3536 Design Project Planning

"Do you envision this axe-wielding machine as a medium mech or a heavy mech?" Ves asked Tifi just as she started to elaborate on her proposal.

"I would love to realize it as a heavy mech, but…"

"An assault unit needs to field mechs that can close in on the enemy in a timely manner."

"Correct, sir. In order to keep the mech mobile enough, it is best to stick with the medium weight class. I can still turn it into a mech that is sturdy enough to undertake the dangerous act of assaulting enemy lines while at the same time providing it with enough offensive power to tear up defensive formations."

"A lancer mech can break apart defensive formations much more effectively." Dulo Voiken remarked. "The greatest advantage is that their shock power is so great that they can punch open holes immediately at first contact. These axemen mechs of yours need time to launch repeat attacks."
