This game was first released in the 12th month of the year 1998 and became an immediate hit with Gundam Fans around the globe. It was sold in two formats: a standalone Playstation title and a special limited edition Gundam 20th Anniversary bundle that included the game, a greeting card, and a T-shirt. The game was such a success that it was re-released in 2001 as a "Bandai The Best" title. Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack had a number of improvements over its predecessor Playstation title Mobile Suit Z-Gundam. Although it contained considerably fewer pilotable mobile suits, the game had far superior graphics and had significantly increased the number of attacks each mobile suit could execute. The game covers the storyline of the tv-episodes in Mobile Suit Gundam and the movie Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack. As such, all the pilotable mobile suits in the game are also from these two Gundam series. This FAQ will provide a stage by stage walkthrough of Story Mode, a detailed list of attacks (including suggested combos) for each mobile suit, tips and tricks for the game, and unlockable secrets. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [C] The Game There are three modes of gameplay in this game: Story Mode, Battle Mode, and Versus Mode. In Story Mode, you take on the role of either Amuro Ray or Char Aznable and play through a series of battles against the computer that follow the story line of Mobile Suit Gundam and Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack. When you first begin the game, only Amuro's Story will be accessable. However, once you complete Amuro's Story, Char's Story will become unlocked. In Battle Mode, you select any pilotable mobile suit and play against a series of 9 random battles. At the end of the 9 battles, a short cut-scene animation can be seen of the mobile suit you used to complete Battle Mode. Lastly, in Versus Mode, you select any pilotable mobile suit and your friend selects another pilotable mobile suit and you battle against each other to see who's superior. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [D] Mobile Suit Controls Each Mobile Suit has a total of 10 different attacks. In short range mode, you have 4 attacks: one primary weapon (usually a beam saber) and three different secondary weapons. Similarily, in long range mode, you have 4 attacks: one primary weapon (usually a beam rifle) and three different secondary weapons. In addition to these eight attacks, you also have 1 special attack for each short and long range modes. Each of the eight normal attacks with the exception of the primary short range weapon (beam saber) is limited by ammo. Ammo is refilled during the battle only when all of its existing ammo is used up. Special attacks can be executed only when the Special's Gauge (located under your Life Gauge) is filled up. This gauge fills up as the battle continues against your opponent's mobile suit. The best time to perform an attack against an enemy mobile suit is when the lock-on cross-hair turns from green to red. When the cross hair turns red it means that you are completely locked on to the opponent mobile suit and the chance of hitting your enemy has greatly increased. When the cross hair is green, the chance of hitting your enemy is lower. The time it takes for the cross-hair to lock-on (i.e. for the crosshair to turn red) varies between the different mobile suits, the condition of the mobile suit, and the distance between your mobile suit and the enemy mobile suit. Each attack can also be targetted towards a specific part of an enemy mobile suit: Head, Arm/Shield, Waist, or Leg. The destruction of each specific part of a mobile suit will give different penalties to the pilot of the damage mobile suit. Head = Increase the amount of time required until a lock-on is achieved by 2 Arm/Shield = Lose the ability to raise your shield/arm and for several mobile suits the ability to use several secondary weapons Waist = Lose the ability to use several secondary weapons Leg = Decrease the speed of your mobile suit by 1/2 The attributes of each mobile suit also affect the damage you deal with each attack. Armor = How well protected the mobile suit is Lock-on = How long it takes to lock-on to an enemy mobile suit Power = How damaging each attack of your mobile suit is Speed = How fast the mobile suit can move Vernier = How long the vernier gauge can be used Weight = How fast the mobile suit can move ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- | DIRECTION PAD (D-PAD) | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (UP) | Move forward (toward enemy mobile suit) | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (DOWN) | Move backward (away from enemy mobile suit)| ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (LEFT) | Move towards the left | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (RIGHT) | Move towards the right | ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- | BUTTONS | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | ([]) | Uses Primary weapon | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (O) | Raises Shield or Arm | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (X) | Uses Vernier (used in conjunction with | | | D-PAD); depletes Vernier Gauge | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (/\) | Changes targets between mobile suits (only | | | when facing more than one enemy) | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (L1) | Ascend upwards quickly | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (L2) | Desend downwards quickly | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (R1) | No use by itself | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (R2) | Toggle between Short Range and Long Range | | | weapons | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (START) | Pauses the game | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (SELECT) | No use in this game | ---------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------- | MULTIPLE BUTTONS | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (R1) + ([]) | Uses Secondary weapon | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (R1) + (X) | Uses Secondary Weapon | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (R1) + (O) | Uses Secondary weapon | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (R1) + (/\) | Targets a different part of an enemy mobile| | | suit (Head, Arm/Shield, waist, or Leg) | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | (R1) + ([]) + (X) | Special attack (Tertiary weapon); depletes | | | Special's Gauge | ---------------------------------------------------------------- (D01) MS-06S Zaku IIS Char Custom Pilot: Char Aznable First Appearance: Mobile Suit Gundam Shield: Yes Attributes: ---------------------------------------------------- | Armor | Lock-on | Power | Speed | Vernier | Weight | ---------------------------------------------------- | 2 | 4 | 4 | 2 | 5 | 1 | ---------------------------------------------------- Attacks: ---------------------- / Short Range Weapons / ------------------------------------------------------------ | Primary | ------------------------------------------------------------ | ([]) | Heat Hawk | | | -

[E] Story Mode Walkthrough
  (E01) Amuro's Story
    This story follows Amuro Ray's epic battles from his first
    battle against the Red Comet's Zaku II Custom in Mobile Suit 
    Gundam to his final battle against Char's Sazabi in Mobile Suit
    Gundam Char's Counterattack.

    
     Amuro Pilots: RX-78-2 Gundam

     Enemies: 1 x MS-06S Zaku IIS Char Custom (Pilot: Char Aznable)
              ? x MS-06 Zaku II (1 Zaku II at a time, but it respawns
                                 each time it is destroyed)

     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Episode 2

     Objective: Destroy MS-06S Zaku IIS Char Custom

     Difficulty: * out of *****

     Remarks: A very simple battle to get you acquainted with Story
              Mode.  You cannot loose unless you don't use your
              shield.  Just hammer away at Char's Zaku IIS and 
              ignore the grunt Zaku II's as they respawn everytime
              they are destroyed.

    
     Amuro Pilots: RX-78-2 Gundam
    
     Enemies: 1 x MAN-08 Elmeth (Pilot: Lalah Sune)
              1 x MS-14S Gelgoog Char Custom (Pilot: Char Aznable)
     
     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Episode 40

     Objective: Destroy MAN-08 Elmeth and MS-14S Gelgoog Char Custom

     Difficulty: **** out of *****

     Remarks: The first battle that tests your skill.  You first face
              up against Lalah's Elmeth, then once you defeat it (and
              view a cutscene), you will battle against Char's Gelgoog.
             
              Elmeth is the first enemy you fight that has bits.
              Although, Lalah won't use bits too often in this battle,
              you will need to get used to evading them.  When
              fighting against Elmeth, try to keep your distance (but
              don't stay too far) and fire your long range projectiles
              at it; avoid using close combat.

              Hopefully, you only sustained minimal damage against
              Elmeth because you immediately fight against Char's
              Gelgoog with the same Life Gauge.  Your Special's Gauge
              should be charged by now, so unleash your special
              against Char.  Exploit the fact that Char's Gelgoog
              has no shield and finish it off with long range
              attacks.

    
     Amuro Pilots: RX-78-2 Gundam
    
     Enemies: 1 x MSN-02 Zeong (Pilot: Char Aznable)
              ? X MS-09R Rick Dom (1 Rick Dom at a time, but it
                                   respawns each time it is
                                   destroyed)
                   
     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Episode 42

     Objective: Destroy MSN-02 Zeong

     Difficulty: ** out of *****

     Remarks: This battle is actually fairly easy.  Don't let the 
              reputation of Zeong from the tv-series fool you.  Just
              blast it with all your projectiles and it should be
              destroyed in no time.  The beam saber is also quite
              effective against Zeong.  Ignore the Rick Dom's.

    
     Amuro Pilots: RGZ-91 Re-GZ Amuro Custom
    
     Enemies: 1 x MSN-04 Sazabi (Pilot: Char Aznable)
     
     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack

     Objective: Destroy MSN-04 Sazabi

     Difficulty: *** out of *****

     Remarks: Nothing challenging at all about this battle.  Make
              good use of your dummies to fool the computer to land
              a good series of long range attacks.  Also don't forget
              to avoid the funnels from Sazabi as they can be 
              damaging if the computer links a combo after the bits
              hit you.

    
     Amuro Pilots: RX-93 Nu Gundam
    
     Enemies: 1 x MSN-03 Jagd Doga Gyunei Custom (Pilot: Gyunei Guss)
              1 x NZ-333 Alpha Azieru (Pilot: Quess Paraya)
     
     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack

     Objective: Destroy MSN-03 Jagd Doga Gyunei Custom and NZ-333
                Alpha Azieru

     Difficulty: ***** out of *****

     Remarks: This is, without doubt, the hardest battle of Amuro`s
              Story.  Thankfully, you don`t have to fight against
              both the Jagd Doga an Alpha Azieru at once.  You first
              fight Gyunei`s Jagd Doga, and upon defeating it, you
              fight against the Alpha Azieru.

              Gyunei`s Jagd Doga is not too much of a threat to you,
              but make sure to avoid its funnels.  Use a combination
              of long range attacks and your fin funnels to quickly 
              dismiss this mobile suit while taking as little damage
              as you can.

              Up next is the Alpha Azieru.  This mobile armor is
              extremely deadly.  It releases its funnels far too
              often.  To add to this, it has more funnels than the
              average mobile suits.  Make sure to keep your distance
              and avoid close combat at all costs.  If the series of
              funnel attacks connects, your life gauage will become
              close to being depleted.  Make good use of your long
              range projectiles and your fin funnels to dipose of
              this mobile armour.  Don't be surprised if you need
              more than one try to win this battle.

    
     Amuro Pilots: RX-93 Nu Gundam
    
     Enemies: 1 x MSN-04 Sazabi (Pilot: Char Aznable)
     
     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack

     Objective: Destroy MSN-04 Sazabi

     Difficulty: *** out of *****

     Remarks: After the tough battle with Alpha Azieru, this battle
              should be fairly easy.  Finish Sazabi off with the same
              tactic as in Stage 4 to complete Amuro's Story.



  (E02) Char's Story
    This story follows Char Aznable's epic battles from his second
    sortee against the White Devil in Mobile Suit Gundam to his 
    final encounter with Amuro's Nu Gundam in Mobile Suit Gundam
    Char's Counterattack.

    
     Char Pilots: MS-06S Zaku IIS Char Custom

     Enemies: 1 x RX-78-2 Gundam (Pilot: Amuro Ray)

     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Episode 5

     Objective: Destroy RX-78-2 Gundam

     Difficulty: ** out of *****

     Remarks: Despite the fact that you get assistance from several
              computer controlled Zaku II, this match seems almost
              unfair for a first battle since the Zaku IIS is a very
              crappy mobile suit.  Definitely keep your distance away
              from the Gundam and fire your long range attacks at it.
              The computer enjoys using close range combos against you
              that are quite damaging, so avoid close-range combat.

    
     Char Pilots: MS-14S Gelgoog Char Custom

     Enemies: ? x RGM-79 GM
              ? x RB-79 Ball

     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Episode 38

     Objective: Survive for 2 minutes

     Difficulty: * out of *****

     Remarks: A super easy battle.  Just use any short or long range
              attack to destroy the enemy mobile suits.

    
     Char Pilots: MSN-02 Zeong

     Enemies: 1 x RX-78-2 Gundam (Pilot: Amuro Ray)
              ? x RGM-79 GM (1 GM at a time, but it respawns each
                             time it is destroyed)

     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Episode 42

     Objective: Destroy RX-78-2 Gundam

     Difficulty: **** out of *****

     Remarks: A fairly hard battle as the Zeong has very low ammo for
              each attack and Zeong has no shield.  This is most 
              likely the hardest battle of Char's Story, but is
              nowhere near as hard as the battle against Alpha Azieru
              in Amuro's Story.  Avoid targetting the GM's with your
              attacks and, instead, focus only on Amuro's Gundam.
              Make good use of your Wire-Guided Arm attacks to deal
              damage to the Gundam.  If you find this battle hard,
              then wait for your Special's Gauage to fill up and use
              your long range special against Amuro.

    
     Char Pilots: MSN-04 Sazabi

     Enemies: 1 x RGZ-91 Re-GZ Amuro Custom (Pilot: Amuro Ray)

     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack

     Objective: Destroy RGZ-91 Re-GZ Amuro Custom

     Difficulty: *** out of *****

     Remarks: This is the first battle where you pilot Sazabi.  Make
              good use of dummies to land considerable damage against
              the Re-GZ using long range projectiles and funnels.
              This is a fairly standard one on one battle and there
              shouldn't be any problems with finishing off this
              battle.

    
     Char Pilots: MSN-04 Sazabi

     Enemies: ? x Nuclear Missiles
              ? x RGM-89 Jegan

     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack

     Objective: Survive and destroy a 2 minute barrage of Nuclear
                Missiles, then survive for another 2 minutes
                against RGM-89 Jegan's

     Difficulty: **** out of *****

     Remarks: Believe it or not, this is actually a hard battle; the
              first part of it anyways.  You first have to destroy
              a series of Nuclear Missiles that are shot at you for
              two minutes, then you have to survive a two minute
              assault by grunt RGM-89 Jegan's.

              You have to be very good at moving the crosshair on the
              screen and destroying the incoming Nuclear Missiles.
              This stage is only hard because if you miss a Nuclear
              Missile, it does considerable damage to Sazabi.

              After the barrage of missiles, you can relax as the
              RGM-89 Jegan's are super easy to defeat.  Use any
              short or long range attack to finish them off.

    
     Char Pilots: MSN-04 Sazabi

     Enemies: 1 x RX-93 Nu Gundam (Pilot: Amuro Ray)

     Battle From: Mobile Suit Gundam Char's Counterattack

     Objective: Destroy RX-93 Nu Gundam

     Difficulty: *** out of *****

     Remarks: This is a straight-forward battle.  Avoid Nu Gundam`s
              fin funnels while making good use of your funnels to
              complete Char`s Story.
