Description
Are you sick of being a turret chauffeur? Tired of facing emplaced heavy weaponry with small arms? Bored of flitting around your enemies in a flying plastic cube? Well, these HVs might be the solution for you.

These mechs are all survival ready with CPU, mass & volume, and block limits in mind. Since they're a bit taller than the average small block vessel, I've included several dropships to help you get a few of them around the galaxy.

The standard docking system is pretty simple. MC-format HVs need to fit into a 7 large block-wide cube-shaped mech bay (14 meters across). Docking pads should be oriented on their back to latch onto blocks in the middle of the wall behind the mech. A person standing on these blocks should then be able to board the mech docked to them just by jumping. A ladder running down the front of these blocks to the bay floor can be used for shorter mechs that need to be climbed down into. Taller mechs, on the other hand, must themselvse have platforms going up their backs for players to climb.
