pictured above: an unnecessarily dusty closeup of a sniper mech's chest window (for better situational awareness i guess?) with the pilot inside visible (he has a grey head)
note: i will try to break up more of this post into comments than previous posts
Show
- tall, agile, but heavy scout mechs, with advanced sensor-heads, big ol' sniper-style cannons, and even modelled interiors with rear hatches. designed to be lightweight for their size with almost skeletal limbs, these have a surprisingly low profile in the field due to their ability to crawl, go prone, and sprint at great speed. this comes at the cost of their fragile, thin limbs, but the upper torso, where the pilot and important machinery are, is still well-protected, meaning vital intelligence can still be retrieved after a mission-kill on the vehicle, if the pilot survives and can evade capture. also equipped to self-destruct on the pilot's command, or on a signal from their command.
Show
- closeup of one of the rear hatches opened, with the pilot inside. the other mech with the grey-headed pilot is identical, except for that the front piece has a window instead of being solid like this one.
Show
- two large mechs with long limbs, big ol' guns, camera pod/sensor 'heads', and radio antennae
Show
- closeup showing the remote sensor head on the front of the hull, and the crew compartment and access hatch at mid-hull, with a large radio tower. this craft is like an armored moving watch tower, armed similarly to the sniper mechs above, designed to take advantage of range during combat and to have an imposing psychological effect on enemies or occupied peoples. long range comms equipment means it can report threats and call in support from anywhere, or operate longer range drones - but this kind of sensor emissions can attract attention as well, meaning this is better suited for defensive and sentry roles rather than scouting or assaults. usually crewed by at least 2 and can a passenger or two, but often deployed with just the pilot in places where threat levels are expected to be low.

Before i forget, here's the white colored faction i meant to post earlier, i headcannon these guys equipment as kind of police or corporate security oriented.
