So, I recently, finally, got around to watching the last half of Gundam Seed. And, while not without it's flaws, it's definitely a good series that I enjoyed a great deal.
Naturally, I'm taking another look at the fic I started in that universe, and have even been writing a bit on it.
Since I'm a shameless mech-head, and since at least half the reason I started seriously planning the thing in the first place was to prove that I could come up with more model kits than we have in the real world without ever resorting to the absurd rationalizations Bandai has inflicted on us, I've also been doing a lot of technical planning.
Which, finally, leads into the bit I need help with.
See, in an action-based series like this, a big, tense fight is a vital part of the climactic arc.
At this point, I'm planning to have four main characters actually directly involved... and I don't have enough boss designs for them to face.
And one of them is just the Providence from canon.
The other is at least temporarily tagged the Achilles, and its schtick is defense. Specifically, besides having reactor-fed phase shift armor, its armor is layered with the same kind of ultra-durable ablative material that other suits in this universe carry on their shields: IE, it's proof against pretty much anything short of a capital ship's spinal gun.
So I need at the very least two more 'identifying concepts' for these boss mechs.
Any ideas?
