The Archambault Type 6 is a Lorian Heavy Tank. It was produced after the Communist takeover of the Lorican Alliance. It was developed to further strengthen the firepower of the Lorican Army. Unlike the M52, It was hard to maintain but was simple to produce. It was also unreliable on mountainous terrain but it and could take on the Quenminese Type 50 and the Lucian Centurion if the range was near.
