[member="Gir Quee"] or anyone judge who happens by, tagging you Gir cause you've done most of my vehicles, if you don't mind. I had a question on something I will be doing and I want to ensure I don't submit to the wrong section.
So, its going to be a 'mech suit', I suppose would be the best way to describe it, and I wasn't sure if I should submit it into Vehicles or Technology. The reason I am hesitating is the Power Armor vs Personal Walker line. I am leaning towards vehicle for two reasons 1. Power Armor, and Exoskeletons, enhance the abilities of the wearer because, at the end of the day, its still the wearer doing all of it. The 'suit' I will be making does all of the work and the person in it is actively piloting it. 2. The weapon systems are hard mounted onto the 'suit'. It isn't like, say, power armor where, while it may have its own weapons, they tend to be designed to allow the user to pick up and use weaponry like they normally would.
But, on the flip side, the line between moving themselves and piloting is thin because the suit is only about twice as large as a person, meant to have them inside controlling it and when they move X body part, the suit moves. So I can see that being a candidate for power armor instead of personal walker.
Anyways, just wanted to get this clarified so as to not waste anyone's time by submitting it in the wrong location.
