บท 5699: Auxiliary Mech Focus

Auxiliary mechs generally received much less appreciation from the mech community than more direct combat-oriented machines.

Mech pilots generally wanted to become the hotshots that beat up their opponents and saved the day.

However, auxiliary mechs served their purpose in battle. There were many roles that mechs could perform that would otherwise weaken and burden a combat mech.

Ves was not entirely unfamiliar with support-oriented mechs. He had designed a number of them including the Blessed Squire Hexer-exclusive heavy supportive knight mech, the Buzzy Bee commercial light ECM and communication mech, the Cherub Hexer-exclusive communication mech, the Bright Boy Hexer-exclusive ECM mech and the Light Hunter Vandals-exclusive scout mech.

The fact that most of his support mechs ended up getting used by the Hexers was a reflection of their greater use and integration of machines that depended on others for protection.
