Mech

A mech is a common fighting vehicle across the Pearlescent Expanse, most of which are intended as primary offensive weapons in combat. Mechs are typically humanoid in shape, and are outfitted with armour, weapons, and often other utility gear. However, many exceptions to the conventional shape of a mech exist.

The term "mech" is largely unused, except for as a generic term. Every major faction in the Expanse has its own preferred term to describe a vehicle that roughly fits the description of a mech:


 * Banner Post: Couriers (common units) and Dive-Suits (specialised units for Singing Deep traversal)
 * Dodonan Tribunal: Automata
 * Nadezhdan Exiles: Rig (cheaper machines, normally for civilian use) and Frame (almost always military)
 * Peacock Conglomerate: Platform or Suit
 * Thousand Moons' Creed: Rover
 * Tyranon Dynasty: Knecht
 * Universal Choir: Chime (common units) and Bell (specialised units used by Psalms)
