Damn, I forgot to account for the 'looking damn fine' factor in my argument. Rule of cool always did triumph over reality...Personally, I think that if the military had reached the required technologies for a mech they would just use that technology to figure out a way to make existing tank designs more manoeuvrable. Less money spent that way, plus you can upgrade tanks already in action. But you are right: we just argue about this for days, or we could actually get some role-play done. Speaking of which: does anyone want to trade food for low cost goods such as pots, pans, common engine parts and cookers- basically anything that would be made in China nowadays?

That rule always seems to triumph.... 

Anyway sure, I suppose we can work out an arrangement
