Hello newcomer.

While having  (semi-)autonomous capability is totally okay, if it lacks room for a pilot, or is designed primarily for autonomous operation, then it doesn't count as a mech, but a combat robot. Also, wow these things remind me of Warhammer 40K Imperial Knights and Titans.

Well as I said earlier, "this is platinum pie in the sky," also a lot of mechs would be best suited to large targets or large groups. I don't think I've made any walking AA platforms or seen any, but there aren't really any characters, from me at least, that focus on the AA role.

Atlas is the only Kingdom with a standing military, and they have airships which they can apparently keep aloft for a long time, so ground vehicles don't make a lot of sense. They make even less sense when the majority of Grimm are land based, and only the flight capable Grimm have shown ranged attack capabilities beyond throw debris and comrades, which wouldn't get that much range.

Bullheads are more like helicopters, but maybe a bit cheaper. Only terrorists and/or groups with good funding have been seen using them. We do see a lot of cars and the like when the Paladin is running, though those belong to civilians
