It really is. I was looking at every mech and hell I could have sworn the Cicada was bigger than the Stalker. I don't own one but I was expecting a monstrosity like the atlas, somethng to fear. But he's a wee mech. Even started comparing cockpit sizes. Sheesh

It's precisely as tall as a centurion.

Easily mistaken for a K2 Catapult from behind.

Is it really suppose to be that small canon wise? Comparing to other assaults.

It looks in scale to me. At least, how I pictured it. Mostly, the problem is with centurions being too big, and the really, really fat dragons.

Mechs (height)
Light => Commando (25 ton) = 9m
Medium => Enforcer (50 ton) = 12m
Heavy => Grashopper (70 ton) = 14m
Assault => Banshee (95 ton) = 15.2m

So there's not much difference between heavies and assaults. Stalkers are basically buffed Catapults without the JJ.

I didn't even know I was shooting at them from a distance. I thought they were Catapults. It's kinda easy to move out of their firing arc if you're fast and close enough though, unlike Catapults.
