*** You forget that Strike Freedom's two wings turned into eight flying instruments of [[More Dakka]]; giving it two Beam rifles, two hip-mounted railguns, a chest cannon, and eight remote-controlled beam launchers.

** Look. [[Gundam]] and all its incarnations are basically just trying to [[Up to Eleven|one up]] each other and see who can get the [[More Dakka|most Dakka]] on their suits. You have [[Mecha]] with Vulcan's in their feet, Guns for ''fingers,'' or hidden in their palms, often times has some mounted on their wrists or forearm (Including swords/whips/etc), on the chest/collar/abdomen/hip/and yes...'''crotch.''' The back of the mech is literally the catch-all location to put any shiny gadget or huge gun you can think of, wings are especially popular. If that weren't enough, most mechs also carry some more guns/swords concealed inside the giant shield they're carrying (If the shield itself is not a weapon in its own right) ''or inside'' the mech itself! ''Added to that,'' sometimes they even carry [[Attack Drone]](s) |

** Let's not forget the [[Humongous Mecha|Titans]], bipedal war machines standing between 30 and several hundred feet tall, which tend to put weapons everywhere they can fit. The Ork version, Gargants, do that too, and also put weapons where they ''don't'' fit, like on top of OTHER weapons. |

* ''[[Shadowrun]]'' has cyberhands or cyberarms that contain guns of different sorts. The game also featured cyberguns that can be mounted in the mouth or the eye. Though not strictly a weapon in and of itself, a targeting laser could also be mounted in the eye. There were also cybernetic weapon and equipment mounts that could be attached to your shoulder or back. Monofiliment whip users sometimes stored the weapon in their cyberarm and used the last joint on their artificial finger as the tip weight, not unlike ''[[Johnny Mnemonic]]'' |
