Mech/Legends

Mech was a blanket term for any type of unit the purpose of which was to serve as the backbone of a military ground strike. While the name "mech" itself implies a mechanical origin, the so-called mech-class could in fact refer to anything from trained animals to top-notch machines. The emergence of mech units coincided with the development of stronger anti-infantry measures, such as heavy weapons.Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds 
Mechs were either wheel vehicles, tanks, modified domesticated animals or robotic walkers that tried to imitate animals, mainly developed by the late Republic and later by the Galactic Empire. Mechs were both assault units and transports of infantry.
Known mechs have been the AAT, the AT-ST. Animals such as Fambaas were used in war instead of mechs by some races.
