Or just add legs for an instant Maschinen Krieger figure?

Overview: Not a widespread 'mech by any means, nevertheless, Moskitos are to be commonly found among units garrisoning cities and other large urban areas.
Capabilities: Developed as a recon and patrol platform for urban areas, while speed is important to the design's philosophy , equally so is firepower , along with a low heat output .
Deployment: Rarely found outside of the Lyran Commonwealth , the Moskito is widely deployed among LCAF units defending cities and other urban areas . Used on the outskirts of such places , Moskitos will screen heavier units deployed closer in to the centre of such cities , and also to detect the route of advance , and numbers and types of enemy forces . Once engaged, they will use their SRMs to harass their enemies , using hit-and-fade attacks . Once their heavier comrades join the battle , they will switch to attacking the enemy's flanks and rear . Any enemy infantry and light vehicles will be dealt with by means of their twin machine guns .
cheers ,
Robin .
