I had a mech dream for the first time a few days ago and I finally get it. I used to think mechs were stupid and tanks were undervalued, but mechs aren't about replacing tanks...they're about replacing infantry. A mech is, essentially, a giant, armored infantryman, with the advantages of both a tank and an infantryman combined, and the disadvantages of neither. In a mech, you really do feel the thrill of combat, of taking cover, throwing grenades, suppressive fire, and fire and maneuver, all those wonderful things that make infantry combat so much fun. But at the same time, it's not ruined just because a tank crawls in, because you have more than enough firepower and armor to deal with it.
