Dai 2 Ji Super Robot Taisen (Super Robot Wars II) Walkthrough
Version 1.1 - 05/28/2002
by Carlos Satoshi Mori (csmori@hotmail.com)
This is my walkthrough for the Famicom (FC) version of Dai 2 Ji Super
Robot Taisen, or Super Robot Wars II. I'm writing this because, well, I felt
like it, and I thought players might enjoy knowing its storyline, since it
had several successful sequels on a number of platforms.
Because this is a pretty traditional simulation game, I have decided not
to take too much time explaining the basics of this kind of game; I believe
most players already know how to play it, or won't have much trouble figuring
it out, so I will only cover less obvious aspects (well, at least aspects I
think are not so obvious) of the game.
But, first of all, I should tell you this FAQ is a succession of spoilers;
as a matter of fact, it's one single, huge spoiler. I give up the storyline,
as most of this FAQ's intended readers can't understand japanese. So, if you
don't want to know what happens before it happens, don't read this.

PROLOGUE---------------------------------------------------------------------
There once was a scientist with a superhuman intellect and extraordinary
determination.
According to his unmatched brain, the destruction of mankind was drawing
near: a monstruous power from space. It seemed to him like humans would not
be able to stand against it. So, he built one huge robot in order to draw the
power necessary to defend the Earth. This robot's name is Valcion; the
ultimate robot, boasting immense power.
Until here the story is relatively nice. But the scientist, Bian Zoldark,
felt insecure. He thought if all mankind wasn't united, if all their efforts
weren't concentrated, they would not be able to defend themselves against the
space invasion.
To prevent this thought from coming true, he formed a secret society, the
Divine Crusaders (DC) and steadily built reserves for it. To unite the world
by force; in other words, to conquer the world...
DC's mobilization was quick. Unexpectedly, Super Robot pilots fell, one by
one, into DC's hands. With more and more Super Robots joining them and the
threatening power of the Valcion, it seemed like it was just a matter of time
before all the world fell under DC's control.
However, even if DC conquered the entire world, there would be people that
continued to oppose their rule. Miraculously, three Super Robots escaped from
DC's hands: Gundam, Mazinger Z and Getter Robo; they and their pilots stand
against DC with all their hearts.
And now begins the world-silencing Second Super Robot War.

3 - Items
---------
In this game, you can shop at given points; to enter a shop, place any of
your units at certain points of the map (I will indicate where are the shops
in the walkthrough). When an item is used, it's gone for good, so think well
before using them - they cost a lot. These are the items available:
ゆうきのしるし (Sign of Courage) $4000 Heals 100 HP of who uses it.
とっくんのもと (Special Training Book) $5000 Gives 1 to 255 experience
points to whoever uses it.

4 - Seishins
------------
Seishins are spells your pilots can use, just like magics on other games,
and that are learned when the pilot reaches a certain level. Each pilot can
have up to six seishins.
Not every seishin a pilot has is visible at any moment; healing seishins
are only available if your unit isn't at full HP, for example. Also, if you
don't have enough SP (seishin points) to use a seishin, it won't appear on
the seishin list.
These are the seishins available (the number near the name is the amount
of SP necessary to use them):
かそく (Kasoku/Acceleration) 10 Mobility + 3 for your next move
はやて (Hayate/Speeding) 50 Mobility + 5 for your next move
こんじょう (Konjou/Will-power) 30 Heals 50 points of your own HP
そごぢから (Sokodikara/Potential) 60 Heals completely your own HP

いのり (Inori/Prayer) 100 Heals 100 HP of all your units
あい (Ai/Love) 150 Heals all your units completely
ちょっかん (Chokkan/Intuition) 10 Increases you own Hit Rate by 10%
がまん (Gaman/Endurance) 20 Decreases suffered damage by half on
the next enemy attack
ひっさつ (Hissatsu/Certain Kill) 40 100% hit rate for the next attack
ひらめき (Hirameki/Flash) 50 100% evade rate for the next attack
きあい (Ki'Ai/Focus) 40 The next attack inflicts double damage
ねっけつ (Nekketsu/Hot Blood) 80 The next attack inflicts triple damage
めくらまし (Mekuramashi/Blinding) 100 Reduces all enemies' hit rates by half

げきど (Gekido/Rage) 150 Damages all enemies by 10 to 255 HP
テレポート (Teleport) 150 Transports a chosen unit to any place
Usually, battle-oriented pilots have seishins that help them inflict more
damage or escape enemy attacks, while pilots of healing-oriented units have
more healing seishins.
WALKTHROUGH------------------------------------------------------------------
Whenever an NPC or enemy unit is piloted by an "important" pilot (that is,
someone that is not just a regular soldier or an AI system), I'll mention the
pilot's name between square brackets [].
Scenario 1 - "Rescue!! Z Gundam"
--------------------------------
16x20, Surface
Goal: Destroy all enemies
Player Units: 6
Initial Enemy Formation: Zen II Lv04 x01
Zssa Lv03 x01
Zaku Lv03 x03
Zaku Lv02 x03
Zaku Lv01 x03
Dabras M2 Lv01 x01
Garada K7 Lv01 x01
Events: none
First of all, Bright wants to gather more battle power, so the idea is to
rescue Camille and his Z Gundam, captured in the city of Belfast. When asked,
he says the forces in the city aren't significant, so you should be able to
deal with them with your current resources.
When your units are already out, Bright says, according to the information
he got, the enemies are short-handed, so the idea is to destroy them all and
only then go in the city to rescue Zeta. As Kouji wants to thrash all enemies
Sayaka tells him not to do anything stupid: if his HP gets low, he should let
her repair it. Bright extends this warning to everyone else, and reminds them
they can also board the White Base for repairs.
The enemies shouldn't give you any trouble; just be careful when reaching
the city: the Zssa can make long-range attacks, and if too many enemies hit
you at the same time, they might somehow end up killing you.
After the battle, Camille thanks you for setting him free, and Amuro says
it was quite stupid of Camille to be caught; Camille admits he was negligent,
but the fact is the enemies' power exceeded his expectations - especially one
particularly powerful blue robot he has no idea how to beat. Bright's worried
the enemy has robots they still don't know, and thinks some prudence will be
necessary. Jack mentions that, by the way, there's no point in sitting there
- they should move on fast.
As you wasted resources at this battle, you will have to reach some nearby
base for supplies; the nearest base is in Madrid, and Sayaka believes someone
else is there too. Ryou remembers Michiru should be there, and intends to ask
her some help if they can talk to her.
So, a communication channel with Michiru is open (for Musashi's joy), and
she tells you DC has not attacked Madrid yet; also, she'll get supplies ready
for you to pick up. Jack goes ahead of you to thank her, against Musashi's
objections...
Scenario 2 - "Trick City"
-------------------------
32x15, Surface
Goal: Destroy all enemies
Player Units: 7
Initial Enemy Formation: Marasai [Jerid] Lv09
Marasai [Kacricon] Lv07
Getter Q [Michiru] Lv05
Arsos Lv05 x01
Bado Lv04 x01
Gouf Lv04 x02
Zaku Lv04 x03
Zaku Lv03 x03
Enemy Reinforcements: Gouf [Ranba Ral] Lv10
Zaku [Akorth] Lv04
Zaku [Gozun] Lv03
Events: Turn 3, Enemy Phase - Texas Mack appears
Turn 6, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements arrive
As you approach Madrid, Bright wants everyone on standby. A familiar robot
comes your way: Michiru's Getter Q. She immediately tells you not to come any
closer, for reasons she can't explain right now: all you need to know is it's
a trap.
There are indeed several DCs hidden just behind the mountains; they're led
by Jerid, who obtained Michiru's cooperation by threatening several prisoners
- now, Jerid wants her to attack you (he is not in the mood for fighting), or
else the prisoners get it.
Michiru is left no choice; the Getter Q is your enemy here, and you can do
nothing to change it. However, on Turn 3, Jack pops up, saying he's saved the
citizens; once Michiru hears this, she moves back to your side (as a NPC), so
Jerid is forced to come to battle.
On Turn 6, enemy reinforcements come, led by Ranba Ral, who sees your team
as something Jerid can't deal with. Ranba Ral is strong, but not invincible -
the really tough enemy here is Jerid.
After the battle, Michiru says she is sorry for her betrayal, but everyone
on your group says they would do the same thing in that situation. Also, they
call Michiru to join the party, but she refuses, as she doesn't want to leave
the city unprotected; Jack says he'll stay here too to help her - his help is
no longer that necessary since Z Gundam joined you.
Scenario 3 - "Supremacy over Dakar"
-----------------------------------
16x24, Surface
Goal: Destroy all enemies
Player Units: 6
Initial Enemy Formation: Zaku (Char Custom Type) [Char] Lv13
Elmeth [Lalah] Lv10
Bado Lv06 x02
Hi-Gogg Lv06 x03
Zssa Lv05 x04
Zaku Lv05 x03
Toros D7 Lv04 x01
Enemy Reinforcements: Dom [Gaia] Lv14
Dom [Ortega] Lv13
Dom [Mash] Lv13
Events: Turn 4, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements arrive
F-91 appears
Bright thinks of going to Africa - Dakar, more specifically - to weaken DC
at least a little, while Kouji still believes he can breeze through any enemy
and Sayaka is getting tired of his bragging.
Once you're out, Amuro has a strange feeling, like a voice is calling him;
on the DC side, Lalah feels the same. Musashi says he isn't hearing anything
special, and Hayato says his lack of perception is hopeless.
On Turn 4, the Black Trinary (Gaia, Ortega and Mash) arrives, but Seabook
and his F-91 arrive right after to save the day. Amuro asks how could Seabook
get here, as he had been captured, but Seabook wants to leave the talking for
later.
Amuro can persuade Lalah, in which case they both wonder how do they know
each other's name, even though they never met before; in due time, he manages
to convince her to join you, to Char's dismay.
After the fight, Seabook tells not even he knows very well how he escaped:
his captors suffered an attack, and he seized the opportunity to escape jail.
That's pretty weird: other than you, there shouldn't be any force with enough
power to attack DC; anyway, you might be able to take advantage of that. Now,
the enemy may be preparing a counterattack, so it's good to get ready...
Scenario 4 - "Strike Back"
--------------------------
26x23, Surface
Goal: Destroy all enemies
Player Units: 8 (including Lalah)
Initial Enemy Formation: Dom [Gaia] Lv13
Dom [Ortega] Lv13
Dom [Mash] Lv13
Marasai [Jerid] Lv08
Marasai [Kacricon] Lv08
Zakrello Lv11 x01
Z'gok E Lv09 x03
Bado Lv09 x02
Gaza C (MS) Lv08 x04
Enemy Reinforcements: Zakrello Lv10 x01
Events: Turn 5, Player Phase - Enemy Reinforcements arrive
As expected, the enemy puts up a counterattack; fortunately, you are ready
to deal with it. The enemies are Jerid, Kacricon and the Black Trinary, each
more eager to defeat you than the next.
None of these enemies is as hard as they used to be, but the Zakrello can
recover their friends' HP, so it'd be better to deal with them first. On Turn
5, another Zakrello appears, but by now you should have defeated a fair share
of enemies, so the Zakrello isn't so important.
After the battle, an apparently friendly transmission comes. It comes from
a ship called Argama; the woman there, Fa Yuiri, tells you their Kilimanjaro
base is under attack, and asks for your help. Turns out Camille already knows
Fa - more reason for you to help. Fa informs the only defense the base has is
an iron wall, which should still hold up a little longer.
Bright says the Kilimanjaro base is their greatest base, and it can't fall
without help. Fa thanks you for your assistance, and says Captain Henken has
entrusted you the Argama - it's much more efficient than the White Base, and
you're sure to make good use of it.
Kouji is eager to go to the Kilimanjaro, but Sayaka says she won't go with
you; she believes her Aphrodi A won't be able to keep up with the rest of the
team. Besides, Dakar still isn't safe, so she will stand there for at least a
little longer. Fa says she'll fight to cover for Sayaka; her MS, the Methuss,
has repairing skills like the Aphrodi A. Now, to the Kilimanjaro.
Scenario 5 - "Desert of Treachery"
----------------------------------
32x15, Surface
Goal: Destroy all enemies
Player Units: 8
Initial Enemy Formation: Big Zam [Dozul] Lv21
Marasai Lv13 x03
Toros D7 Lv12 x03
Zssa Lv11 x03
Bado Lv10 x05
NPC Units: Psycho Gundam (MS) [Four] Lv26
Item Shop: (10,9) - Super Alloy Z ($3000)
Magnet Coating ($4000)
Certain Hit Aiming ($1000)
Heart of Justice ($5000)
Events: Turn 3, Player Phase - Four attacks Dozul
Ashura appears, takes Four and Dozul away
Fa detects some movement, but can't tell for sure whether they are enemies
or not - there are too many Minovsky particles around. Bright orders everyone
on standby, and opens a communication channel. The unit outside is piloted by
one Four Murasame, who claims to have deserted DC.
Ryou doesn't know whether they should believe her, and Hayato thinks she's
a spy, but Camille has a feeling she can be trusted. In doubt, Bright decides
to let her in anyway - there will be time to adopt contermeasures if anything
goes wrong. Camille and Four hit it off from the start, upsetting Fa a little
bit, but enemy units approach before she has time to express it better.
The enemies are led by Dozul, who was chasing Four - and didn't expect to
find you here. He orders his men to destroy Four's Psycho Gundam anyway. Upon
seeing Dozul's mobile armor, Four warns Camille the Big Zam is very powerful.
Notice the city on (10,9) holds a shop, where you can buy items.
Four doesn't do anything until Turn 3, when she decides to fight to defend
Camille. She attacks Dozul, and, right after that, Ashura shows up, capturing
Four and taking her and Dozul away.
After the battle, Camille regrets not being able to protect Four.
Scenario 6 - "Destroy the Enemy Fortress"
-----------------------------------------
24x24, Surface
Goal: Infiltrate the Enemy Fortress
Player Units: 8
Initial Enemy Formation: Mecha Kochou Ki [Kochou] Lv16
Fixed Cannon Lv13 x05
Fixed Cannon Lv12 x05
Dom Lv12 x03
Marasai Lv11 x02
Enemy Reinforcements (1): Asshimar (MA) [Bran] Lv16
Enemy Reinforcements (2): Dom [Gaia] Lv16
Dom Lv13 x03
NPC Units: Psybuster [Masaki] Lv??
Events: Turn 2, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Turn 6, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
Turn 7, Enemy Phase - Masaki appears, attacks enemy fortress
Turn 8, Player Phase - Masaki leaves
At the Kilimanjaro, you finally meet with Captain Henken, who was thinking
his forces alone couldn't possibly win. According to him, the enemy has built
a fortress very close to his own base, and they are being bombarded by their
cannons. He, then, asks you to destroy their base, and Bright promises you'll
do your best.
The enemy base is just as big as the Kilimanjaro Base, and Bright alerts
everyone that its weapons have quite a long range, so don't get too close for
nothing. On the enemy side, a woman named Kochou recognizes the famed Getter
Robo, but doesn't seem very impressed.
During the battle, Kochou focuses on Getter Robo; Ryou can convince Kochou
by telling her she's not that kind of person, but she refuses to listen; only
when her HP is less than 30% of its total you can really talk to her; by then
she already acknowledged her defeat and asks for Ryou to deal the final blow;
he hesitates, and she asks why - after all, it's only natural for the strong
to defeat the weak. Ryou asks her why is she so concerned about fighting, and
why can't they be friends; she answers one only survives on DC by being cold;
he suggests she could leave DC and join their side - after all, without her
fighting-only spirit she is no longer Kochou Ki ('Ki' means 'devil'), but the
beautiful Kochou. She thanks him, and joins your party.
On Turn 2, Bran appears, saying this is a good opportunity to test his new
machine, the Asshimar; for starters, he already likes its high mobility. On
Turn 6, Gaia appears, wishing to avenge the defeats of Ortega and Mash.
However, on Turn 7 a strange new robot appears, and his pilot berates you
for not being able to deal with these enemies; he says if you can't take down
such a lousy fortress you will never defeat DC. Kouji wonders whether he's a
DC, but he says he just came to give you a little hand.
He approaches the fortress, and tells you to duck if you don't want to get
hurt; he then launches an attack that wipes out almost all cannons in a split
second. After that, he enters the fortress and calls you in, leaving your men
unsure about whether he is a friend or not; then again, he did leave the door
open for you to enter, and you can discuss it later.
Once you enter the fortress or destroy all enemies, the goal inside is to
destroy the fortress power central.
Scenario 7 - "Duel!! Rain X1"
-----------------------------
20x20, Base
Goal: Destroy Rain X1
Player Units: 8
Initial Enemy Formation: Rain X1 [Lorelai] Lv21
Genova M9 Lv15 x03
Zai Lv14 x02
Marasai Lv14 x03
Zssa Lv14 x02
Gaza C (MS) Lv14 x02
Enemy Reinforcements (1): Bado Lv16 x05
Enemy Reinforcements (2): Zen II Lv18 x01
GiruGiru Lv16 x05
Events: Turn 6, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Turn 8, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
Inside the base, everything is messed up, presumably by the same pilot you
met before. Anyway, Amuro urges you to destroy the fortress power central as
planned.
The pilot who destroyed the cannons is also inside, unhappy someone called
Shuu just escaped him. Fa asks his name, and he introduces himself as Masaki
Andou; his robot is called Psybuster. Kouji never heard of this name - Masaki
tells you to forget it, as this isn't the place to talk about it. He says he
has someone to catch, and leaves.
More enemies appear at Turns 6 and 8, but they're not strong, and won't do
more than delay you. When you approach the Rain X1, Lorelai decides to battle
you with honor, lika a samurai must do. Notice long-range attacks cannot hurt
the Rain X1.
Once you defeat Lorelai, he is impressed with your power, and decides to
give you a piece of information in order to honor this power: your old friend
Grendizer is imprisoned at Odessa, and also warns you to be careful with Ma
Kube's trap before dying.
Boz and his BozBorot appear - he was imprisoned here. He wants to join you
and fight DC, but Kouji isn't willing to let him come. Also, Lalah decides to
stay in the Kilimanjaro Base: you're now going to Odessa, and she knows Char
is there; she considers him her patron, and she does not intend to fight him.
Scenario 8 - "Ma Kube's Trap"
-----------------------------
28x20, Surface
Goal: Destroy the Gyan; prevent Grendizer's destruction
Player Units: 1 (Mazinger Z) + 10
Initial Enemy Formation: Gyan [Ma Kube] Lv29
Minerva X [Minerva X] Lv18
Fake Grendizer [Fake Duke] Lv15
Marasai Lv16 x03
Zssa Lv16 x03
Gaza C (MS) Lv16 x03
Gaza C (MS) Lv14 x03
Enemy Reinforcements: Genova M9 Lv16 x01
Zai Lv16 x02
Item Shop: (21,3) - Magnet Coating ($4000)
Chobham Armor ($2000)
Sign of Courage ($4000)
Special Training Book ($5000)
Events: Turn 2, Player Phase - Fake Grendizer reveals itself
Turn 3, Player Phase - Ally units appear
Gyan is damaged - Grendizer, BozBorot appear
Turn 10, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements arrive
Musashi says Henken was a really nice guy: not only he gave you supplies,
but he also upgraded some of your weapons - from now on the attacks available
to some of your robots, like Mazinger Z, are the strongest ones. Fa calls you
because of some strange transmission she's receiving.
The transmission comes from DC's Europe District Commander, who tells you
to remember his name, Ma Kube. Musashi says they don't need to be told to
learn anything; Ma Kube replies that if Musashi's memory is as bad as his
face... Anyway, he's just calling to tell you're going to die very soon, and
that he knows you're coming to rescue Grendizer - it's pretty obvious.
He says he is willing to give away Grendizer and its pilot, Duke Freed, as
long as Kouji comes alone to pick him up - and if you don't accept it, Duke
will bear the consequences.
Kouji goes alone, as ordered, and when he arrives Ma Kube says you're free
to take Grendizer away with you. However, on Turn 2 Duke reveals to be a fake
(if you moved close to him, he'll say he got you, otherwise he'll say you've
escaped) and attacks you. Still on Turn 2, Kouji sees Minerva X and says it
looks familiar - it resembles Mazinger Z.
Kouji can persuade Minerva X, in which case he'll say Minerva X is a robot
designed by his grandfather to be Mazinger Z's partner robot. Minerva X never
attacks Mazinger Z, so he asks her whether she doesn't want to fight him, and
she agrees - after all, she was created to save Mazinger Z. So, he calls her
once more and she joins you.
When you cause any damage on Ma Kube, he lets out Grendizer (the real one)
and tells you to leave your robots if you don't want him to pay. However, Boz
appears just then; Ma Kube asks what is that poor robot doing there, and Boz
attacks to prove the value of his BozBorot. Chances are Boz will miss, but it
gives Duke the chance he needed to break free and attack Ma Kube.
When you destroy the Gyan, Ma Kube leaves saying he'll teach you a lesson;
Musashi says once again he's coming with this 'learn' thing... For Ryou, the
enemy attacks are becoming more severe, and if they don't increase their war-
power things will get too tough. Fa suggests going to the enemy city of Hong
Kong, as it has facilities you'll need in order to power-up. Camille says it
isn't so simple - the enemy forces there are high-leveled.
Bright thinks Fa's suggestion has more advantages than disadvantages, and
decides to go to Hong Kong. Kochou decides to leave, though: she is taking an
alternate route to divert the enemy attention; for her, the Argama is way too
slow, and that makes it easy for the enemy to find them. Ryou says they will
soon catch up with her, and she gives him a farewell, for now.
Scenario 9 - "Winds of Revenge"
-------------------------------
22x32, Surface
Goal: Destroy the Gyan
Player Units: 10
Initial Enemy Formation: Gyan [Ma Kube] Lv26
Enemy Reinforcements (1): Zssa Lv19 x03
Zai Lv18 x03
Gaza C (MS) Lv18 x03
Bado Lv18 x03
Enemy Reinforcements (2): Guided Missile Lv19 x04
Events: Turn 1, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Turn 2, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
Turn 3, Enemy Phase - ZZ Gundam appears
An enemy unit managed to approach you undetected; it's Ma Kube again. Ryou
says he's got some nerve to come here alone, but Kouji doesn't care - he only
want bo beat him up.
Still on Turn 1, Ma Kube says he had predicted your moves and has a little
surprise for you: more enemies. On Turn 2, willing to increase the fun, he
calls a bunch of missiles to attack you; they're easy to destroy, but if they
manage to hit you they can hurt.
On Turn 3, Judou appears on the ZZ Gundam; he was imprisoned by DC, but he
says his captors were quite incompetent, and he had little problems escaping.
The goal of this stage is to defeat the Gyan, but it may be even tougher than
before, since it's on the water now - making most beam weapons useless.
Once you defeat him, you are back on track to Hong Kong, but Kouji notices
something is wrong with Minerva X; after some examination, you find out it is
overloaded, and cannot be repaired on the Argama. It must be carried back to
the Kilimanjaro Base for some overhauling.
A transmission comes from Kochou: she was attacked on her way to Hong Kong
- the only thing she tells you before the transmission falls is about a blue
robot. Camille wonders whether this blue robot is the one he fought before.

Events: Turn 5, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Turn 10, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
Because you're approaching Hong Kong, Bright wants everyone to be careful,
since DC may have assembled some strict guard here. Seabook has a suggestion:
most of the enemies are concentrated at Kowloon, and directly attacking them
would imply too many damage on your team; so, why not acknowledge the risks,
split the team in two, and send one of them in a diversionary mission?
Bright is worried dividing the team would also weaken you a lot, but Amuro
says that, if it does work out, the enemy power will be reduced drastically.
Duke volunteers to divert the enemy: transformed into Spazer, Grendizer has a
very high mobility, being ideal to draw out the enemy; the ZZ Gundam can also
transform into a high-mobility shape, so Judou volunteers as well, and the Z
Gundam goes too.
At the battlefield, Camille sees the Psycho Gundam, piloted by Four, and
tries to call her. However, she was brainwashed, and does not recognize him.
She feels strong headaches, and believes they're being caused by the enemies;
Jerid is impressed by the Scirocco's mind control, and wants to pay back the
defeats he suffered, while Lyla tries to calm him down, as anger doesn't help
fighting.
On Turn 4, if you didn't damage the Psycho Gundam until this point, Four's
headaches get stronger; from this point on, Camille can talk to Four - she'll
remember him and join you.
Once you destroy all enemies all the facilities of Hong Kong are available
to you. Camille and Judou meet with Astonage, who was imprisoned at the enemy
base. He is a mechanic, and can develop new stuff for the ZZ Gundam and F-91.
While he's doing his job, Bright leaves Seabook and Judou there to help him
with their MSs.

NPC Units: Medea [Matilda] Lv13
Events: Turn 5, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Turn 7, Enemy Phase - Psybuster appears
Bian leaves
Turn 8, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
You receive a transmission from a Medea; its pilot, Matilda, reports she
is being attacked nearby Shanghai, and requests help. The Medea is carrying
power-up parts, so rescuing it is very important. Because the Argama is under
adjustments, there is no choice but sending the remaining units only.
The goal is to defend the Medea, so don't get too far away from it. It can
refill energy, and will usually restore its own HP (which is good, since you
can't heal it).
On Turn 5, however, the Valcion appears, piloted by the leader of DC, Bian
Zoldark. Hayato asks why is he in the frontline; Bian answers this may be the
last chance to deal with things personally. Kouji says he is very mistaken if
he thinks he can finish you here.
On Turn 7, it should be pretty clear you can't defeat the Valcion, but the
Psybuster appears. Bian is surprised to see a mech he didn't know of. Masaki
says he decided to come back to you after he gave up searching for Shuu
Bian does know Shuu Shirakawa and his Granzon, and is curious about what
Masaki has to do with him, but concludes it doesn't really matter: you are no
match for him. So, he will entrust your demise to his subordinates, and go
home. Masaki wants to fight, but Bian says he can only dream of defeating him
and credits his ignorance to his youth; anyway, staying any longer is a waste
of time. Some more enemies appear later, but they're not strong.
After the battle, Masaki tells you DC's main citadel is at the Moon, and
asks whether you have some sort of transportation to go to space; you'll need
a shuttle booster to do it, so Masaki tells you to go to Llasa. DC has a base
there working as a spaceport, and you are bound to find things like boosters
there.
Scenario 12 - "Fighting at Llasa"

Bado Lv21 x02
Enemy Reinforcements: Bado Lv23 x03
Events: Turn 5, Enemy Phase - Near Argama, F-91 appear
Turn 6, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements arrive
Bright asks Masaki if you can actually win the war by invading the enemy
stronghold; Masaki answers your power is ridiculous if compared to DC's, but
he wants to use surprise on your favor, and if you won't come along he'll go
by himself. Bright orders Fa to head the Argama to Llasa, but the ship starts
losing power output, and its Minovsky Craft also develops problems, forcing
the rest of your team to go alone ahead of the Argama.
When you reach the enemy base, you find out it's guarded by Dozul Zabi and
his Big Zam; Four says she'll take care of him, and asks the others to deal
with the remaining DCs.
On Turn 5, Bright appears, bringing Seabook and Judou; he calls Amuro, the
Getter Team and Kouji into their new battleship, the Near Argama. Once these
pilots enter the ship, their robots are replaced by new models: the Nu Gundam
for Amuro, Getter G for the Getter Team, and the Great Mazinger for Kouji.
After you defeat Dozul, you put your hands in the Booster and can now head
to space. Moreover, you managed to power up everyone's weapons, which will
hopefully make the upcoming fights a bit easier. Four never went to space, so
she asks Camille how it's like; he describes it as being cold and empty, but
also huge, and it makes you feel like you're immerse in it - like a child who
sees the sea for the first time. Four wishes to see the space - good for her,
because she's going there.
Scenario 13 - "Scirocco's Shadow"
---------------------------------

Turn 5, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements arrive
The preparations for launching are complete, but Fa gets a severe fever.
She'll be fine, but Seabook spots enemies in the radar before you can start
the countdown.
Hamaan orders his forces to aim at the Near Argama, since losing it would
leave you powerless; she especially expects Puru to show a good performance.
Judou gets some strange feeling, as if a voice is calling for him; both Amuro
and Camille sense something as well, but Judou seems to have his mental wave-
lenght synchronized with whoever is causing these feelings - hence the 'voice
calling' sensation.
Judou can talk to Puru, and they'll introduce themselves. She asks him if
he doesn't want to play with her, but Hamaan orders her to stop talking and
take Judou down. She refuses to, arguing he's not an enemy ("he's Judou") and
they'll play together. Judou manages to convince her to leave Hamaan and join
your group, but Hamaan activates the Qubeley Mk-II's autopilot system and
brings Puru back, taking her out of the battlefield.
On Turn 2, Hamaan asks why Scirocco hasn't moved yet; he says he's changed
his mind and doesn't want to fight. Jerid stays to battle, but Scirocco calls
Reccoa and Sara and leaves, leaving your group wondering what just happened.
Hamaan says she knew he wasn't trustworthy, and puts herself to fight.
When you defeat all enemies, Bright calls everybody back to the ship, but
Jerid appears again before you get to take off; Four decides to stay and hold
the enemies back, while you get away.
Camille doesn't want to leave her alone, even though if he leaves now he
won't be able to return in time; Amuro says they can send a message to Henken
and he'll come here and rescue Four, but Camille can't leave the ship now -
it would only make Four's efforts worthless. So, into space you go, without
Four.

Events: Turn 2, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Turn 8, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
Turn 9, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (3) arrive
Already at space, Kouji's willing to hurry to the Moon, but Masaki says it
is not so simple: first, you need to take down the enemy base Solomon. There
is a good chance you're being watched, but most of DC is at the Earth, right
now fighting, so they're likely not to care about your small team. Boz Borot
can't act in space, so it can't be launched for the time being, but Fa is on
her feet again.
At the battlefield, Yazan already knew you were coming his way, thanks to
Scirocco, and wants to finish this quickly with Rozamia's help. Rozamia just
mumbles something about the sky falling, making Yazan question the advantages
of using enhanced humans and wonder what's Scirocco's purpose with them. On
your side, Camille has a feeling, which he thinks may be Four, while Rozamia
feels like his brother may be around.
Three more Dreissens come on Turn 2, making very little difference; when
Camille gets close to Rozamia, she recognizes him as her brother; Fa says he
has no sister, but Rozamia still vows to protect him. From now on, Rozamia'll
chase Camille around.
Some more enemies come out on Turns 8 and 9, no big deal; after the battle
Camille says there are no enemies even inside Solomon - they all came out of
it already. Judou says he can't go with the name Solomon, and asks its other
name; Fa says it was "Konpei Island", due to its odd shape.
Kouji asks Camille what's the deal with Rozamia; he doesn't know very well
either. She introduces herself as Camille's younger sister, and Kouji cannot
believe she's younger than Camille. Hayato isn't sure she can be trusted, but
Musashi is willing to think a woman so pretty can't be evil. Anyway, Bright
recommends care, as the enemy will certainly counterattack.
Scenario 15 - "Fierce Battle! Jupitris"

Enemy Reinforcements: Bound Doc (MS) Lv26 x03
Events: Turn 4, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements arrive
Bright explains to Duke enhanced humans are pilots whose skills were risen
by the use of drugs and hypnotic therapy; they think Rozamia is one of these
enhanced humans, as they often have their memories scanned. Bright doesn't
mind her staying in the ship, as long as she doesn't cause problems.
Just as he says that, Fa comes to tell Rozamia got out of the ship on her
own; while trying to call her back, Fa detects a huge object approaching. Its
ID code identifies it as Jupitris - it's an enemy surprise attack! Everybody
goes out to rescue Rozamia.
Inside Jupitris, Rozamia wonders who was calling for her and Scirocco wel-
comes you to his ship, introducing himself as DC's space forces commander. He
invites you to join his forces, as you're much stronger than he predicted -
even Bian is beginning to worry about you. Since you are not interested in
being part of DC's new order, Scirocco orders Rozamia to wake up and says you
are her enemies - she fells headaches and turns against you.
After the battle, Scirocco tells you they are aiming the 'Solar Ray' into
Konpei Island - good luck trying to stop it, it is on point L6. Scirocco runs
away, and Amuro isn't sure he was telling the truth, but Masaki reminds he's
not necessarily a liar, and seems interested in using your team for his own
purposes. For instance, he may be planning to have you drawing DC's attention
and take advantage of it to usurp power inside DC itself.
Kouji obviously doesn't like the idea of seeing Scirocco take advantage of
your victories over DC, but Camille reminds him you can't just stop fighting
DC. Duke wants to return to the Near Argama at once - from now on, you have
to plan your moves carefully.
Scenario 16 - "Escape"

Events: none
There's probably an airtight-type colony at point L6; such a colony would
be easy to remodel into a Solar Ray. Boz does not know what is this Solar Ray
thing people keep talking about; Kouji berates him for that, but he doesn't
know either. Duke explains it is a colony remodeled into a laser cannon-like
structure. Since a colony is about 2 kilometers in diameter, such a laser has
a terrible destruction power, and it's imperative to reach point L6 and stop
it. On your way there, however, you're attacked.
The DC forces were in the middle of a training when you appeared and made
it more interesting; Carozzo mentions his 'Last Batallion' is DC's top squad.
Upon learning this is the Last Batallion, Duke teels everyone to run away -
you have absolutely no chance of beating them. Masaki says the Psybuster's
Laplace Computer can find an escape route; there's a current swirl ahead, and
if you enter it the enemy will never catch up. Memorize the point he shows -
it's your escape point.
You can have Seabook talk to Cecily, in which case she'll be surprised he
is alive; she tells him to run away - she won't join you, but will be fine,
and won't move from now on, to make your escape easier. The enemies actually
aren't that hard, except for Captain Radra. The enemies on the left side of
the screen won't move at all, unless you approach them.
Once you move any unit into the escape point, it automatically leaves the
battlefield; when they all escape, Seabook thanks Cecily for the escape.

Turn 7, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
Turn 9, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (3) arrive
Thanks to Last Batallion you are late, so you need to hurry; Masaki knows
it is not a good time, but he needs to go elsewhere: his Laplace Computer has
detected somehting strange, which may indicate the Granzon is nearby. He does
not want to abandon you, but he can't let it go - he will be back as soon as
possible.
When you arrive, Gremmi says you're too late: the Solar Ray is set to fire
in 11 minutes, and he orders Puru to delay you further. According to Amuro,
you can stop the Solar Ray by destroying the Generator Mirrors that power it
- without them, the Solar Ray can fire no lasers.
If Judou talked to Puru on stage 13, he can talk to her now, but he has to
convince her twice to make her join your team. Enemy Reinforcements appear on
Turns 4 and 7, but only the Zakrellos that come at Turn 9 can be a problem,
since they can heal the mirrors. More than anything, you need to always move
towards the mirrors - even doing so you'll be left with little time to attack
them.
Once you destroy all mirrors any remaining unit leaves, having no business
left here. Hayato suggests returning to Konpei Island, since you suffered a
lot of damage yourself.

Events: Turn 5, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Turn 10, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
By taking adventage of the high concentration of Minovsky particles - that
clouded the radars - DC attacks Konpei Island with two waves of missiles, and
then with robots. Judou is quite surprised with such a direct attack, but his
ZZ Gundam was undergoing adjustments, and cannot be used right now; Grendizer
is in the same situation. BozBorot, however, was powered up and can now fight
in space. Puru too will fight, despite Judou's objections.
On Turn 5, Rakan come to back Gremmi up. Even more enemies show up on Turn
10, including a somewhat powerful Messala.
After the battle, you receive a transmission from Henken; due to your aid,
they have been able to end the fights on Earth, so now they came to space and
help you. Henken knows what's going on thanks to Masaki, who stumbled on him
on his way back. Even better, he brought a surprise to Camille: Four.
Upon watching their reencounter, Henken says he expected to see some cheap
melodrama; he knows you have some tough battles ahead and doesn't want to be
a hindrance, but asks to keep Four on his army - they've been on some severe
battles, and she'd add a lot to their forces. Camille agrees, but can't help
worry about leaving her beloved Four, which triggers Fa's jealousy.
Time to plan your next operation: Bright asks Henken which route would be
most effective to capture DC's Granada Base; Henken answers that according to
his intel their northern side is relatively unguarded. Henken will also stage
an attack from the south to make your capture operation easier.
Scenario 19 - "Deathmatch on the Surface of the Moon"

Henken's information was correct: this route is indeed poorly guarded. Fa
confirms the appearance of some 10 enemy units ahead. Puru has a bad feeling
as you enter the battlefield, but can't identify its source; Puru Two feels
the same on the other side, indicating to Hamaan Puru is among you.
Notice Grendizer can now transform into any of its combined modes (Marine,
Drill or Double), and some of your units gained new weapons (i.e. Hyper Mega
Launcher for the Z Gundam, VSBR for the F-91); also, other weapons (like Nu
Gundam's Fin Funnels) had their range extended.
Hamaan orders Puru Two to kill Puru for her betrayal; so, Puru Two will
usually ignore other opponents, going only after Puru. When they fight each
other, Puru understands they are'in a sense, the same person, although Puru
Two seems to hold the most violent part of Puru only. If you let Puru Two
kill Puru, Puru Two gets a real bad feeling about what she just did; however,
she won't stop fighting.
That aside, there is nothing special about this stage, except Hamaan is a
very hard opponent, so be careful. Once you are done with them, you are free
to go further.

Still fighting your way on Granada, you meet another DC force. On Turn 1,
the blue robot who attacked Camille appears; it is the Granzon and its pilot
Shuu Shirakawa, who Masaki has been chasing all this time.
Shuu wasn't expecting to meet Masaki here, and asks him since when did he
become part of the crowd, giving up his Lone Wolf act. Masaki wants to know
what's Shuu intending to gain from this cooperation with DC, but Shuu doesn't
believe Masaki is capable of understanding his mind.
Since he didn't know you, Shuu introduces himself, and says he's familiar
with your reputation, so he felt like fighting you once - throw all you have.
Ryou mention his affectations reminds him of Hayato.
It shouldn't take long to be clear Shuu's way out of your league, so just
try to mantain your units high on HP near him. On Turn 5, more enemies come,
but they are nothing compared to Shuu. On Turn 7, Shuu says you are as strong
as he expected, maybe more. In respect to this power, he'll leave this battle
- but only this time. Also, you don't have enough even to think of fighting
Bian. A great trial is coming you way, but if you manage to succeed...
After the battle, everyone is concerned about Shuu and the huge power he
demonstrated and wonder what are his plans.

Turn 3, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
Turn 4, Enemy Phase - Psycho Gundam appears
Amuro asks Bright whether he didn't find the enemy resistance a bit too
fragile, which would suggest a trap. Kouji doesn't care, as usual: he thinks
he can deal with it, trap or not - besides, what's the option?
The base is completely empty, except for the Valcion - it is a trap. Bian
says it was all a plan to lure you in, as the base will explode in 15 minutes
and take you along; your power exceeded his expectatives by far, but it stops
now. He offers you a last chance to join his cause - promptly refused -, and
then leaves.
Now, you have 15 minutes (15 turns) to leave the base by reaching the exit
on the bottom of the screen. You have to run at full speed, ignoring the few
enemies that pop up on your way. On Turn 2, Ryou wonders why didn't Bian just
explode the base immediately; Musashi says he's enjoying to see you sweat.
On Turn 4, Four appears, but that helps nothing at all. Even if you don't
stop for anything, units like Great Mazinger should be able to make it only
at the last turn. When all your units are out, Duke mentions DC might be more
afraid of you than they may show - to destroy their Granada Base just to beat
you is no little thing.
Henken mention he received confidential info that revealed this base was a
trap; he couldn't quite believe it, but came to check it out anyway. Now that
they abandoned this base, Bright wonders where DC's main citadel is. Henken's
also received info about this: looks like they are setting a base at Jaburo,
South America, but he doesn't know how accurate this info is. Even if this is
not true, it's still better than doing nothing, so to Jaburo you go; Henken's
staying to put things in order here, and will follow you as soon as possible;
he also brought a new model battleship, the Ral Kairam, for you to use.

Events: Turn 3, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements arrive
Everything is set for your entry in 25 minutes; Bright puts all pilots on
standby, as the enemy may decide to attack you at this moment. Sure enough,
some 10 enemy units come your way with 20 minutes left to entry. Bright warns
everyone they have to be back within 20 minutes - whoever doesn't return will
burn in the atmosphere.
Because Z Gundam's WaveRider mode is capable of doing atmospheric entries,
Amuro asks Camille to lead their reentry, if necessary. So, you just need to
prevent the Ral Kairam from being destroyed in 20 turns - nothing more. Since
most enemies will attack only the Ral Kairam, you don need to worry about any
enemy who can't make long-range attacks, as long as you keep your battleship
surrounded.
If Puru Two killed Puru during Scenario 19, Judou can convince Puru Two to
join you now (Judou has to talk to her twice); if Puru is still alive, Judou
can talk to her, but she won't accept (because she doesn't feel guilty about
having killed Puru). More enemies come on Turn 3, but they cannot make long-
range attacks, so they are no threat.
Once all enemies have been destroyed, into the atmosphere you go.
Scenario 23 - "Scirocco's Counterattack"
----------------------------------------
28x16, Surface
Goal: Destroy the G-O
Player Units: 11
Initial Enemy Formation: G-O [Scirocco] Lv41
Palas Athene [Reccoa] Lv39
Messala (MS) [Sara] Lv38
Bragger S1 Lv36 x02
Jagd Doga (Gyunei Custom Type) Lv35 x03
Gira Doga Lv35 x03
Fixed Cannon Lv35 x03
Guided Missile Lv35 x03
Enemy Reinforcements (1): Guided Missile Lv36 x04
Enemy Reinforcements (2): Guided Missile Lv36 x04
Item Shop: (4,5) - Magnet Coating ($4000)
Chobham Armor ($2000)
Sign of Courage ($4000)
Special Training Book ($5000)
Events: Turn 5, Enemy Phase - Granzon appears, than leaves
Turn 7, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Turn 8, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
The Ral Kairam landed on coordinates W74, N41: in the New York vicinities,
pretty much like planned. You are immediately attacked, and Bright thinks DC
is probably getting desperate.
On Turn 5, the Granzon appears. Scirocco thinks Shuu came to help, but he
only came to inform Scirocco's plans for a coup d'etat are over - Bian has
already discovered everything, and Scirocco's status as a commanding officer
in DC is already gone.
Scirocco, however, doesn't care about losing his position in DC; he thinks
Bian's Valcion is no match for his G-O, and once he's done with you he'll go
after him. Two waves of missiles come on Turns 7 and 8, but they're no match
for a Psyflash.
After you defeat Scirocco, Bright thinks it looks like DC is not as united
as it was said to be after all; that's the perfect chance to defeeat them for
good. Over the radio, Henken says his forces were caught in an enemy counter-
attack as well; Camille doesn't have to worry, Four is fine.
If things keep going this way, your forces will soon be surrounded by the
enemy; Bright decides to go alone in the Ral Kairam to attract the enemy away
from you; the rest of the team must seize the opportunity to invade Jaburo.
It's dangerous, but it'd come down to this sooner or later.
Scenario 24 - "GiruGiruGan's Apparition"
----------------------------------------
26x32, Surface
Goal: Defeat GiruGiruGan
Player Units: 10
Initial Enemy Formation: Qubeley [Hamaan] Lv48
GiruGiruGan [GiruGiruGan] Lv41
Geymalk Lv38 x03
Doven Wolf Lv38 x02
Bawoo (MS) Lv38 x01
Bawoo (MS) Lv37 x02
Bragger S1 Lv37 x01
Gira Doga Lv37 x02
Hi-Gogg Lv37 x02
Enemy Reinforcements: Guided Missile Lv36 x02
Item Shop: (6,5) - Magnet Coating ($4000)
Chobham Armor ($2000)
Sign of Courage ($4000)
Special Training Book ($5000)
Events: Turn 5, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Kouji complains without the Ral Kairam it's very difficult to move around,
but Amuro reminds him this allows them to sneak. If Puru's in your team, she
complains she wants to take a bath, but there's nothing Judou can do for her.
Suddenly, Hamaan appears and says your efforts were in vain: you are already
surrounded. She reminds you this is their home base and as such they have the
terrain advantage.
Hamaan decides to show their final weapon: GiruGiruGan, a creature you all
thought to be dead - actually, this one is a clone created by DC scientists.
GiruGiruGan is very powerful and can cause a lot of damage, so it's important
to destroy the units next to him fast, especially the Geymalks - very few of
your people can stand all of them attacking at once.
When you defeat GiruGiruGan, you hear his voice laughing and saying you're
wrong if you thought you already won, and then appears MechaGiruGiruGan, even
more powerful than the original.
After you defeat MechaGiruGiruGan Duke and Kouji comment on how unexpected
this battle was. Bright catches up with you, and after ensuring everybody is
fine he tells Henken's okay - apparently, Scirocco's rebellion left DC in a
complete mess, and, with the exception of a few remaining soldiers, they have
no war power left.
Bright mentions it looks like you had a fierce battle yourself. The fact
such a force was launched against you right from the start confirms Jaburo is
DC's central headquarters. If Puru is in your team, she finds a Quin Mantha,
and believes to be able to use it; Judou objects, but Bright tells him to let
her use it - having seen her fight, he understands her skills as a pilot are
extraordinary, and she can deal with the Quin Mantha's higher power. Besides,
such power would only help her survive.
Scenario 25 - "Last Batallion, Again"
-------------------------------------
32x22, Surface
Goal: Defeat the Lafressia
Player Units: 11
Initial Enemy Formation: Lafressia [Carozzo] Lv46
Alpha Aziel [Quess] Lv43
Jagd Doga (Gyunei Custom Type) [Rezun] Lv45
Jagd Doga (Gyunei Custom Type) [Rakan] Lv43
Jagd Doga (Gyunei Custom Type) [Gyunei] Lv42
Ghoul [Ashura] Lv42
Big Zam Lv40 x02
Qubeley Lv39 x01
Gira Doga Lv39 x02
Jamul Fin (MA) Lv38 x01
Zaku III Lv38 x03
Enemy Reinforcements (1): Vigna Ghina [Cecily] Lv46
Enemy Reinforcements (2): Qubeley [Hamaan] Lv48
Geymalk [Kyara] Lv48
Enemy Reinforcements (3): Jagd Doga (Gyunei Custom Type) [Ral] Lv48
Jagd Doga (Gyunei Custom Type) [Gaia] Lv48
Events: Turn 1, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (1) arrive
Turn 3, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (2) arrive
Turn 4, Enemy Phase - Enemy Reinforcements (3) arrive
When you approach Jaburo for your final attack, you head into nothing less
than Last Batallion; however, this time you are not running away from Carozzo
and his men.
Still on Turn 1, Cecily appears; Seabook can make her leave DC by talking
to her twice - she'll turn into a NPC (if Seabook already talked to her once
on Stage 16, you only need to do it once). Hamaan and Kyara appear on Turn 3,
and Ranba Ral and Gaia show up one turn later to make things really bad.
When you get rid of this bunch of enemies, you have to get rid of Carozzo
and the pilots near him; chances are Cecily will be defeated, as you have no
control over her actions and she behaves pretty recklessly. If you manage to
beat the funnel-attacking MSs, however, you only need to stay in the water to
defeat Carozzo - he can't attack underwater enemies.
Once you destroy the Lafressia, time to move on to the final stage.
Scenario 26 - "Final Battle at Dawn"
------------------------------------
20x23, Base
Goal: Defeat the Valcion
Player Units: 10
Initial Enemy Formation: Valcion [Bian] Lv50
Granzon [Shuu] Lv49
Geymalk [Rakan] Lv46
Geymalk [Kyara] Lv46
Events: none
All pilots shout words of encouragement, as you're nearing the last battle
of this war. At the enemy base, Bian Zoldark says you overcame all his expec-
tations, but you cannot destroy DC without defeating him. Shuu is with Bian,
saying it seems they have an (undesirable but) inseparable relation.
Get rid of the Geymalks first, of course - Bian and Shuu won't move. Make
sure everyone's HP is full before going for the Valcion. Once you move above
a certain line both Shuu and Bian move, so you cannot lure one of them away.
both are extremely tough, but Shuu is worse, since his defense is high and he
cannot be damaged by long-range attacks.
Once you defeat Bian, he takes his defeat pretty well; for him, his gene-
ration's turn is over, and the future is yours to build. He urges you not to
forget one thing: no matter how peaceful things may be, the time to fight is
always sure to come, and it's your duty to face the upcoming threats.
It's okay to seek peace, but you can't indulge yourself in it; for as long
as there are things worth defending you have to keep the courage and strenght
to defend them. Before dying, Bian only regrets his daughter Ryuune never got
to meet you.
Kouji feels like Bian did manipulate them from beginning to end; Duke says
people who try to guide others' fates do affect everyone else to some extent,
and those who forget it become egotists. Judou puts an end to this depressing
talk, and reminds everyone it's over... Time to go back home.
Epilogue
--------
Since the death of Bian Zoldark and his Valcion, the Divine Crusaders came
to an end. Once again, the world returned to a routine of peace.
The Super Robots and pilots who put an end to the fighting returned, each,
to the places they came from. But Bian's last words were still held in their
hearts: one day, another war, just like this one, will come. Maybe in a year,
maybe in a hundred years...
Even if this day comes, today's momentaneous peace is still most valuable.
So, for now, let the kind-hearted warriors enjoy this moment of peace...
HELP NEEDED------------------------------------------------------------------
I will place in this section any doubts I might have about the game.
Hopefully someone might be able to help me with them. More questions will be
posted as they arise.
- No questions right now...
CONTACT INFORMATION----------------------------------------------------------
If anyone has questions, comments or suggestions to make, please feel free
to mail me at the address written on the beginning of this document (which is
csmori@hotmail.com). Before doing that, however, please pay attention to the
following requests/facts:
- Write "FAQ" as your subject, just so I can separate your mail from junk
mail and things alike.
- Given the amount of mail I receive, I probably won't be able to respond
all e-mails. So, if you receive no response, it doesn't mean it hasn't been
received and/or read. Don't send it over and over.
- I'm aware of the 'canonical' names for mechs and characters from all the
Gundam series; I just happen not to agree with some of them. Don't ask me
to change that. However, please let me know the *official* names for any
series, especially non-Gundam ones.
- Feel free to let me know if I made grammar mistakes or anything like that.
I could use some english advice, and it'd only help the quality of the text.
- Don't ask me where you can get "romz". If it depends on me, you won't get
them. You're on your own there.
- As a matter of fact, don't ask me anything about ROMs, emulators or
patches, nor complain to me if you can't run it on your computer.
- No 'l33t' language please. I just hate it.
Well, if you still think you can meet these requirements, go ahead and
write me!
