| 1. Introduction |
+-----------------+
Hello, and welcome to my very first FAQ. With the recent translation of
Super Robot Wars 3 by Aeon Genesis (
http://agtp.romhack.net), there is a need
for good FAQ's covering every aspect of this awesome game. With that in mind,
I present my very own Mecha stats FAQ!
So, what's this for, exactly?
-----------------------------
Basically intended as a quick reference, you can read about and compare data
on every playable mech in the game. Very useful if you want to compare the
Dijeh to the Alex without having to navigate the menus and remember all of
the stats!
What won't I find here?
-----------------------
Well, a walkthrough is one main thing you won't see here. If that's what
you're looking for, I suggest you check out Carlos Satoshi Mori's guide at
www.gamefaqs.com. It's an excellent piece of work, containing both a
walkthrough and a chart showing how to access the various mission paths.
How is this thing organized?
---------------------------
I've broken the meat of this guide into three parts:
Mecha Info:
Contains in-depth info and stats on a machine's performance and attacks, as
well as my personal rating and comments.
Arrival List:
Tells you during what missions you can expect to obtain certain mechs.
Comparison Chart:
A quick and easy way of comparing the various mechs by their stats.
And so, without further ado, on with the show!
+--------------+
| 2. Stat Info |
+--------------+
So, what do all these numbers and values mean, exactly? Well, look below to
find out!
HP: The amount of Health Points a particular machine has remaining. When
this reaches zero, the mech "explodes", and is taken out of action
until the next battle.
EN: The amount of Energy a machine has left. In addition to powering some
weapons, mechs moving through space or flying on earth use 1 energy
unit per square moved. Some special items, such as I-Fields, also
drain from your energy reserves.
Type: A machine's preferred environment. The possible values are Sky,
Land, Sea, or Space. Some mechs have multiple types (i.e. P-Getta 1's
is both Sky and Land).
Adapt: Semi-related to Type, Adaptability rates a machine's ability to
battle on the four terrain types with a scale from 1-7, with 7 being
best.
Range: How many squares a machine can move on clear terrain in one turn.
Moving through forests and asteroids is harder, requiring two
movement points. Moving through a mountain range costs three points.
Armor: The unit's defensive rating. The higher the number, the less damage
you take from attacks.
+---------------+
| 3. Mecha Info |
+---------------+
Below you will find comprehensive info on all of the playable mechs in the
game, including their attacks. You will also notice a rating on a scale of
1-5 for each unit. This is just my personal assessment of how useful each
machine is at various points in the game. Roughly, Early is missions 1-20,
Mid 20-40, and Late 40-end. If a period has no rating (--), it means you
can't/won't have that mech at that time. Finally, concerning mechs with
different forms and story based upgrades (ones you don't pay for): I've
listed all different forms separately, and marked all story based upgrades
with a tilde(~).
+--- Alex ----------------------+---------------------------------------------+
| | HP: 1700 Adaptability Rating |
| Pilot: Chris McKenzie | EN: 120 Sky: 5 Early: *** |

| Beam Rifle 7| 7| -| 7 ---/--- 650 4 100 10 |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
While not a bad Gundam, the Alex really has trouble staying alive with it's
low HP and armor. It also lacks any really powerful attacks... at least
Chris is a pretty good pilot. I would find something else for her to use
(like the Kaempfer) relatively quickly.
+--- Aphrodite A ---------------+---------------------------------------------+
| | HP: 2000 Adaptability Rating |
| Pilot: Sayaka Kyuu | EN: 160 Sky: 1 Early: **** |

| Missile 7| 7| 7| 7 ---/--- 600 4 100 10 |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Very useful, if for no other reason then that it allows you to heal your
mechs without docking them. It's attacks aren't too shabby, but don't expect
to make very many quick kills with the Aphrodite. It is later replaced by
Dianan A.
+--- Argamma -------------------+---------------------------------------------+
| | HP: 4000 Adaptability Rating |
| Pilot: Bright Noa | EN: 255 Sky: 7 Early: **** |

| Hypermega Part. Can. (ALL) 7| 7| 7| 7 150/--- 1500 7 80 -- |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Basically an upgraded White Base, the Argamma retains it's predecessor's
best attacks while adding in a very useful ALL (hits all units in it's path)
attack. It is uni-directional, however, and will toast your own units just
as much as the bad guys, so be cautious when using it.
+--- Battle Craft --------------+---------------------------------------------+

them in their separated form much, so don't worry about their abysmal stats.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
MUCH more then the sum of it's parts, the Combattler is an incredibly
versatile mech, able to dish out the pain on almost any terrain. While you
probably won't find a use for many of it's attacks, it's still nice to have
them, just in case... add in the fact that it can take a decent amount of
punishment before folding, and you have a force to be reckoned with.
+--- Dijeh SE-R ----------------+---------------------------------------------+
| | HP: 2200 Adaptability Rating |

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
One of my very favorite mechs, the Dijeh is useful from the moment you get
your hands on it. It has high life points, excellent movement range, a high
response threshold, and excellent long-ranged capabilities, making it the
perfect mech for Amuro until the Nu Gundam arrives. I would recommend an
armor upgrade when you first get it, but other then that, it will be fine
until you have some more spare cash to sink into it.
+--- Getta 1 -------------------+---------------------------------------------+
| | HP: 2800 Adaptability Rating |

| Abilities: Replaced | Type: Sky/Lnd Land: 5 Mid: *** |

| Getta Beam 7| 6| -| 7 15/--- 1050 1 100 -- |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Ahh... That's more like it :) The Getta Robo is much more powerful then the
P-Getta, making this a really useful mech, at least initially. Enemies really
like to target it, however, so by the middle of the game it's a challenge to
keep the thing alive. It's eventually replaced by the Getta Robo G, but
that's a ways off...
+--- Getta 2 -------------------+---------------------------------------------+
| | HP: 2800 Adaptability Rating |
| Pilot: Hyato Kami | EN: 150 Sky: 3 Early: **** |
| Abilities: Replaced | Type: Lnd/Sub Land: 7 Mid: *** |

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Getta Arm -| 7| 6| 7 ---/--- 600 1 130 -- |
| Getta Drill -| 7| 6| 7 ---/--- 700 1 120 -- |
| Drill Storm -| 7| 6| - 5/--- 800 2 100 -- |
| Drill Punch 4| 7| 6| 7 ---/--- 850 3 100 4 |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Again, much more useful then the P-Getta, especially since you have this on
Earth and can take advantage of it's burrowing capabilities. It's high
movement range is also a plus.
+--- Getta 3 -------------------+---------------------------------------------+
| | HP: 2800 Adaptability Rating |
| Pilot: Musashi Tomoe | EN: 520 Sky: 1 Early: **** |
| Abilities: Replaced | Type: Amphib Land: 6 Mid: *** |

| Blizzard -| 6| 7| - ---/--- 1480 1 145 -- |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
One of the only amphibious mechs you'll ever have, the Getta 3 is useful for
it's resiliency and it's powerful Blizzard attack. When you need to hold off
a wave of aquatic units, this mech gets the job done nicely.
+--- Getter Q ------------------+---------------------------------------------+

Not that bad, but nothing like the Getta 1 in terms of it's capabilities.
Like the Texas Mack, it doesn't actually join your crew, but you get to
control it during some special missions.

Ugh. One of the absolute worst units in the game, even the enemy's Dra-C's
are preferable to these. Under-powered from the start (just like in the
show), they're only useful against Zakus and Dra-Cs. Everything else can
blow them away in one hit. Use as cannon fodder or to finish off severely
weakened units.

Not bad, as far as Gundams go. While not really a stand-out in any one
category, it's nice balance and decent offense make it a nice supplement to
your fledgling army. After you head back to space, it's "replaced" by the
GP-01 FV (Full Vernian).
+--- Guncannon -----------------+---------------------------------------------+

Not a terrible unit, especially early on, when it's some of the only decent
artillery you'll have. As the game progresses, it's low stats and lack of any
truly powerful weaponry (no megaparticle cannon) limit it's usefulness. Sell
them for cash when you have some decent replacements, in the form of the
Dijeh and the Z Gundam.
+--- Gundam --------------------+---------------------------------------------+
| | HP: 1500 Adaptability Rating |

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
While not as powerful as the Mazinger Z, the Gundam is an extremely useful
mech in the early game, especially with Amuro as its pilot. It has a nice
mix of short and long range attacks, making Gundam a very versatile jack-of-
all trades. However, as the game progresses, its low life points and armor
make it too susceptible to attacks, so I would recommend transferring Amuro
to the Dijeh as soon as you get it and relegate Gundam to a secondary role
with an average pilot.

Just as the name implies, it's a new and improved Gundam. however, it tends
to stay ahead of the curve a bit better then the original in terms usefulness
later in the game. If you have it, it can also combine with the G-Defensor,
further increasing it's long term usefulness.

A nice "supplementary" unit, as the game doesn't give you 20+ super mechs ;)
While not a great sniping unit, it's large movement range and nifty attacks
make up for this shortcoming handily. Also note that it's Panzer Faust has
an efficiency rating of 7 on all terrain, even underwater! It's hard to find
a land mech with such good all around capabilities, so put a good pilot in
it, and you won't be disappointed. Personally, I prefer Chris McKenzie after
the Alex outlives it's usefulness, but that's just me...

An excellent mech in all senses of the word. Initially, it's only weakness
is a general lack of mobility, but it's made up for by it's excellent short
range fighting capabilities and high defense. Also, you receive an upgrade
for it about mid way through, making it a flying mech and negating it's only
downside, aside from a slight lack of good ranged attacks. Upgraded
regularly, it will see you through the entire game.

Not terrible, but not spectacular, either. The only thing that raises this
mech above most others is the Repair Equipment ability, which is extremely
useful during all stages of the game. It can also transform into flight mode,
making it that much easier to service badly damaged mechs. Unfortunately,
it's not very strong either offensively or defensively, and enemies really
like to target it, for some reason...

The flight mode of the Methuss. Not many changes, but the 3 extra movement
points are nice. You loose the beam sabre attack, though.

Much better then it's predecessor, the GM. Use it like an improved version
of that MS; finish off weak units, snipe melee mechs, clean up odds and
ends, etc. etc... don't expect it to stay useful for too long, though, as it
will be out-classed rather quickly.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Merely a stand-in until you get your hands on an actual Getta Robo, the
Proto Getta is still pretty useful. Don't bother with the other forms, as
they both stink in space, which is the only place you have this mech.

It has some nice ranged attacks, but that's pretty much it. Add that to
the fact that it has the aesthetic appeal of a worn out cowboy-boot with a
tie-dye paint job, and you have one mediocre mech. Fortunately, like the
Getter Q, it doesn't actually join your crew, but you get to control it
during some special missions.

Really nice, seeing it's your only way of repairing and refueling your units
en masse. It's long ranged attacks are also useful, but Bright isn't exactly
a crack shot, so don't expect to connect every time. It's armor is also a
little on the low side, but it's high life points help balance that out...
Don't worry too much about it, as it will be replaced by the Argamma before
too long.

One of the most useful mid-game Gundams. Incredibly versatile, it boasts
excellent mid and long range sniping capabilities, made all the more useful
by the fact that Kamiyu (Camille in every other translation I know of, go
figure) is an excellent shot. It can also be used for the occasional beam
sabre kill without too much concern about it getting blown away. With armor,
energy, and HP upgrades, it will be useful for a good long time.

An interesting idea, but lacking in usefulness because of it's shortage of
decent land attacks. Still, it's a rare amphibious mech, and better then a
Nemo, so it's useful at least initially.

| 4. Arrival List |
+-----------------+
Just a simple list of how and when each mech joins your team, ordered as
chronologically as possible. Because of the various branching paths, extreme
accuracy here will be a little challenging to obtain, so if you see any
mistakes (or can contribute some info yourself), please email me! BTW,
special thanks to Carlos Satoshi Mori's Walkthrough for making this section
a lot easier ;)
Nemo, Methuss, and Getta Robo - After the mission "G-3", either #2 or #3,
depending on which path you take after mission #1.
Gundam MK II - If, after mission #1, you take the 'B' route, then you will
have Emma as one of your opponents in the mission "G-3". Have Amuro talk to
her, and she will leave to investigate the poison gas rumor. Discovering
that it's true, she will defect to you before the start of the "Von Braun"
mission, bringing the Mark II with her.
Z Gundam - If you play "Von Braun", then Camille will join you after the
mission is completed. Otherwise, he'll show up a few turns into one of the
"Atmospheric Entry" variations.
GP-01 - This one's a little tricky. If you don't play the "Reef Airspace"
mission after "G-3" (i.e. you go after the Mysterious Enemies), then you will
skip straight to "Gundam Pillage", and play out the events of the first
episode of Gundam 0083 "Stardust Memories", with Gato hijacking the GP-02
(along with it's nuclear warhead) and Kou Uraki going after him in the GP-01.
Londo Bell will show up to help, and the GP-01 will be added to your ranks at
the end of the mission. However, if you choose to go after the DC, then upon
completion of "Reef Airspace", you will be given a choice of paths to travel:
B Route - You play "Atmospheric Entry" and either beat it >9 turns, and go
to the Gundam Pillage mission, or take longer and the result is the A
Route's "Land of Hot Sands" scenario below.
A Route - You play "Von Braun" then "Atmospheric Entry". No matter how
quickly you beat it, you will end up playing "Land of Hot Sands" instead
of "Gundam Pillage". Nina will appear on turn 7, piloting a Medea
carrying the GP-01 as cargo. You MUST protect the Medea to get the GP-01
at the end of the mission.
Note that, no matter what path you take, you will get the GP-01 eventually. I
like the A Route, as then you can also get the Mark II.
Z'Gok E - If you play "Land of Hot Sands", then Keith will find an abandoned
mech at the end of the mission. Kou will identify it as a Z'Gok E in almost
perfect shape. It will then be added to your ranks.
Argamma and Alex - After the mission "Gato's Raid", they will be added to
your unit, courtesy of Captain Henken.
Dijeh SE-R - In the mission "Seaside Panic", Four will appear in the Dijeh on
turn 6. After the battle, you will gain the MS, but not the pilot.
Combattler V (and it's component units) - After you play the mission "Super
Choudenji Robot Combattler V", it will join your unit.
+---------------------+
| 5. Comparison Chart |
+---------------------+
While not essential (seeing as all of these stats can be found above), I
thought that being able to quickly compare one mech to another based on their
stats could prove useful, so below you will find all of the games units in
a stat table. Like in the mecha info section, I've marked any stat changes
due to story-based upgrades with a tilde(~).

| 6. Version History/Future Plans |
+---------------------------------+
What's next: OK, sections 4 and 5 are in now. Thankfully, it wasn't as
difficult as I had anticipated. Way down the road, I'll add in the bad guy
mechs, but only after I've done the good guys. I would also like to put in
some PAR codes that allow you to use mechs you normally couldn't, so if
anyone has any, please let me know. Finally, I might add in a "mech dream
team" thingie detailing my ideal mech/pilot team, but that's for later...
Version 0.2 (3/01/03): I've added in sections 4 and 5. I also made a change
to the Mecha Info section, listing ALL different forms separately. Before,
I only listed non-flight modes independently. I hope this makes things
easier, both for me and you :) Finally, I fixed some small data errors here
and there.
Version 0.1 (2/15/03): This guide is released to the public. So far, it
only contains the info for mechs in the first mission, but at least I've
started the darn thing, and hammered out a layout that will enable me to
update it relatively easily...

If you would like to reach me, you can send me an email at
[email protected]. I won't check it terribly often, so don't lose
heart if I don't respond immediately. I won't respond at all if:
1. You ask a question already answered here.
2. You send something like "Help Me, I can't beat *whatever* mission!"
3. You flame or impatiently send a lot of emails about the same thing.
However, I will certainly respond (sooner or later;)) If you:
1. Ask a valid question.
2. Send comments or CONSTRUCTIVE criticism about this guide.
3. Have a good idea about something new for this guide.
4. Point out an error in my information.
I also won't hesitate to give credit below for any contributions you people
