OK there was never a UNMC Mech in any of the halo books of games
Edit- OK the Cyclops and exoskeleton- but i was thinking something on the scale of Mechwarrior light mech

but would it not be awesome if UNMC had a light Mech on Reach.

A Gauss rifle and Gatling gun on each arm. and a missile racks of the torso

as far as the Story justification goes it could have been some crazy experimental weapon that was develop on reach but unfortunately destroyed when Reach was glassed

Reread Fall of Reach. Specifically the part where Dr. Hasley watches a demonstration by Chief Mendez about the Spartan's Growth in a capture the flag exercise. The marines were wearing exoskelletons which are pretty much the same idea behind mechs. They explain why Exoskeletons have never been a feasible option before the MJOLNIR armor. So if small ones weren't feasible, why would big ones be?

Besides, its easier to make machines that roll instead of walk.

I reckon the SPARTANs themselves are close enough to mechs.

granted, but if the Mech had an on board AI to work in sync with the operator legs could do so much more than treads EX: scarab

impossible is just a word

I agree but not mech the cyclops form halo wars but with machine guns and maybe only for custom game or if in MM easy to hijack some thing to make it balanced

Posting on bungie.net should require that the user has had to have read a chapter book all the way through.

I always loved mechs but I'm not so sure about in Halo.
