All I gotta say is this; Woohoo! MECHA!! Mount a HMG or minigun on one arm
and a Firelance on the other and maybe some vehicle rockets on the shoulder
and your set man-o. Almost straight outta Btech, neurohelmet and all, don't
think it lifts enough, really, unless it's really light. Movement of 20, I
guess it can't be made to run, huh? Probably fall over. :)
