if mechs were real i would not pilot one to war. id still play the games. if i could afford it id have one as a hobby in the back yard but that's about it.

it would be pretty damn awesome though.

What's this "IF `Mechs were real" stuff? Don't you know your history?

History buffs will recognize the prototype Urbanmech on the right.

None, as the greenpeace would lie all around it claiming it exhausts too much. Have fun trying to explain them it doesn't... :P

If I could pilot any mech, it would have to be the Mad Cat MK II. That thing is brutal.

Would Greenpeace complain about hydrogen fusion? Dude, they'd kill a thousand baby Tibettian Dolphin Panda Seals if they had the chance to convert our major economic factions to fusion-based instead of operating from traditional energy reserves.

And I wouldn't pilot a mech, unfortunately. Too-high of a frontal surface area for my tastes.

The SHD-2K Shadow Hawk. Not to ride around in, just to look at...and tinker. Maybe put in leather seating, a cup holder, maybe a personal music system.

Being an oldfag myself, I'd probably have to go with either the Warhammer or the Centurion.

Adder Prime of course! It's fast and well-armored, I can torch people with the flamer if they annoy me, and it's got LIGHTNING CANNONS (Kinda sorta)!!!

I'd go for a Mad Cat Mk. II. Seems to be a popular choice. It's kinda what we're working on at Mechbuilders. Give or take.

If not limited to MechWarrior/BattleTech, I'd go for either Gundam Wing Zero or White Glint (from Armored Core: For Answer).

Locust 6M, because having a 300kph car chase with one of the cars being a mech would be freakin' fantastic.
