They're design is more for infantry support as their armaments, cluster munitions(missile/rocket), a large caliber galting gun(12.7/20mm) and a short barrel huge bore rifled gun(to better splat/spread HESH rounds and any structure/light armor).(03-23-2017, 10:10 AM)SCN-3_NULL Wrote: anyway another art drop eventhough Surge might call these mech weird
Well they are an ODSM (Orbital drop shock mech of course) design that can ball up into a much smaller space for storage. So to be honest they are rather efficient depending on the military doctrine using them. specifically since those would fall under >Powered armor due to their capability of direct infantry support and/or replacement in hazardous fields of combat while remaining relatively cheaper by far than they could be both material wise and currency-per-production-wise. Notable easily by how they have been relatively mass produced, it's easy to see. So over all I'd say it's actually a pretty damn good picture.
No I am NOT trying to speak for surge. This is my personal thoughts. I'm just interested in mechs too.
Supposingly it replaced tanks in the infantry support role, however are more vulnerable in a main battle tank engagement but fare batter than tanks if air units were present like gunships.
Though I liked your analysis, thought it isnt classed in between mech and powerarmors as the pilot compartment is more spacious to fit either a 6-7ft tall mechanian or a man in powerarmor(though fallout 4's powerarmor wouldnt fit unfortunatly). Their smaller size is for easier logistics like tanks today that I can agree
