exclusively Lyran variant of the Axman is armed with a massive LB-X Autocannon/20, which allows it to fire either solid rounds or cluster rounds that act like a 'Mech sized shotgun. The 'Mech also carries three ER Medium Lasers for close combat and a Guardian ECM Suite, which defends against enemy electronic warfare equipment.
