* BeamSpam: The Reds have specialized creatures that can do this ''even with only one of them on the field''. These attacks inflict lots of damage, and are fired so fast that unless you are strafting them, they'll kill you in seconds.
Added DiffLines:
* EnergyWeapons: Your mech can be equipped with laser or plasma weapons, which have unlimited ammo but use your mech's energy to recharge. The Reds have gigantic creatures that can fire lasers that obliterate aircraft and will shred you to pieces in seconds.

* KineticWeaponsAreJustBetter: {{Downplayed|Trope}} - Mechs can equip both kinetic and energy weapons, with each having their own strengths, namely that energy weapons have functionally unlimited ammo since they recharge using your mech's energy, while kinetic weapons have a variety of different effects. That being said, kinetic weapons are ''far'' more versatile than energy weapons, and NATO's heavy artillery is composed of [[MagneticWeapons railguns]] - [[JustifiedTrope after all, lasers can't be used for indirect fire]].

* HopelessWar: It is very clear that the Reds outclass humanity and that if everyone does not unite, they will kill all mankind. And even if they do unite, the chances of survival are still slim.

* HopeSpot: Operation Fire Typhoon sees NATO and the Coalition mass up for a unified attack on the Reds, where both groups will lure the enemy swarms into kill zones and bomb them into oblivion. It seems to work, only for the Reds to reveal they have EnergyWeapons and wipe out ''80%'' of the airforce sent against them.

* SacrificialLamb: Ethan's squadmate and best friend Jake is killed off during Fire Typhoon when a NATO aircraft crashes on him after being shot out of the sky.

''Mecha Knights: Nightmare'' is a 2021 Mecha game produced by Damian Kubiak. It was released on August 3rd, 2021.
Stepping into the shoes of Captain Ethan of Echo Team, the player finds themselves leading NATO forces as they prepare for WorldWarIII with the [[MakeTheBearAngryAgain Russian-lead Coalition]]... only for an unknown army of monsters to show up before the war can even be declared, with said creatures promptly deciding to eat everyone. Now, Ethan and his allies must fight to survive against the new enemies while trying to figure out their origins and how to defeat them.
The game can be purchased on Steam [[https://store.steampowered.com/app/1163870/Mecha_Knights_Nightmare/ here]].
----
* DesignItYourselfEquipment: Every aspect of your mech can be customized, from its weapons, to secondary systems, and even its body parts.
* EnemyMine: The literal existential threat that the Reds pose is enough for NATO and the Coalition (who were literally minutes away from commencing with WorldWarIII in the prologue) to immediately ally together.
* GodzillaThreshold:
** The initial Red outbreak sees the Coalition resort to [[NukeEm nuking their own cities]] to contain them. It fails.
** Once the Reds go public, NATO and the Coalition immediately put aside their differences and ally to face these monsters.
* OutsideContextProblem: The Reds are a group of gigantic (MiniMecha sized at the smallest) creatures that show up with no warning and start eating everyone they can find.
* WorldWarIII: The prologue occurs just as the Third World War (with the US and NATO in one corner and Russia and the Coalition in another) would have begun, only for the Reds to show up and start attacking everyone.
