NEO "Beetle-Spider" spider-mech

Designed more for land and less for space though incorporating many aquatic features, this heavy-armored, slower-moving battle mech was another staple of the Principality of NEO army. It saw greater use in the western hemisphere American battle theater. It can take a lot of punishment and is extremely all-terrain. In urban settings, it's ability to crawl up building walls at 40mph gave it a decided advantage over the conventional tanks that were used for urban defense by the Earth Federation. More of these still exist than the 'waterbug' but they are mostly in use by badside bandits and solos. They have excellent aquatic features and can descend to impressive depths.
