Edit: Oh, and the reason Gilliam is same Gilliam in every universe is due to him being a dimensional traveler, or "Time Diver", as the SRW terminology goes. You know, kinda like the cast of Sliders, from back in the day.
What? Gilliam's not the Time Diver, Ingram/Cobray is.

Yeah. Gilliam
is from the same dimension as Lemon and Axel. Only reason he crossed over was so he couldn't be used to bring others across dimensions
Which now makes me wonder...
If the dimension the Shadow Mirrors come from was simply a alternate reality centering around "What if Excellen didn't survive the crash as a child",then who is the dimension A's Gilliam? And what happened to dimension A's Lemon
Also, OG isn't seperate from the other universes. Masaki knows Char personally.
wait, they actually reference Char in one of the OG games?
In OG2, when Masaki nick-names Sleigh "Comet" to go along with Ibis' "Shooting-Star".
That was a simple in-joke as far as I can tell.
Every character except Gilliam and Ingram/Cobray seem to be exclusive to their universes, except in Ingram's case he's a clone that seems to be aware of himself across the multiverse, and Cobray... well, he ends up being the new Time Diver.

Regarding all that.
Gilliam doesn't even come from the Shadow Mirror-verse, though he stopped there a while. He came from (I -think-) at least one other SRW game and most definitely Hero Senki, an SNES RPG he was in. Gilliam's a member of your party in his trademark Gespenst for most of the game until he recovers his memory and ends up being the villain. He gets whooped and I guess he feels remorse over what he did, leading to the good Gilliam we see now.
Shadow-mirror verse is indeed all you mentioned, but apparently quite a bit more fucked up than that. Also, there seems to be only ONE Gilliam.
Does the Alpha series ever give any reason why Elzam is dressed up as Ratsel? Sure in OG he's a criminal in hiding, but what about Alpha?
I think it just started out as a joking reference to Char's be-sunglassed "secret identity" as Quatro Bajina from Zeta Gundam, and then they just kept it in OG2. It makes sense, given how Elzam loves to personalize his mechs with custom paintjobs, much as Char does.
not to mention though that he tends to cancel it out by shouting TROMBE! all the time

Cobray's job as a Time Diver is to maintain the balance of the various dimensions. Gilliam is just a dimensional hopper trying to atone for his past crimes, and ends up in the OG universe.

I wonder if Banpresto ever settled its legal troubles with Winkysoft? I hope so, because I'd like to see the Maso Kishin and other La Gias mechs in an SRW game again.
wound up haivng no more SP at all when trying to fight Augija. got her down to 15,000 something, and she still didn't retreat
Have you been watching your Pilot points for the big 100 to get SP Regen? you uh.....kind of need it.
how bad am I going to need it. Im like at episode 24 now
Pretty badly.
fuck
looks like it's time to start saving...
at what point am I going to start running into trouble, any ideas? generally I have at least two healers via the two resupply and two repair modules I have on two of my units

You'll start running into HP regenerating bosses that don't run away after X turns. SP Regen is a godsend for these missions. Get it, love it, and cherish it.

hmm, is that in either route? I've been sticking with Kyosuke pretty much. I did hear Latooni talking about encountering Ouka when everyone met back up

Ah, then you'll probably run into Thrudegemir/Galgau/Soulgain before too long.
Best way to get PP? Kill things, even ones you really don't "view as a threat to your mission" also, remember to use the Seishin that give more more EXP and Cash! They are extremely underrated.
Goddamit I hate the Ryusei route, I'm rememded now of how much the early missions suck. now how the hell am I suppose to stop 1 of the lions from reaching where the hagane is docked if there's so many, in addition to me having to cut through so many trying to make sure I kill all of them by turn 5 to get the BM? I don't remember this mission being so tough on the GBA.
Also, what'd be the best means of building up PP quickly?
looks like a lot of my guys range from 40+ to 75 PP (Arado takes that fortunate honor).
unfortunately, Russel has 0
Chain Attacks tend to be really really good for me for getting lots of PP in a single blast, for the pilots that have that.
Also, kitting somebody up to be a counter-attacking machine is a great way to level somebody up from zero to hero really quickly. For Russell, getting him inside some armor machine with a lower HP level (like a kitted-out Schutzwald) with a decent long-range weapon (say, the native Twin Beam Cannon on the Schutz or the Boost Hammer if you're all about the secret weapons) works wonders -- trigger Guard, charge forward, and let the carnage begin.
Granted, dodging hits is better than taking hits, but Russell's all about being tough as nails.
EDIT: Map weapons for the win, too -- Giganscudo + Strike + lots of grunts = mondo cash and PP.
EDIT 2: I think the SP issue really only starts cropping up once you're in the 30s, stage-wise. You've got some time to farm and even then with smart play you should be okay.
Holy fuck, they made those stupid early Ryusei missions a LOT harder in OGs.
I have NO recollection there were this many planes and Lions in Mission 8. (The one where you can't let an enemy get to the dock.)
My question is....Why? Why make it harder? (the damn Ryusei route, early on, was hard enough.) what? to make some stupid attempt for the ATX team to become more popular because their route isn't assrapingly hard? people overrate Excellen and Kyosuke enough. and I'm unsure if they kept in the "die and get more moines to spend" trick for the OG1 section.
What bugs me is this, Towards the end of OG1 on the Ryusei route, you Still get Zengar back and have some time to pump a bit of money into his HP/Armor and Zankantou, but on the Kyosuke route, you just outright don't get access to Variable Formation. I don't understand that. Why can't it be like they just don't approve pattern OOC until about the time Zengar rejoins in the Ryusei Route?
Also, OG isn't seperate from the other universes. Masaki knows Char personally.
wait, they actually reference Char in one of the OG games?
In OG2, when Masaki nick-names Sleigh "Comet" to go along with Ibis' "Shooting-Star".

is from the same dimension as Lemon and Axel. Only reason he crossed over was so he couldn't be used to bring others across dimensions

I can't believe I'm going to have to do the awful Kyosuke route the first playthrough just because someone at Banpresto thought it be a smart idea to make the Ryusei route harder than it allready is at the begiining of it.

Best way to get PP, aside from killing a lot of stuff fast, is Battle Masteries.
A different, slower, more boring (and maybe kinda cheating) way to get PP is forgetting all about the Battle Masteries and get bunches of Game Overs so you can replay missions over and over again, building up your PP (and experience points and money).

Didn't he sleep with Viletta, too? Or was that just in a doujin-universe?
Probably, but in the doujin-universe, apparently Arado's the one who sleeps with just about everyone.
What can I say? Fucker loves his horse.
Man, for a clone of a guy, Viletta is entirely too hot. I'm just sayin', is all.

Gilliam's pre-battle conversations with the Shadow Mirror leaders in the late game missions demonstrate that this is not the case.
