Titanium Rhapsody: Sign-up

Dracorian: I suppose that could work, though the arms would be much heavier and without the need to really power them for extra oomph. If I had to think of an example how they'd probably look... almost something like Hellboy, but either rounder or squarer at your leisure I suppose.

Naqel: I believe that would end up in the 'walker' category of mechs. Basically, as a heavy planetary/anti-air/anti-infantry type. Though in space, they'd probably be piloted mobile turrets magnetized to the hull of a carrier or flying fortress. Of course they'd have the weaponry suited for long range combat, including turrets, rocket launchers and most possibly a rail-gun for their most advanced weapon. They generally have targeting/radar range of whatever gunship/carrier/flying fortress they're attached to and on land warfare would limit them to average range for each.
