Does the Patriarch from Killing Floor 2 count as having this? I think it fits with the First Kind (arm is cannon).

Technorg from the Original Ben 10 show has a mace in place of his left hand. https://ben10.fandom.com/wiki/Technorg

So, I'm having a hard time figuring out where to put the example from The Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot. The Big Guy's arms can split open from the elbows revealing machine guns from his forearms and biceps. I'm not sure how to label that between the two choices on the Arm Cannon page.

There are instances in which an arm can become a cannon. Since that is not Awesome, but Impractical, shouldn't that get it own section.

I should have made my post as a seperate topic, so here it is. I think that there should a spilt for where a character that has an Arm Cannon holds the arm that it's on with his/her other and before firing the Arm Cannon, please reply and tell me what you think

bah! arm cannons aren't impractical at all. if all your robot is going to do is shoot with at least one of its arms, it makes waaaaaay more sense to integrate the weapon. Think about it- how easy would it be for a human operator to pick up, properly position, and pull the trigger of a rifle the size of a semi trailer using a pair of joysticks? Not to mention that mechanical failure in the index finger would render a robot incapable of using its gun.
