I have absoloutely no idea what they are!
Well, safe to say I'm wrong, but for future reference, a "hardpoint" is any place you can mount a weapon, piece of equipment, etc. onto a vehicle - the RL equivalent of TF's Powerlinx Ports I guess.
The idea then would be to attach Niobium Magnets or something else of decent strength to various parts of Hecatomb's body, and work up a large array of different weapons and gear with metal bits or magnets so that you could swap them out easily.
I thought long ago that Armada would have been more well received if they had done something like that. Put metal plates on the TFs instead of the eye-sore minicon pegs, and put magnets in the minicons. But then I don't know how that could activate a gimmick...
