Since this is the first time in the intermission screen, there’s a few things we should probably check out first. We’ll end up here after each mission, and we can do various maintenance things like traning our pilots and upgrading mecha.With each kill a pilot gets, they’ll receive some Pilot Points (PP), which can be use to upgrade stats or purchase special skills. These skills mainly deal with regenerating SP, gaining morale faster, but I’ll get into those later when I have enough to purchase them.There’s also a couple of returning skills that weren’t in the previous game. SP Regen is back, but there’s also a new skill called SP Get in which you receive 10 SP back after defeating an enemy.Also a new skill called Morale + Bonus replaces all the old morale skills, essentially combining all the effects of all the previous skills.
And the final thing to note is that there are now 8 slots for skills instead of the 6 of previous games.
What does this all mean? Given some skills can really break the game, more just means either this game will be very easy…or the later bosses will be a serious pain in the arse (like OG2).
In the skies above Myanmar, on Esther’s Transport…
Esther
So what are you guys doing here?
Quatre
We’re fighting to destroy the Earth Federation.
Esther
What? Wasn’t the whole point of the conflicts from last year to unite the Earth?
Duo
Yeah, uh, we kinda fucked up.
Quatre
Our fighting caused the big governments to ally up a bit too hastily.
Quatre
And the world is still messed up. The Colonies are still subjugated, and don’t get me started on the middle east.
Duo
And the EF just brands anyone who doesn’t agree with them as terrorists. Capiche?
Esther
Uh huh. So what’s your plan then?
Duo
Totally simple! We just need to take out the EF peacekeeping groups, OZ and A-LAWS.
Quatre
They don’t seem to get along so at least we have that going for us.
Duo
That’s why there quite a number of resistance groups around now, like Katharon.
Quatre
If only Heero and Setsuna were here…
Duo
Relax Quatre, I’m pretty sure they’re alive. When’s the last time a Gundam protagonist died?
Quatre
Err…Lockon?
Duo
….okay…but in animes they usually get replaced by a lookalike, right?
Duo
Speaking of which, Esther, in the case of my friend Quatre’s death, how would you like to pilot Sandrock Gundam?
Quatre
You’re so mean Duo. ;_;
Esther
Eh? We’ve got a transmission coming in…
Duo
Don’t answer it!
Esther
Too late!
Federation Soldier
Attention civilian vessel! We are searching for known Gundam terrorists in this area and are searching all passing ships!
Esther
It’s okay guys, I got this! My DM Buster licence is a free pass to get out of things like these!
Esther
This a civilian transport from Scott Labs. I’m DM Buster Esther Elhas on patrol.
Federation Soldier
Prepare to be boarded and searched!
Esther
W-wait! I said I’m a DM Buster!
Federation Soldier
We have orders to search ALL ships! No exceptions!
Duo
(Oh shit, she’s going to be branded a terrorist if they find us on her shuttle!)
Quatre
(Crowe’s gonna be so damn mad…)
Esther
What are you doing?! H-hey!
Duo
Trust me on this!
Duo
Attention Federation forces! This is the pilot of Gundam Deathscythe! We have seized control of this vessel and taken the girl hostage!
Federation Soldier
What?! You despicable terroists!
Duo
Our demands are simple! We want all Gundam Wing Yaoi removed from the Internet at once!
Duo
If they are not met we will execute the hostage!
Esther
E-execute?!
Quatre
What the hell are you doing?
Duo
Hey, we can get Esther off the hook this way. Besides, it’s worth a shot right?
Federation Soldier
The Federation does not negotiate with Terrorists! Prepare to be apprehended!
Duo
…Like I said, we totally can’t reason with these guys!
Quatre
Anyway Esther, you better run while you still can.
Duo
Yeah, he’ll be pretty damn pissed if he found out you were branded a terrorist because of us!
Esther
But you guys don’t stand a chance without me!
Duo
….
Quatre
….
Duo
You hear something Quatre?
Quatre
Nope.
Quatre
Now go! Or I’ll have to really shoot you!
Esther
B-but!
Quatre
Or will I have to spank you too!
Esther
Alright, I’m going! But don’t think you’ve heard the last of me!
Quatre
Sorry Esther…
Duo
Yo, you outta be apologizing to me! I’m the authorized spanker around here!
Quatre
This isn’t Frozen Teardrop.
Federation Soldier
Prepare to be apprehended, terrorist Gundams!
Quatre
…They’re all yours.
Duo
Such a gentleman, Quatre.
第２話： 逃亡者 Stage 2: Escapee
Turn 1
Quatre
Forgive us Esther….
Duo
Well at least this way it looks like Esther isn’t involved with us!
Federation Soldier
Gundams! You have one last chance to stand down before we use deadly force!
Duo
Get your shit together, they’re coming!
After the whole CB and Colony Gundam saga in Hakai Hen ,it looks like the Earth Federation has a zero tolerance policy on Gundams these days. Anyway Turn 1, and we have Duo and Quatre against a squad of 1 GN-XIII, 2 Enacts and 4 Helions. The SR Point is unknown at this stage.
Rushing straight in, Quatre scores a lucky critical for a kill.
End of turn 1.
Turn 2
Start of turn 2. Most of the enemies went for Duo this turn, too bad he sucks and can’t one shot them.
Okay I take that back.
End of turn 2.
During the counterattack the rest of the grunts get shredded.
That shiny new GN-XIII also eats some breast missiles!
Turn 3
Turn 3.
And boom he goes.
Upon defeating the initial enemies, an event occurs.
Quatre
I’m detecting new heat signatures appearing!
Duo
Dammit, who is it this time?
Mercenary
Captain! No sign of the prey, but we found 2 Gundams!
Mercenary Captain
Gundams eh? They look pretty beat up! I’m sure the Federation will pay handsomely for your Mobile Suits!
Duo
….and who might you be?
Mercenary Captain
Fangs of Dawn!
Quatre
Fangs of Dawn? As in the remnants of the WLF?
Duo
Hey Feds! I just found your wannabe terrorists!
Duo
Oh wait. I just finished killing them off. How fucking convenient.
Fangs of Dawn Captain
All forces, seize the Gundams!
Esther
I won’t let you!
Duo
Er…
Quatre
You didn’t fly away did you….
Duo
What the hell?! We told you already, if you’re seen with us, you’ll be labelled a terrorist!
Esther
Shut it Duo! I just happened to be flying along when I found two pussies being attacked by terroists! It’s my job as a good citizen to help out!
Duo
P-p-pussies?
Quatre
Don’t sweat it Duo. We really might need her help on this one.
Duo
Hey, now I’m fucking mad, okay? Don’t expect me to leave any for you, Esther!
After the initial enemies are gone, a whole bunch of reinforcements show up, along with Esther. The SR point is also revealed, destroy the Genocidron, who retreats at 6000 HP.
I put Iron Wall on Quatre and send him straight into the enemy pack.
End of turn 3.
Turn 4
Fangs of Dawn Soldier
Captain! We’re picking up incoming heat signatures!
Fangs of Dawn Captain
So you’re finally showing up eh?!
On turn 4 there’s an event…
…where Kallen and C.C show up.
Kallen
Well what do we have here…
C.C.
A bunch of idiots?
Kallen
I was talking about Duo and Quatre!
C.C.
Your point is?
Esther
That red knightmare….
Esther
OH. EM. GEEEEEEEEEE.
Esther
It’s the ONI of the Black Knights!
Kallen
Eh?!! O-oni??!
Esther
The Ace that can destroy 1,000 enemies with the bat of an eye!
Esther
And has the ferocity of a wild feral beast equal to her giant bosom!
Kallen
….
Esther
TEACH ME YOUR WAYS!!!
Kallen
Who told you all this?!
Esther
Crowe told me everything about you!
Kallen
Did he now?
Kallen
(Just what did that asshole say to her?!)
Fangs of Dawn Soldier
Captain! Confirming appearance of the prey!
Fangs of Dawn Captain
Black Knights…the Britannians will pay us well for your heads!
Duo
Guys, guys! Can we talk about this later?! We got terrorists hot on our asses!
Esther
Must end battle nowwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Here’s what the map looks like after they show up.
End of turn 4.
Turn 5
Start of turn 5. There’s only 5 enemies left including the Genocidron, and Esther took some dodgy hits last turn off like <20%’s zzzz
Turn 6
Turn 6.
End of turn 6. I had to use Vulcans to whittle the guy down to as close as 6000 as possible, so he’ll have to die next turn. Genocidron is looking to give free hugs, no thanks!
On turn 6, the mofo goes down to a well planned attack by Esther and Quatre
Duo
See ya later!
Fangs of Dawn Captain
A-a-aaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!
……
*Explosion*
Duo
Oh wait, you’re dead. Guess I won’t!
SR Point Get!
OZ base in France – Treize’s office
Treize
Did you hear? The Gundams have resurfaced.
Zechs
Unless it’s that kid who pilots the one with the wings, I’m not interested in dealing with these amateurs.
Treize
Oh? Is this a rivalry I’m sensing?
Zechs
Perhaps. You could call it a ‘Warrior’s Understanding’
Treize
Then perhaps it would please you to know that we never recovered his body. In which case you’ll undoubtedly cross paths with him again.
Treize
But down to business. I want you and Lt. Quattro to get a task force ready to deal with these rogue Gundams.
Treize
We’re already on the back foot with A-LAWS since they managed to wipe out Celestial Being last year and we can’t afford to let this opportunity slip by.
Zechs
Very well.
Quattro
(So they’ve started to move again…)
Back at Esther’s transport…
Esther
I can’t believe I’m talking to you in person! You’re my biggest idol! Please, teach me how to be just like you!
Kallen
Just like me? How so…?
Esther
Your inhuman fighting prowess! And how did you end up with such a large bosom?!
Kallen
(CROWEEEEEEEEEEEE! I’M GOING TO MURDER YOU!!)
Kallen
…Can you drop the whole idol thing and just be my friend?
Esther
B-but Crowe said…
Kallen
Listen, I don’t know what Crowe told you, but I’m just a normal person who fights for what they believe in.
Esther
O-okay…
Duo
So what have you two beautiful ladies been up to since you last graced my presence?
C.C.
Stuff.
Duo
…
C.C.
Do we really have time to be making friends Kallen?
Kallen
Hold off, witch!
Esther
Well I’m Esther Elhas, nice to meet you…err…
C.C.
C.C.
Esther
We’ve got some beds out back if you need some rest.
C.C.
I could use a nap. Thanks for your hospitality.
C.C.
Anyway, Kallen, I’m hungry, order some Pizza &@^ for me, will you?
Esther
(She’s pretty weird…just like Crowe said.)
Duo
Pizza &%@? Who the hell eats that crap? Support your local joint dammit!
Quatre
Sorry to hear about Zero by the way.
Kallen
Guys, it’s okay. I don’t want to talk about it. Even though my friends are rotting in some prison somewhere and my Guren is in shambles, I’ll keep fighting as long as there’s hope.
Duo
Heh, know exactly what you mean.
Duo
….Anyway its’ good to see more female pilots joining the roster! Bunking with Quatre in this cramped transport makes it feel all like a Yaoi manga, you know?
Kallen
Could’ve fooled me with those ponytails and high pitches voices though.
Duo
Ouch.
Esther
Where are you off to next? I can drop you off.
Kallen
Singapore. We’ve got a few jobs lined up so we can pay for our repairs and supplies.
Noticed you start parodying around with the dialogue in your screenshots. Seems like fun, so I came up with my own for the 2 at the bottom for this Stage 2.
Treize: Agent Quattro, should you or any of your Force be caught or killed (as seems quite probable in the near future), the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This tape will self-destruct in 5 seconds.
Quattro: *puts on shades and walks away while Mission Impossible Theme music plays*
Duo: Good to see more attractive girls joining the pilot roster. Always having to hang out with the Wing boys makes it feel like I’m being prepped for a role in a yaoi manga, y’know.
Kallen: But aren’t you and Quatre girls? I thought the long ponytail and the high-pitched voice were dead giveaways.
I’ve had to stop doing that for a few reasons, first it requires some knowledge as to what is happening in the conversation (which I don’t most of the time), and secondly it takes even more time to figure out something funny to say.
If you’re willing to contribute more I’ll happily cred you! 🙂
Duo – Uh oh! Looks like trouble…
Quatre – Crowe is gonna kill us if we let Esther get labeled as a terrorist!
Duo – Yeah… Crowe can be very scary when he’s angry.
Quatre – So that means get out of here Esther.
Esther – But you guys don’t stand a chance without me!
Duo – I’m going to pretend you didn’t say that.
Quatre – No arguing. Go now or I’ll shoot you down.
Esther – B-but!
Quatre – Must I spank you too?!
Esther – I’m going!
Quatre – Sorry Esther…
Duo – You sould be apologizing to me! I’m the one that spanks the ladies around here!
Quatre – This isn’t Frozen Teardrop.
Duo – Oh right.
Feddie – Halt in the name of JUSTICE you terrorist Gundams!
Quatre – …They’re all yours.
Duo – Such a gentleman.
-Later-
Mercenaries – Hey! Gundams… And they look beat up! We should capture and sell them!
Esther – Not so fast!
Quatre – Esther I told you to leave!
Duo – Yeah, what’s the deal? If you help us you’ll be labeled a terrorist!
Esther – Nonsense! I’m not helping you I’m helping the guys you just beat up!
Quatre – Esther…
Esther – So stand back while I do my duty!
Duo – Well I guess there’s no reasoning with her. She’s just as stubborn as that guy.
-Later-
Kallen – Well, well. Look what we have here.
C.C. – A bunch of idiots?
Kallen – I was talking about Duo and Quatre!
C.C. – I was wrong?
Esther – That KMF…. Oh… My… God.
Kallen – ?
Esther – It’s the ONI of the Black Knights! The Ace that can destroy 1,000 enemies with the bat of an eye and has the ferocity of a wild feral beast equal to her giant bosom! TEACH ME YOUR WAYS!
Kallen – O-Oni?
Esther – Crowe told me so much about you!
Kallen – …Did he now?
Esther – Must end battle now!!!
-Even later-
Esther – I can’t believe I’m talking to you in person! You’re my biggest idol! Please, teach me how to be just like you!
Kallen – Just like me? How so…?
Esther – Your inhuman fighting prowess and how did you end up with such a large bosom?!

Kallen – Crowe isn’t here, I am.
Esther – O-okay….
Duo – So what have you two beautiful ladies been up to since you last graced my presence?
C.C. – Stuff.
Duo – …
In the last skit Duo says bunking with Duo instead of Quatre.
You topic in gamefaqs seemed to get auto-locked. You may have to make a new one when you finish up with the Shin Mazinger Z Finale. How’s that going along anyway?

Great work on the skits, though you have Duo saying he’s a gentleman instead of Quatre when they fight the Feds.
@Dick
Thanks, fixed.
In the last skit Duo says bunking with Duo instead of Quatre.
You topic in gamefaqs seemed to get auto-locked. You may have to make a new one when you finish up with the Shin Mazinger Z Finale. How’s that going along anyway?
@Dick
Really? I guess it’s been a while.
The Mazinger finale should be done either today or tomorrow and I’ll make a new thread on GameFAQs when it’s out.
the translations are awesome XD
