You should make a character in Traveller, take full Army career and then go full melee.
Unarmed Warrior?

There's a homebrew class somewhere called the Pugilist. It's pretty good, if your Dm will allow it

What good is a system that won't let you hit the gotch style piledriver?
Juan Sanders
It's a fantasy game that runs on numbers and dice rolls
If the GM allows the players to break through plate armour with their bare hands, then they can do just that
not like people actually treat the character being clad in full plate as such
it's just another stat added to the page

Decent homebrew, might be a tad OP but I might just have munchkin players

Depending on how mini-maxed you want to be, I would suggest barbarian with tavern brawler.

Switch to PF, play a Brawler. Hell, take the Pummeling Style feats for maximum brute force combat.
Cooper Flores
I don't know about 5e, the only unarmed style class that was more about stronk power was the pathfinder brawler

>Switch to PF
It's easy to ignore shitty suggestions, because ususally this is how they start.

Hey, OP wants a 5e, non-monk brawler options, and unfortunately there's not much support for that. PF is at least still d20 and offers something fitting.
