You are currently piloting an MS-06J Zaku (Ground Type) you are armed with a 240mm Bazooka (currently empty, one reload remaining) and a Heat Hawk (Your leg rockets are all used up.) It is rather beat up, but field repairs have kept it fully functional.

Your wingman ZOLOMON RINGO is piloting a MS-06F Zaku II armed with a pair of Heat Hawks (he HAD a Bazooka, but he tossed it after using up all of the ammo.) He might have a couple of cracker grenades left.

Your CO Wolfgang Strauss is in a MS-06S Zaku II and was providing cover for your close assault on the Land Battleship with his Bazooka from the hills you mounted your attack from.

You are currently face down in the dirt after leaping off the Battleship as it's ammo magazine exploded.

YOUR ORDERS?

Get up, check if the zaku is damaged, reload and then locate Zolomon and Strauss

>>6593276

You lift your protesting Zaku upright. A quick check to your left reveals Zolomon picking himself up, and in front of you is Wolfgang waving to you.

Behind you is the burning remains of the gigantic landship, burning heavily and billowing black smoke into the sky. The occaisional secondary explosion shakes it's frame.
To you right you can see a the damaged but still functional decoy team, picking themselves up after taking a good minute of close range pounding by the Battleships stupidly heavy guns.

Hmmm. Probably picked a bad time to start... I see at elast three decent threads on the front page.

Almost missed the bastard again.

Look for our team, do a sitrep and try to get in contact with HQ again.

If we keep this shit up, we'll have Lady Kycilia wanting us.

If you know what I mean.

>>6593577

She'll take interest in our track record and might issue us a few Gouf Customs?

>>6593577

Goddamn, I know I've seen it before, but that is a NICE jacket. Please tell me it's a personal photo and not one you found on the internet.

You meet up with the rest of your squad and then help pick up the decoy squad. Aside from a few missing limbs, they appear to have lucked out, the ridge they were taking cover behind and taking potshots from appears to have been pretty good at ablating the Battleships heavy fire.

Strauss notices that the Lugguns are still in the air and get's a SitRep from one.
Apparently all enemy forces are in retreat and there are no signs of hostil aircraft.

Your orders?

>>6593623
Commandeer some enemy vehicles and take some POWs.

>>6593623

Sorry bro, random google thing from a store page.


Had one from the front, it's quite a good jacket.

Subtly suggest to our commander that we go help Garma as a reserve or elite MS ace guard force next time we get to briefing.

>>6593667

There doesn't look to be any survivors nearby, also, where would you put them? Your command vehicle is currently up in orbit, and wont be back until about an hour.

>>6593623
Get back to the city & shore our defenses back up.

Grab some food & hydrate our awesome selves.

Samefag here.

http://www.hlj.com/product/CSP37640
http://www.hlj.com/product/CSP36773

Shouldn't Lister already be wearing one of these, at least off-duty?

>>6593709
Rejoin the rest of our force and have the infantry check the destroyed tanks for survivors(with the amount that were destroyed at least a few should have had 1 or more crew members survive). The infantry will just have to hold them at gunpoint for now, although I suppose we could commendeer a building for a makeshift jail if necessary

>>6593719
Seconding, sounds like a good idea. Construct a nice defendable area. Also random question, would it be possible, with any incoming supplies and available intel, to construct any traps technologically advanced or primitive, that could fuck up, or slow down forces?

>>6593705
>Subtly suggest to our commander that we go help Garma as a reserve or elite MS ace guard force next time we get to briefing.

You'll have to link up with him first! He's in California, YOU are in Mexico.
Last time it took us six whole threads just to get to Panama, and even then we didn't make it to the city!
But I digress.

>Get back to the city & shore our defenses back up.

>Grab some food & hydrate our awesome selves

You return to the city along with the decoy group. You quickly meet up with the Maggella Cannon Support squad and the engineering corps.
They are currently inspecting the wreckage of a crashed Depp Rogg. You remember that these seemed to be having some sort of strange problems during the battle.

An engineer (who you recognise as Okawara) beckons you to come down. You take some food and drink you'd stashed in the fridge before the battle started, and you climb down.

Once down you all gather round the techs as they explain what happened.

>>6593770

Simple enough; Now the Feddies have pissed off, have our commander ask for a few Fat Uncles transports or Gaws sent over.

I'm sure when he mentions how Garma'll be recieving an elite, blooded veteran reserve force that have already taken out enough feddies to make Char blink, he'll be all too happy.

One of the techs picks up a piece of electronic equipment, presumably salvaged from the plane.

"This is the vernier control computer, it's used to keep the plane in the air despite it's un-aerodynamic shape..."

He then picks up another piece of electrical component, it is much bulkier and has the Zeonic symbol on it.

"This is the same piece of equipment, but taken from one of our Dopps. Notice the difference? This one [he lifts the dopps computer] has individual minovsky particle shielding, THIS piece of crap [he gestures with the Depp Rogg computer] does not. The rest of the plane is armoured against Minovsky particle coming in, but that wont help a Depp Rogg when it opens it's bomb bay doors."

He shakes his head.

"Christ, it'd be like setting off an EMP right there in the cockpit. No wonder they were so screwy."

>>6593820

Comment on how we sorta lucked out there.

And ask how the hell we're going to survive minus a loki.

Hell yeah homeboy!

>>6593820
Jeez and we all though they were dropping bio-warfare agents. whew!

Brofist Zolomon on his excellent Heat Hawk work out there, then ask what Strauss thinks of our current situation.

Your forces are somewhat depleted, almost all of your ammo has been expended you lost a Zaku Tank in the shelling, as well as two AA Magella's. Leaving only two remaining.

It was the infantry that took it the worst however, only a single squad and APC and a couple of Jeeps are left able bodied after the battle.

You set up a smaller defensive line to safeguard against any further attacks.
None appear to be forthcoming. At 12 on the dot, you see the streaks of flame signalling the return of the rest of Mastodon Battalion as well as additional reinforcements.

FUCK YES ZEONQUEST!

>>6593939
Let's keep and eye out and then welcome the forces that arrive.

The HLV's and the returning SHVL return to near enough the spots they left this morning.
After settling down the vehicles begin to disgorge their cargo, another company of mixed mobile suits filter out of three HLV's. Older reserve suits, C type Zaku II's and the even older Zaku I's.
Another full squadron of Dopp fighters start taxiing out of the final HLV.

Finally, the SHVL opens it's doors (unassisted THIS time) and reveals...

>>6593939
>After 10,000 years i'm free, time to conquer Earth!

>>6594017
Back in the jar with you!

>>6594001

I'm not sure Zeon understands the amount of men and materials necessary to take over a planet with how few reserves they seem to have.

>>6594017

It has literally taken six threads for someone to notice that. Also, can you guess where the Mastodon image in the middle is originally from?


The Dabude class land battleship rolls out of the carrier. Zeon's answer to the Big Tray battleship, but with a more dedicated MS bay that hold and maintain six mobile suits as well as aircraft.

Once it has successfully disembarked, it's MS bays open up and another six mobile suits roll out, this time all MS-06J's from the looks like. This brings Mastodon Battalion back up to full strength.

>>6594001
>>6594066
I love the high-set & easily targeted bridge there.

>>6594066
>It has literally taken six threads for someone to notice that

The quote was familiar, but I only just managed to place it. I haven't watched Power Rangers since I was seven.

Still, I am ashamed to be a britfag for taking so long.

>>6594066
>It has literally taken six threads for someone to notice that.

I'm sure lots of people noticed it they just thought it was awesome enough not to comment on.

>>6594060
Remember we were originally a decoy force. We're only getting a bit of stuff that had been left in reserve to keep us afloat until we link up with the main forces.

Open private channels to your squad and ask what they think.

There's something suspect about a battalion that's not really of any further use being given reinforcement.

>>6594001
WELL LET'S GEAR UP AND GO FUCK UP THE FEDERATION!

In all honesty though, OP, you only want to play Zeon so you can invade America, hoping to sate your thirst for revenge against the colonies, eh?

>>6594092

It's not really a frontline unit. Besides, how do you KNOW that's the bridge?

Anyway, after the Mobile Suits have out and the rest of your squads have arrived at the dropzone, you hear Captain Fontaine over the radio.

"Gentlemen! Good job! The most damaged mobile suits should move to the bay for repair and reamaments. Zaku Tanks start dragging back salvage and unusued ammo. We move out in one hour!"

The Decoy squad moves in first, with your squad and the artillery support squad next in line.

The new mobile suit forces begin to scope out a perimeter and the Dopps are setting up a CAP zone over the area.

>>6594161
Newbies don't know what it's like in real combat.

Hey does anyone remember those pictures that were made in like a war photography style, documenting the One Year War?

After the second and third mobile suit squads (you're not really sure into what companies everythings being moved to now.)

You notice a new type of ground attack fighter rolling out from the vehicle entrance of the Dabude.
You take the time to exit your Zaku, and eat some more of your rations. You then spend half an hour playing cards with the rest of your squad.

>There's something suspect about a battalion that's not really of any further use being given reinforcement.

You bring this up with Strauss. He just shrugs.

"I guess Zeon are just sending it to where they think it's needed. I managed to get a scope on the tactical situation from the battleship. New York fell last night, and California surrendered round about the time the Prance was taking off. So I guess they thought a spare battalion bringing up the rear couldn't hurt. Blackjack."

"Were playing Poker Sarg."

"Oh... well I guess that gives me a use for these queen, king and ten of spades cards then."

"FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF..."

Your squad makes it into the Dabude just as the battleship starts off northwards.

Kill some time asking Strauss about Loum and other war stories, and maybe his background.

Ask Zolomon as well.

We're going to need to be complete Bros to survive in this war once the GM's start appearing.

>>6594224
Where the heck is the vehicle hanger on the Dabude?

>>6594224
>"Were playing Poker Sarg."

>"Oh... well I guess that gives me a use for these queen, king and ten of spades cards then."

I love doing this to people.

You enter the Dabude, the area is somewhat better organised than the Prancer, which was a specialised refit. The Dabude's bay reminds you of a Zanzibar's truth be told. You exit the Zaku and meet with the Captain's Aide, who salutes the three of you.

"Welcome to Roter Mond Gentlemen if you three would like to accompany me to the command deck?"

He leads you to a large lift and takes you up.

Oh, great, an even bigger target than the prancer.

WHERE IS NORRIS PACKARD WHEN YOU NEED HIM

You reach the command deck, which is pretty damn similar to the Prancer's old one.
Captain Fontain greet's you.
"Congratulations to you gentlemen, that's another Battleship kill to add to the battalion's name. It was our successes in taking down such hardened targets as well as our defeat of the Federation 4th US Division that convinced the higher ups to replenish our forces. On that note, I am pleased to formally announce your promotion from Sargeant to Sargeant Major Wolfgang Strauss."

Strauss straightens and then salutes.

"Sorry gentlemen, I'd promote the rest of you, but then I'd have to split my dream team up!"
He laughs uprauriously, you join in.

Afterwards you are dismissed you move back to your Zaku.

WOLFGANG STRAUSS has been PROMOTED to SARGEANT MAJOR.
YOUR SQUAD IS NOW SQUAD 1 OF 1ST COMPANY.

CHOOSE YOUR LOADOUT

>>6594329
>Roter Mond

Because we didnt have enough Germanic stuff before.

>>6594459

Congratulate and/or brofist Strauss on the promotion. Give beer if possible.

We've been doing pretty well with the 120mm + heat hawk for now, see if we can't get our leg rockets replenished.

>>6594459
Same zaku as before?

Let's just go with the standard loadout we've been using. MG, reloads, crackers for us.

>>6594417
>WHERE IS NORRIS PACKARD WHEN YOU NEED HIM

NO DAVID YOU ARE THE NORRIS PACKARD

And then David Lister was a ONE MAN ARMY

>>6594459
Go with what you know. Same set up as we've normally been using and Zolomon with his heat hawks etc. Though maybe Straus sould be carrying the bazooka?

>>6594459
>CHOOSE YOUR LOADOUT
EVERYTHING!

But, seriously, I say we stick with our usual.

sorry im late.....i was..takeing care of some loose ends

>>6594498
It's pretty much true. We are one badass motherfucker.

>>6594520
This pic is now an 'I c what you did thar' reaction image.

>>6594537
ok cool

did this die?

>>6594624
He's probably writing the next post. Go watch some commercials or something for 5 or 10 minutes. these threads can last hours.

>>6594639
And it had better be a good post!

>We've been doing pretty well with the 120mm + heat hawk for now, see if we can't get our leg rockets replenished.

You go for a standard loadout. Since Zolomon has decided to switch to a Machine Gun, Strauss opts for a Bazooka.

Move outside.

Outside you are put on the out patrol ring. You all meet third company as it's coming back in, which is a somewhat strange sight, as they're all seemingly riding on those Ground Attack craft you saw earlier.

The craft gently glides to a stop and the Zaku jumps off. Apparently he expects you to take his place and go flying off.
Not willing to look a fool, you tentively step up to the red plate like craft. There's a *clank* as you step onto special footplates and they magnetise your feet to the Dodai.

"Good morning sir, we'll just be going on quick air patrol, don't worry sir, we wont be going all that high, and if we come up against any fighters we'll call for the Dopps. If we see any ground forces we can either bombard them from up here, or you could Dee-Eff-Ayy them."

You aren't sure what a DFA is, but you have bigger problems as the Dodai blasts off with it's multiple nuclear pulse thrusters, and you try to keep your composure.

>>6594763
>you could Dee-Eff-Ayy them

I like these guys already. Everyone likes the occasional Death From Above.

So we're riding on a plane?

>>6594790
I feel like an idiot for not realising what that stood for right away. And I'm a huge fan of DEATH FROM ABOOOOOOVE!!

>>6594826
Yes. I remember them a bit from 08th MS team but didnt realise they'd been deployed this early in the war.

You swiftly [ha] meet up with the rest of your squad as the three of you swoop around in a slow patrol within the Dabude's Minovsky Particle Field.
After about 10 minutes you get used to flying about on the Dodai, it's kind of like fighting in space, except the horizon's easier to find.

You patrol as your forces make their way north, after their crushing defeat, the Mexican Army doesn't have the will to send forces against you.

By the time you return to the Roter Mond, it's eight at night and you're passing past the town of Morelia. At this pace you might make it out of Mexico tommorow.

After returning to the ship, you are given official quarters and catch some food and drink before going to bed. The Patrol bands have been extend to eight hours, to afford soldiers a decent nights sleep. You've been up since 4am this morning, so you all need it.

You are now famliar with using Dodais.

>>6594952

Congratulate/brofist Strauss before we get to our quarters. He earned it.

>>6594878
>Yes. I remember them a bit from 08th MS team but didnt realise they'd been deployed this early in the war.

Well, before the Africa arc, the Gundam was either against stuff in space, or up against things that already have Air mobility by riding about in a Gaw.

The next day goes much the same with no enemy contacts. There were some very nice sunsets however, so there's that at least.

Your sitting in the mess hall when you finally cross over into New Mexico. Cross the Rio Grande had actually been a little tricky, since in the aftermath of the Colony Drop it was now living up to it's name.

Your orders from here are to resupply from a town and then continue north east towards the 3rd Divisions southbound forces.

You've also been hearing rumours about investigating Roswell, but that's probably just idle talk.

>>6595111
why do i have a feeling were going to see ufo's

>>6595111
Let's get a move on then.

When we're on patrol, keep alert and shit.

>>6595111
>rumours about investigating Roswell

WE MUST!

>>6595111
>continue north east towards the 3rd Divisions southbound forces.

Arn't they in California? Shouldnt we be headed north west?

You catch some sleep, and are back up by midnight. You travel overnight over the desert, it's a cloudless night with a full moon.
It's two in the morning when the Luggun's outside the radar zone pop their signal flares and retreat back to the Roter Mond.
As they go, they use laser comms to signal the tactical situation to you.
Two wings of Fly Manta's and a wing of SaberFish advancing on your position.
Looks like it's time to get our aerial ace wings.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>6595262
I assume we'll be riding on those planes for this?

Use a pincer attack. Some forces coming head on, using evasive movements. Others come in from both sides.

LEG MISSILES AND FILLING THE SKY WITH 120MM

LET'S DO THIS

I have this feeling we're going to lose either Zolomon or Strauss pretty soon.


;_;

>>6595330
Sounds good enough as long as we stay inside minovski range.

>>6595365
Bah, that's nothing. I had a dream the other night where our 3 intrepid heroes are guarding Garma and and Mr.Incogneto shows up. Turns out he's been sent my Gihren to take out his brother and blame it on the Federation.

Then we recognised him and vise-versa. He goes 'Oh shit!' and starts shooting at us... pritty sure Lister dies that that point.

>>6595330

You give the hand signals to attack in a curving pattern, designed to attack from above and to the side.

You quickly manage to spot the group on IR and begin to loop around to them. You see two wings of Dopps coming to attack them from above and below. You swoop down and open fire just as the Dopps do. A crossfire of shells, bullets and rockets scorch the sky, several Fly Manta's are caught in the crossfire and crash, but many more survive due to last minute evasive maneouvers. The flyers scatter into two man groups and you are forced to pick and choose your targets.
You and Strauss are able to take out a pair of Fly Manta, but come under fire from a duet of Saberfish. But they have to break off their attack when Strauss nails one with his Bazooka.

You check your suit, it shows minimal damage, the Dodai remains unhurt.
You swing back into the chaos looking for another target, the pilots are of a much higher caliber than the ones you faced before, and they seem to have worked out some rudimentary tactics for fighting in Minovsky zones.

Below you can see the flare ground explosions, evidently this is a full on night attack.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>6595436

Wave to Zolomon and make a heat hawk gesture.

He'll know what to do.

>>6595436
Withdraw a short distance & regroup for another hit on the group.

Concentrate on bombers.

Doesn't the Dodai have missiles on its front as well as what we have?

I know there's a variant (B-Type) that has depth charges.

>>6595532
>Withdraw a short distance & regroup for another hit on the group.

You swoop up out of the melee along with the rest of the squad and you then dive back down, carefully taking your shots against the enemy. Another four planes fall to your precise fire as you sweep through them.

You spot a Saberfish craze a Dopp with machinegun fire and it bursts into a fireball. In retaliation you fire a burst at the Saberfish, it dodges your attack with a barrel roll and fires another burst of bullets at a further Dopp, you see the flash of sparks as some of the bullets hit the target, but the small fighter refuses to go down.
You fire again, a long burst this time, but the heavy fighter dodges out of the way of your fire in an almost crazily erratic pattern.

Kono pressure?

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

>>6595705

Zolomon and his AA heat hawk.

No bastard feddy plane is going to dodge that.

>>6595725
Second.

>>6595705
FFFFFFF- god damn newtype pilot or something. kill his ass good now so we dont have to deal with a Feddie Mobile Suit Ace in a few months.

I'm not sure, but I'm assuming based on what you said, and what's been said in other threads, that new types are some kind of psychic enhanced pilots or something?

>>6595881
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newtype read this and were the uc

>>6595881
Yes. Star Wars was all the craze when Gundam was created. The Show creators wanted some characters to USE THE FORCE LUKE!

>>6595881
Newtypes generally have limited precognition and sense things.

The Saberfish makes a harsh straight angle turn and there is a flare of flame as it jets straight upwards.
Tired of this planes acrobatics you disengage the magnetic logs on the Dodai and leap off towards it. You realise mid leap that you wont make it.
> Reach out your arm
You reach up and grab a passing Fly Manta and squeeze, it rolls over and flips you up. For a second you are level with the saberfish (If upside down) you fire all of your leg rockets.

The saberfish is caught in a cavalcade of explosions as it tries to jink out of the way, and although it survives, at least one of it's engines are on fire and it's missing a wing airlerion (sp?).

It fires a white flare at you, which bounces harmlessly off your armour and disengages whilst you use your AMBAC routines to right yourself.

With the white flar launched the enemy air forces disengage, leaving you 1200m in the air and falling. You can see the explosions and gunfire from the ground battle below.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>6595923

Climb on the plane, smash the engine and ride it into the ground. Break the cockpit off if you can and secure it, Zeon might want a newtype.

>>6595923
Make sure that fucking plane is destroyed.

We'll survive this somehow.

>>6595967

Unofrtunately you've dropped below the battle, and the enemy has already fled.
You can't see your Dodai, presumeably he's already fled.

You've survived combat drops from higher than this before don't forget.

>>6595974
now you know how deadly they are

>>6596004
Sure smells like railroading in here

>>6595923
Death from above time.

>>6596004
>>6596019
Choo Choo

Also, ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED.

>>6595923
Report in that you're droping on top of groundside Federation Forces. Hopefully you wont get killed by friendly fire from your command ship.

>>6596043

Gonna have to explain that one to me..

Yay, our first encounter with a Newtype!

Is what I would say if Zolomon and his Heat Hawk h4x didn't also make it a dead giveaway

>>6596058
Its the bell sound effect that plays when Newtypes have their psychic moments.

>>6596058

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTHn9GmTgSk

It's the reference to the sound that newtypes hear when they detect danger. Newtype pilots in G:BU get it instead of the computer warning sound to warn the player of incoming attacks.

>>6596058
a newtype here a bell like sound in there head when there near other newtypes

>>6596004

But...newtype captive....


We'd outdo the fucking red comet if we'd have managed that.

Or just a really damned good oldtype, which there were plenty of during the OYW.

wait.....are we a newtype also?

>>6596172
I would assume not but who knows.

>>6596172
Did we hear bells?

>>6596053
>Report in that you're droping on top of groundside Federation Forces. Hopefully you wont get killed by friendly fire from your command ship.

You don't think there's going to be much risk of that, considering that the Feds don't have mobile suits, but you fire a blue and green flare to signal incoming air drop.

You prepare youself for the landing and notice a squad of enemy tanks swivelling their guns to meet you. At the last moment you punch your thrusters into high gear, straining the heat sinks and raising a great cloud of New Mexican dust into the air, obscuring your final landing.
Tank shells whizz past your form, you toss a Cracker in their direction.
The concussive blast clears your dustcloud to reveal the squad having lost two tanks. The other two are reversing to put some distances between you and them.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>6596198

FIRE! FIRE! DON'T LET THEM ESCAPE! SIEG ZEON! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

>>6596198
Move and shoot. The MG seems to take out takns well enough.

>>6596233
>FIRE! FIRE! DON'T LET THEM ESCAPE! SIEG ZEON! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

TANKS FOR THE TANK THRONE!

>>6596296
We need drawfags on this ASAP! A throne for a Zeon MS made out of wrecked Type-61 tanks.

>>6596312

I'd rather like Drawfaggotry of Mastodon battalion as a whole, myself.

>>6596312
We call those 'barricades'. We've had about... what, 4 built for us so far?

>FIRE! FIRE! DON'T LET THEM ESCAPE! SIEG ZEON! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

>Move and shoot. The MG seems to take out takns well enough.

You persue the fleeing tanks as the reverse away from you, firing your MG at them as they return fire with their cannons. Your attacks keep their aim off and you quickly plug one. You take a couple of knocks in the the right shoulder, which effects your aim, and you miss against the other. At which point the rest of the tank company ambushes you from the crest of the ridge and bombards you with fire.
You are abrubtly shaken in your seat and your computer starts to flash warnings signs as you take damage.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>6596172
I don't think so

I don't think Strauss is either

Zolomon SHOULD be one. Because there is "good", "skilled", and then there is "Heat Hawks do NOT WORK THAT WAY" And he is at the far end of the lastone

>>6596349
jump jets, leaving, not being here.

>>6596349
Grenade. Jet thruster assisted retreat. Fire with MG while falling back.

>>6596349

Sieg zeon, fire all remaining rockets, throw grenades, go crazy, HEAT HAWKs

I've just gotta say that due to this quest thread I went out and re-bought MS Gundam Zeonic Front and the entire original MS Gundam series (Amaro and those stupid lil 6 year old kids REALLY piss me off with their bitching and crying now that I'm older)

SIEG ZEON!

>>6596362
This. It's too bad we used all of our leg rockets.

Call for backup and try to stay alive over getting kills.

>>6596381
>Amaro and those stupid lil 6 year old kids REALLY piss me off with their bitching and crying now that I'm older

Thats what Bright Slap is for.

Also, fire jump gets, unload with foot rockets

>>6596349
>You are abrubtly shaken in your seat and your computer starts to flash warnings signs as you take damage.

Hit the afterburners Maverick! The AFTERBURNERS!

Get the fuck OUT of there.

Oh yes, and once we get a chance mount a shoulder shield on the forearm of the opposite arm for defense. Since we can't carry more than 1 gun and a heathawk we could use the spare shield for defense. Shouldn't be that hard for the engineers.

OR we could just do like Gundam and double up the shield (Stupid fucking G-Armor... how I hate you so)

>jump jets, leaving, not being here.
>Grenade. Jet thruster assisted retreat. Fire with MG while falling back.
>Call for backup and try to stay alive over getting kills.

You leap upwards once more, tossing a grenade into the midst of the tanks, but their formation is dispersed and you do little damage. You fire in sustained bursts at the tanks, you score a couple of killing blows, but then the rest launch smoke obscuring your fire. You see no tell-tale explosions from the rest of your shots.
At which point your protesting overworked thrusters give out in mid jump.
You land heavily, and stumble to one knee, with heavy fire falling around you from the obscured tank company.
Suddenly, you see a pair of Dodai's fly overhead, and the smoke is blown away by the concussive force of their cluster bomb munitions.

Then - Zolomon Ringo arrives.

>>6596543
So now Zolomon becomes Jesus, and we his lowly apostle.

:(

>>6596543
>Then Zolomon Ringo arrives

IT'S HEAT HAWK TIME

NO ZOLOMON NO

>>6596564
na were a just beging to develope newtype skills so in time we will be as good as him ^^

>>6596564
If the choice is between that and getting raped by tanks I choose that.

Let's jump back from the tanks.

He lands without controlling his drop speed with thrusters, as a result the force of his landing sends a great plume of dirt up in the air, the shockwave can be felt even by you and leaves a large crater, containing the flattened tank he landed on.

His mono-eye flashes [Gwoohn] and you can see the glow of his heat hawks before the dust settles.

Then he goes to work.

He leaps forwards into the midst of the first company of tanks, before their turrets can swing around to target him, he slides his first hawk underneath the first tank and flips it up, using it as a momentary barricade, the other tanks in the company fire at him hitting the tank instead. With a mighty horizontal swing he slices his improvised shield in half. Using the momentum he sidesteps the next salvo and slices cleanly the turret of the second tank off.
He leaps over the third salvo and brings both his axes down on his next target.
He then lifts them up, taking the broiling battle tank with it, and then uses it as an impromptu hammer and shield against the next tank.
The last tank he almost contemptuously kicks upwards and grabs with a free hand, he then spins around and hurls it a the second tank company.
Another tank is crushed by his furious attacks and they turn and flee. Only for Strauss to take them out as he descends.

KILLS:
You 4 Tanks
Zolomon Ringo: 6 Tanks
Strauss: 3 Tanks

YOUR ORDERS?

Regroup, of course.

>>6596543
That's our new standard equipment! Backpack for spare ammo, crackers, and flares... heathawk on the shoulder, and 120mm/bazooka in hand/on back hip

>>6596735
Kill the mothers. Nobody breaks our shit and gets away with it.

Shoot whatever we can.

>>6596779
>>6596735
the zaku has a single shot weapon thats modeled after the ww2 german panzerfoust

>>6596763

You check your suits overall status. The Rifles out of ammo, so you take the time to reload as you do so. Looks like a couple of piercing hits on non-vital systems, and the thrusters are practically melted and will be unusuable until repaired. Front Torso armour is practically gone though.

The three of your meet back up.
"You know how I was talking about the right and wrong time for you to do shit like that? Well, THAT was the right time."
Says Strauss to Zolomon, he then turns to you.

"Don't feel bad about it kid, these guys are a lot smarter than the dregs we've been dealing with up till now. The company used one squad as bait and the other two as an ambush force, we've got to be careful from now on!"

You acknoledge him and the three of you watch the exchanges of fire trail off as the feds launch a full retreat signal using flares.

>>6596543

That picture. Next time we need to loadup like that.

Let's get the situation. If all's quiet, head back to the Dabude to reload and repair.

Zaku brofist Zolomon and strauss for the save.

Later on, as damaged units are cycled through for repair you are going through your data recorder from the aerial battle earlier with the Saberfish. Watching it again, you can begin to see how it would even be physically possible to make those maneouvers, though you don't think you could do it yourself.
You spot what appears to be a unit or pilot symbol on the front of the plane just in front of the cockpit.
You'll have to look out for this in the future.

YOU ARE CURRENTLY IN THE MS BAY OF THE ROTER MOND ARE THERE ANY MODIFICATIONS OR CHANGES IN LOADOUT YOU WOULD WISH TO PERFORM?

>>6596990
Request permission to come in for repair. This is a military outfit after all.

>>6596999
>>6596927
>>6596812
>>6596779

This? :3

>>6596999

Get our paint job redone and kill notches applied.

See if we can't get one of those little panzerfaust alikes for SHTF situations, our leg missiles refilled and maybe a bit more dakka.

>>6596543
hahaha that Zaku is even demonstrating proper trigger discipline

oh Zeon, I heart you

We need some way to carry more ammo + grenades.

i dont think the smg/gl launcher combo is out yet XD

>>6596999
Get tooled up similar to the image in >>6596543

>>6596999

Repairs, especially with our thrusters all shot, see what other intel we cna scrounge up.

Discussion with the guys about that crazy fighter guy.

>>6597019

That's an F2 upgrade package, that wont be finished until June/July. Including the Rifle and Panzerfausts.

You COULD however switch your normal shield out for a Punching Shield however, since a fair number of Zaku I's are currently sporting them. [pic related.]

As for extra carrying space, you talk with the techs about enlarging the capacity of your hip mounted hardpoints and they seem to think that they can jury rig something up.

>>6597225
>>6597225
ZAKU I punching shield!? DO ET FAGGET!

>>6597225
i second the Vexor Face, let's get a punch shield

>>6597276

I think you'll find for /m/ related subjects this is the true DO EEET FAGGORT macro.

>>6597225
haveing that wont hurt...i think

>>6597225

Sounds good. :D

The punch shield sounds like it could be fun.

Yeah. Let's go with that punching shield and increase our carrying capacity.

You leave the engineers to pimp your ride as you get the lowdown on the tactical situation from Smadge Strauss.

"Seems like a couple of Federation Battalions are still running about the place after they retreated from an initial assault on the Zeon landing zone that they were understrength for thanks to us. They're understrength, but they've probably got more combat experiance in a post minovsky particle era than any federation unit currently. Anyway, in the morning we'll be reaching the resort town of Truth or Consequences and after we've secured the town we'll supposedly be able to get a day or R&R."

Your unit is put on reserve and your resolve to get some sleep.

TO BE CONITNUED

GG everybody. For those of you wanting more out of MS segments, expect some more tommorow at the usual time.

>>6597468

I'm kinda glad it ended right now. Now I get to see Men who stare at goats AND have my Zeon fix.

>>6597439
