Context: Think of the Chariot as a giant spider mecha that walks on four towering legs. The main body is sort of flat (not rounded like a spider body), and is covered in weapons that can aim almost 360 degrees.

As 404 resumed his full concentration upon the Force Storm, the Chariot realized its demise.

It understood that it stood no chance of directly surviving the Force Storm which is becoming more powerful second by second. If it remained still and kept its shields on full power, it would die before accomplishing more. It would have to take the offensive.

And so it changed battle plans.

Abruptly, it lowered its ray shields. At the same time, every weapon (that's about 20 or so weapons pods) upon its hundred-meter-tall body fired away. The Battlegroup is devastated (read: 80% of the Clones and almost all the vehicles remaining got exploded) by the retaliation attack, even as the Chariot quickly turns its attention to the other combatants on the map.

A stream (read: 10,000 rounds per second) of 20mm armor piercing incendiary slugs roared out of its half-dozen autocannons at 3000m/s towards Phoenix and Athanatos, as the Chariot fired off its massive scatterguns (read: 20 shotgun barrels each the size of a cruise missile) towards the capital ships in the air.

The Chariot overcharged its plasma torpedo launcher and destroyed the All Terrain Mechanical Commando in a brilliant ball of fire. The fireball engulfed the X-70K Phantom as it passed by, leaving its armor scarred and deformed.

A cloud of fusion rockets headed for Omega and the MiniFoxes, and a single seismic charge flew towards a now undefended 404.

[404] Oh, I have a bad feeling about this.

--

The seismic charge detonated, creating an immense shockwave which sent its target into the nearest wall. Immediately, the Force Storm sputtered and poofed into a cloud of bluish energy.

(Just saying: Even if nobody assists in the attack, the Chariot is going to die soon.)
