MLP?!? (was Re: [SG and DSII] Question about Infantry Walkers)

Is an MLP the same as a SLAM? Also, a size 2 walker? I have only the basic
DSII, which discusses only Class 1 infantry walkers and class 4/5 Combat
Walkers - is the Class 2 a "ouse rule"

There's nothing in the rules actually forbidding walkers of other sizes and I
think that Jon or Mike has said on this list that size 2 or 3 walkers are
perfectly legal.

Yup--I've got some Stone Mountain walkers that look like Size 2 to me,
especially given their weapons loadout seems to be either 2 GMSs or 1 GMS and
one gun of some kind. I still havn't figured out where they would fit in a
TO&E. The only size 1 walkers I could fit were in the Heavy Weapons units of a
Drop Infantry regiment.
