[X] Medium Infantry Fighting Vehicle: Nemean
-[X] With over a millennium of improvements on the technologies used by the Federation in constructing machines. An alternative to the Ranger was desired, made to handle intense battles with more rugged armor and survivability. The Nemean keeps the Ranger's trademark hover technology for its use in traversing terrain, but is a far larger and bulkier machine. It's larger size able to carry at most two squads of infantry or less depending on the size of some species, offering them decent protection due to the thick layer of armor on the sides and newly implemented Sheild Generator covering the front of the Nemean. Of course it still relies on mostly the same weapons as the Ranger, with Multi-Lasers and Hunter-Killer missiles, with a third option granted by it's increased size for a Heavy Bolter gunner position on the back for supporting infantry pushes or protecting Tanks from enemy attack.

My attempt at a Medium Infantry Fighting Vehicle, please tell me if it needs some tweaking, I'm open to suggestion
 
[X] Plan: A Focus on Modularity

Also tangent I get tired of people think everything should be based on the same chassis and modular
Cause you don't want your app to have the same armor and fuel costs as a tank
I like this plan Cause only the light vehicles are modular

The Mobile Forge: Hephaestus

The Hephaestus is a massive vehicle rivaling the largest of armored vehicles and transports. It is not a fighter however instead it serves the purpose of logistics. It rolls behind the main army upon dual heavy treads gathering scrap and other materials to work with. Internal factories make use of advances in automation and manufacturing to assemble all manner of parts, weapons, and even whole small vehicles within its cavernous bays. Tended to by tech priests and servitors at all times to ensure production never falters in quality or expediency. This beast is not defenseless however mounting heavy armor along with an armored plow and its sheer mass allowing it to crush obstacles and foes alike. A system of defensive lasers and slug throwers protect it from all angles alongside a system of servo skulls to monitoring and resource collection.

The Hygeia Medical Vehicle.

The Hygeia is a mobile hospital the size of roughly the same size as the Hephaestus designed to travel behind the main army upon its hover systems. Allowing it to bypass terrain issues and quickly retreat to protect its patients. Teams of trained medics are active at all times with the finest medical care the federation can provide on the battlefield. To better shelter its patients the vehicle is equipped with medium grade armor and a void shield. A system of laser weapons protects it from attackers at range buying time for retreat or support to arrive.

Here's my upgraded version of the Anansi. Mind adding it to your plan?

[X] Anansi Secundus (AKA Anansis) Light Walker
-[X] The successor to the venerable Anasi Light Walker, the Anansi Secundus pays homage to the original yet is a whole different beast altogether, owing to the vastly improved technologies and techniques available to the Federation. Slightly larger and more robust than the original Anansi, Anansi Secundus (also shortened into Anansis by the troops) is a one person light walker meant for combat in urban and rough terrain. While the limited technology when the Anansi was created meant that it required a two person crew, Anansis is instead equipped with a Automata system to assist the pilot in various tasks and make it possible for the walker to be utilized effectively by a single pilot. In essence, the Anansis can do everything the original Anansi can do, but better with a couple of additional features. Stronger, faster, more heavily armored. Keeping to the original design, the Anansis is equipped with an all energy weapon loadout centered around a plasma cannon atop its body and a pair of heavy multilas for anti-infantry and light target duties. The Anansis retains the urban 3D maneuvering capability of the Anansi via improved grappling hooks and climbing capacity. To top it off, the Anansis is also capable of being equipped with high-frequency blades to allow the vehicle melee capability against enemy vehicles and heavy combatants.

-[X] Superheavy tank: Dominus
--[X] The Dominus is a battlefield-dominating behemoth built to fight against baneblades and win. Often referred to as a "warship on treads," it's built around a plasma annihilator cannon as its primary weapon, with multiple missile pods and Gatling Blasters as backup weapons. It tends not to worry about terrain, as its size and bulk is capable of grinding most any kind of terrain underneath it's five sets of treads. The armor is closer to starship armor, and it is protected by a full-on void shield and an onboard shrine to the star child.

We don't need a fusion of a Stormblade and a Fellblade. Like, I get it, Command and Conquer Super Tank, we all love it, but really though: Why do we need anti-Superheavies units... when we have a metric-shit-ton of Knights and Armigers? Not to mention the Navy and our holy Walkers?

A Battle-Carrier-Landship is something that can support the wider army with artillery and airstrikes.

Fair enough. Added another one:
-[X] Superheavy tank: Kraken
--[X] The Kraken is a heavy treaded vehicle, slightly smaller than the Dominus, and built around magnetic "catch" and "catapult" systems designed to allow it to grab friendly aircraft, bring them into internal hangers for refueling, rearming and light repairwork, then launch them back into the air to continue their fire support missions. It also contains banks of antiaircraft and indirect fire support weapons, including artillery and mortars. It is not designed to be on the front lines, though it is heavily armored and does have weapons to defend itself in case of breakthroughs.
