Despite the moniker of "drones" the Mechanopod forces are not unthinking force. Even the basic Drones are capable of independent decision making. This does mean they need leaders and indeed have some sort of command structure.
The head of this is the Overlord, a huge machine of combat power and battlefield analytic capability. Using their powerful eye beam to cut swaths of destruction and an aura that disrupts both electronics and organics in a wide area they are physically imposing, not to mention their ability to calculate battlefield conditions and get their forces responding appropriately.
Under them the Command Pod leads smaller groups and behaves as an extension to the Overlord as well as an independent leader. Often supported by Observers that relay battlefield conditions and protected by Shield Drones against most attacks.
Additional command level support pods come in the form of Battery Pods, which boost the attack power of nearby Drones as well as Tesla Pods which both act offensively while at the same time making close engagement with nearby Drones difficult as their entire bodies become enveloped in electrified fields.
