Seems to me, that at this scale, you'd do well to rescale your game. 
Make Bolos the top of the scale, with weapon selections simulating
batteries.  Design smaller vehicles accordingly, and perhaps fielding
particularly small vehicles built as squads with an appropriate size
factor.

I won't guess at specifics, but i know with enough bashing it could be
worked out.
