A subset of the Real Robot mecha genre, stompy mecha distinguish themselves from other Real Robots by being much slower, clumsier, or otherwise [i]weightier[/i]. While typical Real Robots behave and fight like ground-bound fast attack craft, stompy mechs behave and fight more like tanks or battleships.

Expect complex and laborious [[cockpit|control schemes]], excessive [[gritty|grittiness]], and a distinct lack of [[mechs_with_hands|hands]].
