    I second Lonestars statement.

    Not only is it pointlessly expensive, theres very Few instances where walking is more efficient/effective than other methods of transporting.

      A Tank could take it out. It would have better armor, speed, and a more powerful main gun.

          forget all that advantages.

          You only need it to be cheaper to produce to make it SOOO much more superior.

            well mechs are worthless because of the fact they have to walk.

            I didn't mean to use robots exactly like that. I would think they would be too unstable for use in real life.

              It has nothing to do with walking, and everything to do with being a ridiculously large target with necessarily thin armor at points that are both critical and exposed (i.e., hip actuators, etc.).

                and that has to deal with walking

                If it wasn't walking it would be lower and have a much smaller profile.

                  walking doesnt have to necessarily make an object alot taller than you imagine it to be.

                  Are you imagining a humanoid robot? You can simply have 2 steel pods w hydrolaulics simulating "walking" (aka falling + pushing ground) then it will resolve all those problems.

                  Still inefficient comapred to wheels. and why would you want a wobbling tank over sturdy tank that rolls on the ground?
                  :-p

                    Nah, tanks suck compared to Mechs.
