Actually, did the surface area math for a Timberwolf/Madcat mech years and years ago and they were (unexpectedly) fine.
They had something like 25% more surface area per foot than a challenger 2 does with both treads.
The bigger issues are that chicken walker legs don’t work to support 60 some odd tons of weight, and that the 10-15m height is a little bIt too noticeable

I don’t even care about the legs or the structure, I care about the ground.
Walkers would obliterate pavement and sink so deep into the mud.
The walkers would need hilarious duck feets
I’m all in on clown shoe mechs
