Instead of going for zeta/zz I would do something completely different, and also avoid reusing characters that have seen enough of the spotlight and yes I'm talking about Char, make new characters or do something like what they did with Challia Bull which was one of the few things that I liked about Gqux.

A couple of over-spec secret projects for shadowy intelligence operatives (which, may I remind you, were obliterated in seconds by a OYW-vintage mobile armor) are not the equivalent of an army capable of facing Zeon, which has the ability to freely operate even on Earth.

populations have been moved around so much due to the migration to space colonies and the OYW that you have stuff like gingers living in SE Asia. There's a good chance the Middle East of Universal Century is a weird mix of peoples we wouldn't expect to be living in the Middle East.

rating GQ is so weird to me. I have it at C tier right below 0083 but above Witch but I think it might dip more. I was really entertained while watching it but it feels more like a sugar overload without really ANY substance at all that I feel kinda disgusted now. I'm not really fond of it but it is pretty much the only gundam show that I was waiting for week after week to watch. Most others I just paused and waited for the whole series to come out to finish it up.

>>23383669 (OP)
I think we need to free Amuro's poor soul from this universe. Create a Zeknova to send the GQuuuuuuX core to his original resting place so he can truly rest.

>>23383763

If they were that powerless, Gihren would've attacked them instead of waiting.
Hell, the show made it clear that Zeon is also in a shitty state with Kycilia having to beg Side 6 for Yomagn'tho's funding and then destroying all the Big Zams and A Baoa Qu, which is a massive blow to Zeon's ability to fight.

Other than the flashbacks, when do we see the Federation having any sort of military power whatsoever? The story makes it explicit by their complete absence by 0085.

>If they were that powerless, Gihren would've attacked them instead of waiting.
Waiting for what? The present danger to his power was Kycillia, not the Federation.

>Zeon is also in a shitty state with Kycilia having to beg Side 6 for Yomagn'tho's funding
She had to do that because she was sequestered in Granada. Or what, was she going to ask Zeon's central government to fund her secret Newtype weapon?

>and then destroying all the Big Zams and A Baoa Qu, which is a massive blow to Zeon's ability to fight.
What part of "swiftly destroying any possible opposition during a coup d'etat" you fail to understand?
And even with those losses, they are in much better shape than the Federation, which has a grand total of zero forces in space.

>>23383669 (OP)
Side 6 and Zeon trying to use the EFF as a ground for a proxy war as the two vie for greater control, following the fallout of the Yomagn'tho being a doomsday device instead of what Side 6 was promised. Either focus on an Earthnoid who wants the two powers to fuck off, or a Side 6/Zeon citizen dissatisfied with the prospect of having to go fight a war on Earth soil for the sole benefit of their corrupt government. Or have both as duetragonists.

So all you got is your headcanon, got it.
>She had to do that because she was sequestered in Granada. Or what, was she going to ask Zeon's central government to fund her secret Newtype weapon?
Yes. Hell, it was an open secret, considering the situation with GFreD.

>>23384110
Tell me, then. How powerful are the Federation's forces in 0085 if Zeon's national armed forces (rather than old remnants) can freely move around the oceans?
How come the Federation can't do or say anything when Zeon builds a gigantic something-or-other satellite in low Earth orbit?

If they have any power to speak of, where are they? What are their capabilities, other than some shitty terrorists that had Gihren's support?

>Yes.
And then what? Allow Gihren's people to sabotage the whole thing?

>>23384155
The events of GQuX are an ample excuse to have Zeon withdraw their current presence from Earth out of pure necessity. From there, the Federation rebuilding their military isn't a huge stretch, you just need to set it several years after 0085.

>>23384209
>The events of GQuX are an ample excuse to have Zeon withdraw their current presence from Earth out of pure necessity.
It's the other way around. The A Baoa Qu disaster is an excuse for Zeon to keep sending resources from Earth to Side 3. If everything is working out (ie. the Federation is effectively neutered), why would they leave?

>From there, the Federation rebuilding their military isn't a huge stretch
It's implied that they have their hands busy with the post-British reconstruction. In fact, that's the official excuse for the Solar Ray's development.

>>23384105
>Side 6 and Zeon trying to use the EFF as a ground for a proxy war as the two vie for greater control, following the fallout of the Yomagn'tho being a doomsday device instead of what Side 6 was promised.
Remove the EFF from the picture and just have Side 6 becoming spacenoid Showa, with Earth as China.

>>23384228
>If everything is working out (ie. the Federation is effectively neutered), why would they leave?
Internal strife during a regime change and a loss of military strength due to the brief civil war making a maintained presence on Earth impractical. The show races to Sayla's corronation, but I would be surprised if it was quite as smooth as all that. I especially doubt that all the other forces in space are happy with Zeon after what happened.

>It's implied that they have their hands busy with the post-British reconstruction. In fact, that's the official excuse for the Solar Ray's development.
I could see the EFF dropping reconstruction efforts outside of key locations in favor of militarization, if the opportunity arose.

Generally speaking, the main thing I disagree on is that the EFF would be a totally irrelevant factor in any follow-up story, whatever form their influence would take. Too much happened to mess with the status quo.

Low stakes Machu adventures while they occasionally fight in mobile suits and occasionally uncover some political plots. Rest of it is character interactions.
The characters were the fun part of Gqux, not the worldbuilding.

>>23384253
Side 6 was never a threat to Zeon in the first place considering they only have a tiny military presence because Zeon sold them surplus Zakus and captured EF warships in the first place. Challia entering a Side 6 cylinder and parking the Sodon in the upper atmosphere is proof of this.

The main reason Side 6 was consulted for the project is because they are the strongest economy post-OYW. EFF lost all its colony and space presence and is isolationist now as they need to rework their economy to function without importing from the sides it once controlled. Zeon is still spread wide and economically slow to recover even if they won. Side 6 was neutral and escaped being demolished like the rest of the Sides during the war, so for most intents Side 6 is in the best place to be shouldering any space-based development/recovery/reconstruction project.

>>23384228
>It's implied that they have their hands busy with the post-British reconstruction.
In this timeline the Feds are spending less than in prime UC because they no longer have to maintain a space fleet AND reconstruct Sides 1, 2, 4, and 5. I can buy that they're choosing to focus on Earth, but not that they're financially broke, so they should have the power to rise up again later. Earth is still resource-rich.

>>23384263
>the main thing I disagree on is that the EFF would be a totally irrelevant factor in any follow-up story, whatever form their influence would take. Too much happened to mess with the status quo.
Precisely, but your mistake is thinking that the Federation is somehow a perennial hegemonic presence in the UC, when in fact its complete demise is more likely than the possibility of them ever returning from its "rump state" present in Quax's 0085.

Even in the main timeline, the Federation is a bloated mess whose power diminishes in every subsequent story, to the point where Zanscare occupied Europe to little opposition during Victory.
In Quax, they outright lost the One Year War. Just like in the empires of old, it comes to reason that they would disintegrate even faster in the wake of such a catastrophic defeat.

>>23384319
What are the chances of an earth federation even continually existing after losing the war? Couldn't it just splinter back into nationstates or state unions?

>>23384328
>What are the chances of an earth federation even continually existing after losing the war? Couldn't it just splinter back into nationstates or state unions?
Yes, this is precisely what I have been arguing in all of these threads. But some people are just hung on the nebulous concept of "the Federation", rather than thinking of what might happen to the UC afterwards.

>>23384319
Earth undergoing a full-on Balkanization would make plenty of sense, too, to be honest. Realistically, I can't see totally hostile relations between any of the Balkanized states whilst the threat from space exists, though, so I'd expect some sort of economic or military union.

>>23384349
>Realistically, I can't see totally hostile relations between any of the Balkanized states whilst the threat from space exists
This assumes that Zeon wouldn't try to make allies with the newly splintered states of Earth.

>so I'd expect some sort of economic or military union.
Economic-military alliances have been a thing since time immemorial, from the Greek city-states joining in leagues to today's NATO. And these have proven to be a better compact than centralized polities.

>>23384365
>This assumes that Zeon wouldn't try to make allies with the newly splintered states of Earth.
Fair point. You could have spliter nations which are anti-Zeon and pro-Zeon as a central conflict (likely the formerly occupied territories allying themselves).

>>23384311
>Side 6 was never a threat to Zeon in the first place
>is because they are the strongest economy post-OYW.
Come on, Anon. Have some imagination. Any state with a sufficiently strong economy will eventually pour resources into its armed forces. If, as you argue, Zeon is weakened and Side 6 still has the human and monetary capital, what makes you think they wouldn't be setting the rules?
Germany, Japan and the US developed beyond the old European powers in the first half of the 20th century (Austria, Turkey, even the UK). It's the same logic here: after the crisis of 0085, Side 6 becomes strong enough that it can tell Zeon to shove its SOFA agreement where the sun don't shine and begin amassing an army of their own, rather than depend on war surplus. They have the money, people and technology to do it, while everyone else is falling behind.

>so they should have the power to rise up again later

>>23384390
They don't have resources though. They're just space colonies. How are they gonna get the raw material to build a fleet when Zeon still controls all the asteroids and part of earth?

>>23383669 (OP)
Something dealing with the inevitable fallout of the now drastically weakened zeon and the growing threat of the Olympians. Plus Paptimus showing up at some point. Basically Gquux Zeta.

>>23384407
>They don't have resources though. They're just space colonies.
>How are they gonna get the raw material to build a fleet when Zeon still controls all the asteroids and part of earth?
You know how many asteroids are out there? This is what the Vera Rubin observatory in Chile picked up in a single week observing a narrow band of space.

>>23384155
>Tell me, then. How powerful are the Federation's forces in 0085 if Zeon's national armed forces (rather than old remnants) can freely move around the oceans?
We got no idea, because it wasn't shown. And it wasn't shown because it had nothing to do with the story. Simple, right?
Thing is, we barely had seen anything on Zeon side as well. You can't tell me that after Gelgoog all they've spammed are Big Zams and Gyans.
As for how Chalia got to Earth and back, it could be a number of things, including a EF classic: bribe.
>How come the Federation can't do or say anything when Zeon builds a gigantic something-or-other satellite in low Earth orbit?
Because they got no good enough reason to do anything except for sending a concerned letter.
>And then what? Allow Gihren's people to sabotage the whole thing?
You mean Gihren would sabotage building a giant superweapon that he was aware of even before that? Literally nothing would change.
The truth is, Zeon needed external support to make it, because they were broke after the war of independance. There's a good reason why Side 6 officials looked down on them.

>>23384421
>the now drastically weakened zeon
Its central government is stronger than before, now that there's no more dispute between the Zabi siblings. Whatever was lost with Yomagn'tho can be rebuilt.

>and the growing threat of the Olympians
A bunch of shitters doing Gihren's bidding that got defeated in an instant? Even aliens are a bigger threat.

>>23384440
>Whatever was lost with Yomagn'tho can be rebuilt.
Given that Zeon were broke before the construction of the Yomagn'tho, where would they find the capital to rebuild their lost military assets?

>>23384432
>And it wasn't shown because it had nothing to do with the story.
Stories are supposed to be consistent with themselves. If the characters go to Earth and there's no Federation presence and plenty of Zeon's, this tells the audience that the former has little power and the latter has plenty.

>You can't tell me that after Gelgoog all they've spammed are Big Zams and Gyans.
Those were the personal guards of Gihren and Kycilia, respectively. In all likelihood, the regular army is gradually being shifted from Zakus to Gelgoogs, like how the US and other air forces are changing their old F-16s and F-18s to F-35s as soon as they come off the plant.

>As for how Chalia got to Earth and back, it could be a number of things
You don't need to come up with contrived reasons when it was explained by "Khara's President" on Twitter: Zeon has a large military presence on Earth for geopolitical reasons. Therefore, the Federation can't do much to stop them ("set up in a semi-forceful manner").

>Because they got no good enough reason to do anything except for sending a concerned letter.
Don't be stupid. Why wouldn't they send even a small contingent of ships to do even basic observation, if they had the ability to do so? Because... (you should be able to solve this).

>There's a good reason why Side 6 officials looked down on them.
And yet they didn't have the national power to stop Zeon from intruding. Pride means nothing if you don't have the force to sustain it.

>>23384390
>what makes you think they wouldn't be setting the rules?
Because they're fucking helpless when Zeon infringed on their sovereignty by parking a fucking warship in their city. They had neither the political clout nor the military threat to make the Sodon get the fuck out.

>It's the same logic here: after the crisis of 0085, Side 6 becomes strong enough that it can tell Zeon to shove its SOFA agreement where the sun don't shine and begin amassing an army of their own, rather than depend on war surplus. They have the money, people and technology to do it, while everyone else is falling behind.
Zeon knows how long it'll take because Zeon themselves broke away from the Feds and built up their military on their own. Side 6 building up arms is the same fucking situation 27 years later. While Zeon has the military advantage, they SHOULD smite Side 6 before they become a problem. The problem is why in the fuck would Zeon sit idly by and wait for Side 6 to raise an army to rival Zeon in the first place? It took 20 fucking years of slow and gradual buildup for Zeon to create a military that could challenge the EF, and are they going to just let Side 6 do the same fucking thing in front of their eyes? Saying that's reasonable is like saying it's reasonable for a cop to see a criminal declare "I'm going to kill you" and do absolutely nothing while the criminal spends 40 minutes sharpening a spoon into a shiv.

>>23384440
We already know the entire reason gquux was set before Paptimus shows up is because he would have soloed the setting. You really think Sayla's Zeon wouldn't struggle with him?

>>23384513
>We already know the entire reason gquux was set before Paptimus shows up is because he would have soloed the setting.
As I said before, that's Tsurumaki fangirling about Scirocco. You ought to have more imagination than staying confined to the shackles of past stories.

>>23384499
>Zeon infringed on their sovereignty
I hate speedwatchers so goddamn much. Zeon and Side 6 are under a Statute Of Forces Agreement, which in practice means that the former's military can come and go at their pleasure.

>They had neither the political clout nor the military threat to make the Sodon get the fuck out.
I'm arguing about a hypothetical future, where Side 6 has the ability to tell Zeon to beat it, rather than the present 0085. Or they could use less coercive means at the start. "If you want this easy loan, we'll first renegotiate the SOFA".

>The problem is why in the fuck would Zeon sit idly by and wait for Side 6 to raise an army to rival Zeon in the first place? It took 20 fucking years of slow and gradual buildup for Zeon to create a military that could challenge the EF, and are they going to just let Side 6 do the same fucking thing in front of their eyes?
Usually, it's not that they "let them", but rather that the older state has other priorities to handle. Also, national pride: "what, you really think those puny upstarts can possibly challenge us?!", a paradigm that has happened countless times in history.

>Saying that's reasonable is like saying it's reasonable for a cop to see a criminal declare "I'm going to kill you" and do absolutely nothing while the criminal spends 40 minutes sharpening a spoon into a shiv.

This is fucking silly. There are legitimate reasons for another nation's warship to move through your territory such as to get to a port for docking and resupply, or because it's a legitimate and commonly used travel route. Parking a warship inside the goddamn city hanging above everyone's heads is NOT the intended use of SOFA and is absolutely meant to exert pressure on Side 6 administration.

>theoretical scenario
Not touching that with a ten foot pole. You might as well just imagine any scenario where Side 6 can win.

>Usually, it's not that they "let them", but rather that the older state has other priorities to handle. Also, national pride: "what, you really think those puny upstarts can possibly challenge us?!", a paradigm that has happened countless times in history.
The Federation had the excuse of being generally staffed by complete idiots and not being very experienced in space warfare, minovsky ECM, and apparently really poor intelligence service. Unless Zeon is going to be just as idiotic, it seems unlikely they're not going to notice the external signs of Side 6 gearing up because certain things like mobile suit trials and warship shakedown cruises have to be done out in space at some point.

>Lousy example. Nation states are slow-moving organizations, with dozens of stakeholders.
The fact that it's slow-moving doesn't change how obvious it is.

>>23383669 (OP)
Considering how much has changed, they can't just remake Zeta/ZZ. I would lean into the mecha combat arenas and spotlight those. Use it as an analogue to F1 racing or something and tie it into weapons development that leads to laying the groundwork for a future conflict.

Or just go to Mars.

>>23384696
>There are legitimate reasons for another nation's warship to move through your territory such as to get to a port for docking and resupply, or because it's a legitimate and commonly used travel route.
That isn't what a SOFA is for. Those you are describing are called "Visiting Forces Agreements". SOFAs are described by some as "soft occupations", since they give the outside forces a large amount of leeway, including extraterritoriality and immunity from local prosecution.

>Parking a warship inside the goddamn city hanging above everyone's heads is NOT the intended use of SOFA and is absolutely meant to exert pressure on Side 6 administration.
The series itself is telling us that Izuma was within Zeon's purview. What Challia did is basically a "move first, let the diplomats solve it later" situation.

>not being very experienced in space warfare, minovsky ECM, and apparently really poor intelligence service
Don't be ignorant. The Federation had a space navy for decades before Zeon began to militarize. They just ran behind with the times when MS appeared on the scene. Think of the paradigm shift that aircraft carriers (and later guided missiles) brought to a service that emphasized bulky, heavily armored ships.

>Unless Zeon is going to be just as idiotic
>The fact that it's slow-moving doesn't change how obvious it is.
You don't need idiocy, just any (internal or external) consideration that might allow a hypothetical foe to gain an advantage.
This is the same as asking why the UK and France didn't stop Hitler from amassing a huge army in flagrant disregard for existing treaties.

>Not touching that with a ten foot pole. You might as well just imagine any scenario where Side 6 can win.
Then what the fuck are you even doing in this thread, you absolute moron? The point is imagining a sequel to Quax.

>>23383742

>>23384848
>I can totally imagine the Feds are eager to gain back control over space now that the Zabi’s are gone
Did you miss the whole discussion we had in this thread that the Federation in Quax is a non-entity, closer to a rump empire on the brink of splintering for good than anything capable of "taking space back"?

Are there/would there be any Spacenoid-led movements to get the remaining population off of Earth in the GQuuuuuux timeline, similar to AEUG, or does that not happen with Earth's total lack of influence over any of the colonies?

>>23383669 (OP)
I got a lot of ZZ feeling from GQ in a good way.
I'd have Machu and Nyaan go on an adventure with the Qx and the glider they were going to buy for Shuji, exploring different colonies.
I'm one of the few weirdos on Earth who likes the Moon Moon arc in ZZ, for being pure 80's sci-fi adventure. Just an imaginative premise about how life might evolve in outer space, and the ZZ crew encountering that adventure.
G-Reco also has a similar feeling when they go to the Venus Globe, just a completely far out and fun sci-fi premise.
Machu and Nyaan would explore the solar system and fight in monster of the week mobile suit battles, Nyaan would get a new mobile suit of her own (something really unique to suit her), maybe even expand the Clan Battle premise, where the two of them are traveling to different colonies to participate in Clan Battles for money.
They could be chased by different factions, bounty hunters, etc.
Their ultimate goal is to find Shuji.
Watched over by Amuro.
An episode where they visit Char and Lalah, and maybe Char joins them for a little while (I wouldn't have too much Lalah - she's an important character to me and I want her to be mysterious - so maybe she has business at home)
Follow up on all the major characters like Chalia, Xavier, Comoli, Artesia, etc. etc.

Slight implication that the GQuuuuuuX allows Machu and Nyaan to travel between different universes. So they're not just exploring the solar system, they're exploring multiple versions of the same solar system: although keep this subtle. It's not a completely important idea, and I'd want a sequel to feel a little more grounded (even if it's secretly a crazy dimension hopping story).

Neither Machu nor Nyaan get a love interest, and they remain MAVs throughout the show.
At the end of the show Shuji (who is really a kind of Newtype spirit) agrees to incarnate as Machu's child.
This leaves Machu on a quest to find a (real/physical) husband.

Given that Yomagn'tho effectively transports matter between the GQux timeline and the one that Lalah came from, the sequel would be about a group of Gihren loyalists who survived A Baoa Qu getting transported to Lalah's original timeline.
From there, it'd be grunt tomfoolery and such, maybe even have to deal with being hunted down by a titans Amuro.
Could even have this be the "Scirocco wins" timeline or something.

0087. Zeon has seized near complete control over the earth sphere. The various Zeknova incidents have spurred on the spread and popularization of Newtype ideology. Spacenoids declare themselves the evolution of humanity believing that they too can gain the power to transcend time and space like the mysterious Newtypes at the center of the Zeknova incidents. This provides an ideological justification for the exploitation and oppression of those declared "oldtypes", mainly the inhabitants of countries and colonies who maintained neutrality or sided with the EFF during the one year war. Those who instigate and benefit from this economic exploitation form a Newtype elitist faction within Zeon. Artesia is unable to push back against their growing influence as a mere figurehead as the elitist faction seeks to expand their influence over all of Zeon.
The growing resentment against Zeon causes the numbers of the EFF remnants to grow and spur them to action. On earth, a regular young girl gets caught up in a battle between Zeon soldiers and EFF remnants who were covertly transporting a new experimental mobile suit. During the confusion of the battle the girl ends up before new MS, the "Blue Terror" equipped with the enigmatic EXAM system said to allow even regular humans to compete with the seemingly invincible Newtypes. In the girls heart boils a deep resentment for "Newtypes", her desire to "destroy" them is the same as the one engraved in the EXAM system.
Are Newtypes espers? Aces? The evolution of humanity or mutants? Do they see the future or delusions?
Mobile Suit Gundam Gquuuuuux Side Story: The Blue Destiny

Just chalk the whole thing up as a mistake and move on


But at gunpoint, just make a story that takes place in this new setting that has nothing to do with anybody from OG 0079/Zeta, and absolutely fucking nothing to do with multiverse stuff

I would just do what I really want, and make a cheesy by the book bond movie staring Challia.
>Queen Sayla via Ramba Ral, who is our M, orders Challia to investage a potential threat to the stability of earth sphere
>Intel says Veteran Federation hardliners Gene Colin and Jamitov are planning a coup of the federation govnment via an underground organization known as the titans
>Chalia has to go to earth and rendezvous with Kai Shiden
>once he meets up with Kai, he receives information on where the titans are actually operating
>during the course of his mission he uncovers the group, but finds out that there is another Man Jupiter, Paptimus, and he's the true power behind the Titans sudden rise.
>Final act is Chalia Taking down Paptimus
>Challia has to download the information of the computers in the base and escape
>in the scenes leading up to the final confrontation with paptimus Chalia sets bombs to blow up the titans base and its mobile suits saying this place doesn't need to exist
>rigs every suit but the one he's planning escaping on with explosives
>Paptimus gets there, chalia escapes in his stolen suit
>Paptimus jumps in the O to chase him
>final fight Chalia is getting overpowered by the O
>looks like Challia is fucked
>suddenly paptimus hears laughing over the coms
>here's chalia say "times up"
>Challia sets his mobile suit on a collision course with the O and ejects before impacts
>paptimus is extremely confused and thinks what ever chalia just did failed
>rigged explosives from earlier go off both at the titans base and on the O while Chalia is parachuting away
the end

Is GQuuuuux set in Strangereal or Elsewyre?

go full on the clan battle, you can make then small one shots of pilots getting over horrors the OYW

As GQuuuuuux is Charwank, I think any sequel should be Jeridwank. The main difference being that Jerid getting a face-lift would be more novel.

I still chuckle when I remember the anime just straight up murdered Sean, and that like a week prior we learned he survived in the manga and was stuck doing Xabungle shenanigans.

>>23383669 (OP)
I wouldnt, I'd hope the public forgets that embarassment and release a good show in the actual UC instead

After the Yomagn'tho incident, the earth federation realized they had the perfect opportunity to strike at the now crippled Principality of Zeon, which has lost almost a third of its forces during a coup. Covertly, the Federation formed a secret special forces crew known as the Titans designed to perform hit and run jobs to cripple Zeon's forces.

Ray Garahau, the protagonist of the story, is a recent cadet enlisted into the Titans, tasked with field testing the Federations newest mobile suit, the Gundam Mk II.

tl;dr, basically Stardust Memories and Gundam Wing mixed into a blender.

total jovian victory by sirocco to prevent the eva-fication of gundam where he personally gasses all of the zeon colonies then drops them on earth, leading to a 50 Gundam X series.

I'll go for a sequel. I'd title it Mobile Suit Gundam G-Exor ("Exor" short for "Exorcist").

Backstory:

1. Due to the Earth Federation's failure to use Solomon against Granada in the One Year War caused by the first Zeknova, the EF suffered many secession movements in Earth, leaving only the Americas except for portions of South America south of Jaburo, Europe (including western Ukraine as Odessa is located there), the Korean Peninsula, and Japan under the EF.

2. That would change as in December UC 0086, a mysterious green light appeared in Japan. However, the details behind the origin of this light were concealed by the Murasame Labs and a month after that, the Earth Federation Forces garrison in Japan announced it would declare their allegiance to one of the nations created in Earth in UC 0080, the Tsardom of Vladivostok ruled by one Vladimir Volkov. As a result, Volkov proclaims the creation of the Tsardom of Earth, secretly at the suggestion of the ringleaders of the mutiny by the EFF garrison in Japan: Jamitov Hymen and Bask Om. The Tsardom starts a war of conquest and managed to reach the Ural Mountains, the eastern Black Sea coastline, the Persian Gulf coastline, and the Himalaya Mountains by October of UC 0087. This was achieved by using automated mobile suits that managed to overwhelm opposition they faced, especially as these mobile suits used by the Tsardom were only four meters in height.

3. However, with the assistance of mercenary groups and the Principality of Zeon, the Earth Federation Forces succeed in an operation in December UC 0087 to discover the weakness of the Tsardom's scarily innovative new mobile suits. In addition, the Tsarist forces stopped their advances but regardless of why, the EF and Zeon use this opportunity to apply what they learned from their joint operation and to shore up resources and gather new allies in ending the Tsardom's conquest.

The story proper starts in July of UC 0088 where Tsarist forces found that the EF and Zeon managed to reverse-engineer their vaunted mini mobile suits and are to test their prototype, the MMSX-01 G-Exor, in a facility managed by both the EF and Zeon in Hammerfest through a spy cell that infiltrated Hammerfest. While the Tsardom sends a strike team using the carrier Olkhon (a part of a lighter variant of the Himalaya-class carriers used by both the EF and the Tsarist forces) lead by an individual called "Iron Mask" by the EF and Zeon through reports from their operation in December UC 0087. At the same time, the Hammerfest base is hosting a field trip from a nearby high school; one sixteen-year-old student named Takeo Mestad, the son of the commander of the base, is among the students in the field trip and are unaware of the G-Exor. He feels “someone crying” and goes off on his own to know where the “crying” is coming from.

Upon reaching Hammerfest, "Iron Mask" personally leads the team to link up with the spy cell and to capture or destroy the G-Exor. Around this time, Takeo finds where the “crying” is coming from: the G-Exor. Just as when an EF guard catches him, the latter also catches one of the Tsarist spies, disguised as a Zeon soldier, with his radio. The spy and the EF soldier ultimately kill each other, causing the base to go into full alert and compromising not only the spy cell but also “Iron Mask’s” mission. When more guards appeared, Takeo immediately explained what happened and anticipated he would be talking to his father, Colonel Ragnar Mestad.

Despite the Hammerfest base now on full alert, the Tsarists press on with their attack in order to allow “Iron Mask” and those with him to escape. Seeing this attack is the first ship of the new Argama-class mobile assault ship, which was tasked to pick up the G-Exor after its test in Hammerfest. In the midst of this, Takeo is made to talk to his father about why he trespassed into where the G-Exor was kept with Takeo claiming he heard “crying” and despite showing concern, Ragnar acts like a soldier instead of being his father, which Takeo also anticipated. However, the Tsarists now launch their mobile suits from the Olkhon, with “Iron Mask” personally leading the attack in a mobile suit meant to coordinate with the automated ones.

Hearing that “Iron Mask” is personally leading the attack, Ragnar orders that the G-Excor be evacuated through the Mad Angler-class submarine stationed beneath the base and to buy time for that, the Argama launches the GFred Core Fighter and the Tsarist mobile suit captured in the December UC 0087 operation (they're respectively piloted by Nyaan and Amate "Machu" Yuzuriha). While he has Takeo accompany him to see the G-Excor, a Tsarist mobile suit attacks the area where the G-Excor was taken to with Ragnar among those killed. Angrily, and hearing the mysterious “crying” being more intense, Takeo rushed to board the G-Excor. To his surprise, the mobile suit was able to activate and with the assistance of the source of the “crying”, a girl who introduces herself to Takeo as Berah, Takeo eliminates the Tsarist mobile suits, unexpectedly assisting the Argama. Takeo is suddenly drawn to the war with only one goal: to investigate who Berah is.

What If Dragonar took place in Gundam?

>>23383673
Seconded.
It would be like encouraging parasitism.

It would still involve Char to an extent, so no. I've had enough of old character wank in AU fanfiction.
