anyway, powered armor is more practical plus it's cheaper and easier to develop compared to a multiton legged vehicle. more know-how is invested on the latter because it involves a lot of factors with protection and locomotion being the most significant. powered armor removes(or reduces) the locomation problem.

but seriously though, we would most likely end up with something like the kind of powered armor Robert Heinlein envisioned for his Starship Troopers novel.
we have a similar discussion in the Front Mission section of <a href='http://moshpit.fullborg.com/sandbox2/index.php' target='_blank'>The Moshpit</a> .
