1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Intro To SD Gundam
In 1979, writer Yoshiyuki Tomino created Kidou Senshi Gundam (Mobile
Suit Gundam), the first Real Robot anime. In the past, sci-fi series
had been either space operas like Yamoto/Star Blazers or Super Robot
shows like Mazinger Z/TranZor Z. Gundam was entirely different;
rather than having goofy-looking battle robots made by mad
scientests, the humanoid comnat machines (named Mobile Suits) were
mass-produced war machines, complimented by tanks, aircraft and
infantry. The original series (often called "First Gundam" for
short) often drew comparisons to America's Star Trek, especially
since both were cancelled but found a wider audience in syndication.
This success lead to the production of even more series, up until
today, when there have been 9 television series, 4 OVAs, and 9
movies...and that's just the official stuff. Gundam media also
covers countless manga, variation designs, and video games, including
the SD Gundam series. Taking the popular form of Chibi-fied
characters, Bandai produced a series of games that combined strategy
RPGs with the ever-famous Gundam mecha. There were five games for
the Super Famicom (Super Nintendo), labelled A Generation through F
Generation, each covering a different era of the Gundam continuity.
This FAQ deals with F Generation: Colony Kakutoki (Colony Battle
Chronicle).
1.2 Intro To G-Gundam
In 1994, Bandai created a new Gundam series to commorate the 15th
anniversary of First Gundam. The result was Kidou Butouden G-Gundam
(Mobile Fighter G-Gundam), featuring a new universe, free from the
tight continuity of the Universal Century. The story takes place in
Future Century 60, when the nations of Earth have moved most of their
citizens into space colonies orbitting the planet. To prevent the
outbreak of war, the United Colonies Federation organized a massive
fighting tournament known as the Gundam Fight. Every four years, the
colony nations construct a Gundam-type Mobile Fighter and send it to
Earth along with its pilot, the Gundam Fighter. For eleven months,
the Fighters battle each other and attempt to survive, preserving the
head of their MF. On the twelfth month, the surviving Fighters
gather in the nation of the previous champion and hold the finals.
The last MF standing is declared "Gundam of Gundams" and its home
nation wins the right to govern the Federation until the next Gundam
Fight. But on the eve of the 13th Fight, things are a little more
chaotic. A monstrous machine known as the Devil Gundam has fallen to
Earth, intent of wiping out mankind. To counter this threat, Neo-
Japan sends Domon Kasshu, a hot-blooded martial artist, as its Gundam
Fighter along with Shining Gundam. His mission: hunt down and
destroy the Devil Gundam and its thief, his brother Kyouji. If he
wins, Neo-Japan will release his father, who was put in cryogenic
stasis for treason for his creation of the Devil Gundam. As Domon
roams the Earth looking for his brother, the starting bell in space
rings! Gundam Fight! Ready, GO!
Author's Note: With the American release of G-Gundam, Sunrise had a
number of the Mobile Fighters' names changed for various reasons.
For the purpose of completeness, this FAQ will use the Japanese
names. For those who don't know all the Japanese names of the
Gundams...

1.3 Glossary Of Terms
Bits: A form of weapon used by Newtypes (psychics), bits are
essentially beam guns mounted on a small, mobile unit which can
operate by the pilot's mental commands. In G-Gundam, two Gundam
Fighters use bits: George de Sand's Gundam Rose and its Rose Bits,
and Master Asia's Master Gundam and its Juuni Ouhouhai attack.
However, the bits in G-Gundam are controlled by computer and mental
scans, eliminating the need for a Newtype pilot.
Core Lander: In some Mobile Fighters, the backpack unit is actually
a detachable hovercraft called a Core Lander which lets the Gundam
Fighter travel quickly. To activate the Gundam, the Core Fighter
must be attached to the back, loading the cockpit into the Gundam.
In this game, the Core Landers can't be removed from the Gundams.
DG Cells: A form of nanotechnology that makes up the Devil Gundam
and most of its support units. The cells have three properties that
add to Devil Gundam's nigh-indestructability: self-regeneration, self-
replication, and self-evolution. These cells have been known to
infect humans, Mobile Fighters, and even corpses for the purpose of
survival. The only known way to remove the infection of DG Cells is
through the power of the Shuffle Alliance's crests.
Gundam: A distinctive form of Mobile Suit, a Gundam typically
features a V-shaped fin on its "forehead", a humanoid face, complete
with two eyes, a faceplate, and a chin, and is almost always more
powerful than contemporary MS. In G-Gundam, all Gundams are Mobile
Fighters.
Gundam Fight International Treaty: The seven articles which govern
the Gundam Fight.
1: A Gundam whose head is destroyed is immediately disqualified.
Suppliment to Article 1: Injury or death caused accidentally during
a Gundam Fight is not punishable.
2: Attacking the cockpit of an enemy is forbidden.
3: Any Gundam that is damaged but has its head intact may be
repaired and continue fighting indefinitely.
4: A Gundam Fighter must protect his/her Gundam at all times.
5: All battles are held on a one-on-one basis.
6: A Gundam Fighter must always maintain the honor and dignity of
his/her home nation.
7: The battlefield for the Gundam Fight is Earth.
Suppliment to Article 7: Gundam Fighters cannot be punished for
destroying property during Gundam Fight matches.
Gundam Fighter: The technical term for the "pilot" of a Mobile
Fighter. Unlike previous Gundam series, Gundam Fighters need not be
skilled in mechanical operations to use their Gundams; instead, the
Mobile Trace System makes it so that any reasonably fit person can
control an MF.
Mobile Armor (MA): Using the technology developed for Mobile Suits,
Mobile Armors are large weapons that usually aren't humanoid in
shape. Because they're so much larger than MS, MA can hold more
powerful machines like I-Field generators and larger weapons. Some
MS have the ability to transform into MA forms, which are faster but
less capable at melee combat than their MS forms.
Mobile Fighter (MF): The specialized MS used in the world of G-
Gundam. MF are Gundams that use the Mobile Trace System and are
exclusivly used in the Gundam Fight tournament. MFs are built to
augment their Gundam Fighter's fighting abilities; therefore, a
boxer's MF would have more powerful punches while a sniper's MF would
have enhanced targetting sensors and a powerful rifle.
Mobile Suit (MS): The name given to the humanoid battle machines
used in the Gundam multiverses. MS tend to be between 20 and 60 feet
tall (depending on the era they were produced) and weigh several tens
of tons. Since they're human-shaped, MS weapons come in two forms:
either built-in weapons, like the famous 60mm Vulcan Guns, or scaled-
up versions of regular weapons, like rifles, swords, or bazookas. In
G-Gundam, MS are used for colony defense or anything outside of the
Gundam Fight.
Mobile Trace System (MTS): The special cockpit system used in Mobile
Fighters. Invented in FC 2, the MTS cockpit is essentially a bare
sphere, with three "rings" surrounding it; the middle ring, running
around the middle of the sphere, includes computers for diagnostic
purposes. When the Gundam Fighter activates his/her Gundam, the top
ring slides down and covers the pilot with a skin-tight battle
costume that has antennae on the shoulders, wrists, ankles, hips, and
down the back. These sensors copy the pilot's actions and transmit
them to the Gundam, making it act exactly like the pilot (except in
the case of transforming MFs like Gundam Heaven's Sword). This makes
piloting a Gundam more dependant on physical prowess than piloting
skill.
Shuffle Alliance: A clandestine organization of the world's
strongest fighters, the Shuffle Alliance maintains the honor and
fairness of combat in the Earth Sphere. Its members are Queen the
Spades, Jack in Diamonds, Club Ace, Black Joker, and the leader, King
of Hearts. The members of the Alliance are marked with crests on the
back of their right hands that can cleanse the infection of DG Cells.
In the beginning of G-Gundam, Domon Kasshu is the current King of
Hearts, having received the title from his mentor Master Asia. The
old Shuffle Alliance is lead by Black Joker and passes their crests
on to Chibodee Crockett (Queen the Spades), George de Sand (Jack in
Diamonds), Sai Saisi (Club Ace) and Argo Gulski (Black Joker). The
old Alliance also had their own unique MFs.
Ultimate Attack: Just like Street Fighter and KOF, almost all of the
Gundam Fighters have special attacks that defy logic and the laws of
physics. A Gundam Fighter's ultimate attack is his finishing move,
usually reserved for the very end of the fight. Some ultimate
attacks are more powerful than others; Neros Gundam's Silver Legs is
nowhere near as strong as Gundam Spiegel's Sturm Und Drang. The best
ultimate attacks in G-Gundam are the "Finger" attacks used by
Shining, God and Master Gundams, which charge the Gundam's hand with
energy and make destroying the enemy's head much easier. In F
Generation, a MF's ultimate attack is its most damaging and most
expensive attack.
2. GAME SYSTEM
2.1 Combat System
2.1.1 Move 移動
Every unit, except for Guards, have a Movement rating. This,
obviously, determines how many squares they can cover in a single
turn's action. One factor that affects the unit's movement is its
Terrain Rating, which will be covered later. Depending on how well
your unit can move over certain terrains, it can get extra movement
or none at all. If a warship moves, it automatically ends its turn.
2.1.2 Attack 攻撃
You can't win a fight through pacifism, so you'd better learn how to
attack appropriately. Each unit has between one and four different
attacks, all of which have three important stats: Range, Damage, and
EN Cost. Range determines exactly how many squares the attack can
hit; it's listed as a pair of numbers, showing the minimum and
maximum distance at which you can attack. For example, 60mm Vulcan
Guns have a Range of 1~2, meaning they can hit anything from one to
two squares away. Damage is an abstract rating of how hard the
attack hits, which tells you what to use in what situations. EN Cost
shows how much Energy the attack will consume from your unit. If you
have too few EN to use an attack, its name will be grayed out on the
screen. Be sure to conserve your EN; if the enemy is really low on
HP, use a weaker, cheaper attack so you can still fight. MS can
restore EN by docking with their warships, while warships can restore
theirs by landing in a friendly occupation point.
2.1.3 Depart 出撃
This option is only selectable by warships that currently hold MS.
It allows you to release the MS, giving them a full movement away
from the warship. If there are still MS in the warship, you will be
returned to the unit list and can release as many as you want. This
action can be performed after the warship has ended its turn, so you
can effectively get the combination of the warship and the MS'
movement. However, when an MS departs its warship, its turn is over.
2.1.4 Ascend/Descend 上昇/上陸
This option is only selectable by a unit which has ratings for both
Ground and Air. The Ascend command makes the unit move from Ground
to Air, while Descend makes the unit move from Air to Ground.
2.1.5 Capture 回収
This option is only selectable by warships with empty space that are
near surrendered MS. To make an enemy MS surrender, destroy its
warship and it will display a white flag and stop fighting. When you
capture a unit, it sits in your warship, useless until the end of the
stage. Afterwards, there will be a screen where all the captured
units change from red to blue and join your side. Surrendered units
are effectively destroyed until they're captured; if all enemy
warships are destroyed, the stage ends. Only surrendered units
inside a warship at the end of the stage are captured. Unlike the G-
Generation games, you can make any MS surrender, even if it's a big-
name character's MS like Sazabi, The-O, or Master Gundam. Also, if
some of your units surrender, you can use the Capture command to
reclaim them, making them available to fight again.
2.1.6 Transform 変身
This option is only available to units that have two different
forms. This allows you to change between its forms freely. In
almost every instance, the MS form is harder to hit and more capable
of fighting, while the MA form has heavier armor and better movement.
2.1.7 End 確定
After your unit has done everything it can, you can use the End
command to end its turn. Units that have ended their turn are marked
with an E in the lower right corner of their portraits. Note that
after a warship moves, its turn is automatically ended. Also, any
unit that attacks has its turn ended. Ascending and Descending also
ends the unit's turn.
2.1.8 Countering
When you find yourself under attack from an enemy unit, a screen
will pop up and prompt you to counter the attack in some way. The
three options are (in order): Counterattack (武器), Defend (防御),
Dodge
(回避). Counterattack works like a regular attack, except that you
can only use attacks that hit the enemy; if someone shoots at you
from two squares away, you can't counter with a beam saber. Defend
reduces the amount of damage you take from attacks, but never totally
negates it. Dodge decreases the hit percentage of the enemy's
attack; if they miss, you take no damage. When the Counter screen
pops up, you'll see the name of your unit on the left, the attacking
enemy on the right, and the attack they're attempting with a hit
percentage. If the percentage is high, you should probably Defend.
Use Dodge if you can lower their hit percentage to under 50%, the
lower the better. If you want the opportunity for a free attack,
choose Counterattack.
2.1.9 Extra Notes
In combat, you can receive extra money at the end by occupying
certain points on the map. For Ground stages, the occupation points
will be cities, and for Space stages they'll be colonies. If a
warship ends its turn on an occupation point, the point will change
to the appropriate color; afterwards, if a unit ends its turn on a
friendly point, its HP and EN will be partly restored. If an MS ends
its turn inside its warship, its HP and EN will be recovered
slightly. Some units have special unique commands. For example,
Gundam Spiegel and Johnbull Gundam have the Dummy (ダミー) Command,
borrowed from the other SD Gundam games. When used, it negates the
next attack made against the target. Using Dummy ends the unit's
turn.
2.2 Pre-Battle Screen
This is the screen that comes up between two combat stages. You get
four different options to prepare for the next battle, and one to
continue on.
2.2.1 Manufacture MS MS 生産
This displays the stats for certain MS along with a price and your
current credits. You can buy a Level 1 MS for the price listed,
adding them to your roster. To purchase an MS, select it from the
list and press A. A red cursor will appear along with the message
"Press A Button". Press A again to confirm and add the MS to your
line-up. Note that not every MS in the game may be purchased; if the
unit has a price listed in the index, it was calculated using the
Dismantle Unit option (see below).
2.2.2 Manufacture Warship 戦艦生産
This is essentially the same as MS Purchase, except it allows you to
buy warships so you can get as many MS into combat as possible.
Warships have the same basic stats as MS, except that they don't
progress levels; instead they have a capacity, which shows how many
MS they can hold at maximum.
2.2.3 Fleet Summary 一覧
Use this option to see the individual statistics for the MS and
warships you own. Units are grouped by type, then by level from left
to right. Transformable units can be transformed by pressing X.
2.2.4 Dismantle Unit 解体
If you have a unit you think is just warming the bench, wasting
space, or otherwise not worth its while, you can use this command to
dismantle the unit. Highlight the unit you want to scrap and press A,
and a red cursor will appear above it. Press A again to confirm and
eliminate the unit for good. Destroying a unit adds half its
purchase price to your current money.
2.2.5 End 終ろ
When you're done with pre-battle preparations, use this command to
progress on to the next stage.
2.3 In-Battle Screen
If you press A while highlighting your base, this menu will pop up,
allowing you to set up your battle team.
2.3.1 Auto-Formation オート結成
Using this command will automatically make combat groups for you by
putting all available MS in warships in order. This command is not
recommended as it tends to put bad Mass-Production units in your
prized warships.
2.3.2 Group Formation グループ結成
Selecting this option opens a menu with a list of your available
warships. Selecting one will open a menu of all your available MS
and a chart showing your warship's current load. You can select MS
to occupy the warship and have a battle group. This is the only way
to add units to combat other than those who begin combat on the map.
2.3.3 Launch 発進
This displays the list of warships and MS currently in battle. The
top section shows warships that are either on the map (grayed out) or
waiting to be launched. The bottom section shows warships that are
sitting out. To switch a warship from one list to another, highlight
it and press A.
2.3.4 Fleet Summary 一覧
The same as the pre-battle screen; lets you look at the stats for
the MS and warships in your base.
2.3.5 Class Change クラス・チエンジ
If you manage to get a MS up to Level ACE, then you can upgrade it
to a more powerful form using this command. The menu will show all
your MS, with ACEs lit up. To upgrade a unit, highlight it and the
boxes at the bottom of the screen will display what it can be
upgraded to. The left option gives a +1 bonus to the MS' Attack
while the right option gives a +1 to Defense. Some units can only be
upgraded to one form; in that case, they get +1 to Attack. If
possible, save before you upgrade so you don't end up with a unit you
don't want.
2.3.6 Map Return マップ戻る
When you're done with your preparations, use this command to return
to the map. If you added any groups to the battle list, they'll
immediately pop up at the base and be given a movement. If you
cancel the move, the warship is returned to base and will need to be
selected using the Battle Formation command again.
2.4 Battle Information
There are several important things you need to know about the
battles in SD Gundam.
2.4.1 Warships
You can't send units into battle without a Warship, so you're always
given at least one. When you send your Warship into battle, don't
expect to use it like an AEGIS Cruiser; they're too important. If a
Warship is destroyed, all its MS immediately surrender, making them
open to Capture or easy pickings for Experience. Also, when you move
an MS, you'll notice a yellow display centered around its home
Warship. This is the ship's Zone of Control. As long as you stay
within it, everything's fine. However, if you leave it, "WARNING!"
will appear above the MS, letting you know that it's in deep trouble.
When an MS is outside its Warship's zone, its accuracy and evasion
drop drastically, leaving it open to all kinds of pain.
2.4.1 Leveling Up
If you look at the stats for your MS, you'll notice that they have
an EXP listing, followed by a fraction. This indicates the MS'
current experience points. For those who've never played an RPG or
strategy game before, you earn EXP by defeating enemy units. The
first number listed is your current EXP while the second is the
number you need to level up. For example, Shining Gundam starts at
0/85; that means it has no EXP and needs 85 points to go to the next
level. After Level 3, the MS reaches Level ACE, which means it's as
powerful as it'll get in its current form and can be upgraded into a
new unit (see Class Change, above).
2.4.2 Beam and MAP Attacks
There are certain classifiers for attacks; the two that appear in
this game are Beam and MAP. Beam attacks tend to be more accurate
and are represented by the beam rifles used by the Death Army and
Nobusshi MS. MAP (Mass Attack Power) Attacks are commands that have
no battle animation; they simply hit a section of the battlefield all
at once. To use a MAP Attack, the MS must stay in one location for a
single turn (departing a warship counts for this movement). Examples
of MAP Attacks in this game include Bolt Gundam's Zakaretsu Gaia
Crusher and Nether Gundam's Nether Typhoon.
2.4.3 Money and Occupation Points
You earn a set amount of money after each battle, based off how you
won. If you destroyed all enemies, you get 150 credits; if you
infiltrated the enemy base, you get 50. To increase this amount, you
must occupy certain locations on the map, called Occupation Points.
To gain control of an Occupation Point, one of your MS must end its
turn on the point, which will make it change to your color. Allied
Occupation Points are useful to heal your warships; if you end a
warship's turn in one, its HP and EN will be restored partially. At
the end of battle, each Occupation Point is worth a certain amount of
bonus money.
2.4.4 Terrain Modifiers
Among the stats for your units is a Terrain Modifier. This is a
score, ranked from A to D, which shows how well suited the unit is to
traversing a certain type of terrain. There are four terrain types:
Space (top of the diagram), Ground (right), Air (left), and Water
(bottom). A B rating means that your unit can move a number of
squares equal to its Move rating. A higher rating increases the
amount of spaces you can move, while a lower rating reduces it. If
the unit has a dash (-) listed for a terrain, it can't move on that
terrain at all.
2.4.5 Different Maps
In some situations, there will be more than one battle map. Such
situations typically include an Earth-based battle with both Ground
and Space maps, or a space battle with a colony, asteroid or the
Moon. To change your view to another map, press Select. The ability
to move a unit from one map to the other depends on the stage. In a
Ground and Air situation, all you need to do is select the Ascend or
Descend command where appropriate. For Space and Ground maps, you
can change to the Ground map by moving the unit onto the image of the
other location (colony, Moon, etc.). To go from a colony to Space,
move the unit onto the airlock (the metal boxes located near the
edges of the map). To go from an asteroid or the Moon to Space, you
need to have a mass driver Occupation Point (looks like a ramp
curving upwards). To use it, move the warship onto the Point, then
next turn there will be a new command above End which will Catapult
your warship back into Space.
2.4.6 Computer Strategies
No matter what game of SD Gundam you're playing, the AI uses similar
tactics. It prefers to sneak a warship around to your base and take
over quickly, especially if there are two maps (check the second map
immedately). If an MS is damaged but not destroyed, it will return
to its warship and heal up; by the same token, a heavily damaged
warship will take up its units and run for the nearest Occupation
Point to restore itself. And of course, the computer loves to pick
on the little guys, damaging a single weak unit and having all its
units pound that unit until it blows up.
3. STAGES
3.1 Stage 1
"You may have those silver legs...but I have these golden fingers!"
-Domon Kasshu
Mission: Destroy Bud Carrier (Neros Gundam)
Victory Conditions: Defeat all enemies, invade enemy base
Lose Conditions: All allies defeated, allied base invaded
Maps: 1 (Ground)
Occupation Points: 9
Guest Units: Bud Carrier (Shining Gundam)
Enemy Units: Bud Carrier (Neros Gundam)
This is the first stage, so obviously it's going to be easy. It
recreates the first episode of G-Gundam (somewhat), as Domon Kasshu
of Neo-Japan battles the Mafia boss Michelo Chariot and his Neros
Gundam. Pretty straightforward, but it's still worth documenting.
And to begin with, let's get acquainted with your first Mobile
Fighter...
SHINING GUNDAM: Shining Gundam is quite a powerful unit. As with
most MFs, its main focus is on melee combat, so expect to get up in
their faces with this guy. The Beam Sword is a solid, dependable
melee attack; high damage for low EN. The Vulcans are, as with all
Gundams, forgetable unless you've used all your EN up already. The
Shining Finger is a great attack; powerful and with good range,
though it can only be used once without healing. Shining Shot is
your only real ranged attack, and it's about as good as your Beam
Sword. The only real stumbling block for Shining Gundam is its
prohibitively high EXP, which might ward you off. But it can upgrade
to the incredible God Gundam, so keep at it. And as a side note, an
ACE Shining Gundam transforms into Super Mode when it uses the
Shining Finger.
BUD CARRIER: In the G-Gundam anime, this warship was used
exclusively by Neo-Japan, but since there are so few warships, it
pops up a lot. For a basic, one-unit warship it's not bad, but don't
send it into heavy battle and expect to win. All in all, it's
mediocre at best.
STRATEGY: This stage is pretty straight-forward. All you have to do
is toast Neros Gundam and its Bud Carrier to win. If you look at the
stats for Neros Gundam, you'll notice something: it sucks in
comparison to Shining. In fact, if you have any trouble with this
guy, you should quit now. I swear I beat him with a critical hit
while using my 60mm Vulcan Gun. Along the way, you can probably grab
two to three Occupation Points for some extra cash. Just use this
stage to get adjusted to the game engine.
3.2 Stage 2
"And the pilots fight! And they fight! And they continue
fighting..."
-Stalker
Victory Conditions: Defeat all enemies, invade enemy base
Lose Conditions: All allies defeated, allied base invaded
Maps: 1 (Ground)
Occupation Points: 9
Guest Units: Bud Carrier (Gundam Maxter), Bud Carrier (Dragon
Gundam), Bud Carrier (Gundam Rose), Gorby (Bolt Gundam)
Enemy Units: Bud Carrier (Johnbull Gundam), Bud Carrier (Tequila
Gundam), Bud Carrier (Mermaid Gundam), Bud Carrier (Mandala Gundam),
Bud Carrier (Nether Gundam)
Summarizing about 10 episodes of the original plot, this stage teams
up the five hero Gundams (Japan, America, China, France and Russia)
to take on five Gundams from other nations. Now, let's get
acquainted with your new friends.
GUNDAM MAXTER: Neo-America's boxing-themed Gundam is just as
specialized for close-quarters combat as Shining Gundam. Since you
can only hit out to a range of 5 at best, you should stick with your
strengths and stay close. Your best attack is the Gounetsu
Machinegun Punch, but since it's an ultimate attack, you can only use
it once before having to return to your warship. Otherwise, just
pound away with your punches (the Gigantic Magnum seems to do less
damage) and go for it.
DRAGON GUNDAM: Before anyone says it, Gundam Wing's Shenlong was
inspired by this guy, not the other way around. That having been
said, Neo-China's Gundam ought to be a surprise to you. With its
Dragon Fire attack (a variation on the incoms from other SD Gundam
games), you get great range. This Gundam's ultimate attack (Shin
Ryusei Kouchoken) is supposed to be the second strongest so far, but
I find that it's actually not that good. Use your other attacks and
this guy will be an asset to your team.
GUNDAM ROSE: Neo-France's Gundam, like Dragon, has a high-range
attack; its Rose Bits. Though this attack costs a fair amount of EN,
it's still your best attack since it does good damage and is next to
impossible to dodge. The Rose Hurricane is a standard ultimate
attack: hard-hitting but expensive. Save it for destroying warships.
BOLT GUNDAM: Neo-Russia's Gundam is the second-toughest in the bunch
(after Shining, of course). However, it's evem more limited than the
others due to the fact that only three of its attacks are universally
useful. Its ultimate attack, Zakaretsu Gaia Crusher, is a MAP attack
that hits everything in a straight line out to 10 squares away
(rotate it with L and R). It has decent hitting power and can halve
a Bud Carrier's HP in one shot. Definitely use this guy, as he
upgrades into the powerful Master Gundam.
GORBY: The Neo-Russian transport plane, this warship is much better
than the standard Bud Carrier you've been using before now. After
this stage, you'll probably put all your Gundams in this one. One
important note: The Carpet Bombing attack can only be used while
you're on a Air map, and hits a radius of 3 squares directly below
Gorby's position.
STRATEGY: This stage isn't actually much of a challenge, either...a
bit disappointing. Right off the bat, the enemy Gundams are spread
out in a V-formation and are near almost all of the Occupation
Points. From left to right, the Gundams are Nether, Johnbull,
Mandala, Mermaid and Tequila. If you want some cheap levelling, send
Rose to fight Nether, Maxter against Johnbull, and have Shining, Bolt
and Dragon triple-team the other three. Just remember two things: 1)
If the enemy gets an Occupation Point, they can make your life a
living hell; 2) MIND THE BUD CARRIERS! The first time I played this
stage, Nether Gundam destroyed Rose's warship, making it surrender
and losing me a valuable member of the party. Also, the Gorby has
enough space to hold a few captured Gundams, but only Mandala is
better than average, so you might just grab some fodder for the next
level (believe me, you'll need it...)
3.3 Stage 3
"Come on...the Devil Gundam - and your dear brother - are waiting."
-Master Asia
Victory Conditions: Defeat all enemies, invade enemy base
Lose Conditions: All allies defeated, allied base invaded
Maps: 2 (Ground, Sky)
Occupation Points: 8
Guest Units: MAP 1: 2x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Nobusshi); MAP 2:
Warriors' Stealth Shuttle (Shuffle Spade [MA], Shuffle Diamond [MA],
Shuffle Club [MA], Shuffle Joker)
Enemy Units: MAP 1: Armed Shuttle (Master Gundam, 4x Death Army), 4x
Armed Shuttle (5x Death Army)
The first major story arc in G-Gundam centers on Domon returning to
Neo-Japan when he hears that the Shinjuku district of Tokyo is under
attack. When he arrives, he discovers countless hordes of the one-
eyed Death Army Mobile Suits, piloted by reanimated corpses. He also
encounters his former teacher, Master Asia. Though they work
together for a time, Master reveals that he's in league with the
Devil Gundam and wants Domon to join their ranks. But our boy isn't
about to go down without a fight...and he's got some new friends to
help him.
NOBUSSHI: Neo-Japan's mass-produced colony defense Mobile Suits,
Nobusshis are made to resemble the GM from the original 1979 Gundam
series. Sadly, these units fare about as well as their inspiration
did. Nobusshis are thorughly useless. Look at their stats; even
Neros Gundam is better, and you can almost destroy THAT in a single
hit.
Don't even bother with these losers; throw them at the Death Army as
a diversion.
SHUFFLE SPADE: The first of the four Shuffle Alliance's custom
Gundams, Spade was designed to emphasize its pilot's skill with
daggers. However, that doesn't mean it's limited to only melee
attacks; it also hits at a range with the Spade Dagger. Still, it's
not as useful as it seems.
SHUFFLE DIA: The second of the Shuffle Alliance's MFs, this unit
relies upon fire-based attacks. Regardless, it has basically the
same attacks as Spade. It has better HP than Spade, but lower
Attack. Therefore, it's only sort of useful.
SHUFFLE CLUB: The third Shuffle Alliance Gundam, this unit makes use
of shoulder-mounted beam cannons. But once again, it's simply a
carbon copy of the other two SA Gundams, except with mediocre HP and
the lowest Attack and Defense. How can the world's greatest fighters
have such lousy Gundams?
SHUFFLE JOKER: Okay, I take it back; not all of the SA's Gundams
suck. Joker, the only non-transforming Shuffle Gundam, is a great
improvement over the other three. It has much higher HP, the second-
best attack, the best defense, and unique attacks. And if you notice
that I haven't said anything about the Shuffle Flush attack they all
share, that's because I haven't gotten it to work. If you do, drop
me a line and I'll give you credit for the info.
NEO-JAPAN SHUTTLE: This looks almost Star Trek-like, doesn't it?
Comparing this warship to the Gorby, you'll notice that it has higher
EN, MUCH higher attack, and one extra attack. However, the Gorby
wins in every other department, especially carrying capacity (5 to
3). Consider the Neo-Japan Shuttle a weak alternative to the Gorby.
ARMED SHUTTLE: You'll see a lot of this thing carrying Death Army
MS, and it's pretty good; it actually outweighs the Gorby in most
categories. But if you want more, you'll have to buy them; the game
only ever gives you one.
STRATEGY: Wow, it looks like they were saving all their nasty so far
for this stage. You have to contend with Master Gundam and 24 Death
Army MS, but at least you get the help of the Shuffle Alliance and
the (ugh) Nobusshis. The Death Army are pretty weak; a single
ultimate attack should take one out; however, this can prove
problematic since all the UAs can only be used once without healing.
If you seriously doubt you can fight them all off, just load your
Gundam team from the last two stages into the Gorby and plow straight
through Master's shuttle, using the Alliance and Nobusshi as shields.
Unlike later G-Generation games, you can actually capture Master
Gundam, which is the third-most powerful MF in the game. It makes
the next two stages MUCH easier.
3.4 Stage 4
"You need to attain a state of perfect tranquility, like a calm pool
of water."
-Schwarz Bruder
Victory Conditions: Defeat all enemies, invade enemy base
Lose Conditions: All allies defeated, allied base invaded
Maps: 2 (Ground, Sky)
Occupation Points: 9
Guest Units: MAP 1: Bud Carrier (Gundam Spiegel); MAP 2: Bud Carrier
(God Gundam)
Enemy Units: MAP 1: Armed Shuttle (Master Gundam, 4x Death Army), 2x
Armed Shuttle (5x Death Army), 2x Armed Shuttle (5x Death Navy); MAP
2: 2x Armed Shuttle (5x Death Birdie)
After suffering a defeat at the hands of the Devil Gundam in
Shinjuku, Domon heads to the Guyana Highlands, where he was
originally trained by Master Asia. He undergoes rigorous training in
the hopes of mastering his unpredictable Super Mode. Along the way,
Neo-Germany's mysterious Schwarz Bruder plays the role of mentor and
tricks the other four Shuffle Alliance members into coming along.
Just before the finals start, Master Asia arrives with an army of
Death MS, but Domon's new Gundam is on its way...
GOD GUNDAM: The finals-only Gundam for Neo-Japan, God Gundam is a
real piece of work. Its power dwarfs Shining Gundam greatly (and
just about everything else as well). While it retains the Beam Sword
and Vulcan attacks from the original, G-Gundam gets two Ultimate
Attacks: Bakunetsu God Finger, a stronger Shining Finger and Sekiha
Tenkyoken, a powerful ranged attack. If you don't use this, you
might be afflicted. Note that if you've been diligently levelling up
your Shining Gundam, you can have two God Gundams at this point...
GUNDAM SPIEGEL: Neo-Germany's Gundam is inspired by...ninjas? Oh
well, this Gundam is a real powerhouse. It can hit at a decent range
with its Iron Net attack, and has enough EN to use its Sturm Und
Drang attack more than once before healing. The German Ninjitsu
attack makes Spiegel trade places with the enemy it targets, nice if
you teleport a powerful opponent into a mass of allies. And since
this Gundam can be upgraded into either God or Devil Gundam, it's
well worth the effort.
STRATEGY: In this stage, the enemy simply tries to take your base
with a three-pronged attack of ground, air and water units. The
funny thing is, it leaves their base next to defenseless. Send in
two ships: one to defend the base and another to cross the river and
meet up with God Gundam. Have the second team head down to the lower
right corner of the map to the enemy's base and break through for the
win.
3.5 Stage 5
"The final battle will be held here, on Lantau Island!"
-Wong Yun Fat
Victory Conditions: Defeat all enemies, invade enemy base
Lose Conditions: All allies defeated, allied base invaded
Maps: 2 (Ground, Sky)
Occupation Points: 8
Guest Units: MAP 1: Bud Carrier (Nobel Gundam), Neo-Japan Shuttle
(Rising Gundam)
Enemy Units: MAP 1: Ulube National Warship (Devil Gundam, Master
Gundam, Gundam Heaven's Sword, Grand Gundam, 4x Death Army), Ulube
Defense Warship (Neros Gundam, 6x Death Army), Ulube Defense Warship
(Johnbull Gundam, 6x Death Army), Ulube Defense Warship (Walter
Gundam, 6x Death Army), 2x Ulube Defense Warship (6x Death Birdie)
MAP 2: 2x Ulube Defense Warship (6x Death Birdie)
After escaping the Guyana Highlands, Domon arrived in Neo-Hong Kong
just in time to qualify for the Gundam Fight finals. Competing
through a series of qualifying matches, the remaining fighters earned
the chance to participate in the Battle Royale on Lantau Island. But
it soon becomes apparent that things aren't on the level when the
Devil Gundam bursts onto the scene. But for this final battle, you
have some new friends...
NOBEL GUNDAM: The excessively popular sailor-suited Gundam of Neo-
Sweeden has a less-than-stellar showing in F-Generation. Its best
attack, Berserker Mode, has a range of 1, and its other attacks and
low HP are a major disadvantage. It upgrades to the Shuffle Joker,
but that's assuming you can keep it alive long enough.
RISING GUNDAM: The partner of Shining, Rising is piloted by Rain,
Domon's assistant and lover. But like Nobel, this Gundam just can't
compare to your team as it already exists. It's no great waste
throwing this thing to the lions (or DG Army) as a distraction.
STRATEGY: Believe it or not, the final battle can actually be a
complete cakewalk for you if you know how to do it right. All the
enemy units except for the Ulube National Warship and its units will
come at you in waves. Simply guard your base and take out the waves
of cannon fodder. If you want free experience and decoys, destroy
the battleships, then kill the surrendered units at your leisure.
After that, head back to your base to heal, upgrade ACE'd units and
convert captured enemies into allies. Then load up in your warships
and fly towards the island. To get over the beam ropes, you'll have
to use the Ascend command on the warships, then move and Descend once
you're within the ropes. Of course, you can use your Gorbys to
Carpet Bomb the DG Army, but remember that they recover a flat 2500
HP each turn. To finish the stage, land and either beat down on the
enemies (only Master and Devil are a challenge) or storm the base.
Congratulations on winning!
4. Special Mode
When you complete the game, you'll get the chance to play in a
series of new stages based upon the maps from the Story Mode stages.
Of course, to make things more fun, these stages are a lot more
difficult and they place limits on the number of warships you can
have...enjoy!
4.1 SP Stage 1
Map 1: Neo-Italy (Stage 1)
Map 2: Sky
Occupation Points: 9
Enemy Units
[Level 1] 4x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Busshi)
[Level 2] Bud Carrier (Neros Gundam), 7x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Busshi)
[Level 3] Gorby II (Gundam Maxter, Gundam Rose, Dragon Gundam, Bolt
Gundam, Shining Gundam), 4x Armed Shuttle (4x Death Army, Death
Birdie), 6x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Busshi), 7x Pirate Ship (5x Nether
Gundam)
Warship Limit: [Level 1] 4; [Level 2] 8; [Level 3] 18
Notes: This stage is pretty straight-forward. In the first two
levels, you just take on a bunch of Busshis, Neo-Japan's colony
defense MS, which are even more pathetic than the Nobusshi. Things
get interesting at Level 3 when you fight the heroes' Gundams,
several Death MS, and 35 Nether Gundams. Yes, 35 windmill-shaped
Gundams. What an army...
4.2 SP Stage 2
Map 1: Earth (Stage 2)
Map 2: Sky
Occupation Points: 9
Enemy Units
[Level 1] MAP 1: Bud Carrier (Neros Gundam), Bud Carrier (Nether
Gundam), Bud Carrier (Nobel Gundam), Pirate Ship (Rising Gundam,
Tequila Gundam, Mandala Gundam, Mermaid Gundam, Johnbull Gundam)
[Level 2] MAP 1: 5x Armed Shuttle (2x Death Army, 3x Death Birdie),
3x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Nobusshi); MAP 2: 2x Gorby (Shuffle Spade,
Shuffle Dia, Shuffle Club, Death Army)
[Level 3] MAP 1: Bud Carrier (Neros Gundam), Bud Carrier (Johnbull
Gundam), Bud Carrier (Mandala Gundam), Bud Carrier (Mermaid Gundam),
4x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Busshi), 4x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Nobusshi);
MAP 2: 4x Armed Shuttle (2x Death Army, 3x Death Birdie), 3x Gorby
(2x Death Army, 3x Death Birdie)
Warship Limit: [Level 1] 4; [Level 2] 10; [Level 3] 20
Notes: This stage mostly resembles the basic version inasmuch as
it's a giant fight between Gundams. But as usual, things get dicey
with the addition of Death MS and the Shuffle Alliance.
4.3 SP Stage 3
Map 1: Neo-Japan (Stage 3)
Map 2: Sky
Occupation Points: 8
Enemy Units
[Level 1] MAP 1: Bud Carrier (Neros Gundam), Bud Carrier (Johnbull
Gundam), Bud Carrier (Mandala Gundam), Bud Carrier (Mermaid Gundam);
MAP 2: Gorby (Shuffle Spade, Shuffle Dia, Shuffle Club, Shuffle Joker)
[Level 2] MAP 1: Neo-Japan Shuttle (Neros Gundam, 2x Busshi), Neo-
Japan Shuttle (Mermaid Gundam, 2x Busshi), Neo-Japan Shuttle
(Johnbull Gundam, 2x Busshi), Neo-Japan Shuttle (Mandala Gundam, 2x
Busshi), Neo-Japan Shuttle (Nobel Gundam, 2x Busshi); MAP 2: 4x Gorby
(3x Nobusshi), Gorby (Shuffle Spade, Shuffle Dia, Shuffle Club,
Shuffle Joker)
[Level 3] MAP 1: Neo-Japan Shuttle (Gundam Maxter, 2x Neros Gundam),
Neo-Japan Shuttle (Gundam Maxter, 2x Mermaid Gundam), Neo-Japan
Shuttle (Gundam Maxter, 2x Johnbull Gundam), Neo-Japan Shuttle (Bolt
Gundam, 2x Mandala Gundam), Neo-Japan Shuttle (Gundam Maxter, 2x
Nobel Gundam), 8x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Busshi); MAP 2: Ulube Defense
Warship (Master Gundam, 6x Death Birdie), Ulube Defense Warship
(Gundam Heaven's Sword, Walter Gundam, Grand Gundam, Devil Gundam)
Warship Limit: [Level 1] 6; [Level 2] 10; [Level 3] 22
Notes: Once more, it's a big battle of Gundam vs Gundam in Level 1.
But things get tough in Stage 2 when those same Gundams each get two
Busshis for support, along with 12 new Nobusshi. In Level 3, you'll
have to deal with tougher Gundams supported by weaker ones (hope you
like Maxter!) and your first battle against the Devil Gundam and its
minions.
4.4 SP Stage 4
Map 1: Guyana Highlands (Stage 4)
Map 2: Sky
Occupation Points: 9
Enemy Units
[Level 1] MAP 1: 3x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Deaty Navy), Gorby (Gundam
Spiegel, 4x Nobusshi), Gorby II (Neros Gundam, Mermaid Gundam,
Johnbull Gundam, Mandala Gundam), Gorby II (Nether Gundam, Nobel
Gundam, Rising Gundam, Tequila Gundam)
[Level 2] MAP 1: Gorby (Gundam Spiegel, 4x Nobusshi), 5x Pirate Ship
(5x Death Navy), Gorby II (Neros Gundam, Mermaid Gundam, Johnbull
Gundam, Mandala Gundam), Gorby II (Nether Gundam, Nobel Gundam,
Rising Gundam, Tequila Gundam); MAP 2: 4x Gorby (3x Nobusshi)
[Level 3] MAP 1: 5x Pirate Ship (3x Death Navy), 8x Neo-Japan
Shuttle (3x Nobusshi), Gorby (Shuffle Spade, Shuffle Dia, Shuffle
Club, Shuffle Joker), Ulube National Warship (2x Gundam Heaven's
Sword, 2x Walter Gundam, 2x Grand Gundam, Master Gundam, Devil
Gundam), Ulube Defense Warship (Gundam Heaven's Sword, 5x Neros
Gundam), Ulube Defense Warship (Walter Gundam, 5x Nobel Gundam),
Ulube Defense Warship (Grand Gundam, 5x Johnbull Gundam), Ulube
Defense Warship (Master Gundam, Nether Gundam, Rising Gundam, Tequila
Gundam, Mermaid Gundam, Mandala Gundam); MAP 2: 4x Gorby (Shuffle
Spade, Shuffle Dia, Shuffle Club, Shuffle Joker)
Warship Limit: [Level 1] 6; [Level 2] 12; [Level 3] 24
Notes: One of the more frustrating things about this stage is
fighting lots of Gorby IIs in addition to those pesky second-string
Gundams. In Level 2, the computer tries to sneak those Gorby IIs in
from the other side (in Stage 3 is uses the Gorby and Shuffle
Alliance). And once more, the Devil Gundam and its Four Kings appear
to menace you.
4.5 SP Stage 5
Map 1: Neo-Hong Kong/Lantau Island (Stage 5)
Map 2: Sky
Occupation Points: 8
Enemy Units
[Level 1] MAP 2: Neo-Japan Shuttle (Shining Gundam, Rising Gundam,
God Gundam), 7x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Nobusshi)
[Level 2] MAP 2: 7x Neo-Japan Shuttle (3x Nobusshi), 4x Gorby
(Shuffle Spade, Shuffle Dia, Shuffle Club, Shuffle Joker), Gorby II
(Shining Gundam, Rising Gundam, God Gundam, Gundam Spiegel, Master
Gundam, Nobel Gundam)
[Level 3] MAP 2: 12x Neo-Japan Shuttle (Busshi, 2x Nobusshi), 3x
Ulube Defense Warship (7x Death Birdie), Armed Shuttle (Neros
Gundam, Mermaid Gundam, Johnbull Gundam), Armed Shuttle (Nether
Gundam, Tequila Gundam, Mandala Gundam), Ulube National Warship
(Gundam Heaven's Sword, Walter Gundam, Grand Gundam, Master Gundam,
Devil Gundam, 3x Death Birdie), Gorby II (Shining Gundam, Rising
Gundam, God Gundam, Gundam Spiegel, Nobel Gundam), Gorby (Shuffle
Spade, Shuffle Dia, Shuffle Club, Shuffle Joker), 3x Bud Carrier
(Gundam Maxter), Bud Carrier (Bolt Gundam)
Warship Limit: [Level 1] 8; [Level 2] 12; [Level 3] 26
Notes: Wow, now you're fighting Team Japan with the Nobusshis and
all three Neo-Japanese Gundams. For this stage, you start on Lantau
Island and the enemy starts on the opposite end of the sky map. In
Level 2 they add more Nobusshis, the Shuffle Alliance and more
Gundams. Level 3 is a nightmare: it's a hit parade of almost every
Gundam in the game. Just do your best and hold onto that island!

6. Closing/Credits
In the future, you can look forward to similar FAQs for SD Gundam C-
Generation (Axis Senki, based off of Gundam ZZ) and E-Generation
(Zanscare Senki, based off of V Gundam). My friend RPGZero has
already done FAQs for A-Generation and B-Generation, and an E-
Generation FAQ is in the works. That is, if Super Robot Wars doesn't
steal our attention. ^_^;;
Special thanks to:
-Yoshiyuki Tomino, creator of Gundam and one of the greatest (if
misunderstood) anime directors of all time.
-Bandai/Banpresto, makers of this game and many other great ones
like Super Robot Wars and Encounters in Space. Keep up the good
work, guys!
-RPGZero, my best buddy on the GameFAQs board and co-author of our
Gundam parodyfic, the G-Pub.
-NagaharuJin and Deranged for helping me translate the menu commands.
-Mecha and Animation HQ (www.mahq.net) for technical information and
attack names.
-Relena989, the love of my life. ^_^
