    GENTLEMEN DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR ZAKU IS?

    POSSIBLY OVER MUCHO GRANDE?

    OH WHO AM I KIDDING I'LL NEVER BE OVER MUCHO GRANDE.

    We last left our diminished band of heroes back in Salina Cruz. After causing a m-m-m-monster kill combo with a single bullet to a tanker full of rocket fuel we waited in ambush for a retaliation that never came.

    Then the Prancer sent the following signal...

    >"Squads 1 and 2 stand down, Squads 3 and 4 remain on patrol. Atmospheric and battlefield conditions finally allowed us to get a stable lasercomm message off to Zeonic Central command. The situation is like this..."

    "Zeonic Divisions have moved up from their landing positions and are currently mounting an assault on the Federal Headquarters for North America in California and New York. NY is expected to surrender before the night is over, California is putting up heavier resistance. Also, we've been given clearance to ressuply, our engineering corpsmen are going to investigate the HLV site, if there are any working units, were to send them up where they will be loaded with what 2nd Line Reservist MS assets are available, plus extra fighter planes and then return here."

    You stay in your defensive positions, as the engineers drive up and start inspecting the HLV's.
    (After the Zaku tanks, now outfitted with water-hoses, put out the fires.)
    After about half an hour, another message is broadcasted.

    "Now hear this. Now hear this. After inspection, two HLV's are in working condition as well as the SHVL. We have re-opened contact with command and they have revised our orders. The Prancer will unload as much of it's Ammo stock as it has remaining, and then load itself into the Super Heavy Vehicle Lifter, it will then be replaced with another standard model Land Cruiser and then return. This will extend the operation time to 7 hours total. The town and the drop zone MUST be held until then. Ammo reloads will be dispensed by the Zaku Tanks.

    Don't worry about Zolomon, not only does he have two Heat Hawks already, he's specifically customised his Zaku to allow him to do so.

    He chooses to swap out his Bazooka for an MG, since he's getting kind of tired of running out of ammo after four shots.

    One of the other Squads takes an all magella loadout, they'll be close artillery support, pop a green flare if you want them to bombard on your position.

    The Prancer has rigged up a makeshift minovsky particle emitter onto a Luggun, which will flying overhead, bombarding the area with particles. If AA becomes a problem it will have to land.

    IF THE LUGGUN DIES YOU WILL RAPIDLY LOSE MINOVSKY PROTECTION.

    The Prancer has moved up and is currently loading itself up into the SHLV, the door that you performed axe related work on having been repaired...

    After loading up, the HLV's and the SHVL take off on giant plumes of fire, streaking into the sky.
    If the Mexican army didn't know you were here before, they certainly do know.

    It is 5:00 am, 13/03/0079, you have to defend the town for seven hours, until midday. You expect the entire mexican army to come from the north or the south, it really depends on where exactly they were planning to make their stand against you had you taken the land route.

    Dawn will be in an hour, what sort of defensive measures do you suggest?

    >Also, continue with the barricades if possible.

    Several of the Zaku Tanks and Combat Engineers who stayed behind are dragging tanks frames away, and will weld them together at primary throuroughfares into the town and chockepoint roads in the mountains.

    Whilst you lack booby traps, your engineering corps start making old school traps, such as concealed pitfall traps and deadfall traps.
    Just in Mobile Suit scale. A pair of Zaku squadrons your's included help out as well. Dawn is 20 minutes away, the enemy is surely on the horizon.
    No word yet from the circling Lugguns on air forces or ground forces, but they are flying low so as not to make them an easy target, and the mountains are blocking long range sensors.

    At Six, dawn comes, and the sun begins to rise over the mountains. With it come the dust trails of incoming enemy armour.
    The Lugguns report three full battalions of tanks advancing on your fortified position from the south and the north.

    There are reports of incoming planes, three squadrons of Fly Manta's and a one Squadron of Depp Roggs.

    1 Zaku squad as close artillery support.

    4 Zaku Tanks acting as Ammo Tenders

    A small amount of Mechanised Infantry, which are holing themselves up in various buildings across the city if the enemy break through the first defence line - like those infantry from THAT mission in MW2:Mercs.

    You know the one.

    Air forces: 2 Lugguns, 1 Luggun with Minovsky Emmitter.
    They will be landing soon so as not to get picked off by the eneamy air forces.

    4 AA Tanks. Operating in pairs in the north and the south entrances.

    Well let's go with the same loadout he was talking about.

    Split the forces between north and south, with the arty north and us south.

    Ready attacks for large grouped kills. Attacks of opportunity. If they get into range soon enough, toss a grenade into as big a group as we can find.

    Since we have our MG, use a single shot firing mode and "snipe" as well as possible while we've got distance between us and them. Once that space closes, switch to MG burst fire. Conserve ammo.

    Go for whichever forces get closest. Land or air. Focus on air as much as possible though. Land forces have to enter through chokepoints which we've hopefully done a good job of sealing off. The air forces can strike anywhere.

    >Split the forces between north and south, with the arty north and us south.

    The other two squads travel to the north entrance to the city, and you travel south. You take up defensive positions behind the barricade of tanks and collapsed buildings you've set up. About a hundred meters in front of you is a concealed pitfall trap.
    It's rigged to launch flares calling for an artillery strike when activated. Hopefully the Tanks will just barge into it and open themselves up to a heavy counterattack.

    You are just able to get yourself into position when the tanks come into view. You take careful aim with your rifle, checking for range and making guestimates for elevation.

    The three of you fire. The other two's shot's go wild, but your's manages to aim true and you see a plume of fire as a tank explodes.

    The tanks begin to spread out and pick up speed. A couple of them start firing, but they are too far away to hit.
    You all fire another shot each. Zolomon misses again, and although Strauss hit's you see the shell ricochet off it's armour, he must have hit at just the wrong angle.
    Your shot goes mostly wide, barely managing to clip a gun barrel, you see it warp straight upwards bent and usuable but the tank keeps coming.

    They will reach the trap shortly.

    How can you not be able to aim, you're sitting in a super high tech weapons platform with some kind of crazy teched out gun. All your aiming is done with cameras and computers, in addition, it's not like the suit is moving due to you breathing, so your shots should go where you point them.

    The tanks are still accelerating towards you. At this pace they might actually be able to punch right through the barricades...

    Well, perhaps they could have if there wasn't a great big concealed trench in front of them.

    The first tanks fall into the pit in a great plume of dust obscuring what's happening to those behind, who promptly follow them in. At this point the trap automatically pops it's flares.
    You all start firing on full auto into the chaos, causing several explosions as you manage to take out several more tanks as they hit the breaks and struggle not to crash into each other or over the edge.

    The artillery hits, tossing tanks into the air. One shell lands directly into the pit and massive explosion brews out of it, scatting debris so far even you a hundred meters away can hear the tinkle of metal rain on your Zaku.

    By the time it's over less than a company of Tanks survived to retreat back to their lines out of a full battalion.
    Suddenly your computer triggers it's proximty warning and your fortified area explodes. Most of the shots go wide but one manages to hit you in the back of the leg.
    Warning signals flare up on your screen telling you that the right leg power cabling has been ruptured and has to be shut down.
    You're right leg will have trouble cycling heat and drawing power from the main reactor. This will only really effect your jumping capacity.

    You turn around to see a wing of Fly Manta's firing missiles erratically at you. Zolomon and Strauss appear to have dodged in time.

    You all fire at the planes, taking them out in a few seconds of fire, they either explode in mid air, or crash behind you, in the killing field.

    KILLS:
    You: 1 Tank, 2 Plans
    Zolomon: 1 Plane
    Strauss: 2 Planes

    On earth, you have this thing called Gravity. Funny huh?
    Also funny is the fact that the Zaku, and the computer equipment guiding it is optimised for space combat, which doesn't HAVE gravity. Even with your J type, you still have to take this (and wind, you ARE firing over very long distances) into account.
    Unless you're using a Magella Top cannon, which can estimate firing arcs due to a slap-dash patch programme, which only works with the Magella Top Cannon, and even then can't take wind (which you can't feel, and your sensors aren't equipped to detect) into account.

Isn't it also funny that if mankind is able to construct giant robots they wouldnt be able to add the gravitational constant into the computers on these weapons platforms to compensate? Plus, unless this wind is hurricane force, I sincerely doubt it will effect the gigantic fucking rounds firing at these high speeds will be effected very much.

    Can't. Minovsky field retarding radar and radio remember? That's why you didn't die from a salvo of guided missiles just now.
    If they were in trouble, they would have launched a white flare signalling that they were retreating to defensive point 2.
    You're not even sure if you've seen the deadfall trap flares launch yet.

    A Zaku tank appears carrying guns and ammo, you ask it if it's got any news from the northern entrances. He says that so far enemy forces have yet to arrive last he heard.

    Your accuracy would be terrible if you fired them at the same time due to differing recoil, but you snag one anyway and lay it down behind the barricade.

    You then all reload.

    The fighters have split up and are making piecemeal attacks against your positions. This isn't very smart as it allows your forces to take them out one by one.

    You see a group of Depp Roggs line up for a bombing run... and then something wierd happens.

    The lead Depp Rogg explodes whilst dropping it's bombs, and then the one behind it does the same. The last one drops low to finish it's run, and then lower, and then crashes into the mountains surrounding the town.

    They're nothing but burning wrecks, and too far away to see any reason why this could have happened. They smoke from what bombs they were able to drop is also obscuring your mono-eye. It looks like they were loaded with incinidaries.
    Which is pretty harsh on the civilians still living in the city, and pretty damn useless against Zaku's, you wonder what the fuck they were thinking.

    Another five minutes of firing at stray Fly Manta's the planes retreat out of the Minovsky Zone.

    /k/ommando here. One of the reasons I can't take Gundam seriously is this.

    In the real world, almost every if not all modernized nations' tanks are all equipped as a standard with fire control systems capable of computing every factor that would affect shot accuracy at long range, while moving at combat speeds. Hitting a moving target from 2 miles away while you're also moving, in the middle of gale force winds, is well within the capabilities of any modern main battle tank. The factors that a modern FCS computes includes range, air density and temperature, wind velocity, the Coriolis effect, gravity, and wear and distortion to the gun barrel due to heat. The M1A2 Abrams can track two targets at once in this manner, so it can fire at one target quickly then reacquire the second target without having to regain a firing solution.

    The argument that minovsky particles might hamper these systems is moot, because it doesn't use radio waves to detect an enemy, it's all done visually, so if you can see an enemy, your FCS should be able to compute the proper trajectory for your shots to hit 95% of the time at nominal ranges. It shouldn't be hard to put an FCS capable of at least this on a billion or more dollar war machine like a mobile suit.

    It's not just Gundam of course. Battletech is also guilty of this. Then again I probably shouldn't bring something as petty as reality into a fictional landscape, so disregard.

    That WAS a mechanical failure, the Loki WASN'T meant to go up like that. Oh sure, the fact that it came to us from the 603rd Experimental Unit suggested that SOMETHING bad was going to happen, but still.

    Anyway, at 7:00, the Feds seems to have regrouped and begin their second attack. It looks like the survivors from the previous attack plus another full battalion, to a total of just under 60 tanks coming your way.

    They are taking a slower more cautious pace, and this time you don't have any pitfall traps to use. Behind you, your rear-view camera picks up the launch of multiple flares, signalling that the northern deadfall trap has been triggered, you can hear the WHOMPF of Magella Guns in reply, they won't be available for fire support until after they've finished firing and then reloaded.
    No planes currently visible.

    Have Zolomon fire with the bazooka at range.

    Go for the largest spread possible. Even if the shots won't result in definite kills on all that are hit. Even slowing down a few is better than nothing.

    Once they get in range, switch to MG fire. If there are still clusters, use the bazooka + crackers as necessary.

    You all take up firing positions on the barricade and prepare your shots. Zolomon grabs the Bazooka and prepares to fire it when they get close.

    After a few minutes of advancing, they begin firing. Most of the shots at this distance are going wild, or hitting the barricade, which takes it well.

    You return fire with carefully aimed shots, you and Strauss both manage to take down two apiece.
    When you get to about two-hundred to a hundred meters of each other you both open up with everything you have.
    Plumes of dirt and smoke make it hard to aim, but there are just so many of them, you hardly need to.
    You fire as the Tank's shots explode around you, slamming into the barricade.
    Your cockpit jerks as you take a shot to your skirt armour, knocking your aim wide, just as your ammo drum empty's.
    You toss a cracker grenade into the Maelstrom as you duck down and reload your rifle.
    Beside you, Zolomon tosses his now empty Bazooker over the barrier and continues firing his MG.
    You swing up and resume firing. Your view momentarily scrambles as your head catches a glancing shell and you fire blind for a second before your sight resolves. You take another hit in the chest armour. Still no serious damage.

    The fire is getting very intense.

    Just as your about to launch a green flare to request artillery support, Zolomon runs out of ammo for his MG. He discards it, pulls out both his Heat Hawks and then does something completely insane.

    He steps onto the barricade and leaps, boosters on full over it and into the mass of tanks.

    He takes at least five hits at the start of his jump, but his boosters push him through and evidently they can't have too badly damaged him, because he finishes the jump, flying into the smoke and wrecks, which should provide ample cover.

    Several tanks turn their turrets in confusion, which you take advantage of by taking them out whilst their distracted.
    There are several explosions through the smoke, the sound of cannon fire not directed at you and then in some sort of ridiculous acrobatic side-flip, Zolomon's smoking, and battle-scarred Zaku lands behind the barricade.

    It's Shoulder shield is completely sheared off, the power cabling for his right arm is severed and you can see exposed electronics from a large hole in his helmet. His chest is web of cracks and impact craters, some of which are still smoking.

    "DO NOT DO THAT AGAIN" Strauss barks over the contact comm.
    "No time for that boss! We got incoming planes!"

    He points at the incoming squadron of Fly Manta's.

    You pop a green flare and then a white flare to signal your retreat back to the second defensive line.

    You: 14 Tanks
    Strauss: 12 Tanks
    Zolomon: 24 Tanks

    You retreat back, just in time to dodge the massed Fly Manta fire that finally takes out your barricade. You fire back, taking out a couple of the planes as they pass overhead. The zoom off, quickly out of range, and you finish reaching the second defensive line at the crossroads on Camino Viejo A La Ventosa.
    There a Zaku Tank is waiting with weapons and ammo.

    It's possible that there may be others trying to outflank you that are using the smaller streets flanking the main road.

    >Hold fire until they're committed. Let them come around the corner, then start firing.

    You hold your fire waiting for them to get close enough to ensure a kill. You can't signal the Infantry without giving out your position. You can't see any smoke rising from the streets, which is hopefully a good sign.

    You wait until you can hear the rumble of their catapillar tracks and then with practiced ease both you and Straus leap out, fire a burst and then leap into cover for Zolomon's bazooka shot to take out the survivors.

    KILLS:
    You: 2 Planes, 2 Tanks

    So now what's the situation? Street blocked with the remains of a few more tanks should make a nice little ridge that enemies will either have to go around, or spend time clearing.

    Since they're would likely know that trying to clear the scene would be a deathtrap, I assume they will take alternative streets.

    Spread out the three of us.

    One watches the main street, the other two watch the perpendicular street in both directions. Keep close though, keeping it easy to signal each other.

    One watches the main street, the other two watch the perpendicular street in both directions. Keep close though, keeping it easy to signal each other.

    The three of you spread out, and keep a look out of multiple angles. You go for about five minutes without seeing a thing. The Fly Manta's are steering clear of this area, most of them are making hesitant attacks on the other team, and they don't appear to be doing to well for it.
    The smoke is probably a worry for them.

    At 7:50 you see a flight of high flying Depp Roggs advancing on your position.

    Strauss takes a high position and starts firing on them with his Cannon, somewhere behind you, the AA Tanks join in. One of the Depp Roggs starts to billow smoke and breaks off.
    Strauss get's a lucky shot in and one of them explodes mid air.

    The other swoops in low, you bring in your MG to fire on it. You hit it with several glancing hits and it opens it's bomb bay doors and flies overhead and...

    Nothing. The Depp Rogg drops nothing, it just flies overhead and then out to sea.

    No. It didn't drop anything at all, it's like the bomb bay mechanisms just locked up.

    Also, where the hell would MEXICO of all places get shit like that?

    After this strange occurance there is another lull in the fighting. An APC from your infantry forces meet up with you. Apparently you just managed to take out two whole battalions out there. Those five tanks were the last of the lot, and they only moved forwards because they apparently weren't aware that they were all that's left.

    The Mexican forces are currently falling back waiting for reinforcements.

    It is 8:00am, you have 3 more hours to go before reinforcements arrive.

    The Zaku Tank has returned carrying weapons and ammo, not that you need it. He informs you that the Lugguns are thinking of taking to the skies to have a recce if no more air forces are seen in ten minutes.

    We just have to hold them for possibly one more hour till they have nothing left to throw at us. That is assuming normal feddy tactics are at work here. But seeing that they are launching defective aircraft and barreling tanks at us like Russians, I'm starting to think that these are either remote controlled or are dummy units set to a standard pattern of attack.

    After ten minutes with no sign of the enemy, your Lugguns take off.
    You start to move forwards to investigate the initial defence line.

    There are wrecked tanks EVERYWHERE. The Barricade is completely destroyed, via a combination of unguided rockets, artillery and tank shells. The raw material is here to rebuild it, at least and the three of you get to work doing so.
    It's hard going with Zolomon's damaged arm, but you get a decent and servicable stack of tanks set up as a replacement barricade.
    You finish setting youself up by 9. By this point Strauss has set up laser communications with the Luggun, which is reporting no sign of enemy forces.

    Around about this time, another Zaku tank and a team of engineers arrive to see if they can do field repairs.

    From the looks of things, they only sent a single battalion against two squads of seasoned veteran pilots in rough terrain and ample cover with pre-arranged traps.
    You can only imagne how that went. The Depp Roggs and air forces have done next to no damage other than to an unlucky squad of infantry who got caught in a burning building. Even then were not looking at a total loss.

    As of so far, whilst there are a fair few beat up mobile suits, we haven't lost anything major.
    The real worry is the ammo situation, were REALLY getting through it, and a lot of people haven't quite got the knack of hitting airplanes yet and have to compensate with just spraying the area with shells.

    >fix zolomon!

    The tech get to work patching up Zolomon as much as they can do. They start welding giant steel plates over holes and the worst cracks, and they see about reattatching the left arm power cable, which they're able to quickly bodge together.

    if so, this is a prototype high mobility model zaku.

    Canon: The MS-06RS Super Mobility Zaku was a unique mobile suit, designed to test the feasiblity of such an idea. Starting with the MS-06R-2 High Mobility Zaku's design, and adding two chest-mounted and two forearm-mounted maneuvering thrusters, the Super Mobility Zaku was able to out-maneuver anything else in space, by a significant margin. However, this suit was even more expensive and difficult to fly than the MS-06R-2 High-Mobility Zaku, and its high mobility meant it used up fuel quicker than any other Zaku variant. Another reason why the Super-Mobility Zaku wasn't mass-produced, was that it used the MS-06R-1a's reactor, which meant it couldn't use beam weapons, and therefore was passed over in favor of the MS-14 Gelgoog.

    By about 10 in the morning, the tech's have managed to repair what they can, and have mounted back up in their APC and are about to move back towards the centre of town.

    At this point, Zolomon get's an urgent message from the Luggun.
    "What? WHAT? CRAP! MOVE! EVERYONE EVAC BACK TO POINT 2! GO! GO! GO!"

    The Zaku Tank hit's full reverse and skoots off beckwards as you try to follow it, Zolomon running behind you. Strauss grabs both of you with his Zaku's hands.

    "JUMP!" He yells, and you hit the jets along with him just as your caught in a massive cataclysm of explosive force. You nearly black out at the tremendous pressure of it and you just manage to control your jump and soften the impact of you landing feet first into a single story Starbucks. Your legs hydraulics signal their protests to your internal computer, but all three of you managed to survive the explosions.

    The Zaku Tank, all of the paint scraped off it's back, is holding the APC in it's hands as it limps back to where you are.

    "Enemy Artillery Battleship, over the hills! Those were 4000mm shells! It's firing on us because it can't get sufficient elevation to get at Squads 2 and 3! We've also got enemy air forces incoming!"

    At which point the Land Battleship starts walking it's fire towards you.

    As you keep running forwards, it's fire eventually stops travelling forwards. You hope that the Mech Infantry moved out from their positions, because there's nothing much left now.

    You don't really have time for that now though.

    You quickly meet up in the central position with the Artillery unit.

    "What's the Plan? We've GOT to take that Land Battleship out before the HLV's arrive, firepower like that will pop them like grapes!" asks Strauss.

    "We've got four more incoming squadrons of Fly Manta's, no Depp Roggs this time from the looks of it. Were switching our ammo out for dedicated AA shells and going onto Airwatch! You need to meet up with Squads 2 and 3 and work out a plan of attack! Take out any planes you see on the way if you can!"

    There are more weapons and ammo to replace that wich you've lost.

    Bazookas, heat hawks and grenades will probably be the only things of use.

    You all load up with Bazooka's and reloads. You trade out your cracker grenades for more reloads. Even Zolomon fits four sets of reloads on his back plate.

    You then march up towards the other defence point. You can see the arriving Fly Manta's coming over the ridge, meeting with concentrated rifle fire and now supporting AA fire from the Magella Squad. The fire is preventing them from making strafing runs, and the Mobile Suits are proving too mobile or too well entrenched for their low yiled bombs to prove much good.

    You meet up with a familiar face: A Mr Dogatie taking shots at passing airplanes.

    Strauss links up with their CO and asks what the plan is.

    "You guy's go OVER this mountain, hill whatever. Eddings and his squad will follow the road and attack the Battleship from the front. They'll use the hilly ridges for cover, and distract the thing allowing you to surpise it from the flank!"

    He finishes talking to take out a divebombing Fly Manta.

    "What are you waiting around for? Go! Get!"

    You rapidly start clambering over the hills.

    The three of you dash and scramble across the steep terrain, struggling to remain out of sight, and hoping that the other team can distract them long enough.

    As you dash around the first peak and towards the second, you hear the near deafening boom of the Land Battleship firing it's main guns again.
    The Decoy force has made contact.

    You hasten further and wind round the second peak. You can now see the huge target arrayed against you.
    It is huge, easily two third larger than a Big Tray, equipped with three banks of forward facing cannons. Which are making a great big mess of the ridge. You honestly can't tell if any of the decoy force is alive or dead. A salvo of leg rockets from the smoke rushing out and exploding ineffectually against the armour belt answers that question.

    I'm not sure how many other forces are in the area. Plus if we get too close any kind of mounted turrets might get us.

    I'm not sure of the design though, so that might not be an issue.

    But we've got range and explosive capabilities. We got these bazookas for a reason. I say we use them.

    >Take out those main guns.
    >DEATH FROM ABOVE!

    With Strauss hanging back and firing at it from the ridge, both you and Zolomon leap towards it from your elevated position.
    In mid leap you fire all of your rockets at the central main gun. You fire a shot from your bazooka off as well.
    All of the shots hit home (it IS a very big target.) and there's a large plume of fire.

    You land just before the central turret, behind the left turret. Zolomon fires on the bridge in his jump and then lands unsteadily on the bridge section itself. After righting himself, takes a second shot at the bridge.

    You see the small defence turret rotate to face him, but a bazooka hit from Strauss takes the port side turret out, and Zolomon sees the starboard ones in time to take them out as well.

    The Land Battleship begins to move. Possibly in an attempt to shake you off.

    The battleship is still taking fire from the Decoy team, and it seems unsure about what to concentrate on. Point defense fire is still coming your way, but the angle is awkward, and ineffectual.

    Zolomon fires another Bazooka round into the Bridge, tosses the now empty weapon and brandishes the hawks.
    You mean while leap atop the ruined central turret. The explosives burrowed a hole almost eight meters deep, and you can see the armoured shutters of the magazine below. You fire three shots at it with your Bazooka.
    The first hit damage it.
    The second hit breaches it
    The third hit ignites the central magazine.

    Zolomon then leaps up into the sky and brings his heat hawks down. They both come down together onto the bridge, and practically cleave a furrow through it right to the base.

    "Come one Zlomon! Let's go!" you call as you both leap off the doomed Land Battleship.

    Behind you, in true movie fashion the explodes spectacularily.

    Preaching to the choir man.

    But we're currently following the rule of cool.

    And can you possibly imagine the damage a group of Just a rank Below Norris Packard-esque pilots can do in 3 Goufs?

    Seriously, what's so special about Garma?

    Doms are the mobile suit equivalent to modern day tanks that can hover and "jet-skate" really fucking fast. They have civilian racing models.

    I.... I just have this weird vision of us trying to do the jet-stream attack and it failing horribly...

    Only if we fight a Gundam. In which case we're screwed no matter what we do. Unless it's a RX-79 ground type.

    Ok. So why do you guys say saving Garma would be so good? What do you think would happen because of it?

    Garma's major fault is his naivete. When Char does what he does, he loses this.

    We'd be giving him his chance to become a better leader. All for the glory of Zeon.

    Also.... is someone archiving this?

    Yes. It's up.

    Garma's important because if he dies, the shock of it causes Degwin to give the primary reigns of the country over to Gihren.
    Who is the Cosmo Space Hitler.

    Also it causes the other siblings to direct overly large amounts of aces and super prototypes into trying to kill off the Gundam and White Base.

    Also, don't assume that Char's going to be stupid enough to try and kill Garma with witnesses around, the guy's in it the revenge gig for the long haul. He'll take an oppourtune moment if he thinks he's got one, but he doesn't HAVE to kill Garma in spetember, or even ever.
    ALSO, try not to metagame TOO hard when he arrives...

    We'd never do that

    We should be fine when he arrives. But you can't expect us not to be fanboyish a bit. :D


    Just ignore the posts that say "I shoot Char"

    I promise not to. But I promise a lot of things like conquering Cadia and killing the false emperor.

    Well if this is a alternate universe why not change some stuff around, I mean you said we are going to fight gundam and in the first thread you would give us achievements for changing history.

    But, how are you going to do it without any arms?

    You ALWAYS forget them Abby.
