    Well. I apparently got the G-Bits. That whole bit mentioned on the site was probably just to get the whole package, Tifa included. Sweet!

    Mission 23 spoilers:
    Spoiler:

    Delicious. I gave Amuro the V2 Gundam. Quattro's in the GP03 (And kicks ass in it), Camille now uses the Nu Gundam, Judau has the Z Gundam since ZZ sucks without the FA parts (And that's only obtainable in easy mode), and Puru now has Gundam ZZ.

    Onec I unearth the Hi-Nu Gundam, I'm gonna have to shuffle things around some more. Gonna give V2 back to Usso when that happens. I gave ZZ to Puru just in case she needs to survive in some mission she's forced out.

    Edit: Nevermind. The G-Bits bit was for show.

    I'm liking the Gundam X music. At least I think that's what this is, I don't really know my Gundam outside of UC and Wing.

    Well, is it the one with X shaped wings, or the one with the moustache? this is important.

    Visually, the Riese doesn't do much for me. It's a slightly bigger Alt with orange bits on it. Just doesn't feel very inspired to me.

    The chassis is slightly bigger, the armaments are all at least twice as big as the old ones. Plus that tesla-drive arranged such that it's clearly meant to propel the mech forward instead of hold it up in the air. It's also a better shade of red. I mean this is like claiming Weissritter Rein is uninspired because it's just Weiss with silly bat wings and pink jewelry. It's not supposed to be a whole new mech, just a substantial upgrade.

    Visually it strikes me as being a lot more satisfying to drive into battle than the old Alt.

    I always got the impression that it dragged Kyosuke around and he just gritted his teeth during the acceleration.

    Looking back, on OG1 and 2, I do like how Kyosuke goes from thinking the Alt is a stupid design to being attached to his mech.

    Currently playing SRW A portable. One of the best "Grunt" units has to be Char's Gelgoog. With its weapons fully upgraded, its beam glaive and rifle are both rated at 6000 power. They're fairly accurate and in the right hands (Such as Quattro), the thing's hard to hit and crits really nice. It's really awesome for taking out later mid-sized grunts. They pack a ton of health.

    Best thing is, it's relatively cheap to upgrade its weapons. It only cost me like 41k for the final bit.

    15292. Not bad. Char's Gelgoog can sometimes almost hit that hard on a crit. I got GP03 at last, pulled it away from Kou's worthless hands and gave it to Amuro. Never been better.

    Of course, once I get Nu Gundam, I'm gonna have it change hands again. I really don't have any other high-leveled UC pilots... Kou and Shirou are my 2nd stringers. Aina's stats suck. I guess I could give Four a chance to do something.

    I should be getting Sazabi too. Quattro has enough kills for it. Same with Falguen MAFFU. Once I get Falguen, I'm gonna see how Maio and Kain's team move does in this game compared to MX Portable. If it's still borken and powerful, I'm ditching the other two Dragonars.

    the ez-8 would be crazy good if not for them getting rid of the parts that give stat bonuses based on the number of part slots the unit has.

    Pretty sure Impact had those too, primary reason why Shiro was so damn good. (aside from having a pretty damn good seishin list)

    That'd be an interesting move. I love how his best move has him randomly slide down a building. Even in space.

    FYI: Amuro completely rocks in the GP03.

    I messed up on those secrets on two playthroughs.

    The third playthrough of OG2 (which is almost done) I made sure to get Lamia's kill count high enough. I meticulously aimed for each requirement to get the Ashsaber.

    I got Vaisaga. Somehow.

    You got the better deal I think.

    Then again, Ashsaber is nice just because it actually makes Ring useful.

    Cheap Enable + Highest Love Bonus with Irm, who rocks = always useful.

    I was going to give Ashsaber to Viletta.

    The problem with Vaisaga is that only Lamia can use it, and Lamia is, in my opinion, better off in the Angelg. If I could give the Vaisaga to, say, Katina or Kai, it would be awesome.

    Yeah, I usually made my Lamia all melee, and just accepted the fact that she'd be meh in Angelg and then suddenly become horrendously overpowered with the Vaisaga.

    As for Ring, her only problem is her godawful morale gains make any weapon with a requirement of higher than 110 morale a total lost cause. (Which, sadly, means she's terrible in her Huckebein)

    During that one chapter where ypu start off with Lamia and Arado, and end up facing Axel before everyone else shows up, you need to have Lamia fight Axel twice and ONLY TWICE! Did you do this?
