For those in the UK, Rogue Trooper from 2000AD is probably the
definitive example. I also remember Dream Pod 9's Heavy Gear game has
G.E.I's in it (under a different name - I think they call them GRELs)
left behind by an invading earth force trying to take back it's colony
worlds. They actually go as far as having several 'castes' of
differently engineered infantry for different tasks.
