Getting hit by 5 PPC's at once was like "I could swear my Mech used to have an arm there a minute ago."
There are a couple of legit laser boat builds, and despite what the forum whine would tell you, some are very usable, even with lots of alpha-ing.

Things like 6 MLaser Hunchback 4Ps, 4MPLaser Cicadas, 4LLaser Atlas-RSs are very common.

5 PPCs at once would likely make you explode however, even if you could find the hardpoints to mount them.
