In the present case, a mech is a shorthand for "Mechwarior" in a game named
Battletech.
They are gient, piloted, vaguely humanoid battle machines. Most are bipedal, but some
are
quadrupedal. They are equiped with a variety of SF weapons like laser and particle
pulse beams. They
can also have rockets, some canons and possibly machin guns. One is even equiped with
a mighty axe!
The original game was played with pen, paper and miniatures. There exist some
computer, real time
adaptations.
