See page 144 Total Warfare:
Multiple Physical Attacks: A ‘Mech may only make a single type of physical attack in a single turn: charging, clubbing, death from above, kick, punch, push or phyiscal weapon attack. Even if a ’Mech mounts two physical weapons (identical or otherwise), it can only make a single physical weapon attack. When making a single punch attack, a player can punch with one or two arms (see Punch Attacks, p. 145).
To answer your specific questions...
Quote:
see in Total Warfare that one can make two punching attacks per round, as long as all the actuators are present...
But can I kick in that same round?
No. Per the rules quoted above, you could not combine the kick with another type of attack (punching, in your example).
Quote:
What about weapons? If I've got two hatchets, can I attack with both?
No. Per the rules quoted above, you could only attack with one physical weapon (a hatchet in this case)
Quote:
How about two hatchets AND a kicking attack?
No for two reasons. You cannot combine melee attacks of different types (weapon and kick, in this case) and you cannot make two physical weapon attacks (hatchets, in this case).
