But it isn't a normal cruiser, is it? It's... hmm... a Frankenstein of Space? A hodj-podj? A floating pile of junk held together by duct tape and spittle?
:P
I'm all for some less-than-normal guns, but in return, higher-than-normal cargo space. Give it the ability to lay mines, have a nice armor rating, slightly smaller than other Cruisers... I think it would be fun to see.
Add gray strips to indicate the duct tape, though! :P

I think a FEW windows should be added. Some to represent the bridge and a crew area, but only the nessesicty. Cause I think to built a ship out of spare crap you would only put windows in if you REALLY needed to or wanted to or they were nessicary.
This ship reminds me of the 'Reavers' from Serenity/Firefly. IM sure msot of you have seen that show and you will know what Im talking about. Massive recyled ships used by scary half human raider demon things to kill and plunder everything they see. Good Times.
I'd go for 1 battleship turret. Some big puncher, like the Lib forward gun. Typical 8 or 7 level 9 turrets after and perhaps 4 transport-grade turrets. Would add some variety.
"You have to give the Junkers points for style. This cruiser, the flagship of the Junkers' fleet, is cobbled together from bits of other ships and scrap pilfered from all over Sirius. But despite its Frankensteinian makeup, or perhaps because of it, this vessel is no tin-can -- with an extra strong hull and capacious cargo room, coupled with formidable firepower, the Junkers Cruiser is more than up to the challenge of protecting the Junkers' interests from any contingency."
