Mechs are complex machines, but that doesn't mean Oceanyka's less technologically inclined won't try to build them. Gunmechs built by raiders, gangs, bandits, pirates and such tend to be minimalistic when it comes to armour and weapons, opting for speed. They are the only type of mech that can reliably run, if their pilot is skilled enough. These types of vehicles usually carry but a heavy machinegun and some sort of recoilless weapon, such as flamethrowers or recoilless rifles.
