The space type crusader mkll is faster and an overall improvement over mkl with the mkll used to intercept and attack where the mkl used to defend ships

The first space mech developed by the empire, not super fast but maneuverable after aether they were turned into additional GMR 05 Crusader mkl

These are prototypes that led to the GMR 05 Crusader mkl

GMR 01 was a proof of concept

GMR 02 was a refinement

GMR 03 and 04 were trying to be fast and armoured lead to 03 to go boom if it pushes the engine too hard and 04 is too slow with under powered engine

Feel free to give them nick names

Fun fact 03 and 04 are based on unused crusader mkll concept art

United Alliances is a government of all of earth they established space colony ( city sized space station) and colonies Mars in UA 125 (UA named after when United Alliances was founded) the Requiem Empire was founded on Mars UA had control but RE did everything they eventually succeeded but had to shear minerals to UA

So in UA 158 the Requiem Empire had several strikes on the earth attacking cities when Kai (the main character of my animation) is 16. The first year was small skirmishes with the Empires mechs being very effective the second year UA 159 the alliance created there first 4 mechs (Alpha Beta Delta and Gamma) entered combat halfway through the year. Kai became a soldier at 17 and got to pilot a mech after several battles his team was wiped out leaving him missing both legs half his face and an arm. Third year UA 160 combat on earth began alliance was out matched by the Empires new ground mechs this is where development of the Epsilon began it was completed and Kai was the pilot after a couple battles the Empire realised the danger and found the base the Epsilon and sciences who made it were and sent strike team this is the beginning of the animation. The empire attacks scientists escape epsilon 1 destroyed animation end

This is the lore so far

a retrofit of the Gamma made to recover damaged mechs in the field

the Marchosias is and experimental close combat mech designed for quick fast strikes with it's demon breath system a computer which uses several vents to cool down the reactor rapidly for fast strikes with full power but it takes a couple seconds before and after ( it's inspired by breathing techniques in demon slayer) it has a shield not pictured sword and on each arm blades on chains

the Epsilon is an experimental mech and the main characters mech of my mech animation Requiem Of The Ages (ROTA)

it's is designed for close combat fast agile armoured strong able to take out enemies fast with brute force it's a shock trooper it's armed with nucle spikes, sword, rocket rosé mace, hand held beam cannon a prototype weapon and a under slung naval cannon used as a extra punch aka shot near point blank into the pilots

the main character is a very aggressive and brutal fighter using this to take on a whole force
