Sorry for the hiatus (Reason: Had to think about this long & hard), Light mechs could be used to engage other mechs by working in "wolfpacks" while heavier mechs are used as mobile gun platforms. Medium mechs can carry out missions on the frontlines and act as commanders to the light and heavy mechs.

(Spoiler Alert) All of the CHSDF mechs are manned except for a prototype heavy mech. In addition, FGO mech forces have advanced shielding, hinting at the possibility of alien technology being revealed later in the trilogy.
