With that machine you could take care of elderly zoo animals, or help people park cars by lifting them into place. Edited by lamna, Jun 29 2009, 02:54 PM.

No!!! The Giant Killer Mecha was invented to help mankind not to destroy it! Some kind of virus might be helpful. If you could release a virus that only killed a specific plant you could completely decimate the weeds in your garden without pesticides and leave closely related desirable plants untouched. |

That's more akin to a suit of armor, I was thinking more along the lines of a human-shaped tank. |

Destroying the enemies food supply would be useful. But you might wipe out your own. |

Ummmmm... yeah. Yes that is true. I had an idea similar to that, but the problem is that a mechanic leg based on hydraulic systems or mechanical joint analogues provide weak points. A single hit by an RPG and the whole thing falls, and the driver is probably captured. |

Indeed, those kinds of things would be very vulnerable to heavy weapons, unless you so burdened them with armour they could not move. |

Yeah! Hey, if the bot was big enough, just about anything couldn't get through its armor. Goliath Mecha-Emperor Scorpion/Ballistic Nuclear Launching Site! |

I wonder if there is a way to create modern heated shot? |

Heating a round does nothing to what it does. But if you added an incendiary layer of napalm, or another volatile substance, it could, or eh... might, start a fire where ever it exploded. |

That was the point of heated shot, but I suppose that is what incendiaries do already. Would a modern Floating battery be of any use? If you took a ship and covered it in Tomahawk launchers would that be of any use? |

I've always wanted to see an anti-matter gun in combat. Assuming we could make enough anti-matter, we could literally destroy any part of the enemy's body that is of equal size to the anti-matter bullet. Not sure how plausible that is, but it would be cool. |
