much cooler sounding and more general in its application.

Oh.  I thought "mecha" was just a sort-of plural form of that other word.

That's how I've always used it.  One mech, several mecha.

FASA is welcome to come and try to sue me.  "MECH MECH MECH!" Anyone with as
poor a record of respecting IP as FASA has little ground to stand on.

Besides, IMHO, FASA trademarking Mech, is about as futile as TSR trademarking
"Nazi"...
