Re: Infantry Walkers

I don't know about the mobility part.  Two legs are fundamentally
unstable (even humans, much more intricately designed, can stumble in
bad
terrain) and need to be much more complex than other mobility types to
traverse the same kind of terrain.
Heh, I'd rather have an airborne tank, which would carry much heavier
weapons and armor for its size than a walker.
