* In ''[[Super Robot Wars W]]'', units could have Support Request on top of their Support Attack (Friendly adjacent unit gets to make a followup attack) and Support Defense (Friendly adjacent unit can [[Taking the Bullet|Take The Bullet]]), which allowed them to call a Support Attack or Defense from a unit left in reserve.
