=====================
= I. Introduction =
=====================

Short and to the point; this guide is intended to catalog anything non-obvious
in SRWMX, from the point of view of the non-Japanese player. My translations
and understandings of how things work are bound to be flawed, so please don't
hesitate to correct me using the address at the bottom of this guide. Sending
along new information would also be very nice.

Version 1.1 Changes:
* Gattai - Removed Double Haken Storm; thanks to RokkumanRaito
* Units - Added MP and Black Great; thanks to everyone on the SRWMX board

=====================
= IV. Secret Units =
=====================

Dijeh SE-R
----------
The Dijeh SE-R is a variation model from Amuro's unit in Z Gundam. To obtain
it, have the Gundam ZZ team (Judo, Reccoa, Mondo, Elle, Puru, PuruTsuu, Beecha,
and Ino) have an average level of 25 before the beginning of chapter 23.

Mass-Produced Great Mazinger
----------------------------
In Chapter 38 (when playing in order from top to bottom), if Boss is sortied,
he will make a short speech. After this, if Boss makes the killing blow to
an MP Great, it will be warped away and added to your arsenal after the
intermission.

Black Great
-----------
There is still debate on the exact method required to obtain the Black Great
Mazinger robot, but it's believed now that Tetsuya (the regular pilot of Great)
must have more than 50 kills by the end of Chapter 45. Obtaining the MP Great
first may or may not have something to do with this; there are still widely
varying reports.

======================
= V. Secret Weapons =
======================

Z Gundam: Waverider Assault
---------------------------
The Z Gundam gains this attack simply by having Kamille pilot it.

============================
= VI. Underhanded Tactics =
============================

Repair/Resupply
---------------
Units that can repair or resupply others gain experience for each of these
activities. Given that units will use up energy each turn while airborne,
they can be resupplied indefinitely, and if a solitary enemy with a low attack
power is left on the map, it can be "used" to constantly drain a unit's HP,
which can then be repaired right back. The same thing can be done with MAP
attacks, which, unlike Alpha 2, can be used regardless of whether or not there
are enemy units within range. As there are no penalties for taking massive
amounts of turns on a map, it's possible to upgrade pilots in these kinds of
units to level 99 on the first map they appear. (NOTE: Some players have
reported bugs with a Level 99 Vega returning to Level 1, so be forewarned!)

Game Over
---------
After getting a "Game Over" in any chapter, the chapter will restart from the
beginning, but carrying over all experience and money gained over the
course of the chapter. This can be repeated indefinitely to power up needed
units as much as possible.
