Yes, your point? Steel is made from iron, and is still considred a ferrous metal.
I rather strongly doubt that you'd want to use simple iron in a prosthesis given how quickly and easily the pure metal corrodes, it would have to be alloyed with something, and galvanized or stainless steel would be an appropriate choice.
Besides, iron is sooooft, bends too damn easy, that's the main reason railroads never caught on until steel was able to be widely produced to make rails.

Eviscerator has a point. Iron alone would quickly corrode inside Tragedy. Since her strength comes from blood circulation, one mighty flex of her powers and the bands would snap.
Tragedy is not designed to last more than another year (spoiler) and the parts are designed to wear out so they can be easily replaced and at the same time be compatible with her physiology. So a magnetic and non-toxic alloy is what she needs to complete her power band.

No, the Ferro Fibrous from CBT is quite literally Iron strands, it's not your standard Iron as its processed in such a way, and it is soft for a reason, to take gauss hits etc, the strands are also ment to be part of the cusioning effect. They also have to do it at zero gravity, the style it's done with, and the certain kind of Iron it is makes it such an effective armor which can effectivly stop a giant rail launched projectile (Gauss rifle) dead in its tracks. They do alloy it with something else, not sure what metal anymore.
There's no sucha thing as Ferro-Fibrous in real life though, yet.

Right, and Tragedy is NOT a robot. The design is meant to support, not suppress. in the scenario you're describing, if a projectile were to strike her then the only surviving part of her would be the prosthetic.
She's only 5'6". She's designed like The Incredible Hulk but she's still flesh and blood.

Negative. Ferrofibrous armor is woven of strands of steel and titanium alloy. It also depends upon the thickness of the armoring layers. Ferrofibrous armor also doesn't have as much 'give'a s you suggest, otherwise it would unduly stress the framework of the mech and risk damage to the internal components before the armor was even breached. Though, the ferrous weaving does help distribute the heat of, and make it more resistant to, directed energy weapons.
I keep noticing that you refer to the iron as being naught but iron, yet processed specially? Negative. Unless the iron is pure, it is no longer iron, but an alloy, most likely radiation hardened and crystalline steel.
I've read the BT novels and tech readouts, the Blood of Kerensky trilogy is most enlightening about the superior Clan tech. Also a damn good read.
BT armor is at the very least steel, and there are lots of references to components that amount to lots of carbon and boron, both of which are *massive* thermal heat sinks.. And putting titanium on a mech, well that would make a Gauss slug, go through you, Mech Armor is ment to be ablaitive and Titanium is not ablaitive, infact all of BT armor is better as stopping penetration than destruction, which Titanium is the opposite (Tell me the last time Titanium stopped a DU Penetrator form an A-10).
Ferro Fibrous has just as much give as I suggest, cause it very little cracks off, things like Gauss Rounds crack it though but thats a gauss round. Plus the problem with any steel in the BT would be if you want to penetrate 30mm of steel armor, you can either melt through it, which will take a great deal of energy, or you can fire a .50 cal through it, which will take only 12 KJ or so of energy, which would be completely unnoticable if it was coming from a thermal weapon.
AKA it's an Iron alloy which was stated up there, not Titanium steel. We could go on and on about this, but all TRO's point to their armor is out of this world and revolutionized combat completly and utterly. Titanium and steel are out of the question, as is iron, as is tungsten or any metal.

Nope. If you'd read the novels, you'd know that the armor is affixed in plates. It's not a single solid mass. This serves as ablative defenses quite nicely, as well as facilitating repair and replacement.
It's a case of engineering complimenting metallurgy.
Besides, an M-2 will not penetrate 30mm or armor. The Ah-64 is armored against anything up to a 20mm round, and it certainly doesn't carry that much armor mass.
Besides, 'standard' BT armor is ferroceramic, ie layers of ceramic composite and steel, basically the chobham armor used in modern day tanks. Antiquated by BT standards, but still effective.
And I think you ought to look up the Mackie, the first battlemech conceived and check up on its development. It's not that their armor is out of this world, it's simply that they finally perfected the radiation bombardment of metals to harden them.
I'm not clear on the science exactly, but apparently bombarding metals with protons and neutrons makes them more resistant to damage and corrosion. It's a technique still being pioneered, as are artificial muscle fibers.
Obviously, I have fond hopes for real-life mechs, even if it isn't in my lifetime.
