Those look bad to me. I like the turret on the American one but the legs make it ridiculous and clownish, and the Japanese shouldn't even have good armored vehicles.

I know the American one has stupid legs, but why does the Japanese one have to be well armoured? I mean just because the Japanese didnt have any "good" armoured vehicles doesnt mean they just drive in a truck with infantry support

I don't like the way the Japanese one looks "high-tech". Remember that in real life the Japanese armor divisions were pathetic. True, they *had* tanks, but they were terrible. This should be reflected in-game by giving them weaker armor suit thingies.

Yes, to my look american and japanese walkers looking like transformed tanks, Stuart and Ha-Go. Russian is something what have not analog. IMO all this things cant be named battlesuit. Machinen krieger mush closer to power armour, think, this direction is more possible.

I'm not a fan of mechs, powered suits such as maschinen krieger would be much more tactiaclly viable than oversized stomping tanks.

I don't really care for the legs on the Dust walkers, either. I'm trying to design something with either different legs, or some kind of other thing entirely.

how about a tank with legs then instead if feet tracks, so an elevated tank.

The "tanks" should have Heavy Gear style treaded feet, just because it's awesome.

However walking tanks are a different topic than battlesuits. I see Ive gone off topic as well

Heavy gear is a great example of japanese mecha style. If truely, japanese mecha style so different. IMO something industrial in style of powerloader from Aliens movie can be a prototype of exo suit.
