the next most common type of mech. is the quadruped mech. these mechs. are either comparability light and used for scouting, or are heavy duty mechs. supporting either massive weapons or heavy field machinery.

the next type of mech. is the sextant mech. it is very difficult to maneuver as it requires a pilot for each leg but it makes up for it by its ability to support heavy field artillery. it can also serve as a mobile base and a launching pad for several smaller mechs.

this is to note that mechs. do not have to be huge overpowered hunks of machinery they can be graceful metallic masterpieces, the can also be of any size from as large as a mountain to the size of a tiny insect .

Are the mechs considered futuristic? What do you think is the most helpful/needed one?
