DRONE
GAEA
BABOON
GRIZZLY
-none-
F73H
KONGOH
ANANDA
MEDUSA
ANGLER (or was it the Ankou? Anyway, its the back-booster)
LADON
LGL
R2
NIX
Okay, I was intrigued with putting a back-booster on a tank to aid distance control, and here's what I came up with. Upon playing for a while, I noticed that I've been using this design like a defensive biped. I boost-hop, fall back, and take to the air while using the back-booster to accelerate my reverse movement. I use the LGL like the RL, the LADON like an RS that charges, and the R2 + NIX like a standard close range weapon system, all of which is supplemented by the GAEA's EOs.
Armor's pretty below average for a tank, but its EN defense is something to look out for. EN efficiency and heat are managed pretty well, but the KONGOH's low battery capacity may hurt its offensive capability and mobility.
I really don't know where I'm headed with this design, it lacks the firepower IMO to be classified as a tank, and its mobility isn't really like that of any other unit. The only thing special about this is the back booster which somewhat helps preventing opponents from encircling this AC. It still can be out turned, but not as easy without the supplementary boosters.
I think I'm trying to much to make this design work...
