More thoughts?
reading these threads, I suggest:
- human-shaped Mecha are more logically intimidating (adding the height
to rolls)
- The versatility of weapons might be a factor
- e.g., the mecha-sized firearms can easily be traded, removed for repair
- they may be issued more easily in hostile environments for specific
missions (e.g., large-bore/ small bore/ flamer / laser / missile) (as
opposed to exposing connections of modular weapons)
- altitude for sighting/radar/radio without flimsy antennas?
- legs permit passing smaller areas than wide tracks?
- footprints are slightly more stealthy than tracks (and more natural)
- they can go up steps ? ( :P )
- climbing structures and mountains without a rope? (not to mention
ladders on large structures/vehicles)
