I was thinking about this the other night. I'm sure everyone has seen these "Mech Warrior" games and some of us are even awed at the idea that this is probably quite possible with today's technology. Image that. A 20 foot tall mech warrior walking towards the enemy to annhilate them. I'm thinking that Mech Warriors aren't all that much science fiction nowadays. Can anyone tell me thier opinions on this matter? I mean... just think of it.. Not only could we make awesome fighting machines, imagine the psychological affect it would have on the enemy to see a legion of mech warriors bearing down on them. I imagine that would be quite a sight. Does any one have any thoughs about the possibility of this in today's armed forces? Technologically I believe we could make some bad-ass sh*t like that.

And we'd have to take them out of service the first time a badguy got stepped on.... Inhumane they'd call it [:|] 1. Don't look conspicuous; it draws fire. 2. Never draw fire; it irritates everyone around you. |
