It's 2800 feet tall... the character "Erde" was 12 feet tall, and Ysolda in her Essence Armor was 20ft tall.

Killing a mech that size... just to kill two people that are LITERALLY insignificant by comparison... makes ZERO sense whatsoever. As for killing a planet with it? It had like 6,000 fucking doom-missiles, a laser cannon that could carve MILES into the ground, and god-fucking-knows what else. Even without the missiles, it could STOMP its way through a city, mash skyscrapers up to 1km tall under its hands or feet, ram anything taller than that, laser-murder anything that got in its way, drill-hand shit to death, etc...

Nuking it to take out two people... makes as much sense as me drowning an ant-mound in my own blood. 

Literally... if he was sent there to wipe out that planet, he could have done it with relative ease (minus Skall's GM character who is MIA due to Skall being gone). So the course of action he took after >I< was called on shit and explained what I was doing... SCREAMS of "yeahfuckthatshithavefunbeingnukedbye." metagaming.
