OKAY this is the idea im posting it here because i tweeted on my main twitter instead of my special interest twitter so its public anyways
A LITTLE BACKGROUND TO THIS: i consider tord’s fanon and ‘canon’ red leader designs to exist in separate timelines. so that being said, consider this takes place in a timeline where tords ‘canon’ red leader design is used. in my opinion, this version of the eddsworld universe shows a lot of technological advancements from his design alone - for example, in the fanon red leader timeline, the only reason tord had a robotic arm to begin with was because it was taken from his giant robot, meaning its highly unlikely they could have normally acquired a robotic arm. but in the timeline which uses his canon design, the arms are both shown to be different from each other, and only one was pulled from his robot. theorizing that much more advanced technology is available at this point, the other members could also have robotic enhancements as well
for example, paul supposedly lost his right eye in fun dead, so he could have a robotic eye to replace that. i also imagine red leader would have this as well, because depth perception is a pretty necessary thing if you want to be a soldier.
patrycks enhancements arent as obvious, as the majority of his wounds were sustained on his chest, so instead of having anything replaced, his robotic thing is sort of like a plate of armour that shields his chest from bullets and other deadly things (such as spears, knives, or you know…zombehs)
to talk about my own headcanons a bit, i believe that in the fanon red leader timeline, yanov is a pilot who also worked in first aid, who retired by choice after developing a phobia of flying following a near-death incident with his helicopter. in this timeline, yanov is a pilot of course, but one of his legs was crushed in a helicopter crash and was replaced with a robotic one. in the case of this timeline he was forcibly retired to the medical ward rather than having a choice in the matter
yuu was killed and therefore his body couldnt have any enhancements made to it, so instead his consciousness was completely uploaded to a robotic replica of him. hes considered to be the armys trump card but that doesnt mean he cant die still, so he has to be careful. well placed bullets and other weapons can still damage his system
AK is the only member who has yet to have a serious injury, so nothing is changed about him, but he doesnt go anywhere without robo-yuu so you could consider that to be his external robotic enhancement
