Okay I am toying with the idea of a quad roughly 50 to 75 tons that has four LBX weapons or RACs and has them in a turret mounted right on top of the chassis which would be nothing more then the legs and body/ammo bins.

Now is this possible in Battletech or not?

Given time and plenty of paper, a philosopher can prove anything.

try to build it and see if you can make it work
Why argue if the glass is half full or half empty, when you know someone is going to knock it over and spill it anyways.

It's not possible the way you have it laid out. For one reason only. A quad can only have one turret and you cannot have four RACs or LBX in one torso with the turret equipment. You can get close. I don't have access to my design programs at the moment, but what I came up with was four RAC/2, three turret mounted on the right side with one fixed on the left. 3/5/2 75 tonner.

No. Standard AC/2s would work but you would end up horribly under gunned. I did think about doing it in clan form and I don't know the crits for a clan RAC/2 off the top of my head but I would have to think it would work. The problem is simply space, you need four ACs that take up 11 or fewer criticals.
