Umm, not sure as of yet, depends on how much I can automate. I'd say no more than eight though.

In any case it would be a battle of critical thinking and I refuse to fight an unarmed individual.

If you research the ability to, and then design them.

Specialize in tripwire. Really mechs are one of the worst combat ideas ever.

Just one decent blow on their legs and they fall like apples from a tree...

Meh, take a company.

Or move off road and laugh as they get stuck in the mud. Mechs are only got for PR value, really.

Basically the only decemtly effective/realistic mech's I know are batttletech, and that's because they have gyros and are huge.

I'd assume we'd be using battletech-style mechs at any rate :P

EDIT: Or mechs like the GDI Titan. Those are fairly practical as well.

Still  not good enough. The Human bodylayout gives serious problems as soon as you go over 3 meters. Add a bit of mud and all those robots will sink away. Also, their point of gravity is way to high.

And the resources to build one of those are not worth it.
