(...) After a night of pondering, I have found more parts that create movement. I have also thought (any suggestions) that we should have a separate speed and strength number. Some parts are faster than their weight or visa versa. Here is the new (...) (20 years ago, 21-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Okay, so maybe, I am a little interested in this project and Sundays are great relaxing days for me. So I wrote a perl script to calculate the ideal speed and strength variable for each mech type: Humanoid, Reverse Knee and Quad. Here are the (...)

(...) Sweet, three woofs and jumping catfish! I acknowledge your critique about the proportions--the new feet added more visual weight, with really nothing added up top to balance it. But yeah, I'm starting to get into the studless/greebling style. (...) (20 years ago, 21-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Okay, I am back with more information. Speed and Strength ===...=== IMO these two are really inverses of each other. A speedy mech is not strong becuase it lacks the ability to carry enough armor. Now on the other hand a strong mech, because (...) (20 years ago, 21-Feb-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) So I am back with more information. As I have started to think this through I have determined, IMO, that what we are trying to do is score our Mech/Mecha against the figurative "Perfect" Mech in the areas of Articulation, Speed and Strength (...)
