I dont care how many legs you want to put on it, but if you want to put it on legs at ALL, you first have to explain how they might provide ANY advantages over the infinitely simpler and more durable tank tread.
we are slower than a cat, wich is 20 times smaller than us
why?
legs.
A roach can run THAT fast because it has 6.
The number of legs greatly enhances the speed.
The unique advantages of legs are
-manouverability
-ability to explore extreme terrains

with our current tech, it is counterproductive though. But im sure that it will be interesting later
