RE: DS II: Rambling as usual, this time about infantry and walkers and stuff

If you read the rules, on page 14 it states that Infantry Walkers are
class 
1, while Combat Walkers and Transport Walkers are class 4-5 (or, it
states, 
class 4-7 if you're allowing oversized vehicles).  I just wanted to know

what happened to class 2 & 3 in the rules, and propose that class 2 fit
in 
the Infantry Walker Category while Class 3 would be small Combat
Walkers.

I tried the Battletech Tonnage/20 route. The problem is, this ends up
with 
20 ton mechs being class 1.  Even the smallest mecha are supposed to be 
huge, while a class 1 equates in DS II rules to a 3-4 meter high walker.
 I 
think a better way of doing it is to generalize the Battletech Wieght 
classes. Class 3 = Light, CLass 4 = Medium, Class 5=Heavy, Classes 6-7 =

Assault.

I always read it that infantry walkers were size 1 and transport walkers

could
be up to size 7.  I used BT tons/20 to get size.
