so imagine a mech team sent to do search and rescue

Except this mech team is one dragon mech and several kobold mechs

Dragon mech does a fly-by scanning the crumbled streets for any heartbeats or infrared signatures, transmits anything of note for the smaller, more agile kobold mechs to investigate in further detail

smaller kobold mechs work in perfect unison to remove debris to look for survivors, evacuate them to an extraction zone to be picked up by the dragon mech in their chassis every however minutes or so, and the kobold mechs come with bright paint and make beeping noises so survivors know they are near and can call out or hold on knowing rescue is near

dragon mech is called in for particularly large debris clutters, can also light campfires for warmth with fire breath in a pinch (kobolds can do that too but may not be practical for larger bonfires)

speaking of which, different elemental breath modules for different uses - heat for lighting campfires or warming up drinks (kobold version is better for warming up drinks without incinerating the cup), ice for creating quick ice packs for bruises

and the one main thing I'm swooning over, kobold mech calling in a flyby and swinging an integrated grappling hook onto the dragon mech to swing past a large gap

this is all because I got hit with a new wave of dragon apto on top of the existing kobold and robot apto so gotta combine both

*Not Actually Every Type.
Something I spent WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much time on lol. This is entirely just riffing off of the many 'kinds' or 'tropes' in mecha design I found. Feel free to suggest more of them.
Might make a document providing examples for each one, but idk. I think most of these are pretty self-explanatory
Tell me your favourites below
Update: Here's the sequel to this chart, cataloguing Kaiju instead!
