Lancer mechs best mechs, because you have the full range from the closest we have to real-life mechs today but scaled up to tank with legs to mecha-ninja to whatever the fuck HORUS is doing and they all coexist in the same setting

And those are just suggestions. Your mech, as long as it conforms to a pattern-group (read: has bits from one license or another) can look like literally anything. Wanna play a Tokugawa but it's Blade Liger? You can do that. Wanna do a Sunzi that's literally Big O? Go for it.

Exactly! When I ran a game for a few of my friends, the art they chose for their mechs included some Gundam-ish stuff, an official bit of Lancer art, a tweaked version of an official bit of Lancer art, and just a plain old AT-ST

Death's Head is the best though

That's an odd way to spell Drake.
