infantry size or mobile suit? (Mobile suit is roughly a storey tall, but much moe powerful and versatile)

yes that is a good question, if infantry sized i could supply a Adeptas Astartes armor suit, if Mobile suit sized, a Zaku, Dom, or GM would be the most cost effective MS available.

Since you are currently a Triumvirate protectorate, we will consider tendering a bid, once you make it known what, specifically, your needs are.

Ravenspire: We mostly want Infantry-sized suits.

That's all well and good, but there is no general "infantry" suit in our paradigm. We design according to purpose. Some units will need heavier armor, while others will need greater mobility or support features.

The closest we come to a generic design is non-powered ceramic body armor, which is relatively lightweight and offers considerable protection against small-arms fire and limited protection against high-energy weaponry or heavy arms.
