History

-...

Once two of general Ironhands finest creations, prior to his defection to the Conglomerate, the Widow and Seraph was Ironhands first two mechs built before he defected. Since he was initially approved to fully fund his cybernetic army, one of his priority projects was the creation of a super-heavy robot for heavy assault purposes and a multipurpose battle droid in case his opponents have more speed and air support.

The Seraph was designed for head-on assaults and devastation. Armed with a laser cannon mounted on its right hand, a missile launcher mounted on its left hand that fires a barrage of six Patriot missiles. With an AI piloting it.

The Widow was designed for quicker hit-and-run tactics and striking from unexpected angles. Armed with two railguns, a patriot missile battery, and a built-in 3D Printer to create spider mines, high-explosive intelligent mines that will walk up to enemies and detonate itself. The mech's AI is purposely made to be a female because as Ironhand quoted to the press: "the Seraph needed a girlfriend". Strangely enough, the Widow's AI was rumored to start having some sort of human-like feelings for the Seraph's AI. If that's true, that means some sort of new tide of AI development will soon be revealed...

Both units are escorted by a "Gate Guardian" drone armed with twin Hellfire missile launchers, twin sniper cannons, and a point defense laser which are used to intercept missiles fired at the Seraph, as well as suicidal aircraft.

But with Ironhands defection the Aquilans would have terminated the Seraph and Widow, as Ironhand had taken the advanced AI with him and the Aquilans considering the maintenance of both too expensive. Until Task Force Eve stepped in and proposed that they were to be piloted by a human instead.

Though it took years of brainstorming. Eventually, the Aquilans was able to make the Seraph and Widow pilotable by human by combining both units into a unit that can transform between them.
