Picture a demilled Sherman tank with a ball mounted M1919, Bofors 40mm gun in lieu of the 75mm gun, an M60 pintlle mount, and a M40 recoiless rifle mounted on the turret bustle as part of the rapid reaction force of a cantonment.
Or as the centerpiece of a marauder formation. You don't need APFSDSDU for intimidating the peasants and making an example of the odd resister who tries to off the warlord with a hunting rifle. Put some 40mm into a few church steeples (and the snipers in them) and the rest of the subjects wise up real quick.

Enter the PCs, stage left...
