I don't think this question has been brought up before. Orks are probably the best example but their weapons attach the fire arc to the weapon profile. AMTL has a bit different system that attaches the weapon arc to the weapon slot on the titan itself. eg. any carapace weapon selected inherits the fixed forward arc of the carapace mount. That being the case, I'd say that AMTL weapons such as laser burners and CCW's would inherit the firing arc of the location they are placed on and that a savvy player could avoid the extra attacks those weapons provide by carefully placing units outside of the firing arcs.

I don't have any plans to change this.

Titan assault weapons have arcs like any other weapon but this often isn't that much of a problem as a Titan can often use it's counter charge move to move and turn towards the enemy.

Not if they lock you in B2B contact. Fairly sure you can't barge on a counter charge.

When a war engine charges it is allowed to bargeany non-war engine units belonging to the target formation out of the way and carry on with its charge move. Move the war engine as far as desired, and then place any units that were barged out of the way as close as you can to their starting point, while still touching the base of the war engine that so rudely pushed them aside. The maximum number of units a war engine can barge aside in this manner is two per point of its starting damage capacity. Note that war engines may not barge other war engines out of the way.

Q: Can a war engines barge units out of the way with a counter charge?
A: Yes.

No need - I checked and it's confirmed in a FAQ in the tournament pack:



Remember the WE must countercharge towards the closest enemies, just like any other counter charge.
