Of course there is also the term Herc. Refering to a design concept found in the Earth Siege/Star Siege Universe. They are more closely related to the Mech of Mechwarrior fame than to the Mecha designs of the Japanese Anime series. I specialize in (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hmm...As far as I was aware Mech was singular and not indicative of a specific style; with Mecha being the plural. Ye Olde Merriam-Webster's dictionary lists Mech. as being the abbreviated form of Mechanical or Mechanics. Either way though, Lego or (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Eric and Geordan are right, according to my what I know. A mecha is pretty much a Anime creation, something like a Mobile Suit or Gundam (MS Gundam) or a Labor (Patlabor). A mecha is a term from Battletech/Mechwarrior, and is short for a Battlemech (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

For the best answer, look at Geordan's and Eric's replies. The two terms really describe two different robot "camps". MECH is almost always used to describe robots from U.S. games such as Mechwarrior, and Battletech (made by FASA (URL) The singular (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

One would use the term 'mech' when one is refering to the design of another builder. The term 'mecha' comes into usage when in reference to a specific style that the 'mech' has (i.e. piloted, worker, assult, ect.) Does that clear things up for you? (...)

Hey Rosco! I would say the the terms "Mech" and Mecha" are the same except for the sytle of the Robot in question. Mark Nuemann put it best by saying : Mechs are lumbering giant war machines with grease and oil stains. Mecha are beautiful sculpted (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Mark Neumann has a very good explanation on his page: (URL) = anything here: (URL) = (URL) a mech is more like Battletech, with a large, bulky profile while mecha are usually more sleek in comparison. I'm guessing that the plural form of "mech" (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
