[===========================|Introduction|============================]
/ \------------/ \
Mobile Suit Gundam: Encounters in Space is the long-awaited sequel
to the mostly sub-par Playstation 2 game, Mobile Suit Gundam: Journey
to Jaburo. What had been anticipated as one of the most promising
Gundam games ever to hit the states, Encounters in Space has a little
something to offer everybody. What was anticipated as just the sequel
of Journey to Jaburo became so much more. Instead of just covering the
last one-third of the animated series Mobile Suit Gundam, Encounters in
Space also dabbles into Gundam 0080, Gundam 0083, and Blue Destiny
Unit. The game even provides coverage for characters who have never had
voices in mainstream Gundam before with coverage of Space, To the End
of a Flash, and many notable aces from Mobile Suit Variation, and even
Gundam: The Ride. Overall, Encounters in Space is one of the best
Gundam games released to date.
\ /-------------\ /
[===========================|Game Controls|===========================]
/ \-------------/ \
Movement and control of your unit while playing Encounters in Space
is done with the game's controller... Ya know, just like every other
game in existence. But, there are two different modes of play with two
fundamentally different methods of control. The "Route Tube" mode is
the first mode of play where your unit is pretty much on auto-pilot.
The unit you are playing will constantly move forward during Route Tube
mode and the task to move them around debris and attack enemies as they
fly to their destination will fall to you. The second type of play is
the "Battle Sphere." The unit you play will typically enter the Battle
Sphere after reaching a specific destination in the Route Tube, but
some missions are pretty much done completely in Battle Sphere mode. In
the Battle Sphere, you have complete control of the actions of your
unit. It will not constantly move forward like in the Route Tube.

During game play there will be a whole bunch of stuff that will be
on screen that you should pay attention to in addition to all the crazy
mobile suit pilots looking to gun you down. So lets have a look at what
you'll be seeing most of the time during game play... or at last an
ASCII-fied rendition of what you'll be seeing most of the time during
game play.

There we go! Isn't it great! So what does it all mean? Well lets
start from the upper-left and make our way over and down while I
explain exactly what the heck all those blocks, and numbers, and other
miscellany actually represent.
--The first thing you will notice in the upper-left corner is the
unit's Health Gauge. This gauge represents the unit's armor. As you
take damage from enemy attacks, running into stuff like a moron, or any
other way you generally take a beating, the Health Gauge will deplete
from right to left. When you have about 25% of your Health remaining
your unit will begin to spark due to its heavy damage. When the Health
Gauge is completely empty your unit is destroyed, and will explode just
to drive that point home. Game over, fool!
--Directly under the Health Gauge is the Shield Gauge. This gauge will
display the general condition of the shield your unit may be carrying.
Not all units have shields, so not all units will have a Shield Gauge.
If your unit receives damage, and it was not attacking when hit, the
damage will usually be deducted from your Shield Gauge instead of your
unit's Life Gauge. If the shield becomes damaged to the point where the
Shield Gauge is empty, the shield will explode in a purple flash and
your unit will be stunned and knocked prone for a second. The Shield
Gauge will now flash red and read "BREAK!," meaning your shield is
totally broken and all further damage will drain directly from your
Health Gauge. Wise use of your shield could make the difference of
success or failure in a mission.
--Under the Shield Gauge is the Special Gauge. The Special Gauge will
slowly fill up as the mission goes on. The Special Gauge is split into
three separate bars. When at least one bar becomes full, the words
"SPECIAL ATTACK" will appear under the Special Gauge, signaling that
you are able to use the unit's Special Attack. Special Attacks are used
by holding down the R1 and R2 buttons and pressing Square. Some units
do not have a Special Attack, while some units have different Special
Attacks depending on how many bars are filled when a Special Attack is
used.
--In the top center of the screen is the SCORE counter. As you blow
crap up you will get a numerical value added to your score depending on
what you just fragged. (The points you earn for defeating an enemy unit
are the unit's deployment cost with two zeroes tagged on the end.) The
more crap you blow up, the higher your score will be. Your score will
be used at the end of each mission to rank your game play. High scores
will unlock extra goodies, so aim for as high a score as possible!
--In the upper-right corner of the screen will be the Time displays.
The first time display (the one that says "TIME") will display how long
you have been playing the current mission. In some missions there may
be a time limit (that's the yellow one that says "LIMIT"), which will
count down until the end of the mission.
--On the left side of the screen if you have locked onto a target, or
there are targets to defend, they will be displayed here. The defending
target's Health Gauge will be displayed here and as it takes damage it
will deplete, turning different colors (green, yellow and finally red).
The name of the defense target will be under their Health Gauge. Take
the defense of your allies seriously, as their destruction will usually
ensure the failure of the mission.
--If an enemy, or ally unit, or even your pilot has something to say to
you, a Communication Window will appear in the upper right-center of
the screen. The character will speak their mind, and when they are
done, the Communications Window will close.
--When you lock onto an enemy unit the information on them will be
displayed in the center of the left side of the screen. You will be
able to see their Health Gauge and the model number of the mobile suit
or the class of ship you are locked onto. You will also see a counter
of how far away your target is (in meters) from your unit.
--Sometimes during some missions, an icon that says "SUPPORT" will
flash on the right side center of the screen. This indicator is the
Support Lamp, and when it lights up it is indicating that there is an
allied unit that is available to come in and help you out. Pressing the
Select Button will request support and call that ally in to assist you.
An ally will only offer support for a limited amount of time, so if you
don't answer them promptly they will eventually stop offering to
support you.
--Underneath where the Support Lamp will appear is the Multiple Lock-On
Queue. By pressing and holding down the Square Button you will activate
Multi-lock mode. A large square window will appear allowing you to lock
onto multiple targets at once. For each target you are locked onto a
"Q" will appear in the Multi Lock-On Queue. When you release the Square
Button, you will fire on all the targets you locked onto with your
unit's main weapon. Firing your unit's main weapon using Multi-lock
will slightly decrease the damage the shots will deal to whatever they
hit, but it will not expend any of the main weapons ammunition when
fired, so it is incredibly useful for managing ammo and wreaking mass
havoc at the same time.
--In the lower-left corner is the radar. It will display information on
the enemies and allies zooming around the battlefield. Your unit is the
green triangle in the center of the radar's circle. Enemy units will be
displayed as red circles, and allied units will be displayed as blue
circles on the radar.
--Right above the radar in the lower-left corner is the Damage
Indicator. It's nothing special really, just a little orange-yellow box
that says "DMG" that will appear for a few seconds after your unit has
taken damage resulting in a decrease in your unit's Health Gauge. It is
just an indicator to let you know your unit has recently taken damage;
that's all it does.
--In the bottom center of the screen is the units Thruster Gauge. As
you use the unit's thrusters to get an extra boost of speed or barrel
roll the thrust gauge will start to fill up. When the thrusters are not
in use the gauge will start to deplete again. If the Thruster Gauge
should become full, the engines will "OVERHEAT!" and the bar will flash
yellow and you will not be able to use the unit's thrusters again until
the Thruster Gauge is completely empty again, which will take several
seconds.
--In the lower-right corner is the weapon information boxes. The first
box is the display for the Main Weapon. It displays a small picture of
the type of weapon you are using and how many shots are remaining in
the weapon. When a weapon runs out of ammunition it must be reloaded,
which takes a few seconds to do, during which the weapon will be
unusable. On the other hand, most beam weapons recharge slowly on their
own over time, regaining a charge every few seconds. When your unit
draws its melee weapon, it will switch to a display of your melee
weapon instead, showing that you can not use your main weapon again
until you take it out again. Also, when you prepare for a Special
Attack it will display a graphic to show that, when you next press
Square, you will execute a Special Attack.
--Below the main weapon display is the Sub Weapon display. This will
display a picture of the type of sub weapon your unit has (if it even
has a sub weapon) and the amount of ammunition remaining. When your sub
weapon runs out of ammunition it must be reloaded, which takes a few
seconds to do, during which the sub weapon will be unusable.
\ /---------------\ /
[==========================|Statistics List|==========================]
/ \---------------/ \
Here are the statistics for the pilots, units, and mobile suit
weaponry. That's all there really is to it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pilot Stats
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This section will detail the attributes and special skills of all of
the pre-made pilots in the game, and explain what these attributes do
and contribute to:
--Shoot: This statistic measures how well the pilot performs when
firing a ranged weapon. It will increase the Strength of any weapon
that is equipped on a unit, as well as allow the pilot to be able to
multi-lock onto more targets up to a maximum of eight (or a maximum of
nine with the special skill Six Sense).
--Fight: This statistic is a measurement of how skilled the pilot is in
close combat. A higher Fight increases the Fight of the unit being
piloted resulting in increased damage dealt by melee weapon attacks, as
well as performing attacks with melee weapons at a faster rate. It will
also decrease the amount of the Thruster Gauge consumed when boosting
forward during a melee attack, increase the distance that can be
traveled and the rate of speed you will travel at.
--Guard: This statistic is a measurement of the pilot's ability to
defend himself against incoming enemy attacks. It will increase the
Armor statistic of a unit, and slightly reduce damage taken, enabling
the unit to take more damage and still survive.
--Mobility: This statistic measures the pilot's ability to fly the unit
they are assigned. A higher Mobility skill will increase the Mobility
and Maneuver of any unit, granting a greater top speed, and faster
turning, as well as a slower decrease in the Thruster Gauge when using
the thrusters and performing barrel rolls.
--Special Skills: These are special abilities that the pilot possesses.
Each pilot has their own unique set of characteristics that make them
who they are. For information on what each individual skill does see
the Mission Mode Create-A-Pilot Explanation section in the Mission Mode
area. A pilot can only have a total of six Special Skills.

Earth Federal Forces Unit Stats
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
These are the statistics for the Earth Federation Space Forces units
that you will be able to pilot in the game. What directly follows is an
explanation of what statistics are measured:
--FIGHT: The attack power of the unit's close combat weapon, as well as
how far the unit will travel forward when it makes a melee attack. If
the unit does not have the ability to attack in close combat it will
have "NONE" in place of a numerical value. The type of melee attack the
unit uses, if any, will be listed in brackets next to the value.
--MAIN WEAPON: The attack power of the unit's main weapon, if the unit
has fixed weaponry. The unit's main weapon will be listed in brackets,
along with the maximum ammunition count in parentheses. This statistic
will not be listed for units that choose their weapon from the weapons
list, as those are listed in the Weapon Stats section.
--SUB WEAPON: The attack power of the unit's sub weapon. If the unit
does not have a sub weapon it will have "NONE" instead of a numerical
value.
--MANEUVER: The agility and maneuverability of the unit.
--MOBILITY: The speed of the unit.
--ARMOR: The toughness of the unit's armor.
--SHIELD: This is the strength of the unit's shield, if it has one. If
the unit does not have a shield it will have "NONE" listed instead. If
the units shield is an I-Field it will have "[I-FIELD]" listed next to
the strength of the shield. An I-Field will nullify any ranged beam
attack against the unit.
--DEPLOY COST: How many deployment points it takes to deploy the unit
alone. If the words "[LARGE]" appear next to the unit's points cost
than that unit is a large unit. You can only deploy one large unit in a
team.
--SPECIAL ATTACK: The Special Attack of the unit and a description of
what the attack does. Some units have multiple Special Attacks
depending on how many full bars are in the Special Gauge, so the amount
of bars that it costs to use the attack are listed in brackets. Some
Special Attacks will be dependent on what weapon is equipped, so
"DEPENDANT ON WEAPON" will be listed. Some units, after using certain
Special Attacks, will have their Special Gauge "BREAK!", which means
that the Special Gauge will no longer charge and no other Special
Attacks can be used for the duration of the mission. Some units do not
have a Special Attack, so "NONE" will be listed.
So here are the stats for the Earth Federation Forces units in the
game:
RB-79 Ball:
-----------
A combat pod developed to support the GM, the RB-79 is equipped with
a low recoil cannon on a top mounted turret. It was heavily used in the
Battle of Solomon and A Baoa Qu for medium and long-range fire support.
FIGHT: 3.0 [Manipulator Claws]
MAIN WEAPON: 3.5 [Recoilless Cannon (24)]
SUB WEAPON: NONE
MANEUVER: 3.0
MOBILITY: 1.0
ARMOR: 1.0
SHIELD: NONE
DEPLOY COST: 15
SPECIAL ATTACK: [One Bar] Rapid-Fire - Fires the recoilless cannon
three times in quick succession.
RB-79K Ball K Type:
-------------------
A variant of the RB-79 Ball, the RB-79K's manipulator design has
been redesigned, and it is equipped with two cannons. This model was
deployed near the end of the One Year War.
FIGHT: 5.0 [Manipulator Claws]
MAIN WEAPON: 3.5 [Twin-Linked Recoilless Cannon (24)]
SUB WEAPON: NONE
MANEUVER: 3.0
MOBILITY: 1.0
ARMOR: 1.0
SHIELD: NONE
DEPLOY COST: 15
SPECIAL ATTACK: [One Bar] Rapid-Fire - Fires the twin 180mm cannons
three times in quick succession.
RGM-79 GM:
----------
A Federation mass-produced mobile suit, the RGM-79's design was
based on the RX-78-2 Gundam, but cost-cutting measures forced a
reduction of features. It was extensively used in the Battle of Solomon
and A Baoa Qu.
FIGHT: 7.0 [Beam Saber]
SUB WEAPON: 2.5 [Head Vulcans (60)]
MANEUVER: 4.5
MOBILITY: 4.5
ARMOR: 2.0
SHIELD: 3.5
DEPLOY COST: 30
SPECIAL ATTACK: [One Bar] - DEPENDANT ON WEAPON
RX-75 Guntank:
--------------
More like a tank than a mobile suit, the RX-75 was the first mobile
suit developed under the RX Project. Equipped with 180mm cannons on its
shoulders and quadruple missile launchers in its arms, it proved
effective for long-range fire support.
FIGHT: 4.0 [Charging Tackle]
MAIN WEAPON: 6.5 [180mm Cannons (12)]
SUB WEAPON: 5.0 [Four-Tube Rocket Launcher (24)]
MANEUVER: 3.0
MOBILITY: 1.5
ARMOR: 3.5
SHIELD: NONE
DEPLOY COST: 40
SPECIAL ATTACK: [One Bar] Full-Fire - Simultaneously fires the
Guntanks 180mm cannons and rocket launchers three times each.
RGM-79GS GM Command:
--------------------
A later production version of the GM, this model was designed for
improved basic performance. The GM Command is very different externally
due to an upgraded armor design. Introduced late in the One Year War,
only a few RGM-79GS suits were produced.
FIGHT: 7.0 [Beam Saber]
SUB WEAPON: 2.5 [Head Vulcans (60)]
MANEUVER: 5.0
MOBILITY: 3.0
ARMOR: 2.5
SHIELD: 4.0
DEPLOY COST: 50
SPECIAL ATTACK: [One Bar] - DEPENDANT ON WEAPON
RGC-83 GM Cannon II:
--------------------
A medium-range support mobile suit developed after the One Year War,
the RGC-83 boasted high offensive and defensive capabilities thanks to
the two beam canons on its shoulders and its Chobham armor
construction. Two units were assigned to the Albion during the Delaz
Conflict.
FIGHT: 7.0 [Beam Saber]
SUB WEAPON: 2.5 [Head Vulcans (60)]
MANEUVER: 5.0
MOBILITY: 3.0
ARMOR: 2.9
SHIELD: 4.9
DEPLOY COST: 70

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Principality of Zeon Unit Stats
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
These are the statistics for the Principality of Zeon units that you
will be able to pilot in the game. What directly follows is an
explanation of what statistics are measured:
--FIGHT: The attack power of the unit's close combat weapon. If the
unit does not have the ability to attack in close combat it will have
"NONE" in place of a numerical value.
--MAIN WEAPON: The attack power of the unit's main weapon, if the unit
has fixed weaponry. The unit's main weapon will be listed in brackets,
along with the maximum ammunition count in parentheses. This statistic
will not be listed for units that choose their weapon from the weapons
list, as those are listed in the Weapon Stats section.
--SUB WEAPON: The attack power of the unit's sub weapon. If the unit
does not have a sub weapon it will have "NONE" instead of a numerical
value. The unit's sub weapon will be listed in brackets, along with the
ammunition count in parentheses.
--MANEUVER: The agility and maneuverability of the unit.
--MOBILITY: The speed of the unit.
--ARMOR: The toughness of the unit's armor.
--SHIELD: This is the strength of the unit's shield, if it even has
one. If the unit does not have a shield it will have "NONE" listed
instead. If the units shield is an I-Field it will have "[I-FIELD]"
listed next to the strength of the shield. An I-Field will nullify any
ranged beam attack against the unit.
--DEPLOY COST: How many deployment points it takes to deploy the unit
alone. If the words "[LARGE]" appear next to the unit's points cost
than that unit is a large unit. You can only deploy one large unit in a
team.
--SPECIAL ATTACK: The Special Attack of the unit and a description of
what the attack does. Some units have multiple Special Attacks
depending on how many full bars are in the Special Gauge, so the amount
of bars that it costs to use the attack are listed in brackets. Some
Special Attacks will be dependent on what weapon is equipped, so
"DEPENDANT ON WEAPON" will be listed. Some units, after using certain
Special Attacks, will have their Special Gauge "BREAK!", which means
that the Special Gauge will no longer charge and no other Special
Attacks can be used for the duration of the mission. Some units do not
have a Special Attack, so "NONE" will be listed.

Extra Unit Stats
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This section will detail some of the extra stuff available for
Versus Mode. When this game was released in Japan, several Extra
goodies were released online for those Japanese players with an
internet-capable Playstation 2 and an external Playstation 2 hard drive
to store the downloaded stuff on. And there was much rejoicing! But,
because on the American front, the Playstation 2's online capability is
barely out of its infancy stage the games makers decided to put six of
the Extra units available into the game outright. Wasn't that nice of
them? Unfortunately, I do not have information on the stats of the
Japanese only units but just to have a feeling of completeness I have
included them anyway.
What directly follows is an explanation of what statistics are
measured:
--FIGHT: The attack power of the unit's close combat weapon. If the
unit does not have the ability to attack in close combat it will have
"NONE" in place of a numerical value.
--MAIN WEAPON: The attack power of the unit's main weapon, if the unit
has fixed weaponry. The unit's main weapon will be listed in brackets,
along with the maximum ammunition count in parentheses. This statistic
will not be listed for units that choose their weapon from the weapons
list, as those are listed in the Weapon Stats section.
--SUB WEAPON: The attack power of the unit's sub weapon. If the unit
does not have a sub weapon it will have "NONE" instead of a numerical
value. The unit's sub weapon will be listed in brackets, along with the
ammunition count in parentheses.
--MANEUVER: The agility and maneuverability of the unit.
--MOBILITY: The speed of the unit.
--ARMOR: The toughness of the unit's armor.
--SHIELD: This is the strength of the unit's shield, if it even has
one. If the unit does not have a shield it will have "NONE" listed
instead. If the units shield is an I-Field it will have "[I-FIELD]"
listed next to the strength of the shield. An I-Field will nullify any
ranged beam attack against the unit.
--DEPLOY COST: How many deployment points it takes to deploy the unit
itself. If the words "[LARGE]" appear next to the units points cost
than that unit is a large unit. You can only deploy one large unit in a
team.
--SPECIAL ATTACK: The Special Attack of the unit and a description of
what the attack does. Some units have multiple Special Attacks
depending on how many full bars are in the Special Gauge, so the amount
of bars that it costs to use the attack are listed in brackets. Some
Special Attacks will be dependent on what weapon is equipped, so
"DEPENDANT ON WEAPON" will be listed. Some units, after using certain
Special Attacks, will have their Special Gauge "BREAK!", which means
that the Special Gauge will no longer charge and no other Special
Attacks can be used for the duration of the mission. Some units do not
have a Special Attack, so "NONE" will be listed.
So here are the stats for the extra units in the game:
GAT-X105 Aile Strike Gundam:

mobile suits in the game. Here is what the weapon's statistics measure:
--STRENGTH: The strength of the weapon. The higher the weapons
strength, the more damage each individual round will do if it hits.
--AMMO: The total amount of ammunition the weapon holds at full
capacity. The exact number of maximum rounds the weapon has will be
displayed in parentheses after the number value.
--FIRE RATE: The rate of speed at which the projectile fired from the
weapon travels.
--RELOAD: How quickly solid-round firing weapons reload when it runs
out of ammunition, or how quickly beam weapons will recharge their
spent shots.
--SPECIAL: Any special added effects the weapon's projectile has when
fired. "Rapid Fire" indicates that the unit fires multiple projectiles
in one attack. "Pierce" means that the projectile will continue to
travel through its target after hitting them, potentially hitting other
units behind them. "Spray" means the projectile consists of several
small rounds in a cluster that will spread further apart from one
another as they travel forward. "Explosive" indicates that the
projectile will explode on impact, damaging anything caught up in the
blast. If the weapon has no added effect "NONE" will be listed.
--SPECIAL ATTACK: The Special Attack the weapon will give to a unit
that's Special Attack is dependent upon the equipped weapon. There will
also be a description of the Special Attacks effects.
Not all weapons can be assigned to all units. Some weaker units are
just incapable of using many stronger weapons and beam weapons. Also,
some units, such as fighter jets and mobile armors, cannot be assigned
weapons at all because they don't have arms to hold them -which is
pretty damned logical if you start to think about it.
Note that all weapons also have a deployment cost that will be added
to the base deployment cost of the unit it is assigned to. However, the
weapons do not have a flat deployment cost. The cost of the weapon may
increase or decrease depending on what unit it is assigned to. So here

[========================|White Base Missions|========================]
/ \-------------------/ \
It is the year 0079 of the Universal Century. Mankind has begun to
immigrate into massive space colonies that sit safely in areas of
gravitational stability in Earth's orbit, a new home for the human race
amongst the stars. However, all is not well in space. The cluster of
colonies furthest from the Earth, Side 3, declares themselves the
Principality of Zeon and wages a massive war with the ruling Earth
Federation. Despite the Zeon gaining an initial advantage with their
mobile suit technology the war has still been fought to a bitter
stalemate. The Earth Federation struggles to catch up with the Zeon and
create mobile suits of its own, and they finally create their own
prototypes several months into the war. But, through a fateful
encounter during a Zeon attack on his home colony of Side 7, a young
civilian youth commandeers the Earth Federation's most advanced mobile
suit, the Gundam, to fight for everything he holds dear. This is the
main walkthrough for the main mode of game play, White Base Mode. In
this game mode you will follow the story of the SCV-70 assault carrier
White Base and her crew, playing as the Earth Federation Forces ace
pilot Amuro Ray, the pilot of the feared RX-78-2 Gundam.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
White Base Tutorial
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
When you select to play White Base Mode there will be three separate
Tutorial missions that will be listed that you can play. The Tutorial
missions will teach you the game's basic controls in an actual game
play situation, so I recommend playing through them all just to get the
hang of things. Not to mention you can unlock yourself a few things
while you're at it, so you'll have to do it anyway! The controls in the
Tutorial missions are all based on Controller Configuration A so if you
changed the controller's button configuration it won't jibe with the
Tutorial. The Tutorial missions all take place during the time before
the White Base first reaches Earth, so it pre-dates the action in the
main White Base Mode missions by several months.
Tutorial 1:
-----------
The first Tutorial will have you, the as of now inexperienced Amuro
Ray, in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle (Gundam). You will
be in Route Tube Mode and are being tutored by Ryu Jose, who is in a
FF-X7 Core Fighter, in the ways of piloting and combat. You will have a
message displayed on the screen saying that you move your unit with the
D-Pad or Left Analog stick, and can use the unit's thrusters by holding
down the Cross (X) Button. When you use the thrusters, the Thrust Gauge
at the bottom of the screen will start to fill up. When you cease use
of the thrusters the Thrust Gauge will begin to decrease, but if the
Thrust Gauge should fill up from over-use, the unit's thrusters will
overheat and you will not be able to use the thrusters again until the
Thrust Gauge has completely emptied. Once you have read the message
press the Cross (X) Button to take if off the screen and continue the
mission. You will travel forward through a debris field, so move the
Gundam around to avoid smashing into rocks and other drifting space
junk. You won't be able to fire any of the Gundam's weapons yet, so
just move around. After nineteen seconds go by you will get another
message displayed on the screen. This message will instruct you that
you can press the Square Button to fire the unit's main weapon, but if
the weapon's ammunition should be depleted to 0 when firing, the weapon
will have to reload over a period of time. You can also press the L1
Button to lock onto a target to increase the likelihood of hitting the
target when you fire your weapon. Once you have read that message you
can continue the game by pressing the Cross (X) Button. The Gundam will
continue to move forward, and two small meteors will come into view,
which you should lock onto and destroy with your Beam Rifle. After the
two meteors have been destroyed a third message will be displayed
instructing you on hand-to-hand combat. By pressing the Triangle Button
you will enable use of the unit's melee weapon, which you can attack
with up to three times in a combo attack by pressing the Triangle
Button again. Press the Cross (X) Button again to clear the message and
get back to playing. You will travel forward, where another meteor will
come into view. Lock onto the meteor and when the Gundam is about one
hundred meters from the meteor press the Triangle button to slash the
rock with the Gundam's beam saber. Another meteor will come into view
soon, so destroy it with your beam saber as well. Now you will get a
fourth message instructing you of the way to use the multiple lock-on
feature of the unit's main weapon. Hold down the Square Button and the
multi-lock window will open. Any potential targets that are inside the
window will be locked onto, which will be denoted by a "Q" in the
multi-lock queue, and when you release the Square Button you will fire
the main weapon at all of the targets that you currently have queued.
Press the Cross (X) Button to return to the game, and hold down the
Square Button to open the multi-lock window. Soon four meteors will
come into view and you will lock onto all four of them, so release the
Square Button to destroy them all. Hold down the Square Button again
and soon the Gundam will make a right turn and five more meteors will
come into view, so destroy them all with your multi-lock attack. A new
message will now appear on the screen instructing you on the use of the
unit's sub-weapons. You attack with the sub-weapons by pressing the
Circle Button, but some units do not have sub-weapons. Sub-weapons also
have ammunition like the main weapons, and when they have 0 ammo they
will have to reload. Press the Cross (X) Button and you will return
back to normal game play. The Gundam will turn left and a piece of
green wreckage will come into view. Lock onto the piece of junk and use
the Gundam's head vulcan sub-weapons to destroy the wreckage. Another
hunk of junk will be in the distance, so destroy this heap with your
head vulcans also. Continuing forward again you will come across
another piece of debris, which you should destroy with your head
vulcans. Another tutorial message will be displayed, this one telling
you how to use the unit's Special Attack. When the Special Gauge in the
top-right corner of the screen has "Special Attack" listed underneath
it you will be able to use the unit's Special Attack. Hold down the R1
and R2 button simultaneously to prepare for a Special Attack, and once
the unit has deployed for a Special Attack just press the Square Button
to execute the attack. Press the Cross (X) Button to return to the game
and hold down the R1 and R2 buttons to prepare the Gundam's Dual Hyper
Bazooka Special Attack. A large chunk of wreckage will come into view,
so use your Special Attack to destroy it. Soon another large piece of
debris will float into view, so destroy it with your Special Attack as
you continue forward. You will get the final message, which basically
just tells you it's okay to go nuts and use whichever attacks you want
in the debris field up ahead. There will be fourteen pieces of debris
and meteors ahead, so feel free to just blast away. After passing the
debris field Amuro and Ryu will spot an enemy Zeon fleet. They will
decide to attack, but Amuro realizes it would be strategically better
to attack with the sun behind them. Ryu agrees with the plan and thinks
Amuro is really starting to use his head. The first Tutorial will come
to an end, and you will be returned to the main menu.
Tutorial 2:
-----------
Picking up where the first Tutorial mission ended, Amuro Ray in his
RX-78-2 Gundam armed with a Beam Rifle (Gundam) will head forward in
Route Tube Mode past the White Base, which is circling around an enemy
fleet. Ryu Jose will also be traveling forward with you in a FF-X7 Core
Fighter. After about six seconds you will pass the White Base and get
your first training message, which will explain the pointer icons that
point to important targets that are off screen. Important enemy targets
will be denoted by a red arrow on the edge of the screen pointing in
the direction of the enemy, where important allied units (usually
targets you must defend) will be pointed out by a light green arrow.
Allied units that you must protect will also have their Health Gauge
displayed on a box on the left side of the screen, such as the White
Base's Health Gauge is displayed now. Press the Cross (X) Button when
you have finished reading the message to continue with the mission. The
Gundam will continue to fly forward for a little while and then take a
left turn around the back of a large asteroid. There will be three
meteors that you can destroy if you want as the Gundam heads towards
the enemy fleet, which will consist of one Musai battleship and one
Papua supply ship, as well as eight gray crates between the two ships.
As the Zeon fleet comes into view at twenty-two seconds you will
receive a message reminding you that you can lock-onto a target with
the L1 Button, and switch to another target by pressing L1 again. Press
the Cross (X) Button and another message will come up that informs you
that you can use a much more precise method to manually switch to
specific targets by moving the Right Analog Stick in the direction of
the preferred target. Pressing the Cross (X) Button again will bring up
a third message which says that you can deactivate lock-ons by pressing
the L2 Button, but you can turn lock-ons back on by pressing either the
L1 or L2 Button. Press the Cross (X) Button to finally get back to the
action. As you move past the two ships three more meteors will come
into view, so blast them if you wish. You will make a wide right turn
and turn around to prepare to do another run on the two enemy ships.
You will head forward past the Papua and approach the eight crates that
are lined up between the two ships. You will now get a message
explaining action targets. An object that has a yellow target reticle
around it is an action target. By pressing the Square Button while you
are locked onto an action target you will interact with that target in
some way. Press the Cross (X) Button and the Gundam will continue
forward. You can try out the use of action targets on the crates, and
you will grab the crate and carry it with you. When you get close to
the Musai you will get another tutorial message that deals with action
targets. This one will explain that some ships will have action targets
and you can use the Square Button to land your unit on the battleship,
although you cannot do it at this time because you are in Route Tube
Mode. Press the Cross (X) Button to continue with the mission, and the
Gundam will fly past the Musai and make a wide right turn back around
to the front of the two battleships. You will start heading directly
towards the front of the two ships, and the Musai will open fire with
its main cannons right before another message pops up. This message
will instruct you on how to perform a barrel roll, which is an
extremely useful technique that can be used to dodge enemy attacks and
break an enemies lock on your unit. By tapping the Cross (X) Button
twice in quick succession the unit you are in will perform a roll. If
you hold the Left Analog Stick or press the D-Pad in a certain
direction while executing a barrel roll then the unit will move in that
direction when it rolls. However, be cautious not to overuse the barrel
roll technique, as it will consume a large amount of the Thrust Gauge
whenever it is used. When you are done reading press the Cross (X)
Button to remove the message and you will continue forward and when you
get near the enemy fleet you will enter the Battle Sphere mode of play.
The second you enter the Battle Sphere a five minute countdown will
begin, and another information display will appear on the screen. This
series of messages will detail the control differences from the Route
Tube to the Battle Sphere. The first message informs you that holding
the D-Pad and Left Analog Stick up will now move you forwards and
holding them down will now make your unit go backpedal. Press the Cross
(X) Button to display the next message, which tells you that holding
the D-Pad or Left Analog Stick to the left or right will move your unit
to the left or the right, and if you are locked onto a target you will
rotate around that target. Press the Cross (X) Button again to bring up
the third message, which states that pressing the R1 Button will cause
your unit to ascend and pressing the R2 Button will cause you unit to
descend. If you are locked onto a target will ascending or diving your
unit will tilt so that the target stays in view. Press the Cross (X)
Button and you will return to normal play briefly and the Musai will
launch a volley of two large missiles at you. A new message will pop
up, this one informing you about the shield. A unit with a shield will
automatically assume a defensive stance and any damage that it takes
will be deducted from the unit's Shield Gauge instead of its Health
Gauge. However, if your unit is firing its main weapon when it is hit,
or if it is hit from behind, the damage will be deducted from the
Health Gauge, as the shield will not be in a position to absorb the
damage. Once the Shield Gauge is fully depleted the shield will be
destroyed, so all damage will be subtracted directly from you Health
Gauge. After you are done reading hit that Cross (X) Button and you
will now be free to do whatever you wish in the Battle Sphere for the
remainder of the five minute time limit. Ryu will fly around in the
Core Fighter shooting at the enemy ships, but he's extremely weak so he
won't be able to destroy them himself. You can now go and land outside
the bridge of the Musai, which will elicit the ship's captain to scream
out in horror, "A white mobile suit! Run!" Either destroy the Musai and
Papua, or just let the five minute time limit run out, and the second
Tutorial mission will end. Captain Bright will notice that the enemy
fleet has launched mobile suits and you will return to the main menu.
Tutorial 3:
-----------
Again, picking up right where the second Tutorial mission ended,
Amuro Ray is in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle (Gundam).
The White Base is under attack from enemy mobile suits, so you will get
to fight a real battle as your last training mission. You will begin
the mission in Route Tube Mode speeding towards the White Base, which
is under attack from a squad of three MS-06F Zaku IIs all armed with
Zaku Machineguns. You must protect the White Base from enemy attacks,
and its Health Gauge will be displayed on the left side of the screen.
If the White Base should loose all of its Health you will fail the
mission and be booted back to the main menu.
You will soon enter the Battle Sphere when you get near the White
Base, so quickly attack those three pesky Zaku IIs. Ryu Jose will
already be in the area in a FF-X7 Core Fighter, and he will attack the
Zaku IIs. After seventeen seconds go by Hayato Kobayashi will radio in
for support and a message will appear on the screen. The message
informs you that if the Support Lamp should appear on the right side of
the screen and begin to flash, then you have the option to call in
support from an allied unit by pressing the Select Button. Press the
Cross (X) Button to clear the message and you will return to normal
game play. You can call in Hayato in his RX-75 Guntank if you wish, and
he will help to destroy those Zaku IIs. After all three Zaku IIs are
destroyed Gadem will enter the area in his MS-05A Zaku I armed with a
Zaku Machinegun. Gadem is pretty tough for an old guy in a clunky old
Zaku I so, as Ryu advises, you should get into close range and attack
Gadem's Zaku I with the Gundam's beam saber. Keep slashing away at
Gadem's Zaku I and after it has lost all of its Health it will be
destroyed. Now Char Aznable will enter the area in his MS-06S(CA) Zaku
II Char Aznable Custom armed with a Zaku Machinegun. Char's Zaku II is
much tougher than Gadem's Zaku I was, but still the Gundam has an
incredible defense so you shouldn't have much trouble defeating him.
Just reduce Char's Zaku II to 10% of its Health Gauge and Bright will
tell Amuro to retreat. The final Tutorial mission will end and you will
return to the games main menu. For completing this third Tutorial you
will have unlocked the pilot Ryu Jose, and you will also have unlocked
the FF-X7 Core Fighter.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
White Base Movie Mode Walkthrough
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the main walkthrough for the main mode of game play, White
Base Mode. In this mode you will follow the actions of the White Base
after it has departed Earth from Jaburo, South America. Mainly based on
the third Mobile Suit Gundam movie, Mobile Suit Gundam: Encounters in
Space, you will play as the young Earth Federation ace pilot Amuro Ray,
the pilot of the feared RX-78-2 Gundam. As the One Year War comes to a
thunderous conclusion, only one question can be asked, and no answer is
certain... Who will survive?
Stage 1:
--------
After the perilous struggle to reach the Earth Federation Forces
headquarters of Jaburo in South America, the White Base has been
launched back into space. In their new role as the 13th Autonomous
Corps the White Base has a new mission, to act independently of the
main bulk of the Earth Federation Space Forces to confuse the enemy.
Shortly after leaving Earth the White Base is being trailed by a Zeon
Fleet. This mission starts out exactly like the opening movie of the
game. Let's see how well you can stack up to badass CG movie Amuro.
You will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam). You will be in Route Tube Mode for the first half of the
mission, and Sleggar Law in a FF-X7[Bst] Core Booster and Kai Shiden in
an RX-77-2 Guncannon with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon) will
automatically be supporting you for the moment. Sleggar will fire first
and Kai will chide him for jumping the gun. As you fly through the
Route Tube towards the first enemy Musai, two MS-09R Rick Doms with
Giant Bazookas will appear. Destroy them both quickly and when you get
close to the Musai use your multi-lock to quickly tear it apart with
your Beam Rifle. You have to be quick about it; otherwise Kai and
Sleggar will destroy the Musai first and steal the points for the kill.
You will go around the back of the first Musai (which should now be
destroyed) and hang out for a second before turning around and
continuing forward to a second Musai. Two more Rick Doms will attack
before you get to the Musai so destroy them quickly. When you get to
the Musai repeatedly use your multi-lock to take out different sections
of the Musai. You must hurry, though or Sleggar and Kai will destroy
this Musai as well. After the second Musai gets toasted you will
continue forward a bit more and find yourself hovering over a third
Musai.
You will enter the Battle Sphere once you fly over the third Musai,
and you will end up facing straight down over it. There will be three
Rick Doms guarding the Musai, so destroy them all. After fifty-one
seconds have passed in the mission Sleggar will ask you if you want him
to come in and support you. Do not accept his offer so you have time to
tear the Musai apart without his interference. After you destroy the
three Rick Doms, head towards the Musai. Take out the Musai's two
engines, destroy the Musai's three main cannons, destroy the combat
bridge, and even fly underneath the Musai and blast the Komusai in the
nosecone until it id destroyed and falls out. All of this is worth tons
of extra points. After all the individual parts of the Musai have been
taken out destroy the entire ship. A few seconds after the Musai has
been destroyed Captain Bright will notice that the Zanzibar that has
been trailing the White Base since they left Earth them has caught up
with them. Sleggar's Core Booster has taken damage, so he will return
to the White Base. Bright orders Sleggar to man the White Base's main
cannon. Sleggar agrees to do it, but only if the White Base charges
straight towards the Zanzibar.
On the Zanzibar, Char is annoyed that Dren's fleet couldn't hold out
longer. You will re-enter the Route Tube and fly past White Base,
heading towards the Zanzibar. There will be three individual Rick Doms
that will attack you as you head towards the Zanzibar, so destroy them.
You can even destroy the debris that will float by for 10 points! Whoo
hoo! Dodge the beam fire coming from the Zanzibar and as you draw close
to the ship a stray beam will come from left field, barely missing you
before something does a fly by. Whatever it is, it's fast!
You will now enter the Battle Sphere where you must fight Tokwan and
his MA-05 Bigro. You have five minutes to destroy the Bigro, otherwise
you fail the mission. After thirteen seconds go by, Kai will radio in
asking if you want him to support you. You can take him if you wish. As
for the Bigro, it may be fast but it isn't very maneuverable. The
Bigro's main tactic is to fly forward for awhile before turning around
to face you. When it lines up with you when it turns it will fire its
main cannon and missiles, or use its Special Attack before charging
forward. Fire at Bigro when it is heading away from you, and then wait
until it starts to turn around. When it turns around and charges you
shoot at it as it comes towards you, but be sure to barrel roll out of
the way of its beam fire and missiles. When the Bigro passes you up
either try to attack it with your beam saber or shoot it in the back as
it heads away from you. Don't stay in front of the Bigro when it is
heading straight towards you because it may attack you with its melee
attack, and those claw pinchers can do a good bit of damage. You should
also use your Special Attack when the Bigro is heading towards you and
you will knock off pretty substantial chunks of its Health Gauge. Once
the Bigro has lost all of its Health it will explode and the mission
will end.
Stage 2:
--------
The White Base has stopped in the neutral Riah Republic in Side 6.
Due to Riah's neutral status all hostilities between the Earth
Federation and Zeon are strictly forbidden in Side 6 airspace. However
Dozle Zabi has deployed the Conscon mobile assault force to ambush the
White Base as it leaves the relative safety provided by Side 6.
You will already be deployed in the RX-78-2 Gundam, armed with the
Beam Rifle (Gundam). You must make damn sure to guard the White Base
for the duration of the mission. If the White Base should be destroyed
you will fail the mission. The White Base's Health Gauge is located on
the left side of the screen, so be sure to keep a close eye on it. The
best way to keep the White Base safe is to quickly destroy the enemies
in the area. As the mission begins there will be several MS-09R Rick
Doms armed with Giant Bazookas in the area. After sixteen seconds go by
Hayato Kobayashi will offer to come in and support you in one of the
White Base's RX-77-2 Guncannons armed with a Custom Beam Rifle
(Guncannon). Quickly destroy the Rick Doms and listen to Amuro
mockingly count his kills off. After you have destroyed twelve Rick
Doms a cutscene will play.
With his fleets entire compliment of Rick Doms wiped out Conscon
decides to ram his Chivvay into the White Base in a kamikaze run. You
will re-enter the Battle Sphere and must destroy the charging Chivvay.
The White Base's Health Gauge will remain at the same amount that it
ended the first part of this mission with, so you must be diligent in
guarding it. There will be a two MS-06F Zaku II's armed with Zaku
Machineguns that will be flying around firing on White Base, so take
them out before tackling the Chivvay. A few Zaku II's will periodically
come one at a time, but after destroying six of them they will no
longer come. Now about destroying that Chivvay, the Chivvay has a great
deal of Health, so you should use your Special Attacks on the charging
ship. After you are out of Special Attack use your multi-lock to fire
multiple shots into the Chivvay. It will take the Chivvay just one
minute and forty seconds to catch up to the White Base and ram it, and
should the Chivvay ram the White Base it will automatically be
destroyed and you will fail the mission. So be damned quick about
destroying the Chivvay! After you have destroyed the Chivvay the
mission will end.
Stage 3:
--------
The Federation has commenced Operation Star One, a multi-phase plan
to blitz Zeon's space fortresses and overwhelm them with superior
forces. The first target is the enormous asteroid fortress of Solomon.
The Battle of Solomon has begun. Prepare for a very long and drawn out
engagement.
You will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam). You will fly past several Salamis battleships in Route Tube
Mode. There will be several Public fighter-bombers flying in formation
in front of you, and they will all launch their large missiles towards
Solomon before they break formation. The missiles will explode to
create a beam disruption field between Solomon and the main Federation
fleet. The Gundam will continue to travel forward and at twenty seconds
you will enter the Battle Sphere. You will have two Salamis battleships
in the are with you, which you must guard from attacking Zeon forces.
The two Salamis' Health Gauges are displayed on the left side of the
screen for your own convenience, but it doesn't matter if they are
destroyed. The enemies will consist of MS-09R Rick Doms armed with
Giant Bazookas and MS-06F-2 Zaku II F-2's armed with Zaku Machineguns,
as well as a steady barrage of large missiles coming from Solomon.
After thirty-five seconds have gone by Hayato Kobayashi one of the RX-
77-2 Guncannons, armed with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon), will ask
to come in and support you, so if you want him to help you out just go
on and hit that Select Button. After you have destroyed fifteen enemy
units, or if it has been two minutes since the mission began, you will
get a message from Fraw Bo saying the Tianem fleet is preparing to fire
the new weapon, and this part of the mission will end.
You are again in the Route Tube Mode, and be prepared to stay in it
for a little while because we're about to do a crazy trench run on
space fortress Solomon. Use of the multi-lock function to take care of
many targets quickly is highly recommended for this part of the
mission. There will be a ton of small things, such as gun turrets and
other doohickeys, on Solomon that will give you a few points if you can
destroy them, so try to blast as much as junk as possible. When the
segment begins, open your multi-lock and blast the four gun-turrets
surrounding the launch bay in the asteroid. You will continue forward,
so open the multi-lock and in a few seconds it will lock onto three
pieces of machinery, so wreck them. A Zaku II F-2 will enter from the
right side of the screen, so quickly destroy it. You will continue to
fly slowly forward towards another launch bay in Solomon's surface.
Open your multi-lock window and you will soon start to lock onto the
four gun turrets surrounding the launch bay, three bits of machinery
towards the large ridge in the background. Blast the gun turrets and
when you pass over the launch bay a Zaku II F-2 will come out of it, so
destroy it as you travel forward. A RB-79 Ball and an RGM-79 GM will
fly past you and head forward. A Zaku II F-2 will come out of the
launch bay in the wall of the asteroid, so destroy it before the GM or
Ball get it first. You will now take a hard turn right and speed up
dramatically as the Gundam enters a deep trench in the asteroids
surface, with the Ball and GM right in front of you. Three Gattle
fighters will come up from behind and launch their large missiles, so
use your multi-lock to take them out. Re-open your multi-lock and take
out two gun turrets on opposite sides of the trench walls. The GM will
be hit by a chunk of flying, flaming, debris and be destroyed as you
fly over a high ridge and rush over a large launch bay where a Chivvay
is preparing to launch. The Chivvay's captain will order his mobile
suit forces to buy him time while the ship tries to launch, and four
Zaku II F-2's will surround the ship and attack you. You can easily
destroy the Chivvay with the Gundam's Special Attack. You will fly to
the back of the ship, turn around and fly back to the front on the left
side of the Chivvay and around the front before heading back down the
right side of the Chivvay. You will then continue forward, whether you
destroyed the Chivvay or not, down the trench. After a few seconds you
will come to a large cave, where two GMs will be hovering outside
firing at a Rick Dom inside the cavernous asteroid. Destroy the Rick
Dom as you zoom into the cave entrance and dodge the rocks and
infrastructure as you continue forward. A sneaky Rick Dom will zoom out
from behind a rock, so blast his ass. As you continue down the tunnel a
Zaku II F-2 will also come out from behind a rock and attack, so waste
that mecha too. You will now exit the cave and return to the normal
trench. There will be a meteor missile that will launch outside the
trench, so use your multi-lock to destroy it. Three Rick Doms also
surround a launch bay cut into the asteroid's surface, so use your
multi-lock to destroy them as well. Continuing forward, you will have
to duck down a bit to avoid two trams coming from both sides of the
asteroid. Sleggar Law, in the FF-X7[Bst] Core Booster, will now meet up
with you in the trench. You will head out from the asteroid into space
before spinning around to face Solomon, where you will see many large
ports with a Musai launching from one. You will head back towards
Solomon and zoom under the launching Musai. You will now enter the
Battle Sphere.
There will already be a ton of enemies in the area waiting for you.
To start off, there will already be that Musai that just launched from
Solomon, which will move forward and to the right before it stops.
There will also be a Papua transport ship docked on the side of the
fortress. There will be a near constant supply of Gattle launching from
and zooming around the space fortress, but they really won't attack
you, they'll just fly around. However, there will be a bunch of Zaku II
F-2, Rick Doms, and MS-05A Zaku I's armed with Zaku Bazookas that will
attack you, but after you destroy seven of them they will stop coming.
There are several dozen gun turrets and machinery located all over the
wall of the asteroid. Each one of them is worth about 50 points, so you
can stack onto your score for quite awhile. If you destroy the Papua
transport docked near the fortress you will re-enter the route Tube and
force your way into Solomon, so put it off for awhile so you can
destroy other things. But, if you go more than four minutes and thirty
seconds without destroying the Papua you will enter the Route Tube make
your way into the space fortress anyway.
You will re-enter the Route Tube and enter one of the launch bays,
and take the tunnel in the back. The tunnel is a small cramped space,
so you have limited room to maneuver in. Two Balls will come up the
side and get in front of you. There will be a gun turret in the left
wall, so quickly blast it. There will be a blast door in the way, but
one of the Balls will blast the right side of the door open, and
continue through. Hurry up and hug the right side of the tunnel so you
will go through the hole in the blast door otherwise you will take
damage when you slam into the other side of the blast door. You will
now hit the gas and get a huge boost in speed. Dodge the trams and junk
in the tunnel and you will take a sharp right turn and continue
traveling down the passage. There will be a Zaku II F-2 in the way, so
quickly destroy it and activate your multi-lock so you can destroy the
two gun moving gun turrets on the walls of the tunnel. The tunnel will
have a slight dip, so mind the ceiling. The tunnel will then take a
hard turn right and then another hard turn left. There will be a Zaku I
further ahead in the tunnel and a Zaku II F-2 even further up. There
will be a series of four gun turrets in the sides of the walls, and
than another four further behind it, so use your multi-lock to quickly
destroy them all. Be sure to avoid the trams that are coming out the
walls and moving down the passageway. There will be another four gun
turrets, so multi-lock to destroy them and then quickly hug the floor
because an explosion will destroy a blast door in the floor, which will
cause the doors to fly up towards the ceiling, potentially hitting you
unless you are down low. Use your multi-lock to take out the four gun
turrets further down the hall, and destroy the tram that will come out
of the wall. Four gun turrets on moving trams will emerge, two each on
the ceiling and floor, so multi-lock to wipe them out as you continue
down the hall. A Zaku II F-2 will enter the hallway, so quickly destroy
it before using your multi-lock to destroy four gun turrets on the
walls further back. Another Zaku II F-2 will enter from a passage in
the left wall, so destroy it and then use your multi-lock to destroy
another four gun turrets down the hall a ways. Now open your multi-lock
window again and wait for it to lock onto the next four gun turrets in
the walls and quickly fire before you boost up into a passage way in
the ceiling. You will continue forwards a way and there will be a Zaku
II F-2 further ahead of you, so quickly try to destroy it before the
blast doors in front of it slam shut. With that route cut off you will
now take a hard boost upwards into another passageway, this one with
cool window looking out into space. Blast the Zaku II F-2 further ahead
in the passageway as you travel forward. The BGM music will now change
as you travel forward, and there will be a Zaku I and a Zaku II F-2
ahead of you that you should quickly destroy before you take another
sharp left turn down another passageway. A blast door will slam shut in
front of you, so you will boost up again and enter a large launch bay
where a Zanzibar is preparing to launch. There will be two Zaku II F-
2's there already, so try to waste them as you fly over the Zanzibar.
The large blast doors in the back will slam shut, so you will go up
over the Zanzibar before turning around to face down on the launching
Zanzibar. You will now enter the Battle Sphere.
You will enter the Battle Sphere, and the objective is to destroy
the Zanzibar that is prepping to launch. There will be an eternal
stream of mobile suits, including Zaku I's, Zaku II F-2's, and Rick
Doms, that will enter the area through the various passages in the
walls, as well as four very large gun turrets on each corner of the
launch platform. There are also tiny bits and pieces of the Zanzibar to
destroy, like gun turrets and tailfins, as well as crane arms and bits
of stuff in the launch bay to destroy. Destroy some of the other
enemies in the area, but don't spend all your time destroying mobile
suits alone or else the Zanzibar will escape. Either destroy the
Zanzibar, or goof off for the entire one minutes and fifty seconds it
will take for the Zanzibar to escape, and you will re-enter Route Tube
Mode and head into another passageway in the back of the launch bay.
All right, back to hall crawling in Route Tube Mode. The hall will
begin to erupt with explosions. Be sure to stick to the right side of
the passage to avoid striking a canister along the left wall. You will
exit the passageway into a very large launch bay. There will be one
Musai right in front of you when you exit the tunnel, and you will fly
to the front of the Musai just in time to see another Musai fly out of
Solomon before the blast doors shut. You will now exit Route Tube Mode
back into the Battle Sphere. That was quick! You will be attacked by
several Zaku II F-2's and Zaku I's that will enter the area from the
passages in the back wall, but after you destroy seven of them they
will stop coming. Destroy the Musai in the area and you will re-enter
Route Tube Mode and head towards the large blast doors towards the
front of the launch bay. There will be a small blast door in the
bulkhead of the right side of the large blast door, so shoot it out
(otherwise you will slam through it, taking lots of damage) and you
will exit back out into space. You will fly past the Musai that just
exited Solomon and you will do a turn around and face the Musai before
entering the Battle Sphere again.
Back in the Battle Sphere again. There will be two Musai in the
area, as well as several Gattle that will be flying around minding
their own business. There will be a bunch of Zaku II F-2's that will
attack you as well. Quickly destroy the two Musai before they flee the
area and then focus on the enemy units. Once you have destroyed a total
of nine Zaku II F-2's in the area Amuro will notice that something is
happening back at Solomon and will go to investigate and this long
segment of the mission will end, so nab yourself some popcorn and
prepare to watch yourself some movies.
You will be in the Route Tube chasing after Dozle Zabi in his giant
monstrous mobile armor, the MA-08 Big Zam. You will pass a few Salamis
battleships, which Dozle will easily fry with the Big Zam's mega
particle cannons. DO NOT damage the remains of the Salamis battleships!
The wrecked Salamis' are not completely destroyed, so if you hit them
again they will explode again, earning you a -5,000 penalty to your
score! Don't waste your damn time shooting at the Big Zam. The Big Zam
is equipped with an I-Field, so you cannot even hope to damage it with
your Beam Rifle (Gundam). However, solid projectiles can still damage
it, as well as melee attacks, so its open season for the Gundam's Hyper
Bazooka Special Attack, head vulcans, and beam saber slashing frenzy.
You will enter the Battle Sphere with the Big Zam, but you won't be
alone. You will also have to contend with Zaku II F-2's that will come
two at a time and harass you, but after you destroy ten of them they
will stop coming. So now it's time to deal with that damn Big Zam. The
best way to do it is to fly right up to the giant mobile armor and
unload all of your Special Attacks into the Big Zam. When you run out
of Special Attacks, slash the Big Zam with your beam saber while the
Special Gauge refills. Just keep this up. The Big Zam is a huge target,
and it will take a while, but once it has been reduced to only 50% of
its Health Gauge you get to watch more movies.
Sleggar Crash!!! Poor, poor Sleggar. Oh well, his valiant sacrifice
was not in vain. You will again enter combat against that pesky Big
Zam. Annoyingly, though, the Big Zam's Health Gauge has been completely
refilled, so it is at 100%. But that pesky I-Field is no more, so it's
perfectly fine to blast the crap out of the Big Zam with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam) now. Once again, the Big Zam and you are not alone in your
fight. You will be attacked by a whole lot of Rick Doms. They will come
two at a time, but once you destroy twenty of them the Rick Doms will
stop coming. Now you can concentrate on the Big Zam! Just keep
attacking the Big Zam with your Special Attacks and beam saber. After
you reduce the Big Zam to only having 15% of its Health Gauge remaining
it will instantly switch over to another movie scene and the mission
will end successfully. Wow was that long!
Stage 4:
--------
The Earth Federation has successfully captured the space fortress
Solomon. The White Base is on reconnaissance in Side 5 space, charged
to mop up any Zeon remnants that may be lurking in the area after
fleeing from Solomon. Having detected an enemy fleet near Texas Colony
the White Base prepares to attack; however Amuro Ray has no idea he is
being lured into a trap.
You will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam). You will fly through a debris field in Route Tube Mode for a
little while before entering into a clearing where a Chivvay is already
waiting. Two MS-09R Rick Doms will fly into view, so destroy them
quickly before you enter the Battle Sphere. Once you enter the Battle
Sphere head over and destroy that Chivvay by multi-locking it to death
with your main weapon. After twenty-two seconds have gone by Sayla Mass
will offer to come in and support you in her FF-X7[Bst] Core Booster.
You can accept her help if you want it. Several more Rick Doms will
attack you, but ignore them for now. There will be two Musais that will
move through the area, one from the east and one for the west. They
will exit the mission area if you do not destroy them first, so ignore
the Rick Doms and destroy the two Musais. After you destroy all three
battleships, or destroy all nineteen Rick Doms, M'Quve will arrive on
the scene in his prototype YMS-15 Gyan. If you haven't already then
destroy all of the Rick Doms, which will continuously come until you
have destroyed a total of eighteen of them, or destroy all three
battleships if you haven't done that. Just be sure to wreck everything
in the area before you turn to face M'Quve's Gyan. Attack the Gyan in
close combat and just slash away. Compared to some of the other
characters M'Quve is very weak. After the Gyan has been reduced to only
40% of its Health Gauge this part of the mission will end.
M'Quve will lure Amuro close to Texas colony. After a brief amount
of time in Route Tube Mode with the Gyan buzzing around you annoyingly
shooting missiles. One of the large meteors around you will explode and
Amuro will exclaim that they are mines. You will be dumped back into
the Battle Sphere. The only enemy is basically just M'Quve's Gyan,
which now has 100% of its Health back, and a whole lot of large meteor
mines. After ten seconds in this area Sayla will ask to support you
again, so call on her if you want her to help you beat on M'Quve. Just
attack M'Quve in close combat and he will go down quickly. Once the
Gyan has 40% of its Health remaining this segment of the mission will
end and you will watch a movie.
M'Quve has lured Amuro all the way inside of Texas Colony. The skies
are literally littered with small hide mines. There are hundreds of
them! M'Quve's Gyan, which again has its Health Gauge refilled to 100%,
will zip around and fire rockets at you. Just fly forward and attack
the Gyan in close combat and, once again, when the Gyan is reduced to
40% of its Health Gauge M'Quve will back off.
A few beams will come seemingly out of nowhere, and the Gundam must
dodge out of the way as a light red mobile suit speeds onto the scene.
Now you have to contend with Char Aznable in his brand new MS-14S(CA)
Gelgoog Char Aznable Custom armed with a Beam Rifle (Gelgoog). M'Quve's
Gyan is still here as well, and it's Health Gauge has been replenished
to 100% AGAIN!!! The Gyan will square off against you first as Char's
Gelgoog flies around. Ignore the Gyan at the moment and find Char's
Gelgoog. Attack Char's Gelgoog in close combat and continue to beat on
it until it has been reduced to having 30% of its Health Gauge
remaining, after which the Gelgoog will retreat. Now that Char is out
of the way, let's get back to beating the hell out of M'Quve for the
umpteenth time. Just beat the Gyan savagely with your beam saber, and
once it has been reduced to 40% of its Health Gauge it will gain
temporary invulnerability. M'Quve will fret like hell and Amuro will
tell him that his dirty tricks are no match for Gundam's power. After
they are done yapping the Gyan will lose its temporary invincibility so
you can continue to attack it without mercy. Once the Gyan has been
liberated of all of its precious Health M'Quve will ask that his
antique vase be given to Kycilia Zabi before the Gyan explodes. Once
M'Quve is dead and Char's Gelgoog has been driven off the mission will
end successfully.
NOTE: There is no way to get an S-Rank in this mission without
replaying it, so don't kill yourself trying.
Stage 5:
--------
After returning to Solomon, which the Federation Forces have renamed
Konpei Island and are using as a forward base, the White Base is sent
out to investigate a series of mysterious incidents. The Federation has
been getting reports of strange attacks on some of their warships.
These attacks come out of no where, often having devastating effect,
but when the area is searched they find no enemies. Captain Bright
suspects the Federation brass are just using them as decoys to lure the
enemy out, but he accepts the mission anyway.
Amuro will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam, armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam), to find what is behind all of the attacks. You will start in
Route Tube Mode and travel forward through a cluttered debris field. An
MS-06F-2 Zaku II F-2 armed with a Zaku Machinegun will spring from the
lower-left corner of the screen, so destroy it. An MS-09R Rick Dom
armed with a Giant Bazooka will also spring out from behind a hunk of
debris on the right, so waste that sucker too as your Gundam and White
Base move into the Battle Sphere. In this Battle Sphere portion of the
mission you must guard the White Base against enemy attacks. The White
Base's Health Gauge will be shown on the left side of the screen, so be
sure to pay attention to it because if the White Base is destroyed you
will fail the mission. The White Base will come under attack from Zaku
II F-2's with either Zaku Machineguns or Zaku Bazookas and Rick Doms
with Giant Bazookas. The enemies will come two at a time, and once you
destroy a total of nineteen enemy units this part of the mission will
end. The White Base will continue to move forward through the shoal
zone until a blast strikes White Base's engines.
The enemy reveals itself! It is the Newtype-use mobile armor MAN-03
Braw Bro, piloted by Challia Bull. The Braw Bro won't really move very
much as compared to most of the other Zeon mobile armors you fight. In
fact it won't move very much at all, and will spend most of its time
facing you. You must again guard the White Base, but the ships Health
Gauge has been refilled to 100%, so you're starting fresh, but if the
White Base should be destroyed you will fail the mission. The Braw Bro
is being escorted by two Rick Doms, so destroy those two units before
tackling the Braw Brow. After those Rick Doms are toast, attack the
Braw Bro in close combat. This is the best way to deal with the Braw
Bro is by attacking it in close combat. Get right in front of the Braw
Bro and slash away. This will make it harder for the Braw Bro to attack
you with its oddly arranged mega particle cannons. You should also
unload your Special Attack directly into the Braw Bro's face; this will
quickly drain large portions of its Health Gauge. Once the Braw Bro has
lost all of its Health Gauge Challia will winder if the pilot of the
Gundam is a genuine Newtype, and then the Braw Bro will explode. Amuro
will worry that the Gundam's responses are far too slow to keep up with
him and the mission will end.
Stage 6:
--------
There has been a large-scale movement of the Zeon fleet from the
lunar city of Granada. The fleet appears to be heading towards the
massive Zeon space fortress A Baoa Qu. Seeing the opportunity to attack
the Zeon fleet in transit, the Federation launches the final stages of
Operation Star One and begins to head to A Baoa Qu.
You will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam)... but you probably knew that by now. You will spend the vast
majority of the first part of the mission traveling in the Route Tube.
The Earth Federation Space Fleet is clashing with the Zeon Fleet from
Granada, so all hell is breaking loose. As you move forward, past the
exploding and damaged Salamis battleships, keep this in mind: DO NOT
hit the damaged Federation battleships! As most of them are getting
damaged there is a chance that you hitting them might destroy them. You
destroy an allied unit earns you a -5,000 point penalty, so just watch
where you're shooting. Three MS-09R Rick Doms armed with Giant Bazookas
will swarm from the bottom and right as you pass an exploding Salamis,
so quickly destroy them as you move forward. A Zanzibar battleship will
zoom across the screen from the left, so you can try to multi-lock
attack it to destroy some of its turrets, but just be careful not to
hit the Salamis that it will fly behind. Two MS-06F Zaku II armed with
Zaku Machineguns will enter from the bottom-right, so destroy them
quickly and open your multi-lock window or prepare your Special Attack
to bombard a Musai that will fly by from the left side of the screen as
you travel forward. Two Rick Doms will enter the area, so waste them
both quickly before you fly underneath the Salamis. As you pass under
the Salamis open your multi-lock window and prepare to bombard the
Musai up ahead with beam fire and when you lock onto it blast the
battleship, and continue blasting the Musai, until it is destroyed as
you keep cruising forward. You will travel past a wrecked Salamis,
behind which will be two Rick Doms. Take great care not to hit the
wrecked Salamis as you fire at the Rick Doms. As you continue to travel
forward you will begin to hear a strange noise... Almost like someone
is calling out. You will come across three Salamis, and one of the
captains will ask your assistance because his entire mobile suit
compliment has been destroyed. But, it is already too late; two of the
Salamis will be picked off by beam fire from a seemingly phantom enemy.
Quickly open your multi-lock and wait, as three Rick Doms will fly in
from the top of the screen and destroy the third Salamis, so once all
three Rick Doms are in your crosshairs, fire and destroy them. You will
fly forward a small bit more and enter the Battle Sphere.
You enter the Battle Sphere and Amuro will spot an enemy detachment,
and you should too, it's right there hiding behind a big rock. There is
one Musai partially hidden behind a very large asteroid, so fly forward
until you reach it. After about one minute and thirteen seconds go by
Kai Shiden in his RX-77-2 Guncannon armed with a Custom Beam Rifle
(Guncannon) will call in asking if you want him to support you, so take
him if you wish. The commander of the Musai will spot the white mobile
suit and order the ship to run, and the Musai will promptly move
forward a bit and make a wide turn as it attempts to flee the area.
Squads of Rick Doms, which will come three at a time, are guarding the
Musai in the area. Don't waste time with the Rick Doms right now
though, because you must destroy that Musai before it escapes. An even
better idea could be to destroy the Musai's two engine blocks so it can
not escape the battlefield and you can pick off more individual bits of
the battleship later. Soon, that odd humming noise will return and the
battlefield will be surrounded by small, sporadically moving, unknown
enemy objects. Amuro hears someone calling... Lalah... Those tiny
annoying objects flitting about (which are actually Bits) make locking
onto the Rick Doms in the area rather frustrating, because if you
aren't paying attention you could end up locked onto a Bit and not a
Rick Dom. After you have destroyed twelve Rick Doms this part of the
mission will end.
Amuro will begin to wonder where that noise is coming from. What is
this odd feeling that someone is calling him? Lalah? Who is Lalah? ...
Lalah is the young Zeon officer Lalah met in Side 6, and she is
piloting her Newtype-use mobile armor, the MAN-08 Elmeth. Lalah will
feel Amuro's presence and go to investigate herself. You will enter the
Battle Sphere against Lalah's Elmeth and Amuro will wonder who is
piloting this bizarre machine. You should try to end this fight as
quickly as possible to prevent the Elmeth from releasing its Bits with
its Special Attack, which is awfully annoying. The Elmeth fights
similar to the Braw Bro from the last mission, although it is a little
faster. Don't waste your time shooting at the Elmeth. Just fly up into
its "face" and use your Special Attack to unload bazooka rounds into
its grill. If the Elmeth does end up releasing its Bits just try to use
your multi-lock to take out several of them quickly. After the Elmeth
has been reduced to 70% of its Health you will cut to a movie scene.
After the movie is done playing it's back to the fray. The Elmeth
will retain the damage it took last time, so it will have about 70% of
its Health Gauge remaining. The Gundam and Elmeth are back in the
Battle Sphere, but Amuro will talk to Lalah with his Newtype powers,
denoted by a crazy psychedelic flittering blue background. While the
background is blue and Amuro and Lalah are talking, you cannot attack
the Elmeth but you will still be able to move around, so use this time
to try to get in close to the Elmeth. Once the background returns to
the normal space setting you will be able to attack the Elmeth again,
and it will attack you as well, if you are near enough. You will
continue to shift in and out of the blue background and space
background every couple dozen seconds. You do not necessarily have to
fight Lalah's Elmeth in this segment, you can just sit still or go grab
something to eat and wait for it to end. But if you are able to
decrease the Elmeth's Health to 10% you will not have to fight the
Elmeth in the next part of this mission, so it is probably a good idea
to go after the Elmeth now. The first time you re-enter the Newtype
flash background and Lalah will ask why she couldn't have met Amuro
sooner in her life. Once that segment ends, and you return to normal
game play, but not long afterwards you will again enter the Newtype
communique background and Amuro will hear the voices of his comrades
back on the White Base. The background will fade back to space and you
will return to the fight. The next time you enter the star-crossed blue
background will be the last. Lalah will tell Amuro she doesn't sense
any family in his heart. Amuro will say that makes no difference and
this segment will end.
Now Char Aznable is back on the scene in his MS-14S(CA) Gelgoog Char
Aznable Custom armed with a Beam Rifle (Gelgoog), and after the Red
Comet effortlessly obliterates two Salamis battleships he finds his
target: The Gundam. You will re-enter the Battle Sphere, only now
Char's Gelgoog will be here along with Lalah in her Elmeth. The Elmeth
still has any damage it may have taken during the last parts of the
mission. In the beginning Lalah will sit it out, in fact you can't even
lock onto the Elmeth. Sayla will also soon show up in her FF-X7[Bst]
Core Booster, but all she'll do is fly around and talk. Don't bother
with ranged combat in this fight. Attack Char's Gelgoog in close combat
and just slash away, barrel roll around to the back of the enemy, and
then start to melee them again. Once Char's Gelgoog has been reduced to
60% of its Health, Lalah will become afraid and she will attack you to
defend Char, and will not stop attacking you until it the Elmeth has
been reduced to 10% of its Health. However, if you had reduced Lalah's
Elmeth down to 10% of its Health in the last segment of the mission,
Lalah will not attack you when Char's Gelgoog falls below 60% Health.
Once Char's Gelgoog has been reduced to 25% of its Health Gauge the
mission will end.
Stage 7:
--------
Sensing that the Principality of Zeon will be defeated, and wishing
to ease the suffering the war has placed on his people, Degwin Zabi
attempts to end the war by negotiating a peace treaty with the Earth
Federation's General Revil. However, Degwin's eldest son Gihren Zabi
does not share in his father's pessimism over the suspected outcome of
the war, or his concern for the people of Zeon. Gihren decides that his
father is too weak to rule and decides to utilize his secret weapon,
the Solar-Ray. The Solar-Ray, the former colony of Mahal, which has
been converted into an enormous colony laser, is fired at the meeting
Federation and Zeon Fleets. One-third of the Federation's space fleet
is destroyed, as well as the Great Degwin, flagship of Degwin Zabi and
Zeon's space forces. Both Degwin Zabi and General Revil are killed by
the attack, and Gihren Zabi assumes total control of the Principality
of Zeon. Facing a new, determined enemy the remaining Earth Federation
Space Fleet has no choice but to attack Zeon's remaining space
fortress. The White Base is assigned to attack from the S Field. The
Battle of A Baoa Qu has begun.
You will launch from White Base in the RX-78-2 Gundam, armed with
the Beam Rifle (Gundam). You will be in Route Tube Mode for a little
while during the beginning of this mission. You will move forward past
a few Salamis battleships, with some Publics and Balls flying near you.
An MS-06F Zaku II armed with a Zaku Machinegun will enter from the
bottom-right, so quickly blast it. You will continue traveling forward
and another Zaku II will enter from the left from over a Salamis, so
lock onto it (to avoid accidentally hitting the Salamis) and destroy
it. Another Zaku II will enter from the lower-right chasing a Ball, so
destroy it. As you continue forward, three Gattle will enter from the
right, top-center, and left sides of the screen so quickly multi-lock
and blast them as you travel forward. A Musai will be in front of you
with a Zaku II hovering underneath its left engine block. Use your
multi-lock as you fly by to destroy the multiple parts of the Musai and
the Zaku II beneath it. Continue to blast the Musai until you hopefully
destroy it, as the Gundam will make a slow, banking turn to the left
and fly over the Musai. Once you pass the Musai you will see three MS-
09R Rick Doms armed with Giant Bazookas at various distances, one
partially hidden behind a piece of wreckage. Use your multi-lock to
snipe the three Rick Doms, but shoot at them singly as you get closer
to them. You will continue to fly forward and another Musai will come
into view. Use your multi-lock to blast at the Musai as fly near it.
Once you get near the Musai you will enter the Battle Sphere.
In the Battle Sphere the immediate enemies will be the Musai that
was in front of you, as well as tons of non-hostile Gattle that will
fly from A Baoa Qu, but soon three MS-14A Gelgoogs armed with Beam
Rifles (Gelgoog) will enter the combat area. You must destroy all three
of the enemy Gelgoogs and the Musai to continue on. Once the Musai and
all three Gelgoogs are obliterated you will re-enter Route Tube Mode.
You will head away from the now wrecked Musai back towards the White
Base. Three Gattle will quickly swoop across the screen from the left,
so if you are fast you may be able to destroy them with a series of
multi-lock beam blasts. Four Gattle will then appear from the left
flying in formation, so use your multi-lock to destroy them. A Rick Dom
will pop out from behind a chunk of wreckage, so shoot it twice to
destroy it. A Zaku II will fly from the right, so quickly destroy it
and another Zaku II that will come in from the front. Another Zaku II
will fly out from behind a heap of wreckage on the right, just as the
White Base comes into view, so quickly destroy it. The Gundam will fly
forward and make a shallow pass along the right side of the White Base
and fly ahead of it before entering the Battle Sphere.
Once you enter the Battle Sphere you will have to protect and guard
the White Base from enemy attacks. If the White Base should lose all of
its Health and be destroyed you will fail the mission, so be sure to
keep a watch on the White Base's Health Gauge on the left side of the
screen. There will already be two Musai and three Rick Doms in the area
when you enter the Battle Sphere. You should destroy the two Musais
first, as they can cause the most damage to White Base the fastest.
Just use your Special Attack to destroy the Musais quickly. After three
seconds have gone by since you entered this Battle Sphere segment
Hayato Kobayashi will offer to support you in his RX-77-2 Guncannon
armed with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon). After the two Musai are
destroyed, head closer to White Base and concentrate on destroying
enemy units as they come. After forty seconds have gone by since you
entered this Battle Sphere Kai Shiden, who is also in an RX-77-2
Guncannon armed with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon), will offer to
support you and Hayato. Enemy units consist of a mixture of Rick Doms,
Gelgoogs, and a few Zaku II's. After you destroy both Musais and a
total of twelve enemy units you will again enter the Route Tube Mode.
The game will enter a cutscene where Amuro's Gundam will speed
towards A Baoa Qu. On his way he will encounter another of Gihren
Zabi's monstrous creations, the Dolos super-carrier. This enormous
behemoth of a battleship dwarfs every other unit on the battlefield.
Three MA-05 Bigro mobile armors will launch from the Dolos to intercept
you. As this part of the mission begins you will be in the Route Tube
Mode again. Two Gattle will fly towards you, so quickly shoot them
down, as a Musai battleship comes into view on the left. Use your
Special Attack to take out the Musai, and then multi-lock to destroy
the three Gattle that will fly in from the left. After passing the
Musai two of the Bigros will enter from the left and fly past you.
These two Bigros are quite weak, and can be destroyed in just two shots
from your beam rifle, so take them both out as you chase them closer to
the Dolos. You will come up the Dolos' left side and make a left turn
around the back of the Dolos. You will turn around and cross under the
bottom-left side of the Dolos. There will be two Zaku II's armed with
Zaku Bazookas down there, so quickly destroy them both. A Rick Dom will
also fly in from the left, so destroy it as well. You will come out
from underneath the bottom and fly up to the top of the Dolos, where a
Zaku II, which you should blast quickly, will be standing on the edge.
You will fly out and away from the Dolos and hover in front of the
monstrous suit carrier before entering the Battle Sphere.
Once you enter the Battle Sphere in front of the Dolos a five minute
countdown will begin. If you do not complete this part of the mission
before the five minutes run out you will fail the mission. Tons of
enemies will swarm around the Dolos until time runs out, so you can
rack up tons of points here. Enemies will be many Gelgoogs, Zaku II's,
and Rick Doms. But soon, after you have destroyed five enemy mobile
suits, the third Bigro will arrive. The third Bigro is much tougher
than those other two green pushovers you saw in the Route Tube leading
up to the Dolos, not to mention there will still be tons of enemy
mobile suits coming that you have to worry about as well. The easiest
way to take out that Bigro is to fly near the Dolos, and try to trick
it into crashing. The Bigro will come after you and may stupidly fly
right into the side of the Dolos and have trouble moving back into its
normal flight paths since it always wants to move forward, which makes
the Bigro little more than a big target. You can also destroy the
Dolos' large main guns, but they take a lot of damage and are only
worth 10 points, so it's easier and more worthwhile to just destroy
mobile suits instead. Just destroy the Bigro before the five minute
time limit runs out and the mission will end successfully as Amuro
heads out to land on A Baoa Qu.
Stage 8:
--------
Amuro Ray draws closer to A Baoa Qu in his RX-78-2 Gundam armed with
the Beam Rifle (Gundam). Amuro realizes that the true enemy is actually
the Zabi family, and thinks that Char knows this too. But unbeknownst
to Amuro, Char has received a new unit, and seeing this as his last
chance to finally defeat the Gundam, the Red Comet is pulling out all
the stops.
You will begin the mission in Route Tube Mode, heading towards the
space fortress A Baoa Qu. As you begin you will come up behind a
Salamis battleship, and an MS-09R Rick Dom armed with a Giant Bazooka
will enter from the right from in front of the Salamis, while an MS-06F
Zaku II armed with a Zaku Machinegun enters from the front. Quickly
destroy them both as the Gundam heads forwards and up, where another
Rick Dom will enter from the top of the screen, and another Rick Dom
from the side right. As you speed forward an MS-14A Gelgoog armed with
a Beam rifle (Gelgoog) and another Rick Dom will enter the area, so
quickly waste them. Drawing ever closer another Gelgoog will fly out of
left field and destroy a Salamis as a Rick Dom comes from the lower-
right. Destroy them both as you continue forward, past the exploding
Salamis. You will fly by a Musai being guarded by two Rick Doms, and
slow down briefly allowing you to use your multi-lock to take out parts
of the Musai and the two Rick Doms before finishing the Musai with your
Special Attack. Continuing past the Musai you will travel forward a
good ways before a Rick Dom enters from the right. Destroy the Rick Dom
as you continue forward past another exploding Salamis and you will
come across a Chivvay battleship being guarded by a MS-06F Zaku II with
a Zaku Machinegun. Destroy the Zaku II with your beam rifle as you fly
over the Chivvay. The Gundam will tip downwards over the Chivvay, so
pump it full of bazooka shells with your Special Attack as the Gundam
heads downwards. You will bear down on top of a Musai being guarded by
two Rick Doms, so try to destroy the Rick Doms with your beam rifle and
take down the Musai with your Special Attack. After passing the Musai
you will level out again and start heading back towards A Baoa Qu. You
will now be attacked by the MSN-02 Zeong, piloted by Char Aznable. As
you continue to fly forward, past the Salamis battleships, the Zeong
will fly ahead of you and taking potshots at you and destroying
Federation battleships. Pretty much just ignore the Zeong and
concentrate on destroying the three Zaku II's that will attack you as
you go forward. As you continue forward, still being harassed by the
Zeong, you will come across a Musai being guarded by a Rick Dom, so try
to destroy both as you continue to zoom forward. After you pass the
Musai the Zeong will disappear as suddenly as it came. Take out a
Gelgoog on the right side of the screen and a Rick Dom that will come
from the left, and then destroy a Gattle that will come up behind you
from the right. At this point two RGM-79 GMs will fly up from behind
you. It is actually Bernard Monsha and South Burning, two of the three
members of the Immortal Fourth Team. As you head past a Salamis the two
Fourth Team pilots will be amazed that they are flying with the Gundam.
You and your two new GM friends will encounter an enemy squad of four
Rick Doms and two Gelgoogs, which you should try to multi-lock to get
as many kills before those Monsha and Burning kill them all. You,
Burning and Monsha will continue forward, and two more Gelgoogs will
appear, so try to kill them before the Fourth Team gets them first. The
two members of the Fourth Team will leave now and you will continue
ahead a short way, just until a Chivvay comes into view and you will
enter the Battle Sphere.
In the Battle Sphere there will already be two Musais near you, and
the one Chivvay far in the back. Ignore the battleships for now and
take out the enemies as they come. Enemy units will consist of many
Rick Doms and Gelgoogs, as well as a few Zaku IIs. Also, there will be
a steady supply of Gattle flying from the direction of A Baoa Qu that
will spam their large missile Special Attack as they fly forward even
though they aren't really hostile enemies. After you destroy twenty-
three enemy mobile suits they will stop coming, so it is time to take
out the battleships. Once you have destroyed the single Chivvay and the
two Musais, another two Musai battleships will enter the area from the
direction of A Baoa Qu. Destroy these next two Musai and this part of
the mission will end. Amuro will feel that the enemy is deep within A
Baoa Qu and blast off to the asteroid base.
You are back in Route Tube Mode for this next part, as Amuro has now
reached the surface of A Baoa Qu. You will fly along the outside of the
space fortress launch bays, and just like during your fly-by of Solomon
use of the multi-lock feature is highly recommended. Two Rick Doms will
be hanging out near a hangar, so quickly blast them and the Gattle that
flies by. As you fly nearer to one of the launch bays open your multi-
lock window, because as soon as you come near the hangar three Gelgoogs
will zoom out and guard a launching Musai. Release the lock-on once it
has captured the three Gelgoogs and the Musai in your crosshairs, which
will destroy the three Gelgoogs and several bits of the Musai, so just
sink a few more beam shots into the Musai and it will be destroyed. As
you fly past that Musai a Zaku II will come in from the bottom, so
destroy it. A wrecked Salamis battleship will crash into A Baoa Qu and
explode, so be sure to quickly move down so you don't crash into the
wreck. Two Rick Doms will enter the area from the top of the screen, so
quickly destroy both them before they are able to escape into one of
the hangars in the side of A Baoa Qu. A Zaku II will come up from the
lower-left, so destroy it and then open your multi-lock window and wait
a second. After a second you will lock onto a Gelgoog that has entered
the area, and three gun turrets on the surface of A Baoa Qu, so release
the Square Button to blast them all. Activate your multi-lock again to
try and blast a few more gun turrets on A Baoa Qu. You will continue
forward and watch as a Salamis battleship crashes into one of the
hangars and explodes. Destroy the two Rick Doms by the destroyed
Salamis and as you travel a little more destroy a Gelgoog that will
enter your view. Two Gattle will launch from A Baoa Qu, so activate
your multi-lock to catch them and a few gun turrets on the asteroid's
surface. Destroy a Gelgoog that will come out of a gap in the rocks,
and open the multi-lock windows to catch two more Gattle and more gun
turrets as you fly by. Kai Shiden will message you complaining that he
wanted to be the one to reach A Baoa Qu first. A Rick Dom will enter
from the right as a Musai come into view, so destroy the Rick Dom with
your beam rifle as you continue forward, and then use your Special
Attack to quickly take down the Musai. After passing the Musai a Zaku
II will exit a hangar, so destroy it and listen as a GM pilot marvels
at the Gundam's power. Open your multi-lock window to catch and destroy
three Gelgoogs that will fly in from the top of the screen. As you
continue forward you will come across another Musai that is outside the
space fortress. Use your multi-lock on the Musai two times to sink the
ship as two Rick Doms fly in the area from the bottom and right sides
of the screen. Destroy those two Rick Doms as you pass under the Musai,
and then destroy a Gelgoog that is chasing a GM down the right side of
the screen. A Zaku II will zoom quickly out of the nearest hangar, so
you may not be able to destroy it before it is gone, but open your
multi-lock window and prepare to fire on and destroy a Musai that is
launching from the hanger, as well as a Rick Dom that will try to fly
into the hangar the Musai is exiting. Continuing forward, several
mobile suits (four Zaku II and five Gelgoogs) will come out of the next
few hangars, so destroy them all and feel free to chuckle as one of the
poor pilots screams for his mommy as he dies. This segment of the
mission will now end.
Amuro will have officially landed on A Baoa Qu. There's just one big
problem... Char Aznable has found him. You will enter the Battle Sphere
and Char and his Zeong will be there soon. Now the Zeong's ranged
attacks are rather strong, but not too bad. But you must be damned sure
to watch out for the Zeong's Special Attack. The Zeong will launch its
two hands outwards and blast at you with its chest mega particle
cannons. Now, the mega particle cannons in the chest aren't what you
should watch out for, it is the blasts from the Zeong's hands, because
those things can damage you quite badly if they hit you, so be sure to
barrel roll out of the way. Now the best thing about the Zeong is that
it has absolutely no melee attacks, so if you get in close and start
attacking with your beam saber then the Zeong will be in a real tough
position as there isn't much it can do to retaliate. Once the Zeong has
lost all of its Health the fight will end. The Zeong will blow off the
Gundam's left arm before fleeing. Amuro will chase the Zeong and blast
the leg-less unit in the chest, destroying it. But not before Char
ejects the secret escape pod, the Zeong's head, which destroys the
Gundam's own head with a shot from its mega particle cannon before
escaping into the interior of A Baoa Qu.
With the Gundam wrecked beyond repair and the Zeong destroyed, Char
and Amuro are now forced to settle their grudges with a good old-
fashioned sword fight. Crazy sword fight starts now! Amuro will enter
the area, where Char is already waiting for him. Although zero gravity
sword fights may seem rather awkward at first, controlling Amuro is the
exact same as controlling a mobile suit, you just don't have fancy
reticules plastered all over the screen to show what you're locked onto
your target and such. Use the Triangle button to melee attack Char with
your fencing foil. The D-Pad or Control stick will move Amuro forward,
back, left, or right, and R1 ascends and R2 descends. The Cross (X)
Button will activate the vernier pack on Amuro's back, boosting you
forward. Quickly pressing the Cross (X) Button twice will still cause
you to do a barrel roll, and pressing L1 will lock you onto Char. Just
continue to beat the hell out of Char with your fencing foil. Amuro and
Char will argue a bunch while they whack one another and eventually
Sayla will enter the area and ask the two to stop fighting, but keep
attacking Char anyway. After you have hit Char enough he and Amuro will
be done bickering and the mission will end.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Replaying White Base Mode
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
After the first time you fully complete White Base Mode the missions
will have a few differences when you start a new game. Some of these
changes will be small things, such as the addition of new enemy units,
or new ships, but some of the stages have huge changes in the way of
new paths that you can take and extra bonus movies to unlock. It is far
easier to get S-Ranks in the replays of White Base Mode because of the
additions of more enemies, so you'll have to replay at once if you hope
to unlock everything.
Stage 1 (Replay):
-----------------
After the perilous struggle to reach the Earth Federation Forces
headquarters of Jaburo in South America, the White Base has been
launched back into space. In their new role as the 13th Autonomous
Corps the White Base has a new mission, to act independently of the
main bulk of the Earth Federation Space Forces to confuse the enemy.
Shortly after leaving Earth the White Base is being trailed by a Zeon
Fleet. This mission starts out exactly like the opening movie of the
game. Let's see how well you can stack up to badass CG movie Amuro.
You will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam). You will be in Route Tube Mode for the first half of the
mission, and Sleggar Law in a FF-X7[Bst] Core Booster and Kai Shiden in
an RX-77-2 Guncannon with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon) will
automatically be supporting you for the moment. Sleggar will fire first
and Kai will chide him for jumping the gun. As you fly through the
Route Tube towards the first enemy Musai, two MS-09R Rick Doms with
Giant Bazookas will appear. Destroy them both quickly and when you get
close to the Musai use your multi-lock to quickly tear it apart with
your Beam Rifle. You have to be quick about it; otherwise Kai and
Sleggar will destroy the Musai first and steal the points for the kill.
You will go around the back of the first Musai (which should now be
destroyed) and hang out for a second before turning around and
continuing forward to a second Musai. Two more Rick Doms will attack
before you get to the Musai so destroy them quickly. When you get to
the Musai repeatedly use your multi-lock to take out different sections
of the Musai. You must hurry, though or Sleggar and Kai will destroy
this Musai as well. After the second Musai gets toasted you will
continue forward a bit more and find yourself hovering over a third
Musai.
You will enter the Battle Sphere once you fly over the third Musai,
and you will end up facing straight down over it. There will be three
Rick Doms guarding the Musai, so destroy them all. After fifty-one
seconds have gone by Sleggar will ask you if you want him to come in
and support you, but do not accept his offer so you have time to tear
the Musai apart without his interference. After you destroy the three
Rick Doms, head towards the Musai. Take out the Musai's two engines,
destroy the Musai's three cannons, destroy the combat bridge, and even
fly underneath the Musai and destroy the Komusai in the nosecone all
for the extra points. After all the individual parts of the Musai have
been taken out destroy the entire ship. A few seconds after the Musai
has been destroyed Bright will notice that the Zanzibar that has been
trailing the White Base since they left Earth them has caught up with
them. Sleggar's Core Booster has taken damage, so he will return to the
White Base. Bright orders Sleggar to man the White Base's main cannon.
Sleggar agrees to do it, but only if the White Base charges straight
towards the Zanzibar.
On the Zanzibar, Char is annoyed that Dren's fleet couldn't hold out
longer. You will re-enter the Route Tube and fly past White Base,
heading towards the Zanzibar. There will be three individual Rick Doms
that will attack you as you head towards the Zanzibar, so destroy them
with your beam rifle. You can even destroy the debris that will float
by for 10 points! Whoo hoo! Dodge the beam fire coming from the
Zanzibar and as you draw close to the ship a stray beam will come from
left field, barely missing you before doing a fly by. Whatever it is,
it's fast!
You will now enter the Battle Sphere where you must fight Tokwan and
his MA-05 Bigro. You have five minutes to destroy the Bigro; otherwise
you fail the mission. There will be now be two MS-09 Rick Doms with
Giant Bazookas that will attack you during the fight with the Bigro, so
destroy the two of them before you go after the speedy green mobile
armor. After thirteen seconds go by, Kai will radio in asking if you
want him to support you. You can take him if you wish. As for the
Bigro, it may be fast but it isn't very maneuverable. The Bigro's main
tactic is to fly forward for awhile before turning around to face you.
When it lines up with you when it turns it will fire its main cannon
and missiles, or use its Special Attack before charging forward. Fire
at Bigro when it is heading away from you, and then wait until it
starts to turn around. When it turns around and charges you shoot at it
as it comes towards you, but be sure to barrel roll out of the way of
its beam fire and missiles. When the Bigro passes you up either try to
attack it with your beam saber or shoot it in the back as it heads away
from you. Don't stay in front of the Bigro when it is heading straight
towards you because it may attack you with its melee attack, and those
claw pinchers can do a good bit of damage. You should also use your
Special Attack when the Bigro is heading towards you and you will knock
off pretty substantial chunks of its Health Gauge. Once the Bigro has
lost all of its Health it will explode and the mission will end.
Stage 2 (Replay):
-----------------
The White Base has stopped in the neutral Riah Republic in Side 6.
Due to Riah's neutral status all hostilities between the Earth
Federation and Zeon are strictly forbidden in Side 6 airspace. However
Dozle Zabi has deployed the Conscon mobile assault force to ambush the
White Base as it leaves the relative safety provided by Side 6.
You will already be deployed in the RX-78-2 Gundam, armed with the
Beam Rifle (Gundam). You must make damn sure to guard the White Base
for the duration of the mission. If the White Base should be destroyed
you will fail the mission. The White Base's Health Gauge is located on
the left side of the screen, so be sure to keep a close eye on it. The
best way to keep the White Base safe is to quickly destroy the enemies
in the area. As the mission begins there will be several MS-09R Rick
Doms armed with Giant Bazookas and one Musai in the area. First off
destroy the Musai and then concentrate on the Rick Doms. After sixteen
seconds go by Hayato Kobayashi will offer to come in and support you in
one of the White Base's RX-77-2 Guncannons armed with a Custom Beam
Rifle (Guncannon). Quickly destroy the Rick Doms and listen to Amuro
mockingly count his kills off. After twelve Rick Doms and the one Musai
have been destroyed a cutscene will play.
With his fleets entire compliment of Rick Doms wiped out Conscon
decides to ram his Chivvay into the White Base in a kamikaze run. You
will re-enter the Battle Sphere and must destroy the charging Chivvay.
The White Base's Health Gauge will remain at the same amount that it
ended the first part of this mission with, so you must be diligent in
guarding it. There will now be two MS-06F Zaku II's armed with Zaku
Machineguns that will be flying around firing on White Base, so take
out the two that will be near the White Base before tackling the
battleships. The Zaku II's will now periodically come one at a time,
but after destroying six of them they will no longer come. There will
also now be a Musai in this part of the mission to the right that will
be firing on the White Base, but your first priority should be
destroying that Chivvay. The Chivvay has a great deal of Health, so you
should use your Special Attacks on the charging ship and then
continually use your multi-lock to fire multiple shots into the
Chivvay. Should the Chivvay ram the White Base, which it takes about
one minute and forty seconds for it to do, it will automatically be
destroyed and you will fail the mission, so be quick about destroying
the run-away ship. After the Chivvay is destroyed you can go after the
Musai battleship, and be sure to pick off the individual bit and pieces
for extra points. After both the Chivvay and Musai have been destroyed
the mission will end.
Stage 3 (Replay):
-----------------
The Federation has commenced Operation Star One, a multi-phase plan
to blitz Zeon's space fortresses and overwhelm them with superior
forces. The first target is the enormous asteroid fortress of Solomon.
The Battle of Solomon has begun, and it is an entirely different
mission this time around. Different actions and consequences can cause
you to take different routes, and maybe even unlock extra movies
depending on which route you take. I will go into full detail on what
action will lead you where.
You will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam). You will fly past several Salamis battleships in Route Tube
Mode. There will be several Public fighter-bombers flying in formation
in front of you, and they will all launch their large missiles towards
Solomon before they break formation. The missiles will explode to
create a beam disruption field between Solomon and the main Federation
fleet. The Gundam will continue to travel forward and at twenty seconds
you will enter the Battle Sphere. You will have two Salamis battleships
in the are with you, which you must guard from attacking Zeon forces.
The two Salamis' Health Gauges are displayed on the left side of the
screen for your own convenience. Whether both Salamis are destroyed or
at least one should survive will determine the route you will take
later in the mission. The enemies that will attack the two battleships
will consist of MS-09R Rick Doms armed with Giant Bazookas and MS-06F-2
Zaku II F-2's armed with Zaku Machineguns, as well as a steady barrage
of large missiles coming from Solomon. After thirty-five seconds have
gone by Hayato Kobayashi, in the RX-77-2 Guncannons armed with a Custom
Beam Rifle (Guncannon), will ask to come in and support you, so if you
want him to help you out just go on and hit that Select Button. After
you have destroyed fifteen enemy units, or if it has been two minutes
since the mission began, you will get a message from Fraw Bo saying the
Tianem fleet is preparing to fire the new weapon, and this part of the
mission will end.
Amuro will head towards Solomon, so you will be in the Route Tube
Mode, and be prepared to stay in it for a little while because you're
about to do a crazy trench run on space fortress Solomon. Use of the
multi-lock function to take care of many targets quickly is highly
recommended for this part of the mission. There will be a ton of small
things, such as gun turrets and other doohickeys, on Solomon that will
give you a few points if you can destroy them, so try to blast as much
as junk as possible. When the segment begins, open your multi-lock and
blast the four gun-turrets surrounding the launch bay in the asteroid.
You will continue forward, so open the multi-lock and in a few seconds
it will lock onto three pieces of machinery, so wreck them. A Zaku II
F-2 will enter from the right side of the screen, so quickly destroy
it. You will continue to fly slowly forward towards another launch bay
in Solomon's surface and a Musai behind it. Open your multi-lock window
and you will soon start to lock onto the four gun turrets surrounding
the launch bay, three bits of machinery under the Musai, and individual
parts of the Musai. Blast the gun turrets and when you pass over the
launch bay a Zaku II F-2 will come out of it, so destroy it as you
travel forward. Continue to attack the Musai and do your best to
destroy it. A RB-79 Ball and an RGM-79 GM will fly past you and head
forward. A Zaku II F-2 will come out of the launch bay in the wall of
the asteroid behind the Musai, so destroy it before the GM or Ball
does. You will now take a hard turn right and speed up dramatically as
the Gundam enters a deep trench in the asteroids surface, with the Ball
and GM right in front of you. Three Gattle fighters will come up from
behind and launch their large missiles, so use your multi-lock to take
them out. Re-open your multi-lock and take out two gun turrets on
opposite sides of the trench walls. The GM will be hit by a chunk of
flying, flaming, debris and be destroyed as you fly over a high ridge
and rush over a large launch bay where a Chivvay is preparing to
launch. The Chivvay's captain will order his mobile suit forces to buy
him time while the ship tries to launch, and four Zaku II F-2's will
surround the ship and attack you. You can easily destroy the Chivvay
with the Gundam's Special Attack. You will fly to the back of the ship,
turn around and fly back to the front on the left side of the Chivvay
and around the front before heading back down the right side of the
Chivvay. You will then continue forward, whether you destroyed the
Chivvay or not, down the trench. After a few seconds you will come to a
large cave, where two GMs will be hovering outside firing at a Rick Dom
inside the cavernous asteroid. Destroy the Rick Dom as you zoom into
the cave entrance and dodge the rocks and infrastructure as you
continue forward. A sneaky Rick Dom will zoom out from behind a rock,
so blast his ass. As you continue down the tunnel a Zaku II F-2 will
also come out from behind a rock and attack, so waste that mecha too.
You will now exit the cave and return to the normal trench. There will
be a meteor missile that will launch outside the trench, so use your
multi-lock to destroy it. Three Rick Doms also surround a launch bay
cut into the asteroid's surface, so use your multi-lock to destroy them
as well. Continuing forward, you will have to duck down a bit to avoid
two trams coming from both sides of the asteroid. Sleggar Law, in the
FF-X7[Bst] Core Booster, will now meet up with you in the trench. You
will head out from the asteroid into space before spinning around to
face Solomon, where you will see many large ports with a Musai
launching from one. You will head back towards Solomon and zoom under
the launching Musai. You will now enter the Battle Sphere.
There will already be a ton of enemies in the area waiting for you.
To start off, there will already be that Musai that just launched from
Solomon, which will move forward and to the right before it stops. You
don't have to destroy the Musai, but whether you do or not will have an
effect on the route you take in the mission if you enter the space
fortress Solomon, but more on that later. There will also be a Papua
transport ship docked on the side of the fortress. There will be a near
constant supply of Gattle launching from and zooming around the space
fortress, but they won't attack you, they'll just fly around. However,
there will be a bunch of Zaku II F-2, Rick Doms, and MS-05A Zaku I's
armed with Zaku Bazookas that will attack you, but after you destroy
seven of them they will stop coming. There are several dozen gun
turrets and machinery located all over the wall of the asteroid. Each
one of them is worth about 50 points, so you can stack onto your score
for quite awhile. If you destroy the Papua transport docked near the
fortress you will re-enter the route Tube and head to the next part of
the mission, so put it off for awhile so you can destroy other things.
But if you go more than four minutes and thirty seconds without
destroying the Papua you will enter the Route Tube make your way to the
next area anyway.
Now where you go for the next part of this mission is dependent on
whether or not the two Salamis in the beginning of the mission were
destroyed or not. If the two Salamis were destroyed you will enter
Route Tube Mode and head into the space fortress Solomon, so I advise
you to read the section (SOLOMON INTERIOR). If at least one of the two
Salamis were not destroyed you will instead be told by Captain Bright
to head back and support the main fleet, so I advise those who take
this route to check out the section (GUARD FLEET), which is located
towards the end of this mission's walkthrough.
(SOLOMON INTERIOR) You will re-enter the Route Tube and enter one
of the launch bays in the side of Solomon, and fly into the tunnel in
the back. The tunnel is a small cramped space, so you have limited room
to maneuver in. Two Balls will come up the side and get in front of
you. There will be a gun turret in the left wall, so quickly blast it.
There will be a blast door in the way, but one of the Balls will blast
the right side of the door open, and continue through. Hurry up and hug
the right side of the tunnel so you will go through the hole in the
blast door otherwise you will take damage when you slam into the other
side of the blast door. You will now hit the gas and get a huge boost
in speed. Dodge the trams and junk in the tunnel and you will take a
sharp right turn and continue traveling down the passage. There will be
a Zaku II F-2 in the way, so quickly destroy it and activate your
multi-lock so you can destroy the two moving gun turrets on the walls
of the tunnel. The tunnel will have a slight dip, so mind the ceiling.
The tunnel will then take a hard turn right and then another hard turn
left. There will be a Zaku I further ahead in the tunnel and a Zaku II
F-2 even further up. There will be a series of four gun turrets in the
sides of the walls, and than another four further behind it, so use
your multi-lock to quickly destroy them all. Be sure to avoid the trams
that are coming out the walls and moving down the passageway. There
will be another four gun turrets, so multi-lock to destroy them and
then quickly hug the floor because an explosion will destroy a blast
door in the floor, which will cause the doors to fly up towards the
ceiling, potentially hitting you unless you are down low. Use your
multi-lock to take out the four gun turrets further down the hall, and
destroy the tram that will come out of the wall. Four gun turrets on
moving trams will emerge, two each on the ceiling and floor, so multi-
lock to wipe them out as you continue down the hall. A Zaku II F-2 will
enter the hallway, so quickly destroy it before using your multi-lock
to destroy four gun turrets on the walls further back. Another Zaku II
F-2 will enter from a passage in the left wall, so destroy it and then
use your multi-lock to destroy another four gun turrets down the hall a
ways. Now open your multi-lock window again and wait for it to lock
onto the next four gun turrets in the walls and quickly fire to destroy
the turrets. Now depending on where you go from here depends on whether
or not you destroyed the Musai in the area with the Papua right before
you entered Solomon. If you did destroy the Musai go to the segment
below listed (HEAD UP), but if you did not destroy the Musai go to the
paragraph titled (CONTINUE STRAIGHT).
(HEAD UP) The Gundam will quickly boost up into a passage way in
the ceiling. You will continue upwards a short way and there will be a
Zaku II F-2 further ahead of you, so quickly try to destroy it before
the blast doors in front of it slam shut. With that route cut off you
will now take a hard boost upwards into another passageway, this one
with cool window looking out into space. Blast the Zaku II F-2 further
ahead in the passageway as you travel forward. The BGM music will now
change as you travel forward, and there will be a Zaku I and a Zaku II
F-2 ahead of you that you should quickly destroy before you take
another sharp left turn down another passageway. A blast door will slam
shut in front of you, so you will boost up again and enter a large
launch bay where a Zanzibar is preparing to launch. There will be two
Zaku II F-2's there already, so try to waste them as you fly over the
Zanzibar. The large blast doors in the back will slam shut, so you will
go up over the Zanzibar before turning around to face down on the
launching Zanzibar. You will now enter the Battle Sphere.
You will enter the Battle Sphere, and the objective is to destroy
the Zanzibar that is prepping to launch. Now whether or not you destroy
the Zanzibar will actually determine which route you will take later
and how the mission will end. There will be an eternal stream of mobile
suits, including Zaku I's, Zaku II F-2's, and Rick Doms, that will
enter the area through the various passages in the walls, as well as
four very large gun turrets on each corner of the launch platform.
There are also tiny bits and pieces of the Zanzibar to destroy, like
gun turrets and tailfins, as well as crane arms and bits of stuff in
the launch bay to destroy. Destroy some of the other enemies in the
area, but don't spend all your time destroying mobile suits alone or
else the Zanzibar will escape. Either destroy the Zanzibar, or goof off
for the entire one minutes and fifty seconds it will take for the
Zanzibar to escape and you will re-enter Route Tube Mode and head into
another passageway in the back of the launch bay, so scroll down to the
paragraph (NUCLEAR REACTOR).
(CONTINUE STRAIGHT) You will continue forward, as opposed to
going up through the passage in the ceiling, and the tunnel will get a
little narrower. There will be a Zaku II F-2 further ahead in the
tunnel, so blast it. You will continue moving ever forward and will
enter the back of a large hangar where there will be a Zaku I, which
you should shoot down before the Gundam heads through a broken blast
door into another tunnel. The floor in a few places in this tunnel is
broken, so flames and wreckage will be strewn about the area, so try to
hug the walls so you do not take damage from the debris. You will enter
another large area. The Gundam will slowly float around as Amuro
deduces he has reached an enemy weapon storage facility. You will now
enter the Battle Sphere.
You will enter the Battle Sphere in the weapon storage area, and
sirens will blare as the background game music ceases to play. This
area is rather cramped, so fighting here can be kind of annoying. There
are a few machine gun turrets on the racks in the room that will fire
at you, so you should destroy them for the points. A few mobile suits
will enter the area through a broken blast door in the far wall. Zaku
I's will be your main enemy in the beginning, but Rick Doms and Zaku II
F-2's will start coming after you get a few kills. After you have
destroyed nine enemy mobile suits you will re-enter the Route Tube.
Back in the Route Tube the Gundam will slowly begin to move towards a
broken blast door labeled "Area D." Please proceed down to the
paragraph right below titled (NUCLEAR REACTOR).
(NUCLEAR REACTOR) As you exit the area into another hallway you
will pick up speed. You will approach a partially open blast door, but
the opening is too small to get through. Fire at the blast door to
knock one of the shutters out of the way, otherwise you will smash into
them and take damage. After passing through the blast doors you will
find yourself in an enormous reactor chamber. The main shaft of the
reactor is the gray column in the center of the room. There are several
destroyable yellow and red fuel rods sticking out the sides of the
reactor that you should destroy with your multi-lock. There are also a
multitude of small gun turrets suspended on girders around the reactor.
You will circle around the reactor, so blast the fuel rods before they
retract into the reactor. A Zaku II F-2 will come from the right, so
destroy it. You will soon stop above a large circular transformer.
Destroy the transformer, or let ten seconds pass, and you will drift to
the right a little before you stop near another transformer with two
fuel rods and gun turrets beneath it. A Zaku II F-2 will enter from the
beneath you, so destroy it, the two fuel rods, the turrets, and the
transformer, or wait ten seconds, and you will start moving again. You
will drift a bit to the right again and will stop in front of a third
green transformer with two fuel rods and two gun turrets beneath it.
Destroy the transformer and all that surrounds it, or do nothing for
ten seconds, and you will gain circle to the right again. You will fly
up and hover in place above a fourth transformer, with four gun turrets
on the strut around it, as well as a Zaku I below it. Destroy the Zaku
I, and then destroy the transformer and surrounding gun turrets, or sit
around like an idiot for ten seconds, and the Gundam will move on. You
will fly up, where there will be more fuel rods sticking out of the
reactor. The fuel rods will be positioned in clusters of four, so use
your multi-lock to destroy as many as possible before they retract into
the reactor. You will do a full circle around the reactor before flying
up another level where Amuro will discover the main unit for the
nuclear reactor. There are a few small gun turrets on the top and
bottom of the nuclear reactor. The main core of the reactor is shielded
by large pieces of rotating metal. The rotating metal barriers that
protect the reactors core can be blasted off by destroying the clamps
that secure them at the base of the reactor. After the large metal
walls are destroyed you will be able to see four large gray cylinders
rotating inside of the inner sanctum of the nuclear reactor. Destroy
all of the large gray cylinders, gun turrets, and metal panels around
the reactor and the cover of the main reactor core will open. You will
be able to see the main core of the nuclear reactor; a large glowing
orange sphere set in the center of the reactor. Destroy the core of the
nuclear reactor and the reactor will begin to explode. Run away!!! You
will quickly fly down the reactor shaft and stop briefly in front of a
blast door. The blast doors will begin to close, so quickly blast the
doors with your beam rifle so you will not take damage when you ram
through the door into the tunnel on the other side. The background game
music will change to a more menacing tune as you travel down the
hallway, and the hall will begin to erupt with explosions. Be sure to
stick to the right side of the passage to avoid striking a canister
floating along the left wall. You will exit the passageway into a very
large launch bay. There will be one Musai right in front of you when
you exit the tunnel, and you will fly to the front of the Musai just in
time to see another Musai fly out of Solomon before the blast doors
shut.
You will now exit Route Tube Mode back into the Battle Sphere. You
will be attacked by several Zaku II F-2's and Zaku I's that will enter
the area from the passages in the back wall, but after you destroy
seven of the enemy units will stop coming. Destroy the Musai and enemy
units in the area and you will re-enter the Route Tube Mode and head
towards the large blast doors towards the front of the launch bay.
There will be a small blast door in the bulkhead of the right side of
the large blast door, so shoot it out (otherwise you will slam through
it, taking lots of damage) and you will exit back out into space. You
will fly past the Musai that just exited Solomon and you will do a turn
around and face the Musai before entering the Battle Sphere again.
Back in the Battle Sphere again. There will be two Musai in the
area, as well as several Gattle that will be flying around minding
their own business. There will be a many Zaku II F-2's and Rick Doms
that will attack you as well. Quickly destroy the two Musai before they
flee the area and then focus on the enemy units. Once you have
destroyed a total of twenty enemy mobile suits in this area this part
of the mission will end. Now, once again where you go from here will
depend on what the heck you did during the mission. Depending on
whether or not the Zanzibar that was launching while you were inside of
the space fortress Solomon was destroyed or not will determine your
path.
If you destroyed the Zanzibar before it could escape then you will
be called to pursue the Zeon fleet escaping from Solomon, so head down
to the section titled (PURSUE ESCAPE FLEET). If you did not destroy the
Zanzibar then Amuro will notice that something is happening back at
Solomon and he will go to investigate, so skip down to the segment sub-
titled (FIGHT BIG ZAM).
(GUARD FLEET) If the two Salamis battleships in the beginning of
the mission did survive then Captain Bright will inform you that he
wants you to assist in guarding the Federation's main fleet. Instead of
entering the space fortress Solomon when you jump into Route Tube Mode,
you will instead head up and over the fortress. You will end up having
to guard Tianem's Magellan battleship as they prepare the Solar System
to fire a second time. You must protect the Magellan from being
destroyed, and if it is destroyed you will fail the mission. But fear
not, for there are two Balls guarding the Magellan as well! *snicker*
The Magellan's Health Gauge will be displayed on the left side of the
screen, so watch it. The Magellan will come under attack from three
groups of three Rick Doms at a time. Destroy all nine Rick Doms and
this part of the mission will end. However, now the real trouble
starts. After a short cutscene you will be attacked by Shin Matsunaga's
06R Special Attack Force, headed by Shin himself, piloting his MS-06R-
1(SM) Zaku II High Mobility Type Shin Matsunaga Custom armed with a
Zaku Machinegun, as well as two of his wingmates who will be in
standard MS-06R-1 Zaku II High Mobility Types armed with Zaku
Machineguns. Now, you must still protect that Magellan from being
destroyed, however its Health Gauge will be completely refilled. Shin
Matsunaga and one of his wingmates will attack you alone, however the
second wingmen will focus on attacking the Magellan. That does not
rock! These guys are all pretty damned tough, and will take a lot to
defeat. That said it is far better to attack them in melee combat.
Destroy the two wingmen first before attacking Shin. Once the two
wingmen have been destroyed concentrate on beating the stuffing out of
Shin's High Mobility Zaku II. Once Shin Matsunaga has been reduced to
only 10% of his Health Gauge he will retreat from battle, back towards
Solomon. Tianem will order the Solar System to fire for a second time.
After a few movies play you will get a report that something is
happening back at Solomon, so skip on down to the section (FIGHT BIG
ZAM).
(PERSUE ESCAPE FLEET) If you destroyed the Zanzibar while you were
inside of Solomon then Captain Bright will radio Amuro and tell him
that he and Sayla are ordered to pursue the escaping enemy fleet that
is heading to A Baoa Qu. You will watch a cutscene as the Doroa and
several Musai battleships flee from Solomon. The Gundam and Sayla in
her Core Booster will be hot on their tail though. As the cutscene ends
the Gundam and Sayla's Core Booster will be in Route Tube Mode. You
will pass a Salamis battleship, but it will explode and an MA-05 Bigro
will zoom across the screen and head to the Doroa. You will now enter
the Battle Sphere. Kelly Layzner, the pilot of the Bigro, is your main
opponent and he will have two Zaku II F-2's allied with him. Sayla will
offer to support you in the Core Booster, so accept her help if you
want it. First destroy the Zaku II F-2s as they come, five of which
will be armed with Zaku Machineguns, and the last one armed with a Zaku
Bazooka. After the six Zaku II F-2's are all destroyed you will be free
to take care of Kelly's Bigro. Just fight Kelly's Bigro the same way
you took on Tokwan's Bigro in Mission 1. The Bigro's main tactic is to
fly forward for awhile before turning around to face you. When it lines
up with you when it turns it will fire its main cannon and missiles, or
use its Special Attack before charging forward. Fire at Bigro when it
is heading away from you, and then wait until it starts to turn around.
When it turns around and charges you shoot at it as it comes towards
you, but be sure to barrel roll out of the way of its beam fire and
missiles. When the Bigro passes you up either try to attack it with
your beam saber or shoot it in the back as it heads away from you.
Don't stay in front of the Bigro when it is heading straight towards
you because it may attack you with its melee attack, and those claw
pinchers can do a good bit of damage. You should also use your Special
Attack when the Bigro is heading towards you and you will knock off
pretty substantial chunks of its Health Gauge. Once the Bigro has lost
all of its Health Kelly Layzner will retreat, but if you allow the
fight to drag on for over two minutes and thirty seconds the fight will
end anyway. Oh well, time for some movies.
After the movie scenes end you will again be thrown back into the
Battle Sphere. Three enemies will come in from the direction of the
Doroa. One of them is Anavel Gato piloting his MS-09RS(AG) Rick Dom
Anavel Gato Custom armed with a Beam Bazooka (Rick Dom). Gato will also
be flanked by two Zaku II F-2's, one with a Zaku Machinegun and the
other with a Zaku Bazooka. The Zaku II F-2 with the Zaku Bazooka is
being piloted by Karius, but the other guy is just some nameless
nobody. If you take a good bit of damage Sayla will offer to come in
and support you in her Core Booster. Aim for the Zaku II F-2 with the
machinegun first, as he is the weakest. Melee him to death and he will
explode. Next concentrate on Karius' Zaku II F-2, which can be kind of
hard since Gato will try to be up your ass all the damn time. Karius is
a bit tougher than that other nobody, so he will take a bit more of a
pounding, but once his Zaku II F-2 loses all of its Health it will stop
moving, but it won't be destroyed. After those two damn Zaku II F-2s
are out of the way it is time to put the hurt on Anavel Gato's
hideously colored Rick Dom. Just melee the hell out of Gato's Rick Dom
and he will go down after a while. After Gato's Rick Dom has been
reduced to just 5% of its Health Gauge the mission will end! Whoo hoo!
(FIGHT BIG ZAM) You will be in the Route Tube chasing after Dozle
Zabi in his giant monstrous mobile armor, the MA-08 Big Zam. You will
pass a few Salamis battleships, which Dozle will easily fry with the
Big Zam's mega particle cannons. DO NOT damage the remains of the
Salamis battleships! The wrecked Salamis' are not completely destroyed,
so if you hit them again they will explode again, earning you a -5,000
penalty to your score! Don't waste your damn time shooting at the Big
Zam. The Big Zam is equipped with an I-Field, so you cannot even hope
to damage it with your Beam Rifle (Gundam). However, solid projectiles
can still damage it, as well as melee attacks, so its open season for
the Gundam's Hyper Bazooka Special Attack, head vulcans, and beam saber
slashing frenzy. You will enter the Battle Sphere with the Big Zam, but
you won't be alone. You will also have to contend with Zaku II F-2's
that will come two at a time and harass you, but after you destroy ten
of them they will stop coming. So now it's time to deal with that damn
Big Zam. The best way to do it is to fly right up to the giant mobile
armor and unload all of your Special Attacks into the Big Zam. When you
run out of Special Attacks, slash the Big Zam with your beam saber
while the Special Gauge refills. Just keep this up. The Big Zam is a
huge target, and it will take a while, but once it has been reduced to
only 50% of its Health Gauge you get to watch more movies.
Sleggar Crash!!! Poor, poor Sleggar. Oh well, his valiant sacrifice
was not in vain. You will again enter combat against that pesky Big
Zam. Annoyingly, though, the Big Zam's Health Gauge has been completely
refilled, so it is at 100%. But that pesky I-Field is no more, so it's
perfectly fine to blast the crap out of the Big Zam with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam) now. Once again, the Big Zam and you are not alone in your
fight. You will be attacked by a whole lot of Rick Doms. They will come
two at a time, but once you destroy twenty of them the Rick Doms will
stop coming. Now you can concentrate on the Big Zam! Just keep
attacking the Big Zam with your Special Attacks and beam saber. After
you reduce the Big Zam to only having 15% of its Health Gauge remaining
it will instantly switch over to another movie scene and the mission
will end successfully. And you thought the stage was long last time!
Stage 4 (Replay):
-----------------
The Earth Federation has successfully captured the space fortress
Solomon. The White Base is on reconnaissance in Side 5 space, charged
to mop up any Zeon remnants that may be lurking in the area after
fleeing from Solomon. Having detected an enemy fleet near Texas Colony
the White Base prepares to attack; however Amuro Ray has no idea he is
being lured into a trap.
You will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam). You will fly through a debris field in Route Tube Mode for a
little while before entering into a clearing where a Chivvay is already
waiting. Two MS-09R Rick Doms will fly into view, so destroy them
quickly before you enter the Battle Sphere. Once you enter the Battle
Sphere head over and destroy that Chivvay by multi-locking it to death
with your main weapon. After twenty-two seconds have gone by Sayla Mass
will offer to come in and support you in her FF-X7[Bst] Core Booster.
You can accept her help if you want it. Several more Rick Doms will
attack you, but ignore them for now. There will be two Musais that will
move through the area, one from the east and one for the west. They
will exit the mission area if you do not destroy them first, so ignore
the Rick Doms and destroy the two Musais. After you destroy all three
battleships, or destroy all eighteen Rick Doms, M'Quve will arrive on
the scene in his prototype YMS-15 Gyan. If you haven't already then
destroy all of the Rick Doms, which will continuously come until you
have destroyed a total of nineteen of them, or destroy all three
battleships if you haven't done that. Just be sure to wreck everything
in the area before you turn to face M'Quve's Gyan. Attack the Gyan in
close combat and just slash away. Compared to some of the other
characters M'Quve is very weak. After the Gyan has been reduced to only
40% of its Health Gauge this part of the mission will end.
M'Quve will lure Amuro close to Texas colony. After a brief amount
of time in Route Tube Mode with the Gyan buzzing around you annoyingly
shooting missiles. One of the large meteors around you will explode and
Amuro will exclaim that they are mines. You will be dumped back into
the Battle Sphere. The only enemy is basically just M'Quve's Gyan,
which now has 100% of its Health back, and a whole lot of large meteor
mines. After ten seconds in this area Sayla will ask to support you
again, so call on her if you want her to help you beat on M'Quve. Just
attack M'Quve in close combat and he will go down quickly. Once the
Gyan has 40% of its Health remaining this segment of the mission will
end and you will watch a movie.
M'Quve has lured Amuro all the way inside of Texas Colony. The skies
are literally littered with small hide mines. There are hundreds of
them! M'Quve's Gyan, which again has its Health Gauge refilled to 100%,
will zip around and fire rockets at you. Just fly forward and attack
the Gyan in close combat and, once again, when the Gyan is reduced to
40% of its Health Gauge M'Quve will back off.
A few beams will come seemingly out of nowhere, and the Gundam must
dodge out of the way as a light red mobile suit speeds onto the scene.
Now you have to contend with Char Aznable in his brand new MS-14S(CA)
Gelgoog Char Aznable Custom armed with a Beam Rifle (Gelgoog). M'Quve's
Gyan is still here as well, and it's Health Gauge has been replenished
to 100% AGAIN!!! The Gyan will square off against you first as Char's
Gelgoog flies around. Ignore the Gyan at the moment and find Char's
Gelgoog. Attack Char's Gelgoog in close combat and continue to beat on
it until it has been reduced to having 30% of its Health Gauge
remaining, after which the Gelgoog will retreat. Now that Char is out
of the way, let's get back to beating the hell out of M'Quve for the
umpteenth time. Just beat the Gyan savagely with your beam saber, and
once it has been reduced to 40% of its Health Gauge it will gain
temporary invulnerability. M'Quve will fret like hell and Amuro will
tell him that his dirty tricks are no match for Gundam's power. After
they are done yapping the Gyan will lose its temporary invincibility so
you can continue to attack it without mercy. Once the Gyan has been
liberated of all of its precious Health M'Quve will ask that his
antique vase be given to Kycilia Zabi before the Gyan explodes. Once
M'Quve is dead and Char's Gelgoog has been driven off this part of the
mission will end.
You will exit Texas colony and Bright will inform you that they are
exchanging fire with an enemy fleet. You will enter Route Tube Mode and
fly towards Commandant Wakkein's Magellan, which is exchanging fire
with a Chivvay and Musai. Two Rick Doms will enter from the right as
you go forward, so destroy them. You will pass Wakkein's Magellan and
circle around the front and start to fly backwards. The Magellan will
be destroyed and the Gundam will turn around and face the two Zeon
battleships before entering the Battle Sphere.
Commandant Wakkein! NOOOOO! It is so time for revenge! The Musai and
Chivvay will already be in front of you, and a few new Rick Doms will
be guarding them. After fifteen seconds have gone by Kai Shiden will
ask if you want him to come in and support you in his RX-77-2 Guncannon
armed with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon). Ignore the Chivvay and
Musai, and take care of those Rick Doms first. The Rick Doms will come
two at a time, and after you destroy eighteen of them they will stop
coming. After you are done with the Rick Doms go and take care of those
battleships. After you destroy the Musai and Chivvay this segment will
end, or if you let this part of the mission drag on for over three
minutes you will automatically be taken to the next part, even if you
didn't destroy the battleships.
You will watch a cutscene as a Musai flies through space. A few Rick
Doms will launch and then a red Zaku will arrive. You will cruise
towards a Musai and two Rick Doms and enter the Battle Sphere. After
twelve seconds go by since the start of this new Battle Sphere Kai
Shiden will again offer to come in and support you. First take care of
that Musai, and then destroy the Rick Doms as they come. Johnny Ridden
will show up after a short while in his MS-06R-2(JR) Zaku II Improved
High Mobility Type Johnny Ridden Custom armed with a Giant Bazooka, but
ignore him until you have destroyed the Musai and all of the Rick Doms.
After you have destroyed a total of eighteen Rick Doms they will stop
coming, so you can now concentrate on fighting Johnny Ridden, "the
Crimson Lightning." Compared to most other character fights, Ridden is
a fairly easy match. Just beat up on Johnny Ridden in close combat and
he will go done very quickly. After Johnny's Zaku II H.M. Type has been
reduced to 30% of its Health he will retreat and the mission will end.
Stage 5 (Replay):
-----------------
After returning to Solomon, which the Federation Forces have renamed
Konpei Island and are using as a forward base, the White Base is sent
out to investigate a series of mysterious incidents. The Federation has
been getting reports of strange attacks on some of their warships.
These attacks come out of no where, often having devastating effect,
but when the area is searched they find no enemies. Captain Bright
suspects the Federation brass are just using them as decoys to lure the
enemy out, but he accepts the mission anyway.
Amuro will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam, armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam), to find what is behind all of the attacks. You will start in
Route Tube Mode and travel forward through a cluttered debris field. An
MS-06F-2 Zaku II F-2 armed with a Zaku Machinegun will spring from the
lower-left corner of the screen, so destroy it. An MS-09R Rick Dom
armed with a Giant Bazooka will also spring out from behind a hunk of
debris on the right, so waste that sucker too as your Gundam and White
Base move into the Battle Sphere. In this Battle Sphere portion of the
mission you must guard the White Base against enemy attacks. The White
Base's Health Gauge will be shown on the left side of the screen, so be
sure to pay attention to it because if the White Base is destroyed you
will fail the mission. The White Base will come under attack from Zaku
II F-2's with either Zaku Machineguns or Zaku Bazookas and Rick Doms
with Giant Bazookas. The enemies will come two at a time, and once you
destroy a total of nineteen enemy units this part of the mission will
end. The White Base will continue to move forward through the shoal
zone until a blast strikes White Base's engines.
The enemy reveals itself! It is the Newtype-use mobile armor MAN-03
Braw Bro, piloted by Challia Bull. The Braw Bro won't really move very
much as compared to most of the other Zeon mobile armors you have
fought so far. In fact it won't move very much at all, and will spend
most of its time just facing you and firing. You must again guard the
White Base, but the ships Health Gauge has been refilled to 100%, so
you're starting fresh, but if the White Base should be destroyed you
will fail the mission. The Braw Bro is being escorted by three Rick
Doms and a Zaku II F-2, so you should take care of them first. Continue
to destroy the enemy units as they come, and after you have destroyed a
total of ten enemies they will cease coming. After those enemy units
are destroyed it is time to destroy the Braw Bro. You should definitely
attack the Braw Bro in close combat. The best way to deal with the Braw
Bro is by attacking it in close combat! Get right in front of the Braw
Bro and slash away. This will make it harder for the Braw Bro to attack
you with its oddly arranged mega particle cannons. You should also
unload your Special Attack directly into the Braw Bro's face; this will
quickly drain large portions of its Health Gauge. Once the Braw Bro has
lost all of its Health Gauge Challia will winder if the pilot of the
Gundam is a genuine Newtype, and then the Braw Bro will explode. Amuro
will worry that the Gundam's responses are far too slow to keep up with
him and the mission will end.
Stage 6 (Replay):
-----------------
There has been a large-scale movement of the Zeon fleet from the lunar
city of Granada. The fleet appears to be heading towards the massive
Zeon space fortress A Baoa Qu. Seeing the opportunity to attack the
Zeon fleet in transit, the Federation launches the final stages of
Operation Star One and begins to head to A Baoa Qu.
You will launch in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle
(Gundam)... but you probably knew that by now. You will spend the vast
majority of the first part of the mission traveling in the Route Tube.
The Earth Federation Space Fleet is clashing with the Zeon Fleet from
Granada, so all hell is breaking loose. As you move forward, past the
exploding and damaged Salamis battleships, keep this in mind: DO NOT
hit the damaged Federation battleships! As most of them are getting
damaged there is a chance that you hitting them might destroy them. You
destroy an allied unit earns you a -5,000 point penalty, so just watch
where you're shooting. Three MS-09R Rick Doms armed with Giant Bazookas
will swarm from the bottom and right as you pass an exploding Salamis,
so quickly destroy them as you move forward. A Zanzibar battleship will
zoom across the screen from the left, so you can try to multi-lock
attack it to destroy some of its turrets, but just be careful not to
hit the Salamis that it will fly behind. Two MS-06F Zaku II armed with
Zaku Machineguns will enter from the bottom-right, so destroy them
quickly and open your multi-lock window or prepare your Special Attack
to bombard a Musai that will fly by from the left side of the screen as
you travel forward. Two Rick Doms will enter the area, so waste them
both quickly before you fly underneath the Salamis. As you pass under
the Salamis open your multi-lock window and prepare to bombard the
Musai up ahead with beam fire and when you lock onto it blast the
battleship, and continue blasting the Musai, until it is destroyed as
you keep cruising forward. You will travel past a wrecked Salamis,
behind which will be two Rick Doms. Take great care not to hit the
wrecked Salamis as you fire at the Rick Doms. As you continue to travel
forward you will begin to hear a strange noise... Almost like someone
is calling out. You will come across three Salamis, and one of the
captains will ask your assistance because his entire mobile suit
compliment has been destroyed. But, it is already too late; two of the
Salamis will be picked off by beam fire from a seemingly phantom enemy.
Quickly open your multi-lock and wait, as three Rick Doms will fly in
from the top of the screen and destroy the third Salamis, so once all
three Rick Doms are in your crosshairs, fire and destroy them. You will
fly forward a small bit more and enter the Battle Sphere.
You enter the Battle Sphere and Amuro will spot an enemy detachment,
and you should too, it's right there hiding behind a big rock. There is
one Musai partially hidden behind a very large asteroid, so fly forward
until you reach it. After about one minute and thirteen seconds go by
Kai Shiden in his RX-77-2 Guncannon armed with a Custom Beam Rifle
(Guncannon) will call in asking if you want him to support you, so take
him if you wish. The commander of the Musai will spot the white mobile
suit and order the ship to run, and the Musai will promptly move
forward a bit and make a wide turn as it attempts to flee the area.
Squads of Rick Doms, which will come three at a time, are guarding the
Musai in the area. Don't waste time with the Rick Doms right now
though, because you must destroy that Musai before it escapes. An even
better idea could be to destroy the Musai's two engine blocks so it can
not escape the battlefield and you can pick off more individual bits of
the battleship later. A second Musai will enter the battleship once the
first one has been destroyed or has left the area, so destroy this one
as well. Soon, that odd humming noise will return and the battlefield
will be surrounded by small, sporadically moving, unknown enemy
objects. Amuro hears someone calling... Lalah... Those tiny annoying
objects flitting about (which are actually Bits) make locking onto the
Rick Doms in the area rather frustrating, because if you aren't paying
attention you could end up locked onto a Bit and not a Rick Dom. After
you have destroyed twenty-one Rick Doms this part of the mission will
end.
Amuro will begin to wonder where that noise is coming from. What is
this odd feeling that someone is calling him? Lalah? Who is Lalah? ...
Lalah is the young Zeon officer Lalah met in Side 6, and she is
piloting her Newtype-use mobile armor, the MAN-08 Elmeth. Lalah will
feel Amuro's presence and go to investigate herself. You will enter the
Battle Sphere against Lalah's Elmeth and Amuro will wonder who is
piloting this bizarre machine. There will also be two Rick Doms in the
area when you fight Lalah, and when you destroy them two more will
arrive, but that will be it. You should try to end this fight as
quickly as possible to prevent the Elmeth from releasing its Bits with
its Special Attack, which is awfully annoying. The Elmeth fights
similar to the Braw Bro from the last mission, although it is a little
faster. Don't waste your time shooting at the Elmeth. Just fly up into
its "face" and use your Special Attack to unload bazooka rounds into
its grill. If the Elmeth does end up releasing its Bits just try to use
your multi-lock to take out several of them quickly. After the Elmeth
has been reduced to 50% of its Health you will cut to a movie scene.
After the movie is done playing it's back to the fray. The Elmeth
will retain the damage it took last time, so it will have about 50% of
its Health Gauge remaining. The Gundam and Elmeth are back in the
Battle Sphere, but Amuro will talk to Lalah with his Newtype powers,
denoted by a crazy psychedelic flittering blue background. While the
background is blue and Amuro and Lalah are talking, you cannot attack
the Elmeth but you will still be able to move around, so use this time
to try to get in close to the Elmeth. Once the background returns to
the normal space setting you will be able to attack the Elmeth again,
and it will attack you as well if you are near enough. You will
continue to shift in and out of the blue background and space
background every couple dozen seconds. You do not necessarily have to
fight Lalah's Elmeth in this segment, you can just sit still or go grab
something to eat and wait for it to end. But if you are able to
decrease the Elmeth's Health to 1% you will not have to fight the
Elmeth in the next part of this mission, so it is probably a good idea
to go after the Elmeth now. The first time you re-enter the Newtype
flash background and Lalah will ask why she couldn't have met Amuro
sooner in her life. Once that segment ends, and you return to normal
game play, but not long afterwards you will again enter the Newtype
communique background and Amuro will hear the voices of his comrades
back on the White Base. The background will fade back to space and you
will return to the fight. The next time you enter the star-crossed blue
background will be the last. Lalah will tell Amuro she doesn't sense
any family in his heart. Amuro will say that makes no difference and
this segment will end.
Now Char Aznable is back on the scene in his MS-14S(CA) Gelgoog Char
Aznable Custom armed with a Beam Rifle (Gelgoog), and after the Red
Comet effortlessly obliterates two Salamis battleships he finds his
target: The Gundam. You will re-enter the Battle Sphere, only now
Char's Gelgoog will be here along with Lalah in her Elmeth. The Elmeth
still has any damage it may have taken during the last parts of the
mission. In the beginning Lalah will sit it out, in fact you can't even
lock onto the Elmeth. Sayla will also soon show up in her FF-X7[Bst]
Core Booster, but all she'll do is fly around and talk. Don't bother
with ranged combat in this fight. Attack Char's Gelgoog in close combat
and just slash away, barrel roll around to the back of the enemy, and
then start to melee them again. Once Char's Gelgoog has been reduced to
60% of its Health, Lalah will become afraid and she will attack you to
defend Char, and will not stop attacking you until it the Elmeth has
been reduced to 1% of its Health. However, if you had reduced Lalah's
Elmeth down to 1% of its Health in the last segment of the mission,
Lalah will not attack you when Char's Gelgoog falls below 60% Health.
Once Char's Gelgoog has been reduced to 25% of its Health Gauge the
mission will end.
Stage 7 (Replay):
-----------------
Sensing that the Principality of Zeon will be defeated, and wishing
to ease the suffering the war has placed on his people, Degwin Zabi
attempts to end the war by negotiating a peace treaty with the Earth
Federation's General Revil. However, Degwin's eldest son Gihren Zabi
does not share in his father's pessimism over the suspected outcome of
the war, or his concern for the people of Zeon. Gihren decides that his
father is too weak to rule and decides to utilize his secret weapon,
the Solar-Ray. The Solar-Ray, the former colony of Mahal, which has
been converted into an enormous colony laser, is fired at the meeting
Federation and Zeon Fleets. One-third of the Federation's space fleet
is destroyed, as well as the Great Degwin, flagship of Degwin Zabi and
Zeon's space forces. Both Degwin Zabi and General Revil are killed by
the attack, and Gihren Zabi assumes total control of the Principality
of Zeon. Facing a new, determined enemy the remaining Earth Federation
Space Fleet has no choice but to attack Zeon's remaining space
fortress. The White Base is assigned to attack from the S Field. The
Battle of A Baoa Qu has begun.
You will launch from White Base in the RX-78-2 Gundam, armed with
the Beam Rifle (Gundam). You will be in Route Tube Mode for a little
while during the beginning of this mission. You will move forward past
a few Salamis battleships, with some Publics and Balls flying near you.
An MS-06F Zaku II armed with a Zaku Machinegun will enter from the
bottom-right, so quickly blast it. You will continue traveling forward
and another Zaku II will enter from the left from over a Salamis, so
lock onto it (to avoid accidentally hitting the Salamis) and destroy
it. Another Zaku II will enter from the lower-right chasing a Ball, so
destroy it. As you continue forward, three Gattle will enter from the
right, top-center, and left sides of the screen so quickly multi-lock
and blast them as you travel forward. A Musai will be in front of you
with a Zaku II hovering underneath its left engine block. Use your
multi-lock as you fly by to destroy the multiple parts of the Musai and
the Zaku II beneath it. Continue to blast the Musai until you hopefully
destroy it, as the Gundam will make a slow, banking turn to the left
and fly over the Musai. Once you pass the Musai you will see three MS-
09R Rick Doms armed with Giant Bazookas at various distances, one
partially hidden behind a piece of wreckage. Use your multi-lock to
snipe the three Rick Doms, but shoot at them singly as you get closer
to them. You will continue to fly forward and another Musai will come
into view. Use your multi-lock to blast at the Musai as fly near it.
Once you get near the Musai you will enter the Battle Sphere.
In the Battle Sphere the immediate enemies will be the Musai that
was in front of you, as well as tons of non-hostile Gattle that will
fly from A Baoa Qu, but soon three MS-14A Gelgoogs armed with Beam
Rifles (Gelgoog) will enter the combat area. You must destroy all three
of the enemy Gelgoogs and the Musai to continue on. Once the Musai and
all three Gelgoogs are obliterated you will re-enter Route Tube Mode.
You will head away from the now wrecked Musai back towards the White
Base. Three Gattle will quickly swoop across the screen from the left,
so if you are fast you may be able to destroy them with a series of
multi-lock beam blasts. Four Gattle will then appear from the left
flying in formation, so use your multi-lock to destroy them. A Rick Dom
will pop out from behind a chunk of wreckage, so shoot it twice to
destroy it. A Zaku II will fly from the right, so quickly destroy it
and another Zaku II that will come in from the front. Another Zaku II
will fly out from behind a heap of wreckage on the right, just as the
White Base comes into view, so quickly destroy it. The Gundam will fly
forward and make a shallow pass along the right side of the White Base
and fly ahead of it before entering the Battle Sphere.
Once you enter the Battle Sphere you will have to protect and guard
the White Base from enemy attacks. If the White Base should lose all of
its Health and be destroyed you will fail the mission, so be sure to
keep a watch on the White Base's Health Gauge on the left side of the
screen. There will already be two Musai and three Rick Doms in the area
when you enter the Battle Sphere. You should destroy the two Musais
first, as they can cause the most damage to White Base the fastest.
Just use your Special Attack to destroy the Musais quickly. After three
seconds have gone by since you entered this Battle Sphere segment
Hayato Kobayashi will offer to support you in his RX-77-2 Guncannon
armed with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon). After the two Musai are
destroyed, head closer to White Base and concentrate on destroying
enemy units as they come. After forty seconds have gone by since you
entered this Battle Sphere Kai Shiden, who is also in an RX-77-2
Guncannon armed with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon), will offer to
support you and Hayato. Enemy units consist of a mixture of Rick Doms,
Gelgoogs, and a few Zaku II's. After you destroy both Musais and a
total of twelve enemy units you will again enter the Route Tube Mode to
go to the next area.
Now where you go next, to be quite frank I have no idea how it is
chosen. It's not chosen by Gundam's remaining Health, White Base's
remaining Health, time, score, specific enemy kills... I just don't
know what it is, and it may even be completely random. You will either
head to an extended version of the Dolos carrier battle, or you will
and fight Anavel Gato. If you end up heading to the Dolos, just scroll
down a bit to the (DOLOS FIGHT) paragraph, but if you end up fighting
Anavel Gato scroll past the next section to the paragraph (GATO FIGHT).
(DOLOS FIGHT) The game will enter a cutscene where Amuro's Gundam
will speed towards A Baoa Qu. On his way he will encounter another of
Gihren Zabi's monstrous creations, the Dolos super-carrier. This
enormous behemoth of a battleship dwarfs every other unit on the
battlefield. Three MA-05 Bigro mobile armors will launch from the Dolos
to intercept you. As this part of the mission begins you will be in the
Route Tube Mode again. Two Gattle will fly towards you, so quickly
shoot them down, as a Musai battleship comes into view on the left. Use
your Special Attack to take out the Musai and then multi-lock to
destroy the three Gattle that will fly in from the left. After passing
the Musai two of the Bigros will enter from the left and fly past you.
These two Bigros are quite weak, and can be destroyed in just two shots
from your beam rifle, so take them both out as you chase them closer to
the Dolos. You will come up the Dolos' left side and make a left turn
around the back of the Dolos. There will be a Musai parked off to the
back-left side behind the Dolos that you may be able to destroy with
your Special Attack, but if you miss it now you can come back and get
it later once you are in the Battle Sphere. The Gundam will turn around
and cross under the bottom-left side of the Dolos. There will be two
Zaku II's armed with Zaku Bazookas down there, so quickly destroy them
both. You will come out from underneath the bottom of the Dolos and fly
up the side, where a Rick Dom will fly in from the left, so destroy it.
You will go over the top of the Dolos, where a Zaku II, which you
should blast quickly, will be standing on the edge. You will fly out
and away from the Dolos and hover in front of the monstrous mobile suit
carrier before entering the Battle Sphere.
Once you enter the Battle Sphere in front of the Dolos a five minute
countdown will begin. If you do not complete this part of the mission
before the five minutes run out you will fail the mission. Tons of
enemies will swarm around the Dolos until time runs out, so you can
rack up tons of points here. Enemies will be many Gelgoogs, Zaku II's,
and Rick Doms. But soon, after you have destroyed five enemy mobile
suits, the third Bigro will arrive. The third Bigro is much tougher
than those other two green pushovers you saw in the Route Tube leading
up to the Dolos, not to mention there will still be tons of enemy
mobile suits coming that you have to worry about as well. The easiest
way to take out that Bigro is to fly near the Dolos, and try to trick
it into crashing. The Bigro will come after you and may stupidly fly
right into the side of the Dolos and have trouble moving back into its
normal flight paths since it always wants to move forward, which makes
the Bigro little more than a big target. You can also destroy the
Dolos' large main guns, but they take a lot of damage and are only
worth 10 points, so it's easier and more worthwhile to just destroy
mobile suits instead. Just destroy the Bigro before the five minute
time limit runs out and Amuro will decide that he is going to head
inside the Dolos super-carrier. So in we go!
After entering the Dolos through one of the launch catapults decks
you will be in a narrow passage. You will travel through the Dolos in
Route Tube Mode. Open the multi-lock window as you enter a busy area so
you can quickly destroy the three targets in the room. The Gundam will
turn up and head into another corridor, only to nearly be rammed by two
GMs that are pulling an escape pod. (This is actually Jack "The
Halloween" Bayard and Adam Stingray in a re-creation of a scene from
Gundam: The Ride.) The two GM lugging the escape pod will cut in front
of you and take a hard left down an intersection in the hall. Amuro
will follow them and tell them to stay back as you enter a larger, but
cramped, room. You will move into the center of the area and enter the
Battle Sphere.
In the Battle Sphere you must contend with several enemies in a very
confined space. Chances are you will be bumping into all kinds of stuff
while fighting inside the Dolos. After three seconds go by Jack Bayard
will offer to support you in his RGM-79 GM armed with a Beam Spray Gun,
so let him kick some butt if you wish. You must destroy seven enemies,
which will consist of six Gelgoogs and one Zaku II. This can be kind of
annoying, because you will probably take more damage running into
moving lifts and crane arms and infrastructure then the enemies will
deal to you! After you have destroyed seven enemy units you will re-
enter Route Tube Mode and head down another passage. The passage will
take make slight dip upwards where a Zaku II standing. Quickly destroy
the Zaku II and Jack Bayard and Adam Stingray will come up behind you
lugging the life pod and tell you they're going to help you escape. The
Gundam will stop and hover by a large circular blast door, and the
Halloween Team GMs will crash through the door with the life pod and
the three of you will fly back out into space. As the Halloween Team
flies off to the left with the civilian life boat still safely in tow
Amuro head out to land on A Baoa Qu and the mission will end.
(GATO FIGHT) You can tell early if you're going to fight Gato
instead of heading to the Dolos because the background game music will
begin to play while the screen is still blacked out while the area is
loading. You will see a cutscene where several Rick Doms, obviously
still angry about the Zeon's defeat at Solomon, attack a few Salamis
battleships. You will be in the Route Tube for this part of the
mission. This is a pretty fast paced area, as the enemies move very
quick and there are plenty of damaged Salamis battleships that you can
accidentally destroy earning you a -5,000 point penalty! D'oh! As you
head past one Salamis that is cruising slowly to the left you will see
another Salamis get destroyed. As you reach the now destroyed Salamis
the three Rick Doms which destroyed it will jump out from behind the
wreckage and fly behind you. The Gundam will spin around, facing the
direction it just came from and the three Rick Doms there. Try to lock
onto and destroy each enemy singly, as they will buzz around for quite
awhile, so you have time to make your shots count. You will head to the
left and start to fly backwards for a good ways, all while dealing with
those pesky Rick Doms. You will strafe right and start moving forward
again and another Rick Dom will enter from the left and a MS-06F-2 Zaku
II F-2 armed with a Zaku Machinegun will also fly into the area to bug
you, so try to shoot them down as well. You will fly straight forward
and another Zaku II F-2 will enter from the lower right. Attempt to
destroy it and as you continue traveling a Rick Dom will enter from the
bottom of the area. Now try to destroy that Rick Dom and quickly
prepare to use your Special Attack, because you will fly over a Musai.
Be sure to destroy that Musai, because once you pass it you will move
onto the next area.
You will see a cutscene as Anavel Gato heads in piloting his brand
new MS-14A(AG) Gelgoog Anavel Gato Custom wielding a Prototype Beam
Rifle. As you enter the Battle Sphere for this fight a Salamis
battleship will move into the area behind you. Enemies that are already
in the area include Anavel Gato's Gelgoog, two Rick Doms and a Zaku II
F-2, as well as two Musai battleships will already be in the area.
After ten seconds in this area Hayato Kobayashi will radio in demanding
you let him come in and support you, Hayato of course still piloting
his RX-77-2 Guncannon. For now just ignore Anavel Gato's Gelgoog, which
will be difficult considering how hard he will try to be up your skirt
armor as much as possible. Concentrate on taking out the enemy Rick
Doms, single Zaku II F-2, and Musais before you turn to beat down Gato.
A few Rick Doms will keep coming after you destroy the initial round of
enemy mobile suits, but after you have defeated thirteen enemies they
will cease coming. So now it is time to take down Anavel Gato! Gato's
Gelgoog is unusually tough. Don't bother with ranged combat, just get
right into his face and tear him apart with melee combat. After you
have lowered Anavel Gato's Gelgoog to 15% of his Health Anavel Gato
will retreat. Amuro will wonder whether Char will be coming for him
soon and the mission will end.
Stage 8 (Replay):
-----------------
Amuro Ray draws closer to A Baoa Qu in his RX-78-2 Gundam armed with
the Beam Rifle (Gundam). Amuro realizes that the true enemy is actually
the Zabi family, and thinks that Char knows this too. But unbeknownst
to Amuro, Char has received a new unit, and seeing this as his last
chance to finally defeat the Gundam, the Red Comet is pulling out all
the stops.
You will begin the mission in Route Tube Mode, heading towards the
space fortress A Baoa Qu. As you begin you will come up behind a
Salamis battleship, and an MS-09R Rick Dom armed with a Giant Bazooka
will enter from the right from in front of the Salamis, while an MS-06F
Zaku II armed with a Zaku Machinegun enters from the front. Quickly
destroy them both as the Gundam heads forwards and up, where another
Rick Dom will enter from the top of the screen, and another Rick Dom
from the side right. As you speed forward an MS-14A Gelgoog armed with
a Beam rifle (Gelgoog) and another Rick Dom will enter the area, so
quickly waste them. Drawing ever closer another Gelgoog will fly out of
left field and destroy a Salamis as a Rick Dom comes from the lower
right. Destroy them both as you continue forward, past the exploding
Salamis. You will fly by a Musai, which is being guarded by two Rick
Doms, and slow down briefly allowing you to use your multi-lock to take
out parts of the Musai and the two Rick Doms before finishing the Musai
with your Special Attack. Continuing past the Musai you will travel
forward a good ways before a Rick Dom enters from the right. Destroy
the Rick Dom as you continue forward past another exploding Salamis and
you will come across a Chivvay battleship being guarded by a MS-06F
Zaku II with a Zaku Machinegun. Destroy the Zaku II with your beam
rifle as you fly over the Chivvay. The Gundam will tip downwards over
the Chivvay, so pump it full of bazooka shells with your Special Attack
as the Gundam heads downwards. You will bear down on top of a Musai
being guarded by two Rick Doms, so try to destroy the Rick Doms with
your beam rifle and take down the Musai with your Special Attack.
After passing the Musai you will level out again and start heading back
towards A Baoa Qu. You will now be attacked by the MSN-02 Zeong,
piloted by Char Aznable. As you continue to fly forward, past the
Salamis battleships, the Zeong will fly ahead of you and taking
potshots at you and destroying Federation battleships. Pretty much just
ignore the Zeong and concentrate on destroying the three Zaku II's that
will attack you as you go forward. As you continue forward, still being
harassed by the Zeong, you will come across a Musai being guarded by a
Rick Dom, so try to destroy both as you continue to zoom forward. After
you pass the Musai the Zeong will disappear as suddenly as it came.
Take out a Gelgoog on the right side of the screen and a Rick Dom that
will come from the left, and then destroy a Gattle that will come up
behind you from the right. At this point two RGM-79 GMs will fly up
from behind you. It is actually Bernard Monsha and South Burning, two
of the three members of the Immortal Fourth Team. As you head past a
Salamis the two Fourth Team pilots will be amazed that they are flying
with the Gundam. You and your two new GM friends will encounter an
enemy squad of four Rick Doms and two Gelgoogs, which you should try to
multi-lock to get as many kills before Monsha and Burning kill them
first. You, Burning and Monsha will continue forward, and two more
Gelgoogs will appear, so try to kill them before the Fourth Team gets
them first. The two members of the Fourth Team will leave now and you
will continue ahead a short way, just until a Chivvay comes into view
and you will enter the Battle Sphere.
In the Battle Sphere there will already be two Musais near you, and
the one Chivvay far in the back. Ignore the battleships for now and
take out the enemies as they come. Enemy units will consist of many
Rick Doms and Gelgoogs, as well as a few Zaku IIs. Also, there will be
a steady supply of Gattle flying from the direction of A Baoa Qu that
will spam their large missile Special Attack as they fly forward even
though they aren't really hostile enemies. After you destroy twenty-
three enemy mobile suits they will stop coming, so it is time to take
out the battleships. Once you have destroyed the single Chivvay and the
two Musais, another two Musai battleships will enter the area from the
direction of A Baoa Qu. Destroy these next two Musai and this part of
the mission will end. Amuro will feel that the enemy is deep within A
Baoa Qu and blast off to the asteroid base.
You are back in Route Tube Mode for this next part, as Amuro has now
reached the surface of A Baoa Qu. You will fly along the outside of the
space fortress launch bays, and just like during your fly-by of Solomon
use of the multi-lock feature is highly recommended. Three Rick Doms
will be hanging out near a hangar, so quickly blast them and the Gattle
that flies by. As you fly nearer to one of the launch bays open your
multi-lock window, because as soon as you come near the hangar three
Gelgoogs will zoom out and guard a launching Musai. Release the lock-on
once it has captured the three Gelgoogs and the Musai in your
crosshairs, which will destroy the three Gelgoogs and several bits of
the Musai, so just sink a few more beam shots into the Musai and it
will be destroyed. As you fly past that Musai a Zaku II will come in
from the bottom, so destroy it. A wrecked Salamis battleship will crash
into A Baoa Qu and explode so be sure to quickly move down so you don't
crash into the wreck. Two Rick Doms will enter the area from the top of
the screen, so quickly destroy both them before they are able to escape
into one of the hangars in the side of A Baoa Qu. A Zaku II will come
up from the lower-left, so destroy it and then open your multi-lock
window and wait a second. After a second you will lock onto a Gelgoog
that has entered the area, and three gun turrets on the surface of A
Baoa Qu, so release the Square Button to blast them all. Activate your
multi-lock again to try and blast a few more gun turrets on A Baoa Qu.
You will continue forward and watch as a Salamis battleship crashes
into one of the hangars and explodes. Destroy the two Rick Doms by the
destroyed Salamis and as you travel a little more destroy a Gelgoog
that will enter your view. Two Gattle will launch from A Baoa Qu, so
activate your multi-lock to catch them and a few gun turrets on the
asteroid's surface. Destroy a Gelgoog that will come out of a gap in
the rocks, and open the multi-lock windows to catch two more Gattle and
more gun turrets as you fly by. Kai Shiden will message you complaining
that he wanted to be the one to reach A Baoa Qu first. A Rick Dom will
enter from the right as a Musai come into view, so destroy the Rick Dom
with your beam rifle as you continue forward, and then use your Special
Attack to quickly take down the Musai. After passing the Musai a Zaku
II will exit a hangar, so destroy it and listen as a GM pilot marvels
at the Gundam's power. Open your multi-lock window to catch and destroy
three Gelgoogs that will fly in from the top of the screen. As you
continue forward you will come across another Musai that is outside the
space fortress. Use your multi-lock on the Musai two times to sink the
ship as two Rick Doms fly in the area from the bottom and right sides
of the screen. Destroy those two Rick Doms as you pass under the Musai,
and then destroy a Gelgoog that is chasing a GM down the right side of
the screen. A Zaku II will zoom quickly out of the nearest hangar, so
you may not be able to destroy it before it is gone, but open your
multi-lock window and prepare to fire on and destroy a Musai that is
launching from the hanger, as well as a Rick Dom that will try to fly
into the hangar the Musai is exiting. Continuing forward, several
mobile suits (four Zaku II and five Gelgoogs) will come out of the next
few hangars, so destroy them all and feel free to chuckle as one of the
poor pilots screams for his mommy as he dies. This segment of the
mission will now end.
Amuro will have officially landed on A Baoa Qu. There's just one big
problem... Char Aznable has found him. You will enter the Battle Sphere
and Char and his Zeong will be there soon. You will not be fighting the
Zeong alone though, as there will be several Rick Doms, Zaku II's, and
Gelgoogs that will attack you while you are trying to have a good clean
fight. The addition of other enemies can make fighting Char much
trickier so try to destroy the enemy units before you attack the Zeong.
Unlike you usually do when fighting a character and other enemy units
so not ignore Char when you destroy other enemies. Attack the Zeong in
close combat and when another enemy unit comes near you switch your
lock-on over to that enemy and destroy it with your beam rifle and then
switch your lock-on back and melee Char's Zeong some more. After eleven
enemy units have been destroyed they will not come anymore, so you are
free to defeat the Zeong without distractions. Now the Zeong's ranged
attacks are rather strong, but not too bad. But you must be damned sure
to watch out for the Zeong's Special Attack. The Zeong will launch its
two hands outwards and blast at you with its chest mega particle
cannons. Now, the mega particle cannons in the chest aren't what you
should watch out for, it is the blasts from the Zeong's hands, because
those things can damage you quite badly if they hit you, so be sure to
barrel roll out of the way. Now the best thing about the Zeong is that
it has absolutely no melee attacks, so if you get in close and start
attacking with your beam saber then the Zeong will be in a real tough
position as there isn't much it can do to retaliate. Once the Zeong has
lost all of its Health the fight will end. The Zeong will blow off the
Gundam's left arm before fleeing. Amuro will chase the Zeong and blast
the leg-less unit in the chest, destroying it. But not before Char
ejects the secret escape pod, the Zeong's head, which destroys the
Gundam's own head with a shot from its mega particle cannon before
escaping into the interior of A Baoa Qu.
With the Gundam wrecked beyond repair and the Zeong destroyed, Char
and Amuro are now forced to settle their grudges with a good old-
fashioned sword fight. Crazy sword fight starts now! Amuro will enter
the area, where Char is already waiting for him. Although zero gravity
sword fights may seem rather awkward at first, controlling Amuro is the
exact same as controlling a mobile suit, you just don't have fancy
reticules plastered all over the screen to show what you're locked onto
your target and such. Use the Triangle button to melee attack Char with
your fencing foil. The D-Pad or Control stick will move Amuro forward,
back, left, or right, and R1 ascends and R2 descends. The Cross (X)
Button will activate the vernier pack on Amuro's back, boosting you
forward. Quickly pressing the Cross (X) Button twice will still cause
you to do a barrel roll, and pressing L1 will lock you onto Char. Just
continue to beat the hell out of Char with your fencing foil. Amuro and
Char will argue a bunch while they whack one another and eventually
Sayla will enter the area and ask the two to stop fighting, but keep
attacking Char anyway. After you have hit Char enough he and Amuro will
be done bickering and the mission will end.

White Base TV Mode
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
AS SEEN ON TV! By getting all A and S-Ranks in White Base Mode you
can unlock the White Base TV Mode. Now when you start a New Game in
White Base Mode you will now have a choice of playing either Movie Mode
or TV mode. As opposed to the Movie Mode version of the White Base
missions, which adhere to the third Mobile Suit Gundam compilation
movie, "Encounters in Space," the TV Mode uses units that were seen in
the original Mobile Suit Gundam television series. Hayato Kobayashi
will pilot the RX-75 Guntank, and Sleggar Law and Sayla Mass will pilot
the G-Fighters just like in the series. The missions will still be
pretty much the same as they would be when you replay White Base Movie
Mode so I won't list the entire walkthrough for each mission. But there
will be a few changes, aside from the units, in a few of the missions
so I will only list the new and noteworthy things that can happen.
Stage 1:
--------
At the very end of the mission, if the RX-78-2 Gundam has at least
50% of its Health Gauge remaining after you destroy the MA-05 Bigro,
you will get a chance to fight the MA-04X Zakrello piloted by Dmitri.
The five minute time limit will be reset, so you will have a full five
minutes to destroy the Zakrello. If you don't destroy the Zakrello
before the five minutes run out you will fail the mission, so destroy
that mobile armor! The Zakrello's attack patterns are nearly identical
to the Bigro's, so just fight it as you would the Bigro.
Stage 2:
--------
There are no important changes in TV Mode Stage 2.
Stage 3:
--------
The movies Terror of Big Zam (B) and Sleggar's Attack (B) will play,
instead of the (A) versions of those movies.
Stage 4:
--------
There are no important changes in TV Mode Stage 4.
Stage 5:
--------
There are no important changes in TV Mode Stage 5.
Stage 6:
--------
The movie Lalah's Death (B) will play instead of the (A) version of
the movie.
Stage 7:
--------
There are no important changes in TV Mode Stage 7.
Stage 8:
--------
There are no important changes in TV Mode Stage 8.
\ /---------------------\ /
[=======================|Thoroughbred Missions|=======================]
/ \---------------------/ \
The story detailed in Thoroughbred Mode follows the actions of the
16th Autonomous Corps during the final month of the One Year War as
seen in the manga series Mobile Suit Gundam Side Story: Space, To the
End of a Flash. The SCVA-72 Pegasus class assault carrier Thoroughbred
was the flagship of the 16th Autonomous Corps. The Thoroughbred
launched from the Earth Federation headquarters of Jaburo, South
America not long after the departure of the White Base. The 16th
Autonomous Corps has been assigned on a reconnaissance mission, to keep
a close eye on the Zeon-controlled lunar city of Granada. This will
also serve to reinforce the rear of the Federation's main fleet as it
prepares to wage an all or nothing attack on Zeon's space fortresses.
Stage 1:
--------
In transit to the area between the Earth's moon and the space
fortress Solomon, the Thoroughbred has encountered an enemy patrol
fleet. Unwilling to give away their position, the captain decides it
would be best to destroy the enemy fleet before it is able to report
back to Granada. When the mission starts you will be traveling forward
in Route Tube mode. You are Ford Romfellow pilot of the RX-78-5 Gundam
Unit 5 armed with a Hyper Beam Rifle. The Thoroughbred will launch a
volley of beam interference missiles past you towards the enemy fleet,
and they will explode as you enter the Battle Sphere.
You will enter now enter the Battle Sphere and several hostile
missiles will fly towards you from the enemy fleet, so if you multi-
lock quickly you could probably destroy a few missiles for a couple
hundred quick points. The cute radio operator chick will ask Lieutenant
Luce Kassel to watch out for Ford, so Luce will offer to support you in
his RX-78-4 Gundam Unit 4 armed with a Hyper Beam Rifle. Take him if
you wish, as he can be useful as hell in what can be a difficult
mission, but he will take a lot of kills so you will not get as high as
score. There will be two enemy Musai battleships in the distance, and
they will be moving forward towards you. There will also be three new
model enemy mobile suits, MS-06FZ Zaku II FZ's armed with MMP-80
Machineguns, guarding the two Musai. Now, you must prevent the enemy
Musai from escaping, which means either destroying them, or disabling
their two engine blocks. The Musai on the left is the one you must deal
with first, as it will break formation and attempt to flee the area to
try and contact Granada. If the Musai should escape, which will happen
at one minute and forty-five seconds if the enemy ship is not destroyed
or disabled, you will fail the mission. So you must take out the Musai
on the left first. Now you can either destroy the Musai out right, or
destroy the Musai's two engines, which will stop the Musai in its
tracks allowing you to destroy its various components at your own
leisure. The Musai on the right is not much of a problem, as it will
not try to flee the area; instead it will just stop and sit in the
area. So you do not have to deal with that Musai until later, so after
you stop the left Musai from escaping go ahead and concentrate on
destroying enemy units. After taking out a few Zaku II FZ's more
enemies will enter the area, including an upgraded Dom, the MS-09R-2
Rick Dom II armed with Giant Bazookas (Rick Dom II). After you have
destroyed seventeen enemy mobile suits they will stop coming, so go
ahead and take care of those battleships. Once you have destroyed both
Musais you will return to the ship and the mission will end.
BUT BE FOREWARNED, be incredibly forewarned. DO NOT linger in this
mission for over five minutes. You will want to destroy the two Musais
before the mission timer passes 5:00:00 because the exact second the
five minute mark is passed you will be in for THE toughest fight in the
game, bar none. You will be attacked by a three-man team consisting of
one Rick Dom II and two Zaku II FZs. These three suits are THE toughest
units in the game! They can tear you apart quickly, and take tons and
tons of damage and still not be destroyed. If you called Luce in for
support at the beginning of the mission he will assist you in fighting
these three uber-pilots, but it's not like he'll do any better than you
against them. If you think you got what it takes, go ahead and give
this battle a try. It will be a rather humbling experience. But if you
want to actually beat this mission just destroy those two damn Musais
before it even gets close to the five minute mark!
Stage 2:
--------
On patrol between the moon and Solomon, the Thoroughbred notices an
enemy fleet en route to the asteroid space fortress. Having realized
that a large-scale Federation attack on Solomon is coming, the Zeon
have decided to send as much force as they can to Solomon to help in
the coming battle. The only Federation fleet in the area is the 16th
Autonomous Corps, and so they are given orders to attack the Zeon
forces before they can reach Solomon.
You will launch in the RX-78-5 Gundam Unit 5 armed with a Hyper Beam
Rifle. You will be in the Route Tube during the first part of this
mission, and two RX-77-2 Guncannons armed with Custom Beam rifles
(Guncannon) will be automatically supporting up. You will fly past the
Thoroughbred towards a Musai, so quickly try to destroy the Musai with
your Hyper Beam Rifle before those two Guncannons sink it first. After
you pass the now-destroyed Musai you will travel forwards a short ways.
Dodge the two missile barrages that will be heading your way and you
will soon enter the Battle Sphere.
There will already be three Musai battleships in this area when you
enter the Battle Sphere. One will fly forward until it reaches the
center of the area, where it will just sit still and fire its main
cannon and missiles from then on. The other two Musai in the area will
just fly in a circle around the perimeter of the area firing randomly
as well. After forty-five seconds have gone by Luce Kassel will offer
to support you in his RX-78-4 Gundam Unit 4 armed with a Hyper Beam
Rifle. Take your time to pick off the Musais various components before
destroying the ships themselves. After you have destroyed one of the
Musais you will get a message saying that the enemy have launched their
mobile suits, which are MS-06FZ Zaku II FZ armed with MMP-80
Machineguns and MS-09R-2 Rick Dom IIs with Giant Bazookas (Rick Dom
II). Two mobile suits will enter the area, so destroy them. After
awhile a few more mobile suits will come, but after you have destroyed
a total of six enemy mobile suits they will stop coming. Now destroy
the two remaining Musai in the area. After the two Musai are destroyed
two Pazock supply ships being escorted by a Musai will enter the area,
and two more Rick Dom II will launch. The two Pazocks and Musai will
speed forward through the area non-stop, but ignore the three ships for
now and take out the mobile suits. They will be mostly Rick Dom IIs but
a few Zaku II FZs will show up as well, but after you have destroyed a
total of ten enemy units they will stop coming. After you have
destroyed all the enemy mobile suits, go and destroy the two Pazock and
Musais before they are able to exit battlefield. If the three ships
should exit the range of the battle sphere then the Thoroughbred and
two Salamis will open up a barrage of covering fire, completely
obliterating the three ships and robbing you of all the points you
would get for destroying them yourself. So be sure to destroy the three
ships yourself! Either way they go, once the two Pazocks and single
Musai have all been destroyed the mission will end.
Stage 3:
--------
The Thoroughbred has detected another enemy fleet departing from
Granada, but this one is behaving strangely. The fleet appears to be
heading in the direction of A Baoa Qu, leading the captain to believe
that the Zeon have already begun to abandon space fortress Solomon. The
16th Autonomous Corps is ordered to destroy the fleet, but supplies are
stretched thin and they may not have the battle strength to defeat the
Zeon fleet. But Lieutenant Luce Kassel has a plan. He proposes they
attempt to use the Gundam Unit 4's prototype mega beam launcher. But
the mega beam launcher is very unstable, and could prove impossible or
dangerous to utilize. Despite the potential danger the crew of the
Thoroughbred decides Luce's plan is their best course of action.
You will launch in the RX-78-5 Gundam Unit 5 armed with a Hyper Beam
Rifle. You will be in Route Tube Mode traveling forward through a
debris field, and Luce Kassel will already be accompanying you in the
RX-78-4 Gundam Unit 4 with the mega beam launcher already prepared. As
you travel forward you can rack up a couple of quick points by blasting
chunks of debris and small rocks. As you approach your destination the
enemy fleet will notice you. Hey, surprise attacks don't work every
time. You will move forward and exit the debris field into a larger
clear area and enter the Battle Sphere.
Once you are in the Battle Sphere you are charged with the task of
protecting Luce's Gundam Unit 4. The Gundam Unit 4 will sit still, just
pointing the mega beam launcher in the direction of the enemy fleet
waiting for the massive weapon to power up, so Luce will be totally
defenseless, which is why it's up to you to defend him. The Gundam Unit
4's Health Gauge will be displayed on the left side of the screen, so
watch it because if the Gundam Unit 4 should lose all of its Health it
will be destroyed and you will fail the mission. Seconds after you
enter the area three enemy units will enter from the direction of the
Zeon fleet. The initial enemies consist of MS-09R-2 Rick Dom IIs armed
with Giant Bazookas (Rick Dom II) and MS-06FZ Zaku II FZs armed with
MMP-80 Machineguns. Enemies will come from all sides, so stick close to
Luce's Gundam Unit 4 to better protect him. Use your multi-lock ability
to blast the enemies as they come because they will usually enter the
area in tight formations, making them easy pickings for barrages of
multi-lock attacks. After you have destroyed fourteen enemy units a new
type of new enemy will appear, the MS-14A Gelgoog armed with Beam Rifle
(Gelgoog). You need to take out the Gelgoogs quickly, as their beam
rifles can beat up the Gundam Unit 4 very badly if they are left
unchecked. After you have destroyed a total of sixteen enemy units the
enemies will stop coming. Several seconds later this part of the
mission will end, and you will watch a movie scene as Luce fires the
mega beam rifle.
Disaster! Despite successfully firing the mega beam rifle, the
Gundam Unit 4's energy pack has overloaded and blown the hell up!
Despite dealing heavy damage to the Zeon fleet, they are able to launch
another wave of mobile suits and stage a major counterattack. You will
enter the Battle Sphere again where you must fight off the waves of
enemy mobile suits. Just like last time, the enemies will consist of
Rick Dom IIs, Zaku II FZs, and Gelgoogs in greater numbers. After forty
seconds have gone by since you entered this Battle Sphere a nameless
Federation pilot will offer to support you in a RX-77-2 Guncannon armed
with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon), so take him if you wish. Just
keep destroying enemy units as they come. Multi-locking is still useful
as heck because the enemies will enter the area in close formations.
This mission can end one of two ways, which will determine which
mission you will go to next. If you finish this mission with an A or S
Rank you will go to Stage 4 [WHAT IF EPISODE]. However, if you finish
the mission with a B Rank or lower you will go to the standard Stage 4.
Stage 4:
--------
(NOTE: You will play this stage if you completed Thoroughbred Mode
Stage 3 with a B Rank or lower.)
Following the loss of Lieutenant Luce Kassel and his Gundam Unit 4,
the beaten and battered Thoroughbred heads to the space fortress of
Solomon, which is now under Earth Federation control. The Thoroughbred
is repaired and re-supplied, and Ford Romfellow's Gundam Unit 5 is
upgraded. But before the Thoroughbred is able to leave port, news
returns that General Revil's main fleet has been wiped out by the
Zeon's Solar-Ray colony laser super weapon. Operation Star One looms in
the future as the Earth Federation prepares to attack Zeon's final
space fortress, A Baoa Qu. But the Thoroughbred receives new orders;
they are to escort the Chivvay of Zeon Prime Minister Darcia Bakharov
on its way to Granada to sign a peace treaty to end the war. However
several hard-line Zeon do not want this war to end in anything but
complete victory for the Principality, and they will do anything to
achieve this, including killing Prime Minister Bakharov.
You will launch from the Thoroughbred in Ford's tweaked RX-78-5[Bst]
Gundam Unit 5 Booster armed with a Hyper Beam Rifle and almost
immediately enter the Battle Sphere. You must defend the Thoroughbred
from enemy attacks, and if it should be destroyed you will fail the
mission, so keep a close eye on its Health Gauge. However, if the
Thoroughbred's Health should fall below 70% a no-name pilot will offer
to support you in an RX-77-2 Guncannon armed with a Custom Beam Rifle
(Guncannon). When the mission begins there will already be a few enemy
units in the Battle Sphere. There will be one MS-18E Kämpfer armed with
a Custom Shotgun, as well as two MS-06F-2 Zaku II F-2s armed with Zaku
Machineguns, and a single Musai slowly steaming forward. First things
first, you should tackle that Musai before it gets in close to the
Thoroughbred, where it can do major damage if left unchecked, so be
sure to destroy it before it even gets in close to the Thoroughbred.
After the Musai is destroyed go after the Kämpfer that will be
attacking you. The Kämpfer is a pretty tough opponent, so it will take
a little work with your beam saber to finish him off. Now concentrate
on the other annoying mobile suits that have been harassing the
Thoroughbred. After destroying the first wave of mobile suits,
different types will start to appear including MS-09R-2 Rick Dom IIs
armed with Giant Bazookas (Rick Dom II) and MS-14A Gelgoogs armed with
Beam Rifles (Gelgoog). After you have destroyed seven enemy mobile
suits you will get a message that more enemy units are entering the
area. A Musai with a HLV (Heavy-Lift Launch Vehicle) tucked between its
two engine blocks will come speeding into the Battle Sphere. The radio
operator believes that the Musai is using the HLV to boost the Musais
top speed to catch up to Prime Minister Bakharov, but the Captain
thinks it may be loaded with explosives and is on a kamikaze run to
destroy the Chivvay. Finish off the enemy mobile suits attacking the
Thoroughbred before going after the Musai. After you have destroyed a
total of fifteen enemy mobile suits the enemy units will stop coming,
so go and attack the Musai with the HLV. This HLV-lugging Musai is
pretty darned tough compared to a standard Musai. It can probably
absorb all three of the Gundam Unit 5 Booster's giant gatling Special
Attacks and still keep on trucking. You must destroy this Musai to end
the mission. If the Musai with the HLV should get past the Thoroughbred
and exit the Battle Sphere you will fail the mission; so destroy that
damn Musai and the mission will end!
Stage 5:
--------
Having rendezvoused with Prime Minister Darcia Bakharov's Chivvay,
the Thoroughbred escorts the Zeon ship to the lunar city of Granada to
take part in the signing of the peace treaty to end the war. However,
the Zeon still loyal to the Zabi dictatorship are not ready to give up
so easily, and an attack fleet waits on the dark side of the moon.
You will launch in the RX-78-5[Bst] Gundam Unit 5 Booster armed with
a Hyper Beam Rifle. You will start off in the Route Tube and fly
forward before making a left turn and flying around the Chivvay and
back towards the Thoroughbred. An MS-17 Galbaldy a armed with a Beam
Rifle (Gelgoog) will zoom across the screen as you head back, and you
will make another left turn when you reach the Thoroughbred before you
enter the Battle Sphere. There will be three Galbaldy a's in the area,
and they will be your only enemies for now. They aren't too tough
though, plus the Chivvay can not take any damage at this point in the
mission, so all you have to do is take out the three Galbaldy a's and
this part of the stage will end and you will watch a cutscene.
Ford will begin to feel a strange pressure and an odd mobile armor
will appear. The mission will begin again and you will be thrown back
into the Battle Sphere. There will already be the one MAN-03 Braw Bro
mobile armor in the area, as well as one MS-11 Act Zaku armed with a
Custom Beam Rifle (Act Zaku). You must guard the Chivvay from enemy
attacks, because if it is destroyed you will fail the mission. Keep an
eye on the Chivvay's Health Gauge, which is displayed on the left side
of the screen. Take out the two Act Zakus first, as they will go after
the Chivvay, and then go take care of the Braw Bro. The Braw Bro
specializes is making all-range attacks with its wire-guided mega
particle guns, so stay in close to the Newtype-use mobile armor to
throw a wrench in the works of its most powerful attacks. Just fly
right in front of the Braw Bro and either continuously slash at it with
your beam saber, and unload you giant gatling gun Special Attack
directly into its face to deal lots of fast damage. After one minute
has gone by that no-name Federation grunt will offer to support you in
his RX-77-2 Guncannon armed with a Custom Beam Rifle (Guncannon), so
take him if you want his help. Once the Braw Bro is destroyed several
more enemy mobile suits will enter the area and attack the Chivvay.
Continue to attack the Galbaldy a's and Act Zakus so they do not
destroy the Chivvay. This mission can actually end one of two ways.
There's the good way, and the "That sucks ass!" way. If you
successfully defend the Chivvay from the attacks of enemy units the
movie "A Cosmic Glow" will play. However, if at any point during the
mission your Gundam Unit 5 Booster should lose all of its Health the
mission will end with the movie "Price for Peace." If you want to
unlock both movies, you'll have to complete the mission both ways, so
after you beat the mission one way just go back to the Thoroughbred
mode main menu and select Continue to play this stage again and beat it
the other way.
Stage 4 [WHAT IF EPISODE]:
--------------------------
(NOTE: You will play this stage if you completed Thoroughbred Mode
Stage 3 with an A or S Rank.)
After the massive damage inflicted on the Gundam Unit 4 in their
last encounter the Thoroughbred heads to the space fortress Solomon,
now under Earth Federation Control, for repairs and resupply. Almost
miraculously, despite the incredibly heavy damage his unit sustained,
Lieutenant Luce Kassel survives with only minor injuries. After a few
days leave Luce is back and ready for action and the Thoroughbred has
had both its Gundams up-graded with supplemental boosters and the 16th
Autonomous Corps has been reassigned to join General Revil's main
fleet. However General Revil's fleet is destroyed by Zeon's Solar-Ray
colony laser before the Thoroughbred is able to depart from Solomon.
With Revil's fleet in ruins the Thoroughbred is re-reassigned to the
Second Fleet and they begin to move towards A Baoa Qu, however they
find remnants of the Zeon's Solomon fleet hiding in the shoal zone
around the space fortress.
After launching in the new and improved RX-78-5[Bst] Gundam Unit 5
Booster armed with a Hyper Beam Rifle you will fly around for about ten
seconds in the route Tube Mode you will spin around and face the
Thoroughbred and enter the Battle Sphere after a rather hefty load
time. You must protect the Thoroughbred from the being destroyed,
because if it is destroyed you will fail the mission, so pay attention
to its Health Gauge on the left side of the screen. Once you enter the
Battle Sphere three enemy mobile suits, all of them MS-09R Rick Doms
armed with Giant Bazookas, will immediately attack the Thoroughbred. If
at any point should the Thoroughbred's Health should drop below 60%
Luce Kassel will offer to come in for support in his RX-78-4[Bst]
Gundam Unit 4 Booster armed with a Hyper Beam Rifle. Just keep
destroying the Rick Doms as they come. If at any point during the
mission your Gundam Unit 5 Booster's Health should ever drop below 60%
than the Rick Doms will stop coming, instead being replaced by MS-06F-2
Zaku II F-2s armed with Zaku Machineguns. Because of this enemy
replacement when you get badly damaged it literally pays to stay
healthy, because the Rick Doms are worth more points. After you have
destroyed nine enemy units an enemy Musai will begin to move into the
area. You must destroy this Musai before it gets too close to the
Thoroughbred, because if it draws too near it will just park up front
and pump volley after volley of large missiles into your homeship,
which will quickly sink it. So the plan is to sink the damn Musai first
before it gets the chance to destroy the Thoroughbred. After the Musai
is destroyed go back to destroying enemy mobile suits. After you have
destroyed the Musai and a total of sixteen enemy mobile suits the
mission will end.
Stage 5 [WHAT IF EPISODE]:
--------------------------
Even though the Solar-Ray colony laser has destroyed one-third of
the Earth Federation Space Fleet, the attack on A Baoa Qu has only been
delayed, not prevented. The Thoroughbred has been called up to the
frontline to reinforce the Second Battalion in A Baoa Qu's hotly
contested N Field. As the two massive forces clash it soon appears that
this will be the final battle to end the war.
You will launch in the RX-78-5[Bst] Gundam Unit 5 Booster armed with
the Hyper Beam Rifle. You will travel forward a short way in the Route
Tube, and a few squads of Gattle will fly below you so if you hurry up
and multi-lock with your hyper beam rifle you may get a few hundred
points by destroying a Gattle or two. You will then enter the Battle
Sphere in front of the Thoroughbred.
In the Battle Sphere you must protect the Thoroughbred from enemy
attacks. If the Thoroughbred should be destroyed you will fail the
mission, so be sure to stick close to the Thoroughbred and keep an eye
on the ship's Health Gauge, which is displayed on the left side of the
screen. Should the Thoroughbred drop below 60% of its Health, Luce
Kassel will offer to support you in his RX-78-4[Bst] Gundam Unit 4
Booster armed with a Hyper Beam Rifle. There will already be three
enemy units in the area, as well as two Musai battleships far off in
the distance that will move in closer as the battle progresses. Initial
enemies will be MS-09R-2 Rick Dom IIs armed with Giant Bazookas (Rick
Dom II), and MS-06FZ Zaku II FZ armed with MMP-80 Machineguns. However
after you have destroyed the first wave of enemies you will have a few
MS-14A Gelgoogs with Beam Rifles (Gelgoog) enter the fray as well. Just
stick close to the Thoroughbred for awhile, but be sure to watch out
for those Musais. If those two Musais should get in close to the
Thoroughbred they will bombard it with missiles, which will do a lot of
damage, so be sure to take out those Musais before they get too close.
Keep destroying enemy units and once you have destroyed a total of
thirty-one enemy mobile suits and the two Musais you will enter the
next part of this mission.
You will watch a cutscene that will show a squadron of high mobility
units coming from the direction of A Baoa Qu. You will enter the Battle
Sphere again. Luce Kassel will immediately offer to support you in his
Gundam Unit 5 Booster if you should ever have below 75% of your Health
Gauge, so take him if you wish. You will still have to protect the
Thoroughbred, and if it should be destroyed you will fail the mission;
but on a positive note the battleship's Health Gauge has been
completely refilled. The high mobility enemies will soon enter the
area. They are an MA-05 Bigro mobile armor and two MS-14JG Gelgoog
Jägers armed with Beam Machineguns (Gelgoog Jäger). The Bigro and one
of the Gelgoog Jägers will attack you, which makes for a nice
diversion, but it is just a distraction from the second Gelgoog Jäger
which will head straight to the Thoroughbred! Ignore that Bigro and
Gelgoog Jäger that are attacking you and try to take out the second
Gelgoog Jäger first because it can quickly sink the Thoroughbred if
left alone. After one of the two Gelgoog Jägers has been destroyed
another squad of enemies will enter the area, with a second Bigro
mobile armor amongst them. The second Bigro will be escorted by a Zaku
II FZ and Rick Dom II, and these enemy mobile suits will keep coming
and coming infinitely in waves of two if you destroy them. Now there
are actually two ways this mission can end. If you destroy the two
Bigros the mission will end on a positive note, and the movie "Final
Battle at A Baoa Qu" will play. However, if the Gundam Unit 5 Booster
should lose all of its Health before you destroy the two Bigros the
mission will end on a much suckier note, and the movie "Lost" will
play. If you want to unlock both movies, you'll have to complete the
mission both ways, so after you beat the mission one way just go back
to the Thoroughbred mode main menu and select Continue to play this
stage again and beat it the other way.
\ /------------------\ /
[=========================|Ace Pilot Missions|========================]
/ \------------------/ \
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Char Aznable
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stage 1:
--------
Here are the humble begins of the illustrious military career of
Char Aznable, the Zeon ace known as the Red Comet. In this stage you
will recreate "Char's Five Leaps," which earned him one of the most
esteemed combat records in the beginning of the One Year War. You will
launch in the MS-06S(CA) Zaku II Char Aznable Custom armed with a Zaku
Bazooka. You have a three minute time limit to destroy five battleships
to complete the mission objective; otherwise you fail, so don't get
carried away.
In the beginning a few Salamis battleships will already be moving
into the operation area. After 16 seconds go by your ally will ask if
you want him to come in for support. He will be piloting a MS-05A Zaku
I with a Zaku Machinegun. He will be of no real use except stealing
your kills, and points earned from them, so since the mission is so
easy you really don't need to call him in.
After 18 seconds have gone by, the Federation will order all of the
Saberfish Corps. to head up front. You will now be assaulted by endless
legions of FF-S3 Saberfish and Public fighter crafts. Destroy them for
the points, but be sure to destroy the battleships as well. After you
destroy four Salamis battleships a Magellan will move into the
operation area. This will be your final target, so ignore it and
concentrate on destroying enemy fighters until you begin to run low on
time. When you get down to having only about 15 seconds left on the
clock, destroy the Magellan. After you destroy that fifth battleship,
the mission objective will be complete. But Char will still ruminate
that the Earth Federation is not powerful enough to defeat the Zabi
family for him, so he will have to take matters into his own hands.
Take this time while Char is scheming to destroy a few more Saberfish
attack fighters even though the time limit is up. A few seconds later,
after Char is done talking, the mission will end.
Stage 2:
--------
In this mission you must bust up Amuro's RX-78-2 Gundam, which is
armed with it's Beam Rifle (Gundam), while piloting Char's MS-06S(CA)
Zaku II Char Aznable Custom armed with a Zaku Bazooka. You have a two
minute time minute to sufficiently beat up the Gundam and complete this
mission. If you should run out of time you will burn up in the
atmosphere and die, which for all intents and purposes means you've
pretty much failed the mission. Besides that, the Gundam has a pretty
high defense -and Char's Zaku II has a pretty lousy offense- so it will
take a lot of hits to bring it down. The Gundam is also quite capable
of putting the hurt on you quite quickly, so this mission may prove to
be pretty difficult. You will automatically have two MS-06F Zaku II
with Zaku Machineguns as your allies when the mission begins. In the
beginning the Gundam will focus only on destroying one of the two Zaku
II's that are allied with you. Use this time to get in close to the
Gundam and start inflicting some damage. Be warned though, that once
one of your Zaku II allies goes down, Amuro will shift his attention to
fighting you and you alone. Try to stay out of ranged combat because
you just can't compete with the Gundam's firepower. Get close to the
Gundam and slash it with your heat hawk in melee combat and then barrel
roll and start your combo again. You can also try to use the Zaku II's
Special Attack while you are right next to the Gundam to do a lot of
quick damage, but chances are he will barrel roll away. After reducing
the Gundam to about 15% of its Health the mission will end.
Note that the only way to get an S-Rank on this mission is to
destroy the Gundam's shield, which will net you 1,000 points, and then
just don't die, which will get you another 35,000 points.
Stage 3:
--------
In this mission you will be in Texas Colony. You must again duel
Amuro Ray's RX-78-2 Gundam, but this time you will be using Char's own
MS-14S(CA) Gelgoog Char Aznable Custom armed with a Beam Rifle
(Gelgoog) to wreak havoc. The fundamentals are basically the same as
the last mission, only it is much easier now that you have a more
powerful mobile suit. Just continuously melee the Gundam, barrel roll
around to the other side of it, and then start another melee combo
attack. After the Gundam has only about 20% of its Health Gauge
remaining the mission will end.
Just like last mission, the only way you can get an S-Rank on this
mission is to destroy the Gundam's shield, which will get you 1,000
points, and then just don't die, which will get you another 35,000
points. This will get you the 36,000 points needed for that S-Rank.
Stage 4:
--------
In this mission you once again are piloting the MS-14S(CA) Gelgoog
Char Aznable Custom with a Beam Rifle (Gelgoog). Lalah Sune will also
be accompanying you in her MAN-08 Elmeth mobile armor. Your objective
is to once again beat up Amuro's RX-78-2 Gundam, but it has become more
difficult in this mission. Lalah won't be of much help, so you will
pretty much have to be the workhorse for the mission. Things aren't
made any easier when Sayla shows up in a FF-X7 Core Booster. You CAN
NOT destroy Sayla's Core Booster; if you do you will fail the mission.
This makes things challenging because you have two targets to lock-on
to; one of them you can't destroy, and the other will barrel roll so
frequently that you will usually end up locking onto the other. Because
of this it's just plain better to attack the Gundam in melee combat.
Use the Gelgoog's beam naginata to make short work of that pesky
Gundam. Once the Gundam has been reduced to having about 20% of its
health bar remaining the mission will end.
Just like the last two of Char's missions the only way for you to
earn an S-Rank is to destroy the Gundam's shield (1,000 points), and
not be destroyed and have to retry the mission (35,000 points). That's
the only way to get the 36,000 points needed for an S-Rank.
Stage 5:
--------
The Battle of A Baoa Qu has commenced, and Char has just received a
powerful new weapon. It is SO revenging time. Char will launch from A
Baoa Qu in the leg-less wonder, the MSN-02 Zeong to track down Amuro
and settle the score... and maybe wreak a little havoc on the Earth
Federation Fleet while he's at it.
You will head towards the oncoming Federation Fleet in the Zeong in
Route Tube mode, and you will be dumped into the Battle Sphere. You
will automatically have an allied unit, an MS-14A Gelgoog armed with a
Beam Rifle (Gelgoog), providing support for you. Already in the area
will be two Salamis battleships being guarded by some RB-79 Balls.
There will also be several Public fighters that will zoom though the
area and, after you destroy a few Balls, some RGM-79 GMs armed with
Beam Spray Guns will also start attacking you. Don't worry about the
enemy units so much, just concentrate on the battleships for now. The
Zeong's multi-lock attack to riddle those Salamis with beam fire before
they leave the area and escape. Once one Federation battleship is
destroyed, another will begin to move into the area and head towards A
Baoa Qu. There will be a total of twelve battleships that will come,
ten Salamis and two Magellan class cruisers, and after they are all
destroyed no more battleships will come. Once thirty seconds have gone
by Amuro Ray's RX-78-2 Gundam armed with the Beam Rifle (Gundam) will
enter the area and attack you. Amuro is much, much tougher this time
then any other time you've fought him. His defense is incredible, he
can take loads of damage... not to mention that the Zeong has no melee
attacks what-so-ever, so close combat is out of the question. Stay far
away from the Gundam, because this will come down to a long-range shoot
out. You need to end this duel fast because the longer Amuro is around
the more damage he can do to you, and you will lose precious time and
points being distracted from destroying battleships. Your best bet to
end this quickly is to try and hit Amuro with the Zeong's Special
Attack. The Zeong's Special Attack basically consists of the Zeong
launching its hands away from its body and blasting six shots from its
two torso based mega particle guns. The damage from the two torso mega
particle guns is negligible, what you really need to be concerned about
is whether the blasts from the Zeong's hands hit the Gundam, as they
can easily shave off 45% of its Health Bar if they do. It's best to use
the Zeong's Special Attack when you are far away from the Gundam,
because the Zeong's hands will not target something that is close to
you. While you are dueling Amuro's Gundam don't forget about the
battleships that are crossing through the area. They are worth a ton of
points, so you should destroy them all to get as high a score as
possible. As for the Gundam, once you reduce it to having just 40% of
its Health Gauge remaining, Amuro will retreat leaving you to destroy
any remaining battleships and enemies in the area. This segment of the
mission will end once a total of forty-five enemy units have been
destroyed by you and your Gelgoog ally, so be sure to destroy all of
the Federation's battleships before you commit to destroying the Balls
and GMs.
Once you complete that area you will move on, tracking down Amuro's
Gundam closer to A Baoa Qu. You will enter another battle against
Amuro's Gundam, who will be waiting for you in the area when you
arrive. The Gundam's Health Gauge and Shield Gauge will be completely
100% replenished, and your still beat the hell out of from last time,
so the odds are stacked against you. To further tip the odds out of
your favor a bunch of enemies will attack you as well. Sometimes it
will be mixed Balls and GMs, or sometimes the enemies will only be GMs,
but either way they're pretty pesky. But fear not, your courageous ally
in the Gelgoog will still be with you in this part of the mission too!
But, he won't do much to help... maybe destroy some GMs or something.
Whatever they may be, once you destroy a total of twenty-four enemy
units they will stop coming. If you're low on Health from the last part
of the mission it may be better to just target Amuro's Gundam and
ignore the other enemies. This fight will be tougher than last time,
Health issues aside, because you do not have nearly as much room to fly
around in this area so it will be harder to stay away from the Amuro's
Gundam. You should still try to nail Amuro's Gundam with the Zeong's
Special Attack to do a lot of damage, otherwise it is going to be a
very long and drawn out fight. And just be sure to stay the hell out of
close range. After Amuro's Gundam has lost all of its Health this part
of the mission will end. The Zeong will blow off the Gundam's left arm
before fleeing. Amuro will chase the Zeong and blast the leg-less unit
in the chest, destroying it. But not before Char ejects the secret
escape pod, the Zeong's head, which destroys the Gundam's own head with
a shot from its mega particle cannon before escaping into the interior
of A Baoa Qu.
With the Gundam wrecked beyond repair and the Zeong destroyed, Char
and Amuro are now forced to settle their grudges old school style.
Crazy sword fight starts now! Char will enter the area first and Amuro
will enter soon after though the same door you came through. Although
it may seem rather awkward at first, controlling Char is the exact same
as controlling a mobile suit, you just don't have fancy reticules to
show what you're locked onto and such. Just use the Triangle button to
melee attack Amuro. The D-Pad or Control stick will move Char forward,
back, left, or right, and R1 ascends and R2 descends. The Cross (X)
Button will activate the vernier pack on Char's back, boosting you
forward. Quickly pressing the Cross (X) Button twice will still cause
you to do a barrel roll, and pressing L1 will lock you onto Amuro. Just
continue to beat the hell out of Amuro with your sword. Amuro and Char
will argue a bunch while they slug it out and eventually Sayla will
show up and ask the two to stop fighting, but keep attacking Amuro
anyway. After you have hit Amuro enough he and Char will be done
bickering and the mission will end.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Black Tri-Stars
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stage 1:
--------
January 16th, Universal Century 0079, the Principality of Zeon
attacks Side 5 in what would become known as the Battle of Loum.
Despite massive losses the Earth Federation Space Fleet, commanded by
General Revil, were able to prevent the Zeon forces from dropping a
second colony onto Earth. Outraged by this setback Zeon pilots Gaia,
Ortega, and Mash enter the massive space battle looking to even the
score against Revil.
You, as Gaia, will launch in one of the MS-06S(TRI) Zaku II Black
Tri-Stars Custom armed with a Zaku Bazooka. Ortega and Mash will also
automatically be supporting you, both of them also in Zaku II Black
Tri-Star Customs with Zaku Machineguns, and they will work efficiently
at stealing all of your kills. There will be three Salamis battleships
in the area already, and Ortega and Mash will go off to wreck the ones
on the left. After a few seconds a few FF-S3 Saberfish attack fighters
and Public fighters will appear and attack you, but they are fairly
weak. Also, after destroying six Saberfish, South Burning will show up
in a Saberfish and attack you. He is much tougher and more powerful
than a normal Saberfish is, and will take several hits to bring down,
but he is still pretty easy. After South's Saberfish loses all of its
Health he will retreat from the battlefield. If you destroy ten enemy
units they will stop coming all together, so get to wrecking those
battleships, that is if Ortega and mash didn't do it already. After the
three initial Salamis are destroyed Gaia will exclaim that Revil's ship
is moving into the area. Two Salamis battleship and one Magellan class
cruiser will begin to move into the area. The Magellan is Revil's ship,
the Ananke, so be sure to destroy the two Salamis that are flanking it
before you attack the Magellan. Once Revil's Magellan has been reduced
to 20% of its Health you will be subjected to a cutscene.
Revil's Magellan will be crippled, but Revil is able to make it to
the Ananke's escape craft before the ship is destroyed. As the escape
ship launches you will re-enter the Battle Sphere. The escape craft
will head away from the Magellan, but don't chase directly after it.
Instead of chasing the escape craft as it heads left, go straight
forward towards the Salamis directly ahead of you. There will be two
Salamis in that direction, so pump two Special Attacks into the first
of the Salamis and it will go up in flames. Meanwhile, the escape pod
will now take a hard right turn and start heading in the same direction
that you are heading in, so you will be in a perfect position to
intercept it and bag your quarry. There will be a second Salamis
slightly ahead of you, so sink another Special Attack into it and
finish it by multi-locking on it with the Zaku Bazooka. Now to take
care of that escape craft. There are two ways to do it. The first way
to capture Revil's escape craft is to deal enough damage to it so that
the pod surrenders. The second way to stop the escape craft is to get
close enough to the shuttle so that you can lock-onto it and land your
Zaku II on the top of the shuttle. Now you cannot lock onto the escape
craft until you are very, very close to it, so if you opt to shoot at
it you will have to dumb fire your Zaku Bazooka towards the escape
craft and hope you hit. It will take a total of six shots from the Zaku
Bazooka to bring the escape craft to a halt. Either way you do it just
make sure that you capture Revil's escape pod before it escapes the
battlefield, because if Revil's escape craft does escape you will fail
the mission. So just capture General Revil's escape craft and the
mission will end.
Stage 2:
--------
With the war beginning to settle into a protracted stalemate the
Black Tri-Stars are invited to teach as instructors in a weeklong
course. The Black Tri-Stars instruct trainees in discipline and
advanced combat tactics, as well as increasing troop morale. However in
their last day of training the training unit actually stumbles across
an enemy attack unit.
You will be in an MS-05B(TRI) Zaku I Black Tri-Stars Custom armed
with a Zaku Bazooka. Sure it's a downgrade as compared to last time,
but deal with it. You will have two rookies in MS-06F Zaku II's armed
with Zaku Machineguns that you must guard. They will stay in place and
fire at any units that fly past, but that's about it. If either one of
them should die you will fail the mission, so be sure to watch their
Health Gauges on the left side of the screen. There will already be one
Salamis battleship in the area, and after a few seconds FF-S3 Saberfish
attack fighters will enter the area. There will also be a four-minute
time limit after which the mission will end successfully, so get to
wrecking stuff before time runs out some you get more points. Head down
and destroy the first Salamis and another will enter the area from
behind you. After the second Salamis is destroyed a Magellan will enter
the battlefield. Now, once you destroy the Magellan the mission will
end, so damage it heavily but do not destroy it. Just ignore the
Magellan for a while and destroy Saberfish until the four minute time
limit is almost up. When time starts to get slim, head over to the
Magellan and finish it off to end the mission.
Stage 3:
--------
With the war in space dragging out the standard Zaku II is becoming
severely outdated. The Black Tri-Stars are some of the first to receive
some of the newest models of mobile suits, the Zaku II High Mobility
Type. But rumors abound that the Federation has begun to produce its
own lines of mobile suits. The Black Tri-Stars are sent to scout Luna
II to find out what the Federation is up to.
You will enter the mission area in one of the MS-06R-1A(TRI) Zaku II
High Mobility Black Tri-Stars Custom armed with a Zaku Bazooka. Ortega
and Mash will also be in Zaku II High Mobility Type Black Tri-Stars
Customs but they are armed with Zaku Machineguns and they will scatter
as soon as the mission starts. There will be four FF-S3 Saberfish
flying towards you, so use your multi-lock to take them all out easily.
After twenty seconds go by Ortega will radio in asking if you want him
to support you. Take him if you wish, but he will pretty much just
steal your kills. Head over to the Salamis and Magellan battleships
that are taking positions behind the asteroids. Four more Saberfish
will take up formation and attack you, so use your multi-lock to take
them all out. Three more groups of four Saberfish will attack and after
they are destroyed the Federation will launch its mobile suit forces. A
squad of three RGM-79 GM with Beam Spray Guns will attack you. After
one minute and thirty seconds have gone by Ortega will offer to support
you. As cool as it would be to have all three Black Tri-Stars kicking
butt together it isn't worth the points loss. After you destroy twelve
GMs they will stop coming. Destroy the Salamis in the area and a
Magellan will begin to move into the battlefield. Destroy the Magellan
and the mission will end.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Johnny Ridden
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stage 1:
--------
It is January 13th, Universal Century 0079. The Battle of Loum has
just begun at Side 5. Young hotshot rookie officer Johnny Ridden is
about to launch, and he is intent on making a name for himself.
You will launch in a standard MS-06F Zaku II armed and dangerous
with a Zaku Bazooka. Your goal here is to take out the enemy
battleships. Now you must take out the Earth Federation Space Forces
battleships before they cross the area and reach the Zeon Fleet,
because if even one single battleship should make it across the area
you will fail the mission. Now it will take about three minutes for a
battleship to chug its way across the battlefield, but if you get too
distracted destroying fighters they can do it, so just be careful. In
the beginning of the mission there will already be three Salamis
battleships moving through the area. The battleships won't be alone
however; they are being guarded by FF-S3 Saberfish attack fighters and
Public bombers, which will keep coming for the duration of the mission.
After fifteen seconds have gone by your ally will ask if you would like
him to come in and support you. He is piloting an MS-05A Zaku I with a
Zaku Machinegun, but isn't all that useful. He will mainly just go
after the Saberfish and the Publics that will be buzzing around,
stealing your points for their kills. He won't touch the battleships,
though. If you keep destroying Saberfish and Publics then after around
your tenth kill Bernard Monsha will attack you in a Saberfish. Monsha
is far tougher than a standard Saberfish, but he is still not much of a
huge threat. He will use his Special Attack, so if you don't get out of
the way he can do a good bit of damage, but he is still a fairly easy
match, just don't get distracted and ignore the battleships. Once
Monsha's Saberfish loses all of its Health he will retreat from the
battlefield. After you have destroyed six Federation battleships -five
Salamis and one Magellan- the mission will end.
Stage 2:
--------
The war in has come to a stalemate. The Zeon, having a near monopoly
on control over space, have begun raiding suspected Earth Federation
supply depots to deny them a foothold in space. Johnny Ridden, who has
been rewarded for his exemplary combat achievements during the Battle
of Loum, has be selected to attack a suspected Federation holdout in an
industrial colony located at Side 2.
You will launch in the customized MS-06F(JR) Zaku II Johnny Ridden
Custom armed with a Zaku Bazooka. Now be aware that you have a three
minute time limit to complete this entire mission. If you should run
out of time you will fail the mission, so be quick about things. In the
very beginning of the mission there will be two Salamis battleships
heading away from the colony at Side 2, and towards your position. A
squadron of four FF-S3 Saberfish will launch and attack you, so use
your multi-lock to waste them all easily. Several more Saberfish will
attack, always in groups of four, but after you have taken out a total
of twenty-eight Saberfish then they will stop coming. After forty-five
seconds have gone since the start of the mission your ally, piloting an
MS-06F Zaku II with a Zaku Machinegun, will request to come in and
support you, so take him if you wish. After you have destroyed the two
Salamis that were in the area at the beginning of the mission, one
Columbus transport ship and its two Salamis escorts will enter the
battlefield from the west, while another two Salamis battleships will
come from the direction of the colony. Destroy the four Salamis and the
one Columbus transport before time runs out and you will complete the
mission successfully.
Stage 3:
--------
Due to his extraordinary skill Johnny Ridden has been promoted and
given command of the Primus Corps, and he personally has even been
supplied with a new model custom mobile suit. But in early December the
Federation has been stepping up its attacks in space, and seems to be
getting the upper hand. The Primus Corps is instructed to investigate
rumors of Federation scout ships operating around Texas colony in the
debris field around Side 5.
You will launch in the MS-06R-2 Zaku II Improved High Mobility Type
Johnny Ridden Custom armed with a Giant Bazooka. There will already be
one Salamis battleship directly ahead of you, and soon three FF-X7 Core
Fighters will launch. There will also already be a Columbus transport
ship hiding behind an asteroid with another Salamis behind it. Once you
damage the Salamis the captain of the ship will question if it's the
Red Comet, and Char's background game music "The Gallant Char" will
begin to play. This however, cause Johnny to become quite irate, and he
will exclaim that he's "the Crimson Lightning, damn it!" and the
background game music will return to normal. After you destroy three
Core Fighters you will come up against a larger challenge: the Earth
Federation Forces new model mobile suits... You will be attacked by a
squadron of two RGM-79 GM with Beam Spray Guns and one RB-79 Ball, or
sometimes just three GMs. After destroying a total of twelve enemy
units, they will just stop coming. Now just destroy the two Salamis and
single Columbus and the mission will end.
Stage 4:
--------
As the Earth Federation Forces make an all or nothing attack against
the Zeon asteroid space fortress of Solomon some of Zeon's top aces are
off on a field trip. Johnny Ridden has been transferred to the Chimera
Corps, which has been assigned to field test the Zeon's new prototype
mobile suit, the Gelgoog, in the Corregidor Shoal Zone.
You will launch in the MS-14B(JR) Gelgoog High Mobility Type Johnny
Ridden custom armed with a Beam Rifle (Gelgoog). Your first objective
is to test the Gelgoog's speed, accuracy, and firepower. You do this by
blasting the crap out meteoroids equipped with thruster units that will
fly around the mission area, or marked free-floating meteors. You have
a two minute time limit for this part of the mission. You must destroy
a total of ten flyin' space rocks before this part of the mission will
end. After destroying all ten meteors and meteoroids you will be
informed that you must now participate in a mock battle.
You will do a fly-by over the Chimera Corps Musai and meet up with
the suits you will face in the mock battle. You will fight three MS-09R
Rick Doms armed with Giant Bazookas. You will enter the Battle Sphere
in the middle of the debris field and the two minute time limit will be
reset. You must defeat all three Rick Doms before the two minutes run
out or you will fail the mission. The first thing the three Rick Doms
will do is get in a straight line and try to perform a pseudo-Jet
Stream Attack on you. Johnny Ridden will mock the three for trying to
intimidate the Black Tri-Stars. Now it's on! The best way to fight
these guys is probably melee combat, but this allows a chance for the
other two to get in close while you are fighting the third, so you may
end up with a heat sword in your back if you aren't careful. Luckily
since this is a mock battle, you can take tons of damage, but so can
your opponents. You should use your Special Attack as often as
possible, because that can easily shave off about 30% of the Rick Dom's
Health Gauge. Once any of the Rick Doms health Gauge get down to 10%
they will retreat back to the Musai, leaving the others to fight you,
so it is best to concentrate on one Rick Dom and whittle it down to
make things easier. Defeat all three of the Rick Doms before the two
minute time limit runs out and the mission will end in success.
Stage 5:
--------
The Chimera Corps, having completely missed the Battle of Solomon
while playing with their new Gelgoogs, has now begun to chug back to
aid the Zeon in what seems to be the last ditch battle to end the war.
The Chimera Corps deploys in A Baoa Qu's N Field, where it seems the
enemy resistance is at its strongest. The last and greatest battle of
the One Year War has begun.
You will launch from the Chimera Corps Zanzibar in the MS-14B(JR)
Gelgoog High Mobility Type Johnny Ridden Custom armed with a Beam Rifle
(Gelgoog). You will fly past a few Musai into the battlefield of A Baoa
Qu. Your mission is to stop the Earth Federation Force's battleships
from crossing the Zeon's defensive line and getting to A Baoa Qu. If
six Federation battleships should escape then you will fail the
mission, so don't goof off too much. There will already be two Salamis
class battleships moving through the area when the mission begins. The
two Salamis are being escorted by four RB-79 Balls, which can easily be
taken out with a multi-lock attack. Enemy units will consist mostly of
RB-79 Balls and RGM-79GS GM Command armed with Beam Guns. Also, a few
RGM-79 GMs armed with Beam Spray Guns and RGM-79SP GM Sniper II's armed
with Sniper Rifles will appear early on in the mission, though in
limited numbers. A few Public space bombers will also do fly-throughs
on their way to the space fortress A Baoa Qu, but they are just
independent and will not attack. Try not to let yourself get too
distracted by enemy units and letting the battleships escape.
If at any point during the mission your Health Gauge should fall
below 50% than your support will radio in demanding to let him assist
you. You support is in a standard MS-14A Gelgoog armed with a Beam
Rifle (Gelgoog). He will mainly concentrate on taking out enemy units,
so it is up to you to stop the Federation battleships.
After you destroy about ten enemy units Phillip Hughes will show up
in a GM Command. His unit is much tougher than a normal GM Command, and
will take dozens of hits to bring down. It is far better to attack
Hughes in close combat because not only will it be faster, but also
because Phillip can do a good deal of damage to you if you try to slug
it out in a gun fight. After Philip's Health Gauge is depleted his GM
Command will be destroyed.
Just keep destroying the Earth Federation Forces battleships as they
come. After you have destroyed your twelfth battleship the mission will
end. (NOTE: Johnny Ridden's end movie incorrectly states he destroyed
185 enemy units during the Battle of A Baoa Qu. One-hundred and eighty-
five is actually Ridden's kill count for the entire One Year War, not
the Battle of A Baoa Qu.)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Shin Matsunaga
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stage 1:
--------
Your unit will be a MS-06F Zaku II armed with a Zaku Machinegun.
Your mission is to destroy the enemy cruisers as they come forward. As
the mission starts there will already be one Salamis to the left. The
main enemies you will be up against will be FF-S3 Saberfish attack
fighters. Several Public fighters will also start to appear later. The
Saberfish are pretty weak; you should be able to destroy them with two
bursts of machinegun fire. Destroy the battleships and the fighter jets
as you go.
After about 42 seconds in the mission Dozle Zabi's Musai will arrive
on the battlefield. You will now have a secondary objective of
protecting the Musai from being destroyed. If Dozle's Musai is
destroyed the mission is failed! The Musai's Health Gauge will be on
the left side of the screen, so pay attention to it. The battleships
will be the ones to do the most damage, because if you allow them to
they will park right in front of Dozle's Musai and blast it with
missiles. Do not allow the Federation battleships to get this close,
because they can quickly sink Dozle's Musai if they do.
After 1:00 your ally will radio in asking if you want support. He is
a generic nameless schmoe in a MS-05A Zaku I with a Zaku Machinegun.
Call him in if you wish, but I don't recommend it; he will pretty much
just steal your kills.
If you keep destroying Saberfish and Public fighters, then
eventually Yuu Kajima will show up in a Saberfish to fight you. His
Saberfish is much tougher than a standard one is. He is capable of
taking much, much more damage than a standard enemy unit, and he is
much more skilled, but he is still fairly easy to defeat. Just don't
get so carried away fighting Yuu that you forget about defending
Dozle's Musai. After Yuu's Saberfish has lost all of its Health, Yuu
will flee the battlefield.
To end the mission at any time just destroy a total of five of the
Federation's Salamis and Magellan battleships. After that Dozle will
announce that the Federation Forces have started their retreat and the
mission will end.
Stage 2:
--------
You have the honor of escorting his excellency, Dozle Zabi, on his
battlefield inspection during a skirmish with Federation Forces at Luna
II. Dozle Zabi will be piloting his MS-06F(DZ) Zaku II Dozle Zabi
Custom armed with a Zaku Machinegun. You must keep Dozle alive until
the end of the mission, because if Dozle's Custom Zaku II should be
destroyed you will fail the mission. Fear not though because Dozle can
pretty much handle his own, so he really won't need much guarding. When
the mission begins you will be piloting the MS-06F(SM) Zaku II Shin
Matsunaga Custom armed with a Zaku Machinegun. When you start the
mission you and Dozle will be traveling through the Route Tube to the
battlefield. When you arrive at your destination you will enter the
Battle Sphere, where there will already be one Salamis battleship and
two FF-S3 Saberfish attack fighters waiting for you. The Salamis will
turn to face in Dozle's direction and open fire while Dozle goes off to
chase Saberfish, leaving the battleships to you. As you destroy a few
Saberfish, a few Public fighters will attack you as well, but after you
and Dozle destroy twenty enemy fighters they will stop coming all
together. Destroy the first Salamis and a second Salamis battleship
will begin to move into the area. And of course after the second
Salamis is obliterated a third Salamis battleship will move into the
area to attack you. Destroy that third Salamis and after a few seconds
Shin will enter Route Tube Mode and begin to move to another section of
the battlefield.
When you arrive in the next section there will already be one
Salamis battleship slightly behind you, down and to your left, and one
Magellan battleship right smack dab in front of you. After a few
seconds a few more squadrons of Saberfish and Public will begin to
attack you, but if you destroy seventeen of them then they will stop
coming. Just destroy the two battleships in the area and the mission
will end in success.
Stage 3:
--------
You will get to pilot the MS-06R-1 Zaku II High Mobility Type Zaku
II Shin Matsunaga Custom armed with a Zaku Machinegun for this mission.
When the mission begins there will already be three Salamis battleships
moving into the area. There will also be a total of twenty FF-S3
Saberfish attack fighters flying throughout the area, which will attack
in groups of three at a time. Also, during the entire mission two
groups of three Public fighters will fly across the mission area and
head towards Solomon. One group of Publics will come from the left and
the other group from the right. Strangely, it is the same Publics that
do each fly-by, so if you damage one of them it will remain damaged, or
if you destroy one it will not be replaced.
If at any time your Health Gauge drops below 50% your ally will
radio you asking if you need any assistance. Your ally is piloting a
MS-06F Zaku II with a Zaku Machinegun. I recommend not taking him, as
he will pretty much just steal your kills.
Fly over to the Salamis cruisers, and be sure to boost out of the
way when they fire their large homing missiles. After you destroy the
three Salamis the Federation commander will announce that they are
launching their mobile suit fleet. The area will now be swarmed by
groups of two RGM-79 GMs packing Beam Spray Guns and one Saberfish
fighter. Also, another Salamis and a Magellan battleship will move into
the area. There are a total of seven units of two GMs and a Saberfish
and after they are all destroyed then the enemy units will just stop
coming. Destroy the Magellan and the final Salamis to end the mission.
Stage 4 [WHAT IF EPISODE]:
--------------------------
NOTE: This mission is a "What If Episode," meaning to say that Shin
Matsunaga never really was at the Battle of Solomon. He was away on
personal business when the Federation launched their attack on the
asteroid base, but this mission explores what it may have been like had
Shin not missed the battle.
You will be piloting Shin's MS-06R-1(SM) Zaku II High Mobility Type
Shin Matsunaga Custom armed with a Zaku Machinegun for this mission.
You will launch out of a hanger in the side of Solomon. There will be a
Musai attempting to launch from Solomon. You must guard the Musai, and
if it is destroyed you will fail the mission. At first the main enemies
will be 24 RGM-79 GM armed with Beam Spray Guns, that come three at a
time, and after all of the GMs are destroyed there will be infinite
waves of RB-79 Balls, two at a time. There will be five Salamis
cruisers that will come one at a time. Be sure to destroy the Salamis
before they get near Solomon, because they can cause severe damage if
they get in close to the Musai. After 1 minute goes by your support
will radio in asking if you want assistance. He will only target enemy
units, so you can call him in if you wish to keep those pesky GMs and
Balls away from you and the Musai while you destroy the battleships.
Your ally will be piloting an MS-06R-1 Zaku II High Mobility Type with
a Zaku Machinegun.
Once you destroy five Salamis cruisers, Shin will notice that the
Big Zam has launched. Shin will go and follow Dozle's Big Zam away from
Solomon to the front lines. When you re-enter the Battle Sphere Dozle
will head towards the Federation fleet. There will be one incredibly
durable Salamis moving into the area, and two GMs will attack him. Stay
away from the Big Zam. Just move backwards, away from the edge of the
combat area where the Big Zam will be. After a couple of seconds Dozle
will fire the Big Zam's mega particle cannon, destroying the Salamis
and the all of the Federation ships in the background. KA-BLOOEY!!!
After a few more seconds, Amuro Ray in the RX-78-2 Gundam armed with
the Beam Rifle (Gundam) and Sleggar Law in a FF-X7[Bst] Core Booster
will arrive. After a few seconds Sleggar will be killed when he crashes
into the Big Zam, disabling its I-Field. Amuro will get angry and
attack the Big Zam ferociously, and when the Big-Zam has lost about 40%
of its Health it will be destroyed. Watch the hell out, because with
the Big Zam gone now Amuro will be gunning for you. Let the Gundam come
towards you, because if you get caught on the edge of the combat area
the Gundam can tear you apart. The Gundam can deal severe damage to
you, and it doesn't help that there will still be GMs in the area, but
concentrate all of your efforts on defeating the Gundam. Do not fight
the Gundam at long-range; use close combat. Slash the Gundam with a
three-hit combo from your heat hawk, then barrel roll and do it again.
After the Gundam looses 50% of it's Health Bar, Amuro will retreat.
Just destroy twenty more enemy units and the mission will end.
Stage 5 [WHAT IF EPISODE]:
--------------------------
NOTE: This mission is a "What If Episode," meaning to say that Shin
Matsunaga never really was at the Battle of A Baoa Qu. He was still
away during the Federation's second daring offensive, but this mission
explores what it may have been like had Shin not missed the battle.
You get to pilot the MS-14JG/SM Gelgoog Jäger Shin Matsunaga Custom
armed with a Beam Machinegun (Gelgoog Jäger). The mobile suit is quite
nice, but the beam machinegun is a little on the under-powered side and
the shots have a VERY wide spread between them, and the unit has a
rather slow beam saber swing. When you begin the mission there will be
two Salamis and one Magellan space battleships in the area already.
There will be two RB-79 Balls and one RGM-79GS GM Command armed with a
Beam Gun guarding the battleships. Go wreak some havoc on them. Your
main enemies in the beginning will be several Balls and GM Commands,
but you may see a RGM-79SP GM Sniper II armed with a Sniper Rifle early
on as well.
After 33 seconds pass by, Johnny Ridden the "Crimson Lightning,"
will arrive on the battlefield in his MS-14B(JR) High Mobility Gelgoog
and help you kick a little Federation butt. Johnny Ridden will stay and
help for exactly one minute, so after 1 minute and 33 seconds in the
mission, Johnny Ridden will leave the area just as suddenly as he came.
Continue to destroy enemy units. Towards the end of the mission you
will begin to see several more GM Sniper II's. The GM Sniper II's
Sniper Rifles are simply vicious. You'll be hearing the sound of the
bullets hitting you in your nightmares, so be sure to take out the
Sniper II's as soon as possible in close range combat. After all of the
enemy units and the three enemy battleships are destroyed one of two
things will happen. If you have less than 50% of your Health Gauge
remaining, the mission will end soon. If you hit the lock-on button a
few times before the mission ends, you may be able to catch a momentary
glimpse of the FA-78-1 Gundam Full Armor Type as it zips across the
battlefield.
However, if you have more than 50% of your Health Gauge remaining
you will get to fight the FA-78-1 Gundam Full Armor Type. The Gundam
Full Armor Type is tough as nails. It is very heavily armored, but it
is woefully slow so you can pretty much fly rings around it. But, it
isn't exactly a one on one match, either, as there will be infinite
waves of RB-79 Balls pestering you during the fight. You also have a
five minute time limit to destroy the Gundam Full Armor Type or you
fail the mission. Try to ignore the Balls and just engage the Gundam
Full Armor Type in close combat. Do not try to fight the Gundam Full
Armor Type in ranged combat; it's got you WAY outgunned. Just slash the
Gundam Full Armor Type three times with your beam saber, and then
barrel roll around to the other side of the Gundam Full Armor Type and
slash three times again. With Shin's Gelgoog Jäger's extensive Thrust
Gauge you should be able to keep this up for quite a while. After the
Gundam Full Armor Type is destroyed the mission will end.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yuu Kajima
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stage 1:
--------
Yuu Kajima, the Earth Federation ace pilot known as the "Blue Death"
for his exploits in the GM Blue Destiny Unit 1, is determined to put an
end to the existence of the despicable EXAM System. The EXAM System was
piloting system that utilizes the trapped soul of a young Newtype girl
named Marion Welch to give a mobile suit the ability to level the
playing field against Newtype pilots. However, Zeon ace pilot Nimbus
"The Paladin of Zeon" Schterzen -who claims to be the chosen pilot of
the EXAM System- has killed the creator of the EXAM System, Chlust
Moses, and stolen the second unit equipped with the EXAM System, the
Gundam Blue Destiny Unit 2. Yuu, determined to destroy the EXAM System
once and for all and free Marion's tortured soul, is given the Gundam
Blue Destiny Unit 3 to track down the Gundam Blue Destiny Unit 2 and
destroy it.
Yuu will be piloting the Gundam Blue Destiny Unit 3 armed with the
Beam Rifle (Blue Destiny 3) for this mission. Yuu and his team have
tracked down Nimbus to a former Zeon research colony. Yuu will move in
to investigate and be attacked by Zeon forces. You will have an allied
transport ship, being piloted by pink-haired babe Maureen Kitamura that
you MUST guard. If the transport ship is destroyed you will fail the
mission! You do have back up though. Also guarding the ship in RB-79
Balls will be Yuu's two friends Philip Hughes and Summona Fulis. But
seriously... They're in frikkin' Balls, so you're going to have to pull
most of the weight, unless you want to fail that is. Be sure to stick
close to the transport ship (if you ever loose sight of it there will
be a green arrow pointing in the direction of the transport ship).
One of the immediate threats to the transport ship will be a defense
satellite emplacement hidden behind an asteroid near the beginning of
the mission. It will be behind you when the mission starts, so turn
completely around to see it. This defense satellite can tear through
much of the transports Health Gauge with its missile and beam barrages,
so find it and destroy it immediately. Just destroy the units that come
after the transport ship. The enemy units consist mostly of MS-06F-2
Zaku II F-2 armed with Zaku Machineguns, as well MS-09R Rick Doms armed
with Giant Bazookas, and two of those defense satellite emplacements.
The transport ship will pass the second defense satellite, which is
hidden behind another asteroid, after about one minute and fifteen
seconds in the mission, so be sure to destroy it quickly.
After one minute and thirty-five seconds the transport ship will
leave the mission area, so it is pretty much safe. Phillip Hughes will
radio in asking if you want him to support you now that the transport
ship is safe. Take him if you want. Just continue to destroy the Zaku
II F-2's and Rick Doms as they come. After you have destroyed a total
of twenty enemy units Maureen will announce that something is coming
from the direction of Side 5 and the mission will end.
Stage 2:
--------
In reaction to the presence of the Gundam Blue Destiny Unit 2, Yuu's
Gundam Blue Destiny Unit 3 will flip out. The EXAM system will
activate, and you will have unlimited use of the Thrust Gauge, which
means you can pretty much barrel roll and boost all you want. Of course
the same will happen to Nimbus' Blue Destiny 2, so you will be evenly
matched.
The mission will start with the arrival of the Blue Destiny Unit 2.
Once again you are in the Gundam Blue Destiny Unit 3 armed with the
Beam Rifle (Blue Destiny 3). Your main enemy, the Gundam Blue Destiny
Unit 2 is armed with the Beam Rifle (Blue Destiny 2). There will also
be two MS-09R Rick Doms with Giant Bazookas in the area at the start of
the mission, so be sure to waste those two before you tackle the Blue
Destiny 2. Don't bother engaging in ranged combat with the Blue Destiny
2. Since the Blue Destiny 2's EXAM system is activated as well it tends
to avoid pretty much anything you can throw at it. Instead, engage the
Blue Destiny 2 in close combat. Give it a good and savage beam saber
whipping, and after a three-hit combo, barrel roll around to the Blue
Destiny 2's other side and start slashing at it again. You've got
infinite thrust, so abuse it! Be sure to destroy the Blue Destiny 2'
shield for the extra points. When the Blue Destiny Unit 2 looses all of
its Health the mission will end.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Kou Uraki
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stage 1:
--------
This is the story of Kou Uraki, the Federation's rookie test pilot
who is often referred to as the "Unknown Ace." After pursuing former
Zeon ace pilot Anavel Gato and the stolen RX-78GPO2A Gundam Physalis
into space, the Albion lands in the lunar city of Van Braun to receive
repairs and supplies from Anaheim Electronics. After landing, Kou soon
goes AWOL and ends up at a junk shop, where he helps a one-armed man
repair an old Zeon mobile armor. When Kou returns to the Albion he
learns that the old Zeon mobile armor is to be enlisted into the Delaz
Fleet and it has challenged the Gundam to a duel... and worse yet it is
being piloted by the man who Kou helped repair it.
This first mission details the first engagement of Kou Uraki using
the upgraded RX-78GPO1Fb Gundam Zephyranthes Full Vernian armed with
the Beam Rifle (GP Series). You will be up against the MA-06 Val Varo
mobile armor piloted by Kelly Layzner. The Val Varo is the only enemy
unit in this mission, so you don't have too much to worry about,
although the Val Varo is a pretty hefty challenge. The Val Varo will
mainly fly back and forth, shooting at you when it turns around to face
you. Fire at it when the Val Varo is heading away from you, and then
wait until it starts to turn around. When it turns around and faces you
it will launch a shot from its large mega particle cannon and several
missiles at you. Shoot at it as it comes towards you, but barrel roll
out of the way of its beam fire and missiles, and when it passes you up
either try to attack it with your beam saber or shoot it in the back as
it heads away from you. Don't stay in front of the Val Varo when it is
heading straight towards you because it may attack you with its melee
attack, and those big ol' claw pinchers can damage you pretty badly.
Use your Special Attack when the Val Varo is heading towards you and
you will knock off pretty substantial chunks of its Health Gauge. Just
keep that up until the Val Varo only has 10% of its Health remaining
and the mission will end in success. Note that the only way to get an
S-Rank on this mission is to not die and continue so you get the 35,000
points.
Stage 2:
--------
NOTE: This battle, known as the Runga Sea Battle, does not appear in
the Gundam 0083 OAV, but is instead based on the encounter in the
Gundam 0083 CD Drama and novel.
After departing from Von Braun, the Albion begins to make its way to
the Solomon Sea, the area surrounding the former Zeon asteroid base of
Solomon, which was renamed Konpei Island after the end of the One Year
War. On their way to Konpei Island the Albion encounters a hostile
Delaz Fleet supply unit. The Albion comes under fire and a lucky shot
grazes the Albion's bridge and disables the mobile suit launch deck.
The Zeon remnants launch a unit of MS-21C Dra-C to attack the crippled
Albion, and Kou Uraki makes an emergency take-off from the Albion's
landing gate to stave off the attacking enemy units.
You are once again in the RX-78GPO1Fb Gundam Zephyranthes Full
Vernian, but due to the problems with the launch deck you are limited
to only being able to use your beam saber and head vulcans as weapons.
The only enemies you have to worry about at the moment are the Dra-C's.
You must defend the Albion from the Dra-C squad attacks, because they
can chew up the Albion pretty effectively. The Dra-C will come in units
of three at a time, so boost towards them and slash them with the beam
saber.
After fifteen Dra-C's have been destroyed a cutscene will start and
the Chivvay will start advancing on the Albion. However, the Albion has
gotten its Core Fighter catapult deck working and uses it to send the
prototype beam rifle to the Gundam Zephyranthes Full Vernian. The
cutscene will end and the Chivvay will be heading straight towards the
Albion. Now, you only have a single shot with the prototype beam rifle
so DO NOT WASTE IT! The Chivvay is on a kamikaze run on the Albion, so
do not waste time or the Albion will be destroyed and you will fail the
mission. Just fly towards the Chivvay and when you have a clear shot,
blast the Chivvay with the prototype beam rifle. If you successfully
hit the Chivvay the mission will end in success.
Stage 3:
--------
Continuing on the way to Konpei Island, the Albion tracks the
movements of the Federation Forces newest battleship, the Birmingham.
The Birmingham comes into contact with the Cima Fleet, commanded by
Cima Garahau. The Albion, seeing the Birmingham surrounded by enemy
forces, deploys their mobile suit forces to defend the ship from the
perceived threat.
You will launch in the RX-78GPO1Fb Gundam Zephyranthes Full Vernian
armed with your Beam Rifle (GP Project). When the mission begins you be
in Route Tube heading towards the Birmingham. You will have Chuck Keith
in a RGC-83 GM Cannon II armed with a GM Rifle, and South Burning in
the RGM-79N GM Custom armed with a GM Rifle as allies. When the
Birmingham is discovered to be rendezvousing with enemy forces it will
begin to retreat, and it will partially destroy one of the pink Cima
Fleet Musais as it makes it escape. (You can re-destroy the Musai the
Birmingham destroyed for a quick 6,000 points! NICE!) Once you exit
Route Tube mode and enter the Battle Sphere, you and your allies will
be attacked by several MS-14F Gelgoog Marines armed with MMP-80
Machineguns. They will attack you in groups of three, but South Burning
will be helping you out so you shouldn't have much trouble.
After you destroy a total of ten Gelgoog Marines you will enter a
cutscene which will show another squad of Gelgoog Marines launching
along with Cima Garahau in her MS-14Fs Gelgoog Marine Commander Cima
Garahau Custom armed with a Beam Machinegun (Gelgoog Marine CMDR). You
will enter combat against her and her squad, which are tougher than the
last batch of Gelgoog Marines. You have a two minute time limit to
defeat Cima Garahau's Gelgoog Marine Commander. If the time limit
should run out Cima will retreat and the mission will end successfully,
so try and defeat her and her troops for a higher score. After five
seconds go by since the start of this new battle sphere section, Chuck
Keith will radio in asking if you want support, so take him if you
wish. South Burning's GM Custom will already be in the area, but he
will be hiding behind a piece of debris investigating some enemy data.
Cima Garahau will mostly attack South's GM Custom until it's in
critical condition (when it begins to spark), and then she will start
to attack you. There will be a total of seven standard Gelgoog Marines
that will accompany Cima, but they will come one or two at a time.
Destroy them first, and then go to work on Cima's Gelgoog Marine
Commander. Try to keep Cima's Gelgoog Marine Commander in close combat
and just keep attacking it and blast it with your Special Attack. After
it has been reduced to 5% of its Health, or if you run out of time,
Cima will retreat from the battlefield and the mission will end in
success.
Stage 4:
--------
Having finally arrived at Konpei Island for the Earth Federation's
naval review, the Albion sets up on the outskirts on patrol for the
stolen RX-78GPO2A Gundam Physalis and other Delaz Fleet forces. You
will launch in the RX-78GPO1Fb Gundam Zephyranthes Full Vernian armed
with the Beam Rifle (GP Series). Your enemies will consist of a
constant supply of MS-09R-2 Rick Dom II's armed with Giant Bazooka
(Rick Dom II), and MS-21C Dra-C. After fifteen seconds have gone by
Chuck Keith, in the RGC-83 GM Cannon II armed with a GM Rifle, will
radio in asking if you want him to back you up. Take him if you feel
like it, and if you can tolerate him stealing your kills. After you
have destroyed a total of nineteen enemy units you will receive a radio
call telling you that Gato has been spotted at point S-0 and that you
should head over immediately to intercept him. You will have about
twenty seconds to continue fighting while they talk, so continue to
destroy as many enemy units as you can.
After all the chatting is over you will enter a cutscene where Kou
will race towards Konpei Island... but it is in vain. Kou watches as
Anavel Gato uses the RX-78GPO2A to nuke the Earth Federation naval
review. Kou will now hunt Gato down and challenge him to a showdown.
It's you versus Gato, and its going to be rough. Even though the Gundam
Physalis only has its beam saber and head vulcans as weapons it is
still a pretty damn tough opponent! Try to engage the Gundam Physalis
in close combat and occasionally try to unload a Special Attack on the
monstrous mobile suit. Its defense is quite high and it has a very
tough shield, so it will probably prove to be a hell of a knock-down
drag-out fight. After the Gundam Physalis has been reduced to only
having 1% of its Health remaining the mission will end successfully.
Stage 5:
--------
After their failure to prevent the nuclear attack on the Earth
Federation naval review, the Albion learns of Operation Stardust's true
goal: The Delaz Fleet plans to drop a colony onto the Earth. However,
the Albion has gotten its hands on a powerful new mobile weapon, and
they are charged with preventing the colony drop.
In this mission Kou gets to pilot his new RX-78GPO3 Dendrobium
Orchis. This massive mobile armor is very powerful, and it even has an
I-Field, which will prevent it from taking damage from any beam weapons
that hit it. You will start the mission in Route Tube Mode traveling
towards the Delaz Fleet vanguard guarding the colony. Three MS-09R-2
Rick Dom II's with Giant Bazookas (Rick Dom II) will fly along side
you, so take them out by multi-locking. Another group of three MS-06F-2
Zaku II F-2's with MMP-80 Machineguns will then attack you, so destroy
them and get ready to blast a Musai LM with your main weapon, the
powerful mega cannon. The mega cannon is awesomely powerful, capable of
destroying a battleship in a single shot. You will continue forward,
being mobbed by a few MS-21C Dra-C, and encounter another Musai LM
before exiting Route Tube Mode and entering the Battle Sphere to attack
the Delaz Fleet.
Once you enter the Battle Sphere a countdown will begin. You have
five minutes to destroy your quota of battleships or you will fail the
mission. But fear not, this is part is fun! Busting battleships is
quick and easy with the powerful mega cannon. The ships will be guarded
by quite a few annoying enemy units consisting of Dra-C's, Rick Dom
II's, and Zaku II F-2's which will come in teams of three at a time,
and every time you destroy another ship more will come, up to a limit
of twenty-six. After you utterly waste seven Musai LM's and all of the
enemy mobile suits you will move on to the next area.
Well, it seems Anavel Gato is back, and he has got himself a new
shiny mobile armor too, the very powerful AMX-002 Neue Ziel. You will
again start in Route Tube Mode, and as you fly forward you will come
across a Musai LM, which you should waste with your mega cannon. You
will fly forward a little ways more and enter the Battle Sphere right
in front of another Musai LM being guarded by two Rick Dom II's. Take
heed, there will be a three minute countdown running, so if you cannot
defeat the Neue Ziel within the time limit you will fail the mission.
Destroy the two Rick Dom II's and the four Musai LM battleships in the
area for more points before you take on Gato's Neue Ziel. If you know a
special tricky-trick defeating the Neue Ziel is absolute child's play.
The Neue Ziel like to charge right up to you and use its melee attack,
and this is right where you want it. Lock onto the Neue Ziel and use
the Dendrobium Orchis' Special Attack when the Neue Ziel is close and
right in front of you. The Special Attack will release a micromissile
pod, which will shower the area in front of the Orchis with a hail of
micromissiles. Since the Neue Ziel is so incredibly huge it will have a
damn difficult time avoiding all of the micromissiles, so just fly
right up to it and use your Special Attack and it will prove absolutely
devastating. In fact one direct hit can deplete the Neue Ziel's entire
Health Gauge. Once the Neue Ziel has lost all of its Health it will
retreat from the battlefield and you will come under attack from an
annoying Zaku II F-2 that is covering for Gato's retreat, so waste the
Zaku II F-2's ass in the few remaining seconds before the mission ends.
Stage 6:
--------
The Federation Fleet has failed to prevent the colony from passing
the point of no return. A colony drop now seems inevitable. However,
Cima Garahau now turns on the Delaz Fleet and Aiguille Delaz is killed.
In a fury, Anavel Gato destroys the bridge of the Gwadan with his Neue
Ziel while Cima flees. As the fighting continues, the Federation wishes
to at least change the colony's trajectory before it falls.
Kou is still in the uber-powerful RX-78GPO3 Dendrobium Orchis, but
unfortunately your Shield gauge will already be broken at the start of
the mission, so your I-Field is disabled. Boo hoo... After exiting the
plummeting colony Kou comes across the Cima Fleet and decides its time
to take care of some unfinished business, even though the Cima Fleet is
technically on the Federation's side... When the mission begins there
will already be two pink Cima Fleet Musai LMs in the area, as well as
one green Musai LM that belongs to the Delaz Fleet that will make
combat runs on the Cima Fleet battleships. Two MS-14F Gelgoog Marines
with MMP-80 Machineguns will also be in the area, and if you destroy
them additional enemy mobile suits will come, including MS-06F-2 Zaku
II F-2's armed with MMM-80 Machineguns. Enemy mobile suits will stop
coming after you have destroyed fourteen of them, which is most easily
done before you take out any of the battleships. After destroying one
of the pink Cima Fleet Musai LM's, Cima' Zanzibar II flagship, the Lili
Marleen, will move into the area. When you destroy the second pink
Musai LM Cima Garahau herself will launch in the AGX-04 Gerbera Tetra
packing heat in the form of a Beam Machinegun (Gerbera Tetra). Try to
keep the Gerbera Tetra right in front of you. You can try to attack the
Gerbera Tetra with your melee attacks, but the large claw beam sabers
are incredibly clumsy and slow to swing. The mega beam cannon is also
slow, so Cima will usually have rolled out of the way. The real trick
to end this fight quick is to use your Special Attack when Cima is
directly in front of the Dendrobium Orchis. This will release a
micromissile pod, which will shower the area with micromissiles, as
well as three larger homing missiles. If Cima's Gerbera Tetra gets
caught up in the micromissiles radius, she is pretty much a goner,
unless she can try to barrel roll out of the way, in which case she
will only take major critical damage. Doing this it shouldn't be long
before the Gerbera Tetra is finished. Destroy the Gerbera Tetra and you
will move on to the next area.
After Cima is killed, Kou moves on to the colony, where he finds his
rival Gato waiting for him in the AMX-002 Neue Ziel. Now you must
defeat the Neue Ziel. This is ludicrously easy to do given the
dangerously cheesy power of the Dendrobium Orchis' Special Attack.
Since the Neue Ziel is so incredibly huge it will have a damn difficult
time avoiding all of the micromissiles, so just fly right up to it and
use your Special Attack. Nine times out of ten the Neue Ziel will be
utterly destroyed with one or two Special Attacks. Any more than that
and it's got to be just 'cause you can't aim very well. Once the Neue
Ziel has lost all of its Health the mission will end. Good job!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Anavel Gato
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stage 1:
--------
December 24, 0079, the tides of war have turned against the Zeon as
the Federation Forces overwhelm the Zeon space fortress of Solomon.
Humiliated, the remaining Zeon begin their retreat from the giant
asteroid base to take refuge at A Baoa Qu. Of these forces is the Doroa
corps, which is fleeing the pursuing Federation Forces. Anavel Gato
"The Nightmare of Solomon" is asked to guard the fleet from Federation
attacks while it makes it escape.
You will be piloting the MS-09RS(AG) Rick Dom Anavel Gato Custom
armed with a Beam Bazooka (Rick Dom) during this mission. You must
protect the Doroa as it escapes. The Doroa is a VERY tough ship, so it
can take a quite a pounding and still be in good shape, so just
concentrate on watching out for yourself and destroying any hostiles.
If the Doroa should be destroyed, which will take a long time and only
would happen if you are quite incompetent and don't destroy any of the
Federation battleships, allowing them to sit and bombard the Doroa with
missiles and beam fire. The enemy fleet will be comprised solely of
Salamis class battleships. They won't be without protection however, as
there will several RGM-79 GMs armed with Beam Spray Guns, many Public
fighters, and a few RB-79 Balls attacking you and the fleeing
battleship groups, but if you destroy thirty-three enemy units then
they will cease coming altogether.
If you should have your Health Gauge fall below 75% than Karius will
radio in requesting to support you. Karius is piloting an MS-06F Zaku
II armed with a Zaku Machinegun. You can call him in if you wish, but
he shouldn't be needed. Continue to destroy the enemy units, and
destroy the Salamis battleships as they come. The easiest way to
destroy the Federation battleships is to use the Rick Doms Special
Attack. The Beam Bazooka (Rick Dom) Special Attack is obscenely
powerful and just one glancing shot will completely destroy the
battleship. After you destroy six Salamis battleships the pursuing
fleet will announce they are falling back and mission will end in
success.
Stage 2:
--------
December 31st, 0079, the Earth Federation Space Forces continue
their bold offensive into the Zeon homeland. Following the Zeon's
crushing defeat at the Battle of Solomon, Anavel Gato has sworn
revenge. The Federation has now aligned its fleet to attack A Baoa Qu,
the Zeon's final space fortress and the only thing standing in between
the Federation and Side 3. Both forces prepare for what may be the
final battle of the war, and Anavel Gato joins the 302nd Patrol Unit to
defend A Baoa Qu's S Field. Anavel Gato will be piloting his newly
acquired unit, the MS-14A(AG) Gelgoog Anavel Gato Custom which is armed
with the unique Prototype Beam Rifle, which is more powerful than a
standard Beam Rifle (Gelgoog), but suffers from energy conservation
issues so recharging spent shots will take a little while longer.
Your objective is to destroy the hell out of everything that even
seems hostile. Simple enough, seemingly, but this part of the mission
is pretty tough. When you start the mission you will already have a ton
of enemies ahead of you, including several RGM-79 GM armed with Beam
Spray Guns, RGM-79GS GM Commands armed with Beam Guns, RGM-79SP GM
Sniper II's armed with a Sniper Rifle, and a few RB-79 Balls, and
Public fighters. After thirty-eight seconds in the mission Char Aznable
will pass by and ask if you want him to support you. Take him if you
wish, because he will certainly put the hurt on the hordes of enemy
units in his MSN-02 Zeong... not to mention Gato ridiculing the Zeong's
lack of legs is priceless. Char will only stay for about one minute and
ten seconds, but his help is greatly appreciated, as this can be a very
tough fight! After twenty-five of the enemy units that are actively
attacking you (not including the enemies that passively fly to A Baoa
Qu) have been destroyed, you will enter Route Tube mode and head to a
new section of the battlefield.
Once you arrive in the new area, Karius will ask if you want him to
support you. Karius is once again in the MS-06F Zaku II with a Zaku
Machinegun. In this new area you must stop the Federation battleships
from crossing the defensive lines. If five enemy battleships should
escape the battlefield you will fail the mission. Of course that
shouldn't happen if you don't spend too much time concentrating on the
enemy units instead of the battleships. The enemies in this area
consist of several GM Commands and regular GMs. Several GM, Balls, and
Public will also passively head towards A Baoa Qu, making for easy
targets. Destroy all of the enemy units or battleships and the mission
will end.
Stage 3:
--------
November 11th, Universal Century 0083... The One Year War has been
over for three years, but some of the scars of war can never heal.
Refusing to accept the defeat of the Principality of Zeon, Aiguille
Delaz has formed his own fleet, the Delaz Fleet, to continue to wage
the war against the Earth Federation and at his side is Anavel Gato.
After an incident in Australia, Anavel Gato was able to successfully
steal the earth Federation mobile suit RX-78GPO2A Gundam Physalis,
which is carrying a nuclear payload. The Delaz Fleet plans to use this
nuclear weapon to conduct a devastating attack on the Federation's
naval review, which is being conducted at Konpei Island, Zeon's former
fortress of Solomon. Now, using the Gundam Physalis, Gato now plans to
return to avenge his previous defeat at Solomon.
The first half of this mission will take place completely in Route
Tube Mode. You will launch in the Gundam Physalis and head towards
Solomon. Your only weapons will be the Physalis' head vulcans. But nay,
these are not normal head vulcans! These are uber-vulcans! It's almost
silly how powerful the Gundam Physalis' head vulcans are, but they had
to do something to give this heap a worthwhile attack. You will have
Karius tagging along with you in an MS-09R-2 Rick Dom II armed with a
Giant Bazooka (Rick Dom II), until the end of the asteroid section. You
will start in a debris field and head towards the Federation Fleet at
Konpei Island. In the debris field there will mostly be a few RGM-79GS
GM Commands armed with Beam Guns, and RGM-79 GM armed with Beam Spray
Guns, as well as a few defense satellite emplacements scattered about.
Try to destroy as much as possible with your head vulcans. When you
reach the end of the debris field, Karius will stay behind. The
Physalis will fly towards the Federation's naval review. There will be
several Salamis battleships here, use you multi-lock to spam them with
fire from your head vulcans to destroy as many Salamis as possible.
It's kind of ridiculous that a simple shower of head vulcan fire can
destroy a battleship, isn't it folks? Once you reach the core of the
fleet the Route Tube Mode of the mission will end. You will enter a cut
scene and Anavel Gato will proceed to nuke the Earth Federation Forces
naval review.
After nuking the Federation Fleet, Anavel Gato will make his escape
only to be confronted by Kou Uraki in the RX-78GPO1Fb Gundam
Zephyranthes Full Vernian armed with the Beam Rifle (GP Series). It
seems Kou is still pretty steamed about the whole nuking thing, so he
will challenge you to a duel. Stay the hell out of ranged combat with
Kou's Gundam. All you have are those worthless head vulcans, and he's
got a beam rifle and can use his Special Attack. You are incredibly
out-gunned. The most expedient way to end this is to just beat the
ever-living hell out of the Gundam Zephyranthes Full Vernian in close
combat with the Gundam Physalis' beam sabers. Just keep beating on Kou
until the Gundam Zephyranthes Full Vernian's Health Gauge is completely
empty and the mission will end.
Stage 4:
--------
Following the successful nuclear attack on the Earth Federation
naval review the Delaz Fleet begins the true objective of Operation
Stardust: To drop a colony onto the Earth. By hijacking a colony that
was being transported and pretending to drop it on the moon, the
Federation wastes precious time chasing the colony to a false
destination, and is lured into a trap. Anavel Gato has even been given
a new toy by the Axis Zeon advance fleet, a new mobile armor, and this
will be the perfect opportunity to try it out.
You get to piddle around in the AMX-002 Neue Ziel for this mission,
and what a super-powerful contraption this mobile armor is. Aside from
being big and powerful, the Neue Ziel is also equipped with an I-Field,
which will negate any damage that beam weapons would do to you as long
as your Shield Gauge does not "BREAK!" That kicks ass! However, as
previously stated, the Neue Ziel is big, so piloting it can feel rather
clumsy as it is sometimes hard to see what you are doing around its
massive olive frame. Your objective in this part of the mission is to
wreck the hell out of the pursuing Federation Fleet, which given the
sheer power of the Neue Ziel should be pretty darned easy to do. The
fleet consists mostly of Salamis battleships with a few Magellan as
well. The fleet will be guarded by several RB-79 Balls, and RGM-79GS GM
Commands with Beam Guns, but they are laughable compared to your new
pimpin' ride. Use the Neue Ziel's multi-lock attack and Special Attacks
to make short work of the Federation's wimpy battleships. After you
destroy fifteen of the Federation's battleships this section of the
mission will end and you will head out.
On you way back to rendezvous with the Delaz Fleet you will be
confronted by a new Earth Federation mobile armor, the RX-78GPO3 Gundam
Dendrobium Orchis. And to make things even more annoying, it's being
piloted by Kou Uraki. Now the good news is that both the Neue Ziel's
Health Gauge and Shield Gauge will be completely and 100% refilled when
you reach this point, so you are in tip-top shape. Kou will fly around
the battlefield for a little while minding his own business, that is
until he destroys one of the Delaz Fleet's Musai LMs, after which then
he will focus on attacking you alone. The Dendrobium Orchis' main
tactic is just plain deadly if you are dumb enough to stay close, so
for your own safety stay far away from the Dendrobium Orchis. Kou's
main tactic is to line up the Dendrobium Orchis in a straight line with
the Neue Ziel and fire off its Special Attack. This will release a
micromissile pod that fires off a barrage of missiles in the immediate
area in front of the Orchis, as well as three larger missiles that will
semi-home in on you. The large missiles are hard to avoid due to the
Neue Ziel's large size, and they hurt a good bit, but that's not what
you should be worried about. The main problem is if you get caught up
in the barrage of small missiles YOU. ARE. DEAD. PERIOD! So just stay
the hell away from the Dendrobium Orchis to avoid that attack. The
second Kou uses the Orchis' Special Attack you should use your Special
Attack and then immediately barrel roll out of the way, because after
firing off the micromissile pod Special Attack Kou will charge straight
forward and attempt to hit you with the Orchis' large claw beam sabers.
When the Orchis starts to get close to you begin to pelt it with your
homing missile sub-weapons and launch off your claw arm melee attacks.
This will stop the Orchis dead in its tracks, so just keep slamming the
Orchis with melee attacks until it passes you by. Once Kou gets a good
bit away from you, he will barrel roll, turn around, and use his
Special Attack starting the entire pattern all over again. Just keep
using the above tactics and you should stomp the Dendrobium Orchis like
an icky bug in no time. After the Dendrobium Orchis' Health Gauge has
been completely depleted the mission will end.
Stage 5:
--------
The colony continues to head towards Earth, the colony drop almost
guaranteed to succeed. But Cima Garahau's Fleet turns traitor and she
kills Aiguille Delaz. With the information Cima provided to the Earth
Federation they had time to prepare their trump card, the Solar System
II. With a single blast the new Solar System could destroy the colony
and the remnants of the Delaz Fleet all together. It must be disabled!
This mission can be extremely difficult! Sure you're still piloting
the incredible uber-powerful continuity buster of a mobile armor, the
AMX-002 Neue Ziel, but the Shield Gauge is already broken so you don't
have an I-Field. The targets you have to contend with are so much
smaller than you they will be very hard to see, not to mention that the
Neue Ziel is so enormous that it will obstruct most of the screen. Now,
your objective is to destroy the Federation control ships that are
controlling the Solar System II. However you are under very tight time
restrictions; you only have two minutes and thirty seconds to destroy
all three of the Columbus, but the Columbus control ships aren't even
out at the beginning of the mission so you'll have to destroy a few
things until they do show up. If the time limit should expire, the
Solar System will fire and you will fail the mission.
To make matters even worse, the Solar System is very heavily
guarded. To your own credit you will automatically have a one MS-06F-2
Zaku II F-2 packing an MMP-80 Machinegun providing support for you.
Several RB-79 Balls will be the initial enemies, but there will also be
three pink Cima Fleet Musai LM (Late Models) guarding the front of the
Solar System, as well as three Salamis battleships closer to the mirror
panels. You don't have to destroy the three Salamis battle ships, but
you might as well for the points they give. What you must do first is
destroy the three pink Cima Fleet Musai LM's, and after they are
destroyed you will be attacked by infinite hordes of RGM-79GS GM
Commands armed with Beam Guns and MS-14F Gelgoog Marines armed with
MMP-80 Machineguns. And most importantly after you destroy the three
pink Cima Fleet Musai LM's the Columbus control ships will start to
show themselves. They can be hard to see, so watch for a red indicator
arrow on the edges of the screen to see what direction those pesky
Columbus control ships are in. After one Columbus is destroyed it will
take a few seconds before the next one will enter the area. Destroy all
three of the Columbus as quickly as possible and this portion of this
mission will end. The Solar System will be fired anyway so get ready to
watch yourself some movies!
The Solar System was fired, but failed to stop the colony from
dropping. With his mission accomplished, Anavel Gato now goes to settle
the score with that constant thorn in his side, Kou Uraki. Kou is again
in the RX-78GPO3 Gundam Dendrobium Orchis, however he, just like you,
no longer have an active I-Field so he is now susceptible to beam
weapon attacks. This is much easier than the last part of the area, but
depending on how much Health you have left from the last part of the
mission you could be finished off quickly. Be sure to just stay away
from the Dendrobium Orchis, because its main tactic is just plain
deadly if you are dumb enough to stay close. Stay stationary for the
entire time you are fighting Kou; do not even move from the spot you
begin in because it will make things much easier. Kou's main tactic is
to line up the Dendrobium Orchis in a straight line with you and fire
off its Special Attack. This will release a missile pod that fires off
a ton of missiles in the immediate area in front of the Orchis, as well
as three larger missiles that will semi-home in on you. The large
missiles are hard to avoid due to the Neue Ziel's large size, and they
hurt a good bit, but that's not what you should be worried about. The
main problem is if you get caught up in the barrage of small missiles
YOU. ARE. DEAD. PERIOD! So just stay the hell away from the Dendrobium
Orchis to avoid that attack. The second Kou uses the Orchis' Special
Attack you should use your Special Attack and then immediately barrel
roll out of the way, because after firing off the micromissile pod
Special Attack Kou will charge straight forward and attempt to hit you
with the Orchis' large claw beam sabers. When the Orchis starts to get
close to you begin to pelt it with your homing missile sub-weapons and
launch off your claw arm melee attacks. This will stop the Orchis dead
in its tracks, so just keep slamming the Orchis with melee attacks
until it passes you by. Once Kou gets a good bit away from you, he will
barrel roll, turn around and use his Special Attack, starting the
entire pattern all over again. Just keep attacking the Orchis and once
it has 5% of its Health Gauge remaining Bosque Ohm will order the Solar
System be fired a second time and the mission will end in success.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Cima Garahau
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stage 1:
--------
This is the tortured tale of Cima Garahau, the scapegoat for the
sins of the Zeon higher-ups. After being conned into gassing a civilian
colony, Cima realizes the horrible act she was just tricked into doing.
When the mission starts you will be in an MS-06F Zaku II armed with a
Zaku Machinegun. You will also automatically have two wingmen tagging
along with you, both in MS-05A Zaku I's with Zaku Machineguns. Your two
wingmen will fly behind you, one on each side, and attack any nearby
enemy units, effectively trying to steal your kills. There will be four
FF-S3 Saberfish attack fighters in the area when the mission begins.
Destroy them and several more Saberfish will just keep coming. After
you have destroyed a total of twenty Saberfish fighters they will stop
coming. Destroy as many Saberfish as possible and, after about one
minute, three Salamis battleships will arrive in the area. After you've
finished off the Saberfish destroy all three of the Salamis battleships
and the mission will end.
Stage 2:
-------
Four years after the One Year War has ended, Cima Garahau is still
haunted by the horrible war crimes she was duped into committing by the
Zeon. Feeling how wrong the Zeon were for tricking her into murdering a
colony full of fellow spacenoids she attempts to get revenge and
secretly contacts the Earth Federation Forces to give them the secrets
of the Delaz Fleet's Operation Stardust. Unfortunately the secret
meeting that was arranged with the Federation battleship Birmingham was
disrupted by the arrival of the Albion. Thinking that the Birmingham is
under attack, the Albion launches to intercept the Cima Fleet.
You get to pilot the MS-14Fs(CG) Gelgoog Marine Commander Cima
Garahau Custom packing a Beam Machinegun (Gelgoog Marine CMDR). It's
quite a nice unit, although the color scheme is kind of fugly... As the
mission begins, you will be flying forward in Route Tube mode. You will
have one ally, who is also in an MS-14F Gelgoog Marine with an MMP-80
Machinegun, automatically with you. As the Birmingham retreats, it
destroys one of the Cima Fleet Musais to cover its escape, and the fact
that they were collaborating with the enemy. When you exit the Route
Tube into the Battle Sphere you will be attacked by the Albion's mobile
suit fleet. You have a two minute time limit to complete the mission
otherwise you will fail it. The first unit to attack you will be South
Burning's RGM-79N GM Command, armed with a GM Rifle. Soon after, Chuck
Keith in a RGC-83 GM Cannon II armed with a GM Rifle will also arrive.
After about fifty seconds have gone by Kou Uraki will attack with in
the RX-78GP01Fb Gundam Zephyranthes Full Vernian armed with the Beam
Rifle (GP Series). Fight off all of the enemy units. Fighting them in
close combat works best, just make sure you destroy their shields to
get more points. After each one of the units has lost all of their
Health, they will retreat from the battlefield. Make sure you defeat
the GM Custom and GM Cannon II before you defeat the Gundam
Zephyranthes Full Vernian, because once you defeat Kou's Gundam the
mission will end.
Stage 3:
--------
The Delaz Fleet has started the true phase of Operation Stardust,
and has hi-jacked a colony to drop on Earth. But Cima has sold the Zeon
remnants out as revenge for what they did to here four years ago. The
Cima Fleet has now switched its allegiance from the Delaz Fleet to the
Earth Federation.
You now get to pilot the super-sweet AGX-04 Gerbera Tetra, which is
armed with a Beam Machinegun (Gerbera Tetra). It's a great unit -very
fast and very maneuverable. You will also automatically have one MS-14F
Gelgoog Marine armed with a MMP-80 Machinegun fighting with you. Kou
Uraki will already be in the area. Unfortunately for you, that bonehead
Kou can't get it through his skull that the Cima Fleet is allied with
the Federation Forces now and he will attack you with the uber-powerful
RX-78GPO3 Dendrobium Orchis. But fortunately for you the Dendrobium's
I-Field has already been disabled so your Beam Machinegun will be able
to damage it. But your trouble doesn't end there, because the Delaz
Fleet is out to get you for defecting, so the bulk of the enemies will
consist of MS-09R Rick Doms armed with Giant Bazookas and MS-06F-2 Zaku
II F-2s armed with MMP-80 Machineguns. Also, over the course of the
mission three Delaz Fleet Musai-LM (which are Musai-Late Models) will
even enter the area, so destroy them for a ton of points. There are a
total of twenty-four Delaz Fleet mobile suits that will attack you, and
the three Musai-LM, so if you destroy them all the only remaining enemy
will be Kou's Dendrobium Orchis. Kou will mainly concentrate on
destroying the pink Cima Fleet Musais and the Lili Marleen Zanzibar II
at first, but if Kou should destroy the Lili Marleen then he will set
his sights on you alone. The destruction of the Lili Marleen will be
denoted by a change in the Background Game Music. Just hope Kou takes
awhile to finish off the battleships so you don't have to deal with
both him and the Delaz Fleet forces at once.
There are two different endings for this mission that you will get
depending on what happens. If you lose all of your Health during the
mission you will get the ending "When the Mayfly Flies. . .", but if
you destroy the Dendrobium Orchis you will get the ending "Fleeting
Mayfly." The Dendrobium Orchis is easy as heck if the Lili Marleen is
still around, as it will ignore you completely and target the
battleships as it runs from your ally. But if the Lili Marleen gets
destroyed it gets a bit tougher, as you will be the focus of all of the
Dendrobium's attention. Just stay away from the Dendrobium Orchis,
because its main tactic is just plain deadly if you are dumb enough to
stay close. Kou's main tactic is to line up the Dendrobium Orchis in a
straight line with you and fire off its Special Attack. This will
release a missile pod that fires off a ton of missiles in the immediate
area in front of the Orchis, as well as three larger missiles that will
semi-home in on you. The large missiles hurt like hell, but if you get
caught up in the barrage of small missiles YOU. ARE. DEAD. PERIOD! So
just stay the hell away from the Dendrobium Orchis to avoid that
attack. You can also use your Special Attack on the Dendrobium when it
is in front of you before it uses its Special Attack. You will do a ton
of quick damage while the Dendrobium is making itself an easy target,
just be sure to strafe to the side so those three large missiles don't
hit you (if your Special Attack doesn't shoot them down). Just destroy
that pesky Orchis -or get destroyed yourself- and the mission will end.
\ /------------\ /
[============================|Mission Mode|===========================]
/ \------------/ \
Mission mode is an interesting aspect of the game where you are
allowed to create your very own pilot. Create a Federation or Zeon
pilot, and play through your choice of eight missions that take place
during the war. As your pilot completes their missions successfully,
they will increase in rank, allowing them access to more elite units,
as well as earning skill points that can be spent to increase the
pilot's unique abilities. When your pilot has completed all eight
missions you will be able to save that pilot to your Memory Card and
use them in Versus Mode, so you can use them to beat the hell out of
your friends. So lets run down all about Mission Mode, starting from
the start, of course.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission Mode Create-A-Pilot Explanation
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The first thing you should do when you want to create a pilot is to
pick which pilot you wish to play on which side of the conflict. Each
side, both the Earth Federation and Principality of Zeon, has three
basic pilot appearances you can choose from. Each side will only be
able to use units from their own side. It is easier to build a good
Zeon pilot over a Federation pilot due to the Zeon's easier missions;
but Federation pilots can become much more powerful than a Zeon pilot
can if you are good enough to conquer their extremely difficult
missions.
Earth Federation Space Force Principality of Zeon
------------------------------ --------------------------------
--A standard main character. --An elite pilot.
--A veteran pilot. --A courageous war veteran.
--A veteran female pilot. --A mysterious female pilot.
After picking your character's appearance, you can choose your
pilots personality type. You can choose between personality "Type A",
which tends to be rather upbeat or disciplined, or personality "Type B"
which tends to be much angrier to downright deranged. Besides giving
your pilot a unique attitude, their personality type will also help to
determine their starting statistics (See the chart below).
After you pick the Personality Type of your pilot, you can enter a
name for your pilot. If you have not entered a name when you select
"Done," then the game will automatically assign your pilot a default
name.
After the pilot has been assigned their name, the game will randomly
generate a set of statistics for them. As I noted above, the starting
statistics are determined by your pilot's Personality Type. Below is a
list of all of the possible starting statistics. If you do not get a
set of statistics you like, you can go back to the naming screen by
pressing the Circle button, and select "Done" again to randomly
generate another set of statistics. The only problem with this is that
every time you go back you will have to re-enter your pilot's name.
+---------------------------------------------------------+

So what do all these statistics do? Well, the most important
statistics that make up a pilot are the Shoot, Fight, Guard, and
Mobility attributes. The lowest any of these attributes can be is -20,
but they can be increased to a maximum of 50 by spending experience
points earned by completing missions. All mission mode pilots will
start with negative attributes.
--The Shoot attribute effects how much damage your unit will do when
they attack with any long-ranged or projectile weapon. It also effects
how many lock-ons your unit can maintain at one time when it uses the
multiple lock-on.
--The Fight attribute effects how much damage your unit will do when
they attack with a melee weapon. It also effects how quickly your unit
can swing their melee weapon, and how quickly and how far your unit
will travel forward when they perform a melee attack.
--As can be expected, the Guard attribute effects how much damage you
receive when you are hit by an enemy attack. Having a higher Guard
attribute will slightly reduce the damage your unit's Health Gauge will
sustain when it receives damage.
--And lastly, the Mobility attribute will increase the speed at which
your unit can travel. It will also slow the consumption of the Thruster
Gauge when in use and increase the unit's turning speed and overall
maneuverability.
--In addition to the four main attributes, each pilot has six Special
Skill slots. When you purchase new skills, they will be listed here.
Some pilots may also randomly start with a Special Skill depending on
which personality type is chosen; but pilots that start with Special
Skills also tend to start with lower attributes.
Once you have chosen your starting attributes you are ready to play
your first Mission Mode mission. Successful completion of a mission
will earn you experience points to spend on your pilot, as well as
increase the rank of your pilot, which will give them access to more
(and more powerful) units. Note that the cost of the weapon you equip
will not count towards the Deployment Cost of a unit in Mission Mode.
Pilot Ranks Successful Missions Units Available
----------- ------------------- -------------------------------
MCPO NONE below 40 Deployment Points
Ensign One Mission below 60 Deployment Points
LTJG Two Missions below 80 Deployment Points
LT Three Missions below 100 Deployment Points
LCDR Four Missions below 120 Deployment Points
Commander Five Missions below 140 Deployment Points
Captain Six Missions below 250 Deployment Points
See the sections on the Earth Federation Missions and Principality
of Zeon Missions for information on the individual Mission Mode
missions that are available to play; but for now, we shall dabble
further into the creation of your pilot.
After completing a mission, your pilot will receive points in three
separate attributes. You will receive Pilot points, Mind points, and
Body points as a reward with which you can spend to increase your
pilot's four main attributes and purchase Special Skills.
Here are the costs for purchasing increases of your pilot's main
attributes. Note that the cost of raising your attributes will increase
as that attribute is increased.
Shooting +1
-----------
Adds one point to Shooting attribute.

And these are the Special Skills that are available to your pilots.
Your pilot can only have a total of six Special Skills, and not all of
them can be simply bought with experience points. Some Special Skills
must be earned, or are only available to a character who starts with
that skill. It should be noted that the cost of some Special Skills
will fluctuate as your character grows in strength. Some skills will
increase in cost, while others decrease in cost, dependent on your
pilot's attributes and experience points. The costs listed below are

Special Bonus Multipliers
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This section details the ways in which to achieve special bonuses at
the end of the missions in mission mode. The bigger the bonus you get,
the more experience points you get to spend on your pilot! There are
two different types of bonuses: the Special Bonus multiplier, and the
Unit Bonus multiplier.
The first bonus, as previously mentioned, is the Special Bonus. This
bonus varies from mission to mission, but the highest Special Bonus
possible is a 1.50 multiplier. The next highest available is a 1.20
multiplier. Those are the only two possible multipliers for Special
Bonuses.
Special Bonuses are usually obtained in one of a few ways. This
includes having a vast majority of your unit's Health Gauge remaining
at the end of the mission (usually 80% or higher), by completing a
mission quickly (under 120 to 90 seconds), or having a high Score when
you complete the mission. Those are some of the ways to get the bonus,
but still there are other ways to get Special Bonuses as well. The
individual way to achieve the Special Bonuses will be detailed further
down in the sections for each individual mission.
If you fail a mission in place of the Special Bonus you will instead
get a Penalty Bonus. The Penalty Bonus is .10, which will completely
crush the amount of points you get from the mission. So don't fail your
missions if you actually want a good pilot, damn it!
The second bonus, the Unit Bonus, is derived directly from the unit
you piloted during the mission. The weaker the unit, the higher the
bonus you get from piloting it into battle; therefore it is very
worthwhile to try and take sissified units into combat to get as high a
Unit Bonus as possible... That is if you don't get shot down... In this
way, the game rewards you for taking on more difficult missions in
weaker units.
Missions that randomly choose a unit for you to use also add an
additional 0.20 bonus to any unit's multiplier at the end of the
mission to compensate for the added challenge of being hurled into
combat with a random unit. This can add up to having up to a 2.10 Unit
Multiplier if you get stuck in a cheap unit such as a Core Fighter.
This can make things hellishly difficult, but can effectively double
the amount of experience points your pilot gets!
The skills Politics and Engineer WILL NOT effect the Unit Multiplier
bonus given at the end of the mission, even though they do lower a
unit's base cost by 10 and 5 points respectively.
The weapon you choose to take into combat also DOES NOT effect the
Unit Multiplier bonus at the end of the mission. A GM Custom armed with
a Beam Gun and a GM Custom with a Bullpup Machinegun will still both
give the same 1.36 Unit Multiplier bonus at the end of the mission. So
since your weapon will not effect your bonus you should always take the
most powerful weapon available to you.
Failing a mission will ensure a flat 1.00 Unit Bonus no matter what
you piloted in the mission, ensuring that you get no extra points, you
failure, you!

Earth Federation Missions
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
When you start playing Mission Mode with a Federation pilot, four of
the following One-Star missions will be available to play. Mission
difficulty is gauged by how many stars the mission has. The lowest and
easiest missions are One-Star missions, and the hardest, most advanced,
and difficult missions are Five-Star missions. You will start off with
four One-Star missions to choose from in the beginning: one Pilot
(Blue) mission, one Mind (Green) mission, one Body (Orange) mission,
and one Balanced (Tri-Colored) mission. Pick which mission you wish to
play. Once you choose a mission, you CAN NOT change your mind. If you
fail a mission, you will NEVER get a chance to replay it with that
pilot. The game will try to provide you with missions of the same
category as the ones you have played. If you play through mostly Body
missions, the game will give you more Body missions. If you show
extreme skill, and do not lose, you may even get to try your hand at
some higher difficulty missions.
Most blue (Pilot), green (Mind) and orange (Body) missions pay out
on the following scale, where the first, higher number is the main
attribute and the other two lower numbers are the other two attributes.
With only a few exceptions (see below), missions of the same type and
star difficulty pay identical points.
Normal Mission Point Payouts
--------------------------------
1-Star: 140/ 30/ 30 (200 total)
2-Stars: 200/ 45/ 45 (290 total)
3-Stars: 300/ 70/ 70 (440 total)
4-Stars: 480/100/100 (680 total)
5-Stars: 650/150/150 (950 total)
There's also a category for special and non-combat missions. The
blue (Pilot) Capture the Cruiser, green (Mind) Clear Shoal Zone, and
orange (Body) Solar System Construction missions fall into this
category. These missions might be difficult and very annoying, but they
pay double the standard mission value to the other two minor attributes
by way of reward. So, since they have a better points payout, if you
see them you should ALWAYS give them a try in lieu of a similar colored
mission of the same difficulty. Unfortunately, special missions do not
go any higher than 3-Stars in difficulty and there are no balanced
(Tri-color) non-combat or special missions.
Special Mission Point Payouts
--------------------------------
2-Stars: 200/ 90/ 90 (380 total)
3-Stars: 300/140/140 (580 total)
Interestingly enough, all balanced (Tri-color Pilot/Mind/Body)
missions pay slightly less than the focused one-color mission types. In
most cases the point penalty is trumped by the utility and over-all
usefulness of having a balanced amount of points spread between all
three experience categories. So, even though balanced missions pay less
than single-colored missions of the same difficulty, they are still far
superior for building good pilots.
Tri-Colored Mission Payouts
--------------------------------
1-Star: 60/ 60/ 60 (180 total)
2-Stars: 90/ 90/ 90 (270 total)
3-Stars: 140/140/140 (420 total)
4-Stars: 210/210/210 (630 total)
5-Stars: 300/300/300 (900 total)
So, without further adieu, here are the missions for the Earth
Federation Forces!

|1.50 - Complete the mission with a Score over 150,000. |
|1.20 - Complete the mission with a Score over 100,000. |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
For this mission you must destroy a fleet of Musai and Chivvay space
cruisers. There will be several MS-06F Zaku IIs armed with Zaku
Machineguns or Zaku Bazookas and MS-05A Zaku Is armed with Zaku
Machineguns swamping the battlefield. In addition, every time you
destroy a battleship an MS-09R Rick Dom with a Giant Bazooka will spawn
from the wreckage. Fly over to the Zeon battleships and destroy them as
they come. After twenty-five seconds have gone by Christina McKenzie
will offer to come in and support you in the Gundam Alex, so accept
this hot redheads offer and she will come in and take care of the enemy
units for you, leaving you to tend to the enemy battleships. Just take
out seven enemy battleships -two Chivvay and five Musai- and the
mission will end successfully.

This mission is just like the One-Star version except this time your
unit will be chosen for you at random. You still must destroy the fleet
of Musai and Chivvay space cruisers coming from Solomon, but it's just
a little tougher. There will be several MS-06F Zaku IIs armed with Zaku
Machineguns or Zaku Bazookas and MS-05A Zaku Is armed with Zaku
Machineguns swarming the battlefield in squads of three. In addition,
every time you destroy a battleship an MS-09R Rick Dom with a Giant
Bazooka will spawn from the wreckage. Destroy the Zeon battleships as
they come. After twenty-five seconds have gone by Christina McKenzie
will offer to come in and support you in the Gundam Alex, and it isn't
polite to turn down a request from a lady. Chris will come in and take
care of the enemy units for you, leaving you to tend to the enemy
battleships. Just take out seven enemy battleships, two Chivvay and
five Musai, and the mission will end successfully.

This mission is now a good deal tougher, but at least you are able
to choose your own unit again. When the mission begins you will fly in
the Route Tube to the enemy fleet consisting of Chivvays and Musais
nearing A Baoa Qu. You will get dumped into the Battle Sphere and
enemies will start approaching your unit. Enemies include MS-09R Rick
Doms armed with Giant Bazookas and MS-14A Gelgoogs armed with Beam
Rifles (Gelgoog). After twenty-five seconds go by a nameless grunt will
offer to come in and support you in a GM Command, so accept his offer
and he will help keep the enemy mobile suits off your case.
Fortunately, there will not be any mobile suits that spawn from the
ships when they are destroyed, so that's one less thing to worry about.
Just destroy seven battleships and the mission will end.

Tube to the enemy fleet where three Musais will already be visible in a
near Earth orbit. You will get dumped into the Battle Sphere and

armed with Beam Machineguns (Gelgoog Jäger). After twenty-five seconds
go by a nameless grunt will offer to come in and support you in a
regular GM, so accept his offer and he try to help keep the enemy
mobile suits off your back. Watch out, because when you destroy an
enemy Chivvay an MS-09R-2 Rick Dom II armed with a Giant Bazooka (Rick
Dom II) and a Gelgoog Jäger, or just a lone Gelgoog Jäger, or a
standard Gelgoog will spawn from the wreck... just one more thing to
worry about. Just destroy nine enemy battleships and the mission will
end successfully.

This mission is pretty similar to the Four-Star version, but there
is one deadly plot twist here. Your unit will be chosen randomly. Ugh!
Cross your fingers and hope for something that doesn't suck. When the
mission begins you will fly in the Route Tube to the enemy fleet where
three Musais will already be visible in a near Earth orbit. You will
get dumped into the Battle Sphere and enemies will start approaching
your unit. Enemies still include MS-14A Gelgoogs armed with Beam Rifles
(Gelgoog) and MS-14JG Gelgoog Jägers armed with Beam Machineguns
(Gelgoog Jäger), although they come in less numbers then before. After
twenty-five seconds go by a nameless grunt will offer to come in and

nine Zeon battleships and the mission will end.

You will be given an RX-78-2 Gundam for this mission, so you have a
pretty good bit of firepower at your disposal. When the mission begins
the first Pazock you must destroy will be in front of you. It is being
escorted by a Musai and a unit of two MS-06F Zaku II with Zaku
Machineguns and one MS-05A Zaku I with a Zaku Machinegun. Ignore the
Musai and target the Pazock, and try to avoid the enemy Zaku units. An
even better idea would be to position the Pazock between your unit and
the enemy units so they damage it while firing at you. After about 30
seconds your ally in a GM Sniper II will radio in for support. Call him
in and he will attack those pesky Zakus, keeping them off of your back
and allowing you to destroy those Pazocks easier. After the first
Pazock is destroyed two more Pazocks, escorted by another Musai will
start to move into the area. A red indicator arrow will appear on the
screen, showing which direction they are in, so head in that direction.
Destroy the two Pazocks and the mission will end successfully.

You will be assigned a random unit and weapon and be forced to

Thankfully you get to choose your own unit once more for this
tougher rendition of the Assault Enemy Transport Fleet mission. You
must once again destroy a fleet of Pazock supply ships. When the
mission begins the first Pazock you must destroy will be in front of
you. It is being escorted by a Musai and a unit of three MS-06F-2 Zaku
II F-2s armed with Zaku Machineguns, but if you keep destroying the
enemies a few MS-09R-2 Rick Dom IIs armed with Giant Bazookas (Rick Dom
II) will start to show up. Ignore the Musai and target the Pazock,
while trying to avoid the enemy units, or try to position the Pazock
between yourself and the enemy units so they damage it while firing at
your unit. After about 30 seconds your ally, a GM Command, will radio

a Musai will move into the area. Destroy that final Pazock and the
mission will end successfully.

Again, you are able to select your own unit for this mission. Choose
wisely. The mission has now become drastically more difficult, with
stronger enemy units, and better pilots controlling them. You must once
again destroy a fleet of Pazock supply ships. When the mission begins
the first Pazock you must destroy will be in front of you. It is being
escorted by a Musai and a unit of two Gelgoog Marines with MMP-80
Machineguns and one Gelgoog Jäger with a Beam Machinegun (Gelgoog
Jäger). Ignore the Musai and target the Pazock, while trying to avoid
the enemy units. After about 30 seconds your ally, a worthless little
Ball, will radio in for support. Call him in and just to give the
enemies somebody else to play with. The Ball will try to attack the
enemies, giving you a little more wiggle room to destroy those Pazocks
easier, but the enemies will still be coming after you with a vengeance
so don't let your guard down. After the first Pazock is destroyed two
more Pazocks, escorted by two more Musais will start to move into the

This mission is exactly like the 4-Star version of Assault Enemy
Transport Fleet, but once again the unit you pilot will be selected at
random from a very narrow choice list. A unit will be picked randomly
from every unit you have unlocked that has a unit cost of 50 points or
less, hence the term "difficult" being applied here. If you get one of
the fighter jet types like the G-Fighter, or Saberfish than you are in
luck because these units are great at these missions. Just pray you
don't get something lousy like a Ball or Guntank, otherwise you are in
deep trouble because the enemy units are even more vicious than last
time. You must once again destroy a fleet of Pazock supply ships. When
the mission begins the first Pazock you must destroy will be in front
of you. The Pazock is being escorted by a Musai and a unit of two
Gelgoog Marines with MMP-80 Machineguns, and one Gelgoog Jäger with a
Beam Machinegun (Gelgoog Jäger). Ignore the Musai and target the
Pazock, while trying to avoid the enemy units. After about 30 seconds
your ally, still a pathetic little Ball, will radio in for support.
Call him in to attempt to take some of the heat off of you, but don't
expect miracles. Once the first Pazock is destroyed two more Pazocks,
escorted by two more Musai will start to move into the area. A red
indicator arrow will appear on the screen, showing which direction they
are in, so head in that direction. Destroy the two Pazocks and another

This mission is relatively simple. In the beginning of the mission
you will be up against several squads of three mobile suits, consisting
of a mixture of MS-05A Zaku I's and MS-06F Zaku II's armed with Zaku
Bazookas and Zaku Machineguns. You won't see it in the beginning, but
there is a secret four minute countdown going on in the background.
Destroy the Zakus while waiting for the Musai to show up. After the
Musai arrives and all the enemy units are destroyed a red arrow will
appear on the screen indicating the direction of the Musai you need to
land on and the remainder of the four minute countdown will start, so
you must capture the Musai before time runs out. Fly towards the Musai,
ignoring the enemies in-between you and it. There will be a unit of two
Zaku II's and a MS-09R Rick Dom guarding the Musai, and more will keep
coming if you destroy one, so just ignore them and land on the Musai.
It is best to approach the Musai from the above front. Stay high over
the Musai and when you are over the bridge area, dive straight down and
attempt to lock-on to the area you need to land, which is denoted by a
yellow lock-on cursor as opposed to the normal red. The close proximity
of the Musai's combat bridge to the area you need to land in can make
locking-on to the correct target difficult, but once you have the
landing area in you crosshairs, hit the Square button to land and
complete the mission.

be pretty well armed and armored for what is a pretty simple mission.
The objective here is to destroy the enemy cruisers. There will be
three Musai battleships in the area that you need to waste to complete
the mission. There will be a few MS-05A Zaku Is with Zaku Machineguns
guarding the ships, but it's best to ignore them and go for the
battleships themselves. After about twenty-five seconds a Guncannon
will radio in for support. Call him in and he will keep those damn
Zakus off your tail. Every time you destroy one of the Musais, an
additional Zaku I will spawn from its exploded hull. Destroy the three
Musai to complete the mission. But if even one Musai should escape the
area you will fail, so destroy those ships!

In this mission you must clear a path through a shoal zone to allow
a Salamis to pass through safely. You have a GM Command to work with.
You can not attack in this mission; you must use your special commands
to lock onto and drag debris around. There will be three separate areas
you must remove debris from. You will be given about one minute in each
area to move as much debris as possible. You will enter the area in
route tube mode, and when you arrive you will enter the battle sphere.
Lock onto a piece of debris and press the Square button to grab it, and
then drag it outside of the green lines. Do not press the Cross (X)
button to use your thrusters while holding a piece of debris, as this
will cause you to drop the debris you are holding. Pressing the Square
button again will throw the debris away from you a bit, so use this to
throw debris out of the area. You will hear a feint "bwoop" noise if
the debris has successfully left the operation area. Move as much
debris as you possibly can before the minute is up, and you will be
moved to the next area. You must try to clear three areas of as much
debris as possible. After time is up in the third area the mission will
end. If you didn't move at least twenty pieces of debris, the Salamis
will attempt to move through the shoal zone and will be destroyed. If
you moved twenty or more pieces of debris the mission will be a
success.

You must guard two Columbus class cruisers for three minutes in this
mission, which isn't too difficult considering the enemies attacking
you aren't so tough. You also have a Salamis cruiser escorting the two
Columbus transports with you. The enemies will come in from all sides.
Enemy units consist mostly of MS-05A Zaku Is with Zaku Machineguns and
MS-06F Zaku IIs with MMP-80 Machineguns, however a few Gattle attack
fighters and a single MS-09R Rick Dom armed with a Giant Bazooka will
appear later in the mission. The enemies will tend to target the
Salamis first, and they will usually destroy it before shifting their
focus to destroying you or the Columbus. At twenty-five seconds be sure
to call in your ally, Jack Bayard, for support because that GM Sniper
II will wreak havoc on those Zeke scum, making it much easier to guard
the two Columbus. The mission will last for three minutes before the
Columbus cross the defensive line. As long as at least one Columbus
crosses the line you will complete the mission. If both Columbus get
destroyed, you will fail.

You must guard two Columbus class cruisers for three minutes in this
mission. You also have a Salamis cruiser escorting the two Columbus
transports with you. This mission has gotten a tad tougher since last
time, and it doesn't help one bit that your unit is chosen at random.
The enemies will come in from all sides. Enemy units consist mostly of
MS-05A Zaku Is with Zaku Machineguns and MS-06F Zaku IIs with MMP-80
Machineguns, however a few Gattle attack fighters and a single MS-09R
Rick Dom armed with a Giant Bazooka will appear later in the mission.
The enemies will come in from all sides. The enemies will tend to
target the Salamis first, and they will usually destroy it before
shifting their focus to destroying you or the Columbus. After twenty-
five seconds pass by Jack Bayard will offer to support you in a GM
Sniper II, so be sure to accept because he will tear the enemies apart,
making it much easier for you to guard the two Columbus. The mission
will last for three minutes before the Columbus cross the defensive
line. As long as at least one Columbus crosses the line you will
complete the mission. If both Columbus get destroyed, you will fail.

Again you are charged with guarding two Columbus class supply ships
for three minutes in this mission. You also have a Salamis cruiser
escorting the two Columbus transports with you, but don't expect much
from it. This mission has gotten much tougher since the Three-Star
version, and the enemies are meaner than ever. Initial enemies will be
a squad of one MS-06F Zaku II armed with a Zaku Bazooka and two MS-09R
Rick Doms armed with Giant Bazookas. After you destroy them it will be
mostly MS-05A Zaku Is with Zaku Machineguns and more Rick Doms and Zaku
IIs with Zaku Bazookas and MMP-80 Machineguns. However, towards the
end, a single MS-14A Gelgoog armed with a Beam Rifle (Gelgoog) will
enter the area, so be sure to destroy it quickly. The enemies will come
in from all sides. The enemies will tend to target the Salamis first,
and they will usually destroy it before shifting their focus to
destroying you or the Columbus. After twenty-five seconds pass by Jack
Bayard will offer to support you in a GM Command, so accept his help.
The mission will last for three minutes before the Columbus cross the
defensive line. As long as at least one Columbus crosses the line you
will complete the mission. If both Columbus get destroyed, you will
fail.

Like usual you must guard two Columbus class cruisers for three
minutes in this mission, but unlike usual your unit is chosen randomly.
And not only will it be chosen randomly, but the unit will be picked
randomly from every unit you have unlocked that has a deployment cost
of 50 points or less, hence the term "difficult" being applied here.

You can only use your mobile suits beam saber to attack in this
mission. You can't even use your sub weapons! Your opponents will also
only be limited to attacking with their melee weapons, so it's pretty
fair though. You will have the helm of the powerful Gundam Zephyranthes
Full Vernian in this mission, so you should have no problem shredding
the legions of enemies that will come after you. The enemies consist
mostly of MS-21C Dra-C's, MS-05A Zaku I's, MS-06F Zaku II's, and MS-09R

You will have control of the Gundam for this mission, which is a
slight step down from last mission. And speaking of last mission, just
like last time you are limited to only attacking with your beam saber,
and the enemies will only attack you with their melee weapons. The
enemies have had a small increase in skill, but over all things haven't
changed much. You will still see a few MS-21C Dra-C in the beginning,
followed by waves of MS-05A Zaku I's, then MS-06F Zaku II's, and a few
MS-09R Rick Doms. Make all ten enemies eat hot plasma death and victory
will be yours.

Just like last time, you are limited to melee weapons only. Only
this time you are stuck in a GM Custom. The enemies have gotten a

You can only attack with your beam saber, conspicuously just like in
the last three Chaos missions. But now you only have control of a GM
Command, which is pretty darned flimsy. The enemies have become
downright evil, and can tear you apart quickly. They will tend to beat
up on you in a group, and while you are attacking one unit, several
other units may come and backstab you! If an enemy should charge you
barrel roll out of its way, and turn around and slash it. Keep an eye
on your radar to know where all of the enemy units are at all times.
The enemy roll call includes several MS-06FZ Zaku II FZs early on, and
then MS-09R-2 Rick Dom II's mixed in. Towards the end you will also be
swarmed by a few MS-14A Gelgoogs, and even a few MS-14F Gelgoog
Marines. Destroy all twelve enemies with your beam saber and you win.

This mission is only for those with RB-79's of steel. In this
mission they stick you in a GM -a GM!- and expect you to slay the vast
legions of evil enemy Zeon's who are tons faster, stronger, and more
badass then your weakling GM in pretty much every way conceivable. Just
like in all of the Chaos missions, you and your enemies are all limited
to only being able to use your melee weapons to attack. They will tend
to beat up on you in a group, and while you are attacking one unit,
several other units may come and backstab you, which not only sucks but
could prove potentially fatal! If an enemy mobile suit should charge
you barrel roll out of its way and turn around and slash it. Keep an
eye on your radar to know where all of the enemy units are at all
times. Just like during the Four-Star version of the mission, there are

off point near the Solar System. Lock onto one of the mirror panels and
use the Square button to pick it up. Do not use your thrusters while
carrying a mirror, or you will automatically drop it. Head in the
direction of the green indicator arrow with a mirror in hand and after
awhile of cruising you will see a green cube area. Drop the mirror into
the green box area, and you should hear a beeping noise to signal that
the mirror is in the area. Now just use your thrusters to haul ass back
to the mirrors, get another mirror, come back and drop it off at the
drop off point. Lather, rinse, and repeat. You have three minutes to
get five mirror panels into the green area, or you fail.

will include MS-06F Zaku II's armed with either Zaku Machineguns or
Zaku Bazookas, but soon MS-06R-1 Zaku II High Mobility Types armed with
Zaku Machineguns will attack. Several MS-09R Rick Doms armed with Giant

which you must destroy your quota of ships, otherwise you will fail the
mission. The Zeon Fleet will be directly ahead of you. It is made up of
a majority of Musai with a few Chivvays. Ignore the enemy Gattle that
are flying around. They are a mere annoyance, and you can use the space
cruisers as cover from their fire anyway. After about thirty seconds
your ally, South Burning, will radio in piloting a Saberfish. Call him
in if you wish, but he will pretty much just attack the enemy units.

The mission has now taken on a much higher degree of difficulty. Not
only are the enemies much more vicious, but there are now a few MS-05A
Zaku I armed with Zaku Machineguns in this mission. As a reminder, you
are still in a Saberfish so if one of the few Zaku I's gets close
enough to melee you, you are pretty much dead unless you have a very
high Guard. The amount of ships you must destroy to end the mission has
actually decreased since last mission, but those damn Zaku Is make it
harder. You will have a three minute time limit, in which you must

Gattle that are flying around, and the few Jiccos, and do your best to
avoid the Zaku I's as well. The Gattle and Jicco can do a decent amount
of damage to you so try to use the space cruisers as cover from their
fire. Hiding underneath the hump of the Musais, between the two rear
engines, will provide an ample amount of cover, but you could get
caught in a trap if a Zaku gets up close. After about thirty seconds
your ally will radio in piloting a Public. Call him in if you wish, but
he will pretty much just attack the enemy units. After destroying seven
space cruisers the mission will end successfully. Successful completion
of this mission will unlock the Public fighter craft for use in versus
mode.

The mission has now taken on a much higher degree of difficulty. Not
only are the enemies much more vicious, but there are now a few MS-05A
Zaku I armed with Zaku Machineguns AND MS-06F Zaku IIs with Zaku
Machineguns in this mission. Yikes! As a reminder, you are still in a
Saberfish so if one of the few Zakus gets close enough to melee you
you're pretty much dead unless you have a very high Guard. The amount
of ships you must destroy to end the mission has increased. You will
have a three minute time limit, in which you must destroy your quota of
ships, otherwise you will fail the mission. The Zeon cruisers will be

You start this mission with the choice to select your own unit, so
if I may let me suggest something small and fast. You will have exactly
3 minutes to survive at Solomon before the mission ends. You will be up
against near infinite hordes of MS-05A Zaku I and MS-06F Zaku II with
Zaku Machineguns, and small squads of three Gattle will periodically
launch from Solomon just outside the mission area. The mobile suits
will come in groups of three at a time. If you destroy all three a new
group of three enemies will enter combat. This can be used to you
advantage, because if you destroy only two of the three enemies than no
new enemies will come, and you will only have to deal with the single
enemy until the mission ends. After 30 seconds, your ally in a Ball K
Type will radio in asking for support. DO NOT TAKE SUPPORT IN THIS
MISSION!!! The support you call in will destroy the last remaining
enemy, which will totally blow the strategy of evasion. So don't call
in support and just dodge the enemy fire until the three minutes are up
and the mission ends.

This mission will randomly select a unit for you to pilot. In some
missions this wold pose a serious problem, but this mission isn't of
much consequence in a weaker unit because you should be evading, not
attacking! You will have exactly 3 minutes to survive at Solomon before

Zaku I and MS-06F Zaku II with Zaku Machineguns, and small squads of

a new group of three enemies will enter combat. This can be used to you

This time you get to choose your own unit. I suggest taking a weaker

You will be given the Gundam Full Armor Type to piddle around with
in this mission, so you've got quite a bit of firepower at your
disposal. When the mission begins there will be a Chivvay battleship
directly ahead of you. One MS-17 Galbaldy a's armed with a Beam Rifle
will appear near the Chivvay accompanied by a few MS-06F Zaku IIs armed
with Zaku Machineguns. Destroy the Galbaldy a and destroy a few waves
of Zaku II's. When about thirty seconds go by your support will radio
in, so call in the Ball for backup. After the waves of Zaku II's have
been destroyed, a MAN-08 Elmeth will show up to give you a little
trouble. After destroying all of the enemy units the only thing left
will be the Chivvay, if you haven't wasted that yet. Destroy everything

You once again are in the GM Sniper II for this third rehash of this
mission and, besides increasing in strength and toughness, the enemy
roster has changed drastically. When the mission begins you will notice
that the Chivvay is still in front of you, but there is already a MAN-
03 Braw Bro mobile armor and two MS-11 Action Zakus armed with Custom
Beam Rifles (Act Zaku). Destroy the two Action Zakus before tackling
that Braw Bro. The GM Sniper II's special attack will devastate the
Braw Bro, so use that to waste it if the mobile armor is headed
straight towards or away from you. When about thirty seconds go by your
support will radio in, so call in the Ball 'cause your going to need
all the help you can get. After the Braw Bro is destroyed five Action
Zakus will attack, two at a time. Destroy the few Action Zakus and a
MAN-08 Elmeth will arrive. Destroy the Elmeth and take out the Chivvay
and the mission will end.

In the missions fourth incarnation you take a rather steep drop in
the power of the unit you are given. The mission's enemy set up is just
like last time, except the enemies are more difficult, and much more
powerful. When the mission begins you will notice that the Chivvay is
still in front of you, but there is already a MAN-03 Braw Bro mobile
armor and two MS-11 Action Zakus armed with Custom Beam Rifles (Act
Zaku) nearby. Destroy the two Action Zakus before tackling that Braw
Bro. Be careful because if the Braw Bro uses it's special attack, where
it launches it's wire-guided beam cannons and attacks you from all
angles, and it hits successfully, you will take a whole lot of damage.
After about thirty seconds go by your support will radio in, so call in
the Ball because your going to need all the help you can get. Once the
Braw Bro is destroyed seven Action Zakus will attack, in groups of two
at a time. Destroy the few Action Zakus and a MAN-08 Elmeth will
arrive. Destroy the Elmeth and take out the Chivvay and the mission
will end.

This mission is for the hardcore only! You are supplied with a plain
old GM for this mission. A normal GM! Good luck. The enemies come in
similar formations to the last mission, except the enemies are more
difficult and slightly more powerful. When the mission begins you will
notice that a Chivvay battle cruiser is in front of you, and there is
already a MAN-03 Braw Bro mobile armor and two MS-11 Action Zakus armed
with Custom Beam Rifles (Act Zaku) nearby. Destroy the two Action Zakus
before tackling that Braw Bro. Be careful because if the Braw Bro uses
it's special attack, where it launches it's wire-guided beam cannons
and attacks you from all angles, and it hits successfully, you will
probably be destroyed or at least in VERY bad shape, so be sure to
dodge that attack. When about thirty seconds go by your support will
radio in, so call in the Ball 'cause your going to need all the help

Principality of Zeon Missions
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
When you start playing Mission Mode with a Zeonic pilot, four of the
following One-Star missions will be available to play. Mission
difficulty is gauged by how many stars the mission has. The lowest and
easiest missions are One-Star mission, and the hardest, most advanced,
and difficult missions are Five-Star missions. You will start off with
four One-Star missions to choose from in the beginning: one Pilot
(Blue) mission, one Mind (Green) mission, one Body (Orange) mission,
and one Balanced (Tri-Colored) mission. Pick which mission you wish to
play. Once you choose a mission, you CAN NOT change your mind. If you
fail a mission, you will NEVER get a chance to replay it with that
pilot. The game will try to provide you with missions of the same
category as the ones you have recently played. If you play through
mostly Balanced missions, the game will give you more even Balanced
missions to play. If you show extreme skill, and do not lose, you may
even get to try your hand at some higher difficulty missions.
Most blue (Pilot), green (Mind) and orange (Body) missions pay out on
the following scale, where the first, higher number is the main
attribute and the other two lower numbers are the other two attributes.
With only a few exceptions (see below), missions of the same type and
star difficulty pay identical points.
Normal Mission Point Payouts
--------------------------------
1-Star: 140/ 30/ 30 (200 total)
2-Stars: 200/ 45/ 45 (290 total)
3-Stars: 300/ 70/ 70 (440 total)
4-Stars: 480/100/100 (680 total)
5-Stars: 650/150/150 (950 total)
There's also a category for special and non-combat missions. The
blue (Pilot) Capture the Cruiser, green (Mind) Clear Shoal Zone, and
orange (Body) Transport Fleet missions fall into this category. These
missions might be difficult, and very annoying, but they pay double the
standard mission value to the other two minor attributes by way of
reward. So, since they have a better experience points payout, if you
see them you should ALWAYS give them a try in lieu of a similar colored
mission of the same difficulty. Unfortunately, special missions do not
go any higher than 3-Stars in difficulty.
Special Mission Point Payouts
----------------------------------
2-Stars: 200/ 90/ 90 (380 total)
3-Stars: 300/140/140 (580 total)
Interestingly enough, all balanced (Tri-color Pilot/Mind/Body)
missions pay slightly less than the focused one-color mission types. In
most cases the point penalty is trumped by the utility and over-all
usefulness of having a balanced amount of points spread between all
three categories. So, even though balanced missions pay less than
single-colored missions of the same difficulty, they are still far
superior for building good pilots.
Tri-Colored Mission Payouts
--------------------------------
1-Star: 60/ 60/ 60 (180 total)
2-Stars: 90/ 90/ 90 (270 total)
3-Stars: 140/140/140 (420 total)
4-Stars: 210/210/210 (630 total)
5-Stars: 300/300/300 (900 total)
So without further adieu, here are the missions for the Principality
of Zeon!

This mission is simple enough. You just have to destroy a fleet of
enemy ships before they leave the operation area. They even let you
select your own unit for the job! Isn't that nice of them? When the
mission starts you will still be a good distance away from the enemy
fleet, so it will take at least twenty seconds for the fleet just to
get within visual range. Just head towards the red indicator arrow,
because that is the direction the fleet will be coming from. After 25
seconds tick by, your ally will radio in for back up. Take him if you
wish, but he'll mainly just attack the enemy units, not the
battleships, though this can useful if you want to keep those pesky
Feds off your back while you trash their battleships. The enemy units
will start coming after you have destroyed your second battleship, and
they will consist of mostly RGM-79 GM with Beam Spray Guns and a few
RB-79 Balls later on. A few Balls will be escorting the battleship, but
they will rarely ever attack. Should more than one battleship escape
the operation area you will fail, so be careful not to get to caught up
blasting GMs. The fleet will consist of five Salamis and one Magellan.
Destroy the ships and the mission will end.

This mission is pretty much the same as the One-Star version of
Assault Enemy Fleet, except this time the game will choose a random
unit and weapon for you. Oh joy... Just like last time you have to
destroy all of the enemy battleships before they escape the operation
area. Should more than one battleship escape, you will fail the
mission. You will have to cruise quite a ways before you reach the
enemy fleet, which will be right in front of you. After about 25
seconds tick by, your ally will radio in for back up. Take him if you
wish, but he'll mainly just attack the enemy units, not the
battleships, and at this low difficulty he won't be of much use unless
you got pegged with a really lousy unit in random selection. The enemy
units will start coming after you have destroyed your second
battleship. The enemies mainly consist of RGM-79 GMs armed with Beam
Spray Guns and a few RB-79 Balls (that really won't attack) traveling
with the battleships. Try to ignore the enemies and target the
battleships. After you destroy a total of six enemy battleships the
mission will end in success.

This mission has now changed quite a bit, but fundamentally it's
still pretty much the same mission. You will approach the in-transit
fleet from the left, and there will already be two Salamis battleships
not too far from you. Soon the enemy units will be attacking you in
squads of three. The units will consist of two RGM-79 GM with Beam
Spray Guns and one RB-79 Ball and they will just keep coming and coming
until the mission ends. After about twenty-five seconds tick by your
ally in a Zaku II High Mobility Type will radio in to request support,
so take him if you wish, although right now you probably don't need
him. Destroy the Federation Salamis and Magellan battleships as they
come, and after you have destroyed eight battleships the mission will
end.

give them hell while you can, because as soon as you destroy your
second battleship the enemies units will be swarming you. You will see
several RGM-79 GM with Beam Spray Guns, as well as many RGM-79N GM
Customs with GM Rifles, a few RX-77-2 Guncannons with Custom Beam
Rifles (Guncannon), and very few RB-79 Balls during the course of this
mission. After about 25 seconds tick by, your ally, Kelly Layzner in a
Zaku II will radio in for back up. Take him to keep those damn annoying
mobile suits off your back. Speed from battleship to battleship, and
take them out with your special attacks, and watch out for those damn
homing missiles the battleships will fire. After ten Federation
battleships have been destroyed the mission will end.

For this mission you must destroy a fleet of Federation Columbus
class transport ships. In this version you are stuck in an MA-05 Bigro,
which can be kind of cumbersome to fly if you aren't used to playing
with mobile armors. As the mission begins you will move forward and see
a Salamis battleship escorting a Columbus transport ship. When you exit
Route Tube Mode the Federation will call in their units to guard the
two ships. A unit of two RB-79 Balls and one RGM-79 GM with a Beam
Spray Gun will attack you, but just ignore them and the Salamis, and
target the Columbus. After 30 seconds go by in the mission, your ally
will radio in asking if you want him to back you up. Go ahead and take
him, as he will destroy the enemy units that will be dogging you while
you take care of those transports. Once the first Columbus is
destroyed, another Salamis and Columbus will enter the area. Head on
over and destroy the second Columbus and the mission will end.

So you thought things couldn't possibly get any worse... Boy, were
you wrong! This mission will choose a unit for you at random, but it
will only draw from the units that cost 50 or less deployment points,
so it's a pretty narrow field. Other than that this mission is exactly

This mission is relatively simple. Your objective is to land on an
enemy Earth Federation Salamis battleship, but when the mission begins
it won't be there yet. In the beginning of the mission you will be up
against several squads of three mobile suits each, consisting of a
mixture of RB-79 Balls and RGM-79 GM armed with Beam Spray Guns, as
well as a single RGM-79GS GM Command armed with a Beam Gun. You won't
see it in the beginning, but there is actually a secret four minute
countdown going on in the background. Destroy the enemy units while
waiting for the Salamis to show up. After all fifteen of the enemy
units are destroyed a red arrow will appear on the screen indicating
the direction of the Salamis you need to land on and the remainder of
the four minute countdown will start, so you must capture the Salamis
before time runs out. Fly towards the Salamis space cruiser, ignoring
the enemies in-between you and it. There will be a unit of two GM
Commands and one RGM-79SP GM Sniper II with a Sniper Rifle guarding the
Salamis, and more enemy units will keep coming if you destroy them, so
just ignore them and land on the Salamis. It is best to approach the
Salamis from the above front. Stay high over the Salamis and when you
are approaching the bridge, dive straight down and attempt to lock-on
to the area you need to land, which is denoted by a yellow lock-on
cursor as opposed to the normal red. Once you have the landing area in
you crosshairs, hit the Square button to land and complete the mission.

This mission is identical to the Two-Star Capture Enemy Cruiser

you are in a much less powerful unit. In the beginning of the mission
you will be up against several squads of three EFSF mobile suits
consisting of a mixture of RB-79 Balls and RGM-79 GM armed with Beam
Spray Guns, as well as more RGM-79GS GM Command with Beam Guns. You
won't see it in the beginning, but there is a secret four minute

units you will be notified of the Salamis' arrival. A red arrow will

|How to obtain the Special Bonus: |
|1.50 - Remove thirty-one or more pieces of debris from the area. |
|1.20 - Remove twenty-five to thirty pieces of debris from the area. |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
In this mission you must clear a path through a shoal zone to allow
a Musai to pass through safely. You have a Gelgoog to work with. You
can not attack in this mission; you must use your special commands to
lock onto and drag debris around. There will be three separate areas
you must remove debris from. You will be given about one minute in each
area to move as much debris as possible. You will enter the area in
route tube mode, and when you arrive you will enter the battle sphere.
Lock onto a piece of debris and press the Square button to grab it, and
then drag it outside of the green lines. Do not press the Cross (X)
button to use your thrusters while holding a piece of debris, as this
will cause you to drop the debris you are holding. Pressing the Square
button again will throw the debris away from you a bit, so use this to
throw debris out of the area. You will hear a feint "bwoop" noise if
the debris has successfully left the operation area. Move as much
debris as you possibly can before the minute is up, and you will be
moved to the next area. You must try to clear three areas. After time
is up in the third area the mission will end. If you didn't move at
least twenty pieces of debris, the Musai will attempt to move through
the shoal zone and will be destroyed. Great job, dummy... But as long
as you moved twenty or more pieces of debris the mission will be a
success.

one of the Salamis' either two Balls, a single Ball, or a GM will spawn

Guns. You still must destroy the fleet of three Salamis space cruisers.
Every time you destroy one of the Salamis', another Ball will spawn
from the wreckage. After about twenty-five seconds your ally will call

you destroy more enemies, a few RGM-79GS GM Commands armed with Beam
Guns will show up. If one of the Salamis cruisers should leave the

You must guard two Papua class cruisers for three minutes in this
mission, which isn't too difficult considering the enemies aren't the
greatest. You also have a Musai cruiser escorting the Papua with you.
The enemies will come in from all sides. Expect teams of mainly three
RB-79 Balls, and RGM-79 GM armed with Beam Spray Guns. Occasionally,
teams of two FF-S3 Saberfish will also streak across the battle area.
In the last minute of the operation a single RX-77-2 Guncannons with
Custom Beam Rifles (Guncannon) will appear. The enemies will tend to
target the Musai first, and they will usually destroy it before
shifting their focus to destroying you or the Papua. Be sure to call in
your Gelgoog ally for support at twenty-five seconds, because you will
definitely need all the help that you can get to guard the two Papua.
The mission will last for three minutes before the Papua cross the
defensive line. As long as at least one Papua crosses the line you will
complete the mission. If both Papua get destroyed, you will fail.

sides. Expect teams of mainly three RB-79 Balls, and RGM-79 GM armed
with Beam Spray Guns. Occasionally, teams of two FF-S3 Saberfish will
also streak across the battle area. In the last minute of the operation
a single RX-77-2 Guncannons with Custom Beam Rifles (Guncannon) will
appear. The enemies will tend to target the Musai first, and they will
usually destroy it before shifting their focus to destroying you or the
Papua. Be sure to call in your Gelgoog ally for support at twenty-five
seconds, because you will definitely need all the help that you can get
to guard the Papua. The mission will last for three minutes before the
Papua cross the defensive line. As long as at least one Papua crosses
the line you will complete the mission. If both Papua get destroyed,
you will fail.

This mission has gotten a bit tougher, but at least you can select
your own unit again. Free choice is a good thing! You still have to
guard two Papua class cruisers for the missions three minute duration.
You will also have a Musai cruiser escorting the Papua with you. The

RGM-79 GM armed with Beam Spray Guns, RGM-79GS Commands armed with Beam
Guns, and a few RB-79 Balls and RX-77-2 Guncannons armed with Custom

You must destroy the Salamis battleship controlling the Solar
System, and the game assigns you a badass Gelgoog Jäger to do it with.
You have a three minute time limit to complete your objective,
otherwise you will fail the mission. This is more than enough time
though, so don't sweat it. You start off a rather far ways away from
the Solar System so it will probably take about ten to twenty seconds
just to get with in attacking distance. The main force guarding the
Salamis will be a squad of three RB-79 Balls. A few RGM-79 GM toting
Beam Spray Guns will appear later if you keep destroying enemy units,
but I suggest ignoring the enemies completely and just targeting the
Salamis. After about twenty-five seconds go by your ally piloting a
sweetass Kämpfer, will radio in asking if you want backup. You can call
him in if you want an ally to do some crowd control on enemy units, but
he really isn't needed at this low a difficulty. Just destroy the
Salamis and the mission will end.

+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
You will be given a Zaku I Black Tri-Stars Custom for this mission.
This series of missions are pretty darned easy, and having a high
Mobility attribute will make it even easier. When you begin the mission
you will exit a passage into the spaceport. You must pick up and move
crates by locking on to them and pressing Square to use the special
action. There are nine crates that are arranged in a 3x3 square at the
back of the room directly to your right when you start the mission.
Pick up one of the crates and move forward out of the space dock, where
you will have to drop the crate off in a green square area outside of a
Papua supply ship. There will be a ton of distractions and hazards
moving around the spaceport, so try not to hit them. There will be a
huge mechanical claw-arm moving about the space port, as well as the
constant launching and landing of Gattle attack fighters, and a Musai
will be doing patrol runs outside the space port. Avoid hitting any of
them because they will slow you down and damage you if you collide with
them. Do not use your Boost while carrying a crate or you will drop it!
Just move normally to the area and press the Square button again to
toss the crate into the green area. You will hear a feint "bwoop" noise
if the crate is properly deposited in the green area. You can also use
one of the two launch catapults on the floor of the launch deck to
launch you out of the fortress. Just be careful around the right
catapult because a Gattle will often fly in front of it, so you will
crash into it if you try to use the catapult. To use the catapults to
your advantage just move in front of it and after a few seconds it will
shoot forward, taking you outside much faster than you could normally
move on your own. Once you have dropped off the crate you were carrying
quickly boost back to the spaceport, get another crate and head back to
the Papua. You must deliver at least five crates in the mission's
three-minute time limit to complete it successfully.

alone. You get to select your own unit, so you can take what ever you
want. The primary enemies will be squads of three RB-79 Balls, or one
RB-79 Ball accompanied by a RB-79 Ball K Type. They shouldn't be much
of a problem; I mean they're just Balls. After destroying about ten
Balls, a few RGM-79 GMs armed with Beam Spray guns will start to appear
intermittently along with the groups of Balls and Ball K Types. You

You're back behind enemy lines. Man, what do you do to get yourself
into this kind of trouble? Again you get to select your unit and weapon
to take into combat, so be sure to choose wisely. There's still a ton
of Federation units gunning for you, and they are much more powerful
then they were in the Two-Star mission. Initial enemies consist of
quite a few RB-79 Balls and a few RGM-79 GM armed with Beam Spray Guns.
As the mission progresses several RGM-79GS GM Command with Beam Guns
and RGM-79SP GM Sniper II toting Sniper Rifles will start to arrive.
The GM Snipers are very deadly, as their Sniper Rifles can chip away
large chunks of health quickly and precisely. It is best to challenge
the GM Sniper IIs in close combat. After you destroy about forty
enemies the mission will end.

alone, kind of like you had to do in the last three missions with the
same exact name. Coincidence? You get to select your own unit, so you
can take what ever you want. Choose wisely, because the enemy units
have gotten so much more powerful this time around. The initial enemies
will be squads of RB-79K Ball K Types. Soon after, a few RGM-79GS GM
Commands with Beam Guns will begin to swarm the area. After a few more
kills you will start to have RGM-79SP GM Sniper II's with Sniper Rifles
thrown at you. The GM Sniper II's are as deadly as ever, but to make
matters worse towards the end a few RX-77-2 Guncannons with Custom Beam
Rifles (Guncannon) and even a single FA-78-1 Gundam Full Armor Type
will attack you. You have to survive while destroying the enemies.

Oh dear... Much like the reality show of similar namesake, the
Survival mission rears its ugly head yet again, and it doesn't help
that its last incarnation has been made even tougher by forcing your
ass into a randomly selected unit. Cross your fingers and hope for
something decent, because the enemy units aren't about to let up on
you. The initial enemies will be squads of RB-79K Ball K Types. Soon

|1.20 - Complete the mission with a Score of 60,000 or higher. |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
The Battle of Loum is one of the easiest missions in the game
because all you do is wreck battle ships with little to measly
resistance. You get to select your own unit for the One-Star version of
this mission. You must stop the Earth Federation Forces from crossing
through the battlefield and escaping for the mission's three minute
duration. If more than one Federation battleship is able to leave the
battlefield you will FAIL the mission, so by no means are you to let
any of the Federation battleships try to break through. Totally ignore
the Public and FF-S3 Saberfish fighters and just target the
battleships! When you begin the mission there will already be two
Salamis battleships and one Magellan battleship moving forward. One
Salamis will be coming up the left flank, while another Salamis comes
up the right, and the Magellan comes up the middle. The Salamis
traveling up on your left will be the closest, so it should be your
first target. It will fire homing missiles at you as you approach from
the front, so be sure to barrel roll out of the way because those
missiles sure do smart if they hit. Take out that first Salamis, and
then go get the next Salamis. Ignore the Magellan coming through the
center of the mission area for now, as it is further back then the
Salamis. Speed over to the right side of the battlefield and take out
the Salamis, and then head back towards the center and take out that
Magellan. After the previous three battleships are destroyed, single
Salamis battleships will begin to charge through the battlefield one at
a time. Destroy the Salamis cruisers as they come. Let no ship escape!
After twenty-five seconds your ally will radio in. Go ahead and take
him so he can destroy the Saberfish and Publics that have been mobbing
you. After the mission's three minute time limit is ended, the mission
itself will end.

Just like last time, you must stop the Earth Federation forces from
crossing through the battlefield and escaping for the missions three
minute duration. This time the game has chosen to stick you with a Zaku
II with a Zaku Machinegun. If more than one Federation battleship is
able to leave the battlefield you will FAIL the mission, so by no means
are you to let any of the Federation battleships try to break through.
Totally ignore the Public and FF-S3 Saberfish fighters and just target
the battleships! When you begin the mission there will already be two
Salamis battleships and one Magellan battleship moving forward. One
Salamis will be coming up the left flank, while another Salamis comes
up the right, and the Magellan comes up the middle. The Salamis
traveling up on your left will be the closest, so it should be your
first target. It will fire homing missiles at you as you approach from
the front, so be sure to barrel roll out of the way because those
missiles sure do smart if they hit. Take out that first Salamis, and
then go get the next Salamis. Ignore the Magellan coming through the
center of the mission area for now, as it is further back then the
Salamis. Speed over to the right side of the battlefield and take out
the Salamis, and then head back towards the center and take out that
Magellan. After the previous three battleships are destroyed, single
Salamis battleships will begin to charge through the battlefield one at
a time. Destroy the Salamis cruisers as they come. Let no ship escape!
After twenty-five seconds your ally in a Zaku II will radio in. Go
ahead and take him so he can destroy the Saberfish and Publics that
will be pestering you. After the mission's three minute time limit is
ended, the mission itself will end.

The return of the revenge of the Battle of Loum! This mission is as
easy as ever, but this time they have armed your Zaku II a Zaku Bazooka
in place of the Zaku Machinegun that it had toted for the last two Loum
missions. The Zaku Bazooka tends to run out of ammo quickly, so make
use of your lock-on to cut ammo expenditure. As always, you must stop
the Earth Federation forces from crossing through the battlefield and
escaping for the missions three minute duration. If more than one

This mission has gotten a bit more difficult. The Saberfish fighters
will come after you viciously, and they are much more accurate and
capable of doing much more damage to you. With that said it's still a
fairly simple mission when compared to most other 4-Star missions. You
are again thrown in a Zaku II with a Zaku Bazooka, and again you must
stop the Earth Federation forces from crossing through the battlefield
and escaping for the mission's three minute duration. If more than one

This mission has gotten a bit more difficult, not because the
Saberfish fighters are anymore mean-spirited than last time, but
because you are now in a weaker unit: a Zaku I with a Zaku Bazooka.
This is still pretty much the damned easiest 5-Star mission in this
game. It is again up to you to stop the Earth Federation forces from
crossing through the battlefield and escaping for the missions three
minute duration. If more than one Federation battleship is able to

You get the option to choose your own unit for this mission. The
Operation British missions rival the Battle of Loum missions for being
the easiest damn missions in the game. You get to wreck the crap out of
more near defenseless Feddie Salamis battleships. There will be three
Public fighters in the area at the beginning of the mission, and a few
Saberfish will be launched in later, but they are a minor nuisance at
the worst. Just ignore the space fighters and take out those
battleships. You have a three minute time limit in which you must
destroy a certain number of battleships. If you do not destroy enough
battleships before the three minutes are up, then you will have failed
the mission. After twenty-five seconds your ally, in a Zaku II, will
radio in. Call him in to keep those Saberfish and Public off your tail.
After you destroy three enemy battleships the mission will end in
victory. Victory is a good thing!

This mission is just as easy as the One-Star version of Operation

This mission is still easy as heck. You have again been provided
with a Zaku II armed with a Zaku Machinegun for this incarnation of the
Operation British mission. The enemy fighters will have become slightly
more skilled, but they are still pushovers. This mission has a three
minute time limit to destroy your quota of battleships. If you do not
destroy enough battleships before the three minute time limit expires
you will fail the mission. After twenty-five seconds your ally, Gadem
in a Zaku I, will radio in asking if you want assistance, so accept his

This mission has become a bit more difficult. The Saberfish and
Public pilots must have found the cans of Whoop-ass in their rations
because these guys are actually out to get you with a vengeance in this
incarnation of Operation British. That aside it's still pretty much the
same old mission, but now you are stuck with a Zaku II with a Zaku
Bazooka in lieu of the Zaku Machinegun you've had in the last few
missions. The Zaku Bazooka may be more powerful, but it doesn't have
nearly as much ammo, so be conservative in your attacks and multi-lock
so you don't waste ammo. This mission still has a three minute time
limit where you must destroy your quota of Federation battleships. If
you do not destroy enough battleships before the three minute time
limit expires you will fail the mission. After twenty-five seconds your

pilots can really be anyway. To boot you are now in a Zaku I, which is

Unlike the other two Zeon Balanced (Tri-Color) missions, Pezun
Numbers tends to be TERRIBLY DIFFICULT! Just giving you some fair
warning in advance. Now, the One-Star version isn't so bad, just don't
expect a cakewalk like with the other Zeon Balanced (Tri-Color)
missions. You get to play with a fairly powerful Galbaldy a for this
mission, so you've already been provided with a pretty good suit.
Initial enemy forces consists of three RB-79K Ball K Types, and three
Salamis battleships further away. When 15 seconds have passed your ally
will radio in for back up, so call him in to help you trash your foes.
Destroy the three Ball K's and enemy reinforcements will arrive in the
form of another two Ball K Types and one RGM-79GS GM Command wielding a
Beam Gun. After those enemies are destroyed another group will attack.
This third unit consists of a Ball K Type, a GM Command, and an RGM-
79SP GM Sniper II with a Sniper Rifle. Destroy those last few enemies
and that will be the end of that; just destroy the three Salamis
battleships and the mission will end.

You get to toy around in an Action Zaku this time. The Act Zaku
possesses a better beam rifle then the Galbaldy a, but you are stuck
with a lousy heat tomahawk as a melee weapon instead of the beam saber
the Galbaldy a is issued so it kind of balances out I guess. Initial
enemies are three RB-79K Ball K Types, and three Salamis battleships
further away. Your backup in a Galbaldy a will radio in at around 15
seconds, so call him in to help you deal with the enemies. After the
three Ball K's are destroyed you will get attacked by one RGM-79GS GM
command with a Beam Gun and two more Ball K Types. After they are
destroyed the final enemy detachment will consist of one another GM
Command and two RGM-79SP GM Sniper II's with Sniper Rifles. GM Sniper
II's are perhaps one of the most vicious deadly units in the game. In
this low difficulty they may not pose much of a problem, but learn to
fear them and destroy them with maximum aggression. After they are
destroyed just destroy the three Salamis battleships and the mission
will end.

It's time for Pezun Number Four-Star!!! Things have seriously heated
up, as the enemies are now noticeably much tougher. You're back in the

To all those who attempt this mission, good luck. Pezun Numbers
Five-Star is tough. It's tough as hell! It makes grown men cry... Well
only really girly men... But still it's tough! You have been cast into
an Action Zaku yet again, which sucks for this mission because its
melee capabilities aren't as good as the Galbaldy a's are. Stupid heat
tomahawks... And melee is exactly what you are going to want to use to
nip the damned GM Snipers in this mission in the bud, because their
sniper rifles will chew holes through your health. At the start of the
mission there will already be three Salamis battleships and one RGM-
79GS GM Command with a Beam Gun and two RB-79K Ball K Types in the
area. After 15 seconds in the mission, your Galbaldy a ally will radio
in, so accept his help 'cause you're gonna need it! After the two Ball
K Types and GM Command are destroyed the real mayhem will start. One GM
Command, one RGM-79SP GM Sniper II, RB-79K Ball K Type. The GM Sniper
II's are as deadly as ever, so be sure to take it out as soon as
possible. Try to stun it with a blast from your beam rifle, and then
zoom it and melee it to death while it is incapacitated. After those
enemies are destroyed another GM Sniper II and two more GM Commands
will arrive. Trash those three and then two GM Sniper II's and one more
GM Command will attack you. Waste those Feddie mobile suits and then
it's just up to you to destroy those three Salamis battleships. Take
care when approaching the battleships from the front because they will
fire those annoying homing missiles. After the three Salamis are
destroyed the mission will end... Whew!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
"So how the heck do I create a quad-50 pilot anyway?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's inevitable. Everybody wants to be the best so I know you all
will demand to know how to create a pilot with all 50's for stats
(a.k.a.: the coveted quad-fifty). Well I will tell you straight up, it
IS possible. You can create a pilot in Mission Mode with quad-50's for
his statistics. I will go even further to tell you that it IS possible
to create a quad-50 pilot with the special ability Newtype Level 3. But
here's where the optimism fades. Getting a quad-50 character is
difficult. I'll say that again and capitalize the important words to
let it sink in. Getting a quad-50 character is DIFFICULT! It is
INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT! It takes skill to complete every mission in a
weak unit and get the 1.50 special bonus multiplier, which usually
means you CANNOT TAKE ANY DAMAGE or you must finish the mission in a
ridiculously small window of time. But it takes luck as well. You have
to be lucky enough to get cheap units in random selection, and lucky
enough to get the good missions that you need in a decent order. So not
only is it DIFFICULT, but you don't even have full control over all of
the factors that will get you the quad-50. It took me well over forty
tries before I finally got everything right.
So what do you need to start with? Well, first of all you NEED to
have unlocked both the Core Fighter and Core Fighter II units so you
access to both units that offer a 1.90 Unit Bonus. This is most easily
done in a game where no other Federation units, besides the Core
Fighter and Core Fighter II, have been unlocked because the pool to
draw random units from will be much smaller. This will give you a
better chance of getting one of the Core Fighters in a mission with
random unit selection.
What kind of pilot do you have to start with? Well the pilot has to
be an Earth Federation pilot because it is not possible to get a quad-
50 Zeon pilot due to the Zeon mission tree setup. Your pilot
absolutely, positively, definitely NEEDS to start with the special
ability Test Pilot to reduce the consumption of Pilot experience
points, otherwise you will NEVER have anywhere near enough Pilot
experience points to make a quad-50 pilot. You also need that pilot to
start with a -10 in either the Shooting or the Mobility attributes
since those statistics are the most costly to invest in. So combing all
of those requirements we discover that we need to select an Earth
Federation Space Force pilot with Voice Type B and just keep trying and
trying until your pilot starts with this exact profile:
Shoot: -10 Fight: -20
Guard: -20 Mobility: -20
Special Skills:
Test Pilot
So that is the pilot set up you need, so next are the missions. What
missions do you need? What unit's to take? Well first things first you
must take all Balanced (Tri-Colored) missions or you just won't have
enough points to do diddly squat. You can not lose any missions, but
you knew that right? You must try to get the special 1.50 bonus
multiplier in EVERY mission, or at least the vast majority of them. And
of course just hope that you get the missions that are worth it, and
get the low cost units to get low unit multipliers. Oh, and stay the
hell away from the Reconnaissance of Granada mission until further
notice. That mission, besides being extremely difficult, offers
absolutely lousy unit multipliers. But let's discuss in depth.
Mission #1

This will be your first mission. It will be a One-Star mission of
course. Remember to take Balanced missions only! You may see any of the
three One-Star Balanced missions but the only mission you want here is
the Battle of Loum. The other two One-Star Balanced missions Capture
the Fortress, and Reconnaissance of Granada, both force you to take the
Full Armor Gundam, which offers an abysmal 1.26 unit bonus. If you do
not see the One-Star Battle of Loum as your choice for a Balanced
mission than quit and start over.
The One-Star Battle of Loum is the first mission you should hope you
get. Unlike Capture the Fortress and Reconnaissance of Granada, Battle
of Loum allows you to select your own unit, which means you can select
the Core Fighter or Core Fighter II to get the coveted 1.90 unit
multiplier. Now it is just a matter of being fast enough to destroy the
one Chivvay and two Musai battleships in less than one minute to get
the 1.50 special multiplier. Destroy the first Musai, then speed over
to the Chivvay and destroy it, and them continue to the next Musai and
destroy it. After the three space cruisers have been destroyed the
mission will end.
Mission #2
----------
For your second mission you have a choice in which Balanced Two-Star
difficulty mission you should try for. Again, DO NOT take the
Reconnaissance of Granada, as it is still offering a powerful suit with
a low unit multiplier. Now if you are feeling lucky you could take the
Two-Star Capture the Fortress, which offers a random unit selection. If
you are lucky and get something like the Core Fighter or Core Fighter
II with the 1.90 multiplier, and you also get an additional .20 tacked
on (for having your unit chosen randomly), you end up with a 2.10 unit
multiplier. Very nice! You could also end up seeing the Two-Star Battle
of Loum. This mission will automatically put you in a FF-S3 Saberfish,
which offers a 1.80 multiplier. That's really good, but not as good as
you could possibly get with Capture the Fortress.
I suggest taking the Battle of Loum, because you are assured to get
the 1.80 multiplier, where as the random selection in Capture the
Fortress could mess you up. But of course the choice is yours. If you
play the Battle of Loum, just do it like last time. Destroy the Musai
and Chivvays in less than one minute to get the 1.50 special
multiplier.
If you do take the Two-Star Capture the Fortress, and you actually
get a really good unit, you must survive the three-minute time limit
without taking any damage what-so-ever to get the 1.50 special
multiplier. This is most easily done by just running away from the
enemies for the missions entire three minute duration.
Mission #3
----------
After completing your Two-Star mission it is now on to bigger
things: Your first Three-Star mission. If the only Three-Star mission
is Reconnaissance of Granada start over, as luck has turned against
you. Do NOT take Reconnaissance of Granada! The mission you want to see
is the Three-Star version of Capture the Fortress. This mission will
let you select your own unit, so it's time to take out your Core
Fighter or Core Fighter II. Just avoid the three enemies and run for
the entire three minutes that the mission will last. Avoid taking any
damage for the mission's three-minute time limit and you get the 1.50
special multiplier.
Missions #4 and 5
-----------------
With your Three-Star mission under your belt, it is now time to kick
it into high gear. This is where things get tough(er). Now it's time
for your first Four-Star mission. You will have to take two Four-Star
missions total, which will account for your fourth and fifth missions.
Whatever the hell you do, just don't take Reconnaissance of Granada!
You will want to see both Capture the Fortress or Battle of Loum in no
particular order. There isn't much preference as to which of the two
you'll need to take as you'll have to take them both either way, so
just do it in whatever order they come down the pike in.
Battle of Loum is much tougher here with the arrival of several Zaku
I's to attack your poor Saberfish. Although on the bright side the time
limit has been extended to make up for all the additional ships you
must destroy to complete the mission. You're still stuck in a Saberfish
fighter and have to tear up a bunch of Zeon battleships... like always.
Just complete it in under 1:30 to get the 1.50 special multiplier.
Capture the Fortress is much more basic, just with tougher enemies.
Unit selection is totally up to you so take a Core Fighter or Core
Fighter II to get the almighty 1.90 unit multiplier. Then it's just up
to you to run like hell and survive for the mission's three minute
duration without taking any damage for the 1.50 bonus multiplier.
Missions #6, 7, and 8
---------------------
And with that last Four-Star mission done it is time for complete
and unmitigated hell: All three Five-Star missions. Yes, even
Reconnaissance of Granada will get played here. It doesn't matter what
order you play them in. It just matters that you beat them all, and
beat them well. It doesn't matter what order you play them in, 'cause
you have to play them all anyway, so in no particular order here are
the Five-Star missions that you're going to have to play:
The Battle of Loum will have to get played, and it is tough as nails
with plenty of mobile suits flying around in its Five-Star incarnation.
You are still in a Saberfish, and have even more battleships to
destroy. Waste them all in less than one minute and thirty seconds for
the 1.50 bonus multiplier.
Of course the Capture the Fortress Five-Star will be played here.
This mission throws a really nasty curveball your way because the unit
selection is Random. That SUCKS! I mean you get the extra .20 tagged
onto the unit bonus of whatever junk heap they slap you with, but
nonetheless if you get something bad ass (like even a low end Gundam)
it could blow this entire journey into the realm of futility. Hope and
pray for a Core Fighter or a Core Fighter II, or at the least a
Saberfish, or Public to take advantage of their high speed and
maneuverability. Dread getting a Ball or Ball K Type because they will
probably be easy pickings with their lousy mobility. As long as you
don't get anything quasi-powerful you should be fine, so just go the
entire three minute duration of the mission without getting hit to get
the 1.50 unit multiplier.
**After completing your second Five-Star Tri-Colored mission you will
automatically earn the special ability Mood Maker. Nice!**
And hopefully last, and most definitely least, the grueling
experience known as Reconnaissance of Granada must get done sooner or
later. This will be a tough-ass mission because you are stuck in a
shabby ol' GM. A plain GM with a plain Beam Spray Gun against hordes of
Action Zakus and a Braw Bro and Elmeth mobile armors, not to mention
the Chivvay battleship that will be there as well. Destroy all of the
enemies and the mission will end. If you complete the mission in less
than one minute and forty-five seconds and you will get the 1.50
special multiplier.
So that's it. That's basically the mission layout. So let's crunch
some raw numbers. You must have started with this profile:
Shoot: -10 Fight: -20
Guard: -20 Mobility: -20
Special Skills:
Test Pilot
And follow the above mission paths to get enough points. Here's the
basic math formula if absolutely everything goes PERFECT.
60 x 1.50 x 1.90 = 171 (* Battle of Loum in Core Fighter)
90 x 1.50 x 2.10 = 283 (** Capture the Fortress in Core Fighter II)
140 x 1.50 x 1.90 = 399 (*** Capture the Fortress in Core Fighter II)
210 x 1.50 x 1.80 = 567 (**** Battle of Loum in Saberfish)
210 x 1.50 x 1.90 = 598 (**** Capture the Fortress in CoreFighterII)
300 x 1.50 x 1.80 = 810 (***** Battle of Loum in Saberfish)
300 x 1.50 x 1.48 = 666 (***** Reconnaissance of Granada in GM)
+ 300 x 1.50 x 2.10 = 945 (***** Capture the Fortress in Core Fighter)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
4,439 total Pilot, Mind, and Body points
(PILOT) (MIND) (BODY)
4439 4439 4439
RAISE SHOOT TO 50
4349 4339 ---- (-10 to 0)
4154 4189 ---- (01 to 15)

349 1789 839 (31 to 50)
BUY NEWTYPE 1, NEWTYPE 2, AND NEWTYPE 3
---- 1489 ---- (Newtype 1)
---- 1039 ---- (Newtype 2)
- ---- 389 ---- (Newtype 3)
______________________________________________
349 389 839
So there we go! If you have everything go smashingly perfect you can
create a Quad-50 Pilot with Newtype 3 and still have 349 Pilot points,
389 Mind points, and 839 Body points remaining so you'll still have
enough experience points left over to spend on a few more special
abilities! Now granted the chances of getting a Core Fighter or Core
Fighter II on both random missions is slim, but if you take the Two-
Star Battle of Loum instead of the Two-Star Capture the Fortress you
will still be able to make the Quad-50 pilot. You will end up with a
total of 4,390 Pilot, Mind, and Body points which is just a 40 point
loss. [90 x 1.50 x 1.80 = 243 (** Battle of Loum in Saberfish)] You
will still be able to get all of your attributes to 50 and buy into
Newtype 3, you just won't have as many points remaining in the end.
So let's see what that final profile would look like:
Shoot: 50 Fight: 50
Guard: 50 Mobility: 50
Special Skills:
Test Pilot / Mood Maker / NT 3
Beautiful. Just beautiful! Good luck to you if you've got the grapes
to pull this off. If you actually do it congratulations, for you are
truly an ace pilot.

[========================|S-Rank Scores List|=========================]
/ \------------------/ \
Well, here is the list of minimum scores needed to obtain an S-Rank
in each of the missions in the game. You get points by blowing stuff
up, of course, and then you also get bonus points at the end of the
mission depending on if (or how many times) you were destroyed and
choose to retry a mission.
Number of Retries Bonus Points
----------------- --------------
Zero Retries 35,000
One Retry 23,000
Two Retries 15,000
Three Retries 10,000
Four Retries 5,000
Five or more NONE
So there you go. If you want more bonus points just kill more and
die less! There are also tricks to squeeze every last point out of some
missions. Destroying debris or asteroids floating through space, or
shooting down missiles will earn some easy points. Target and wreck
individual sections of battleships, such as the bridge, individual gun
turrets, or engines for extra points before destroying the entire
battleship. You also can get many more points by "over-killing"
battleships by continuing to attack them after they have been
destroyed; this will cause the battleship wreck to explode again,
earning you thousands more points. You can destroy the shield of any
mobile suit carrying one for a couple hundred more points as well.
Also, never destroy any friendly units, as you will be hit with a very
large negative penalty (about -5,000 points) to your score if you do.
So let's hit you with the digits. Here are the scores needed to get
those S-Ranks so you can unlock all kinds of cool bonus swag! Hop to
it!
