GG's Old Dream of Being a Gundam Strategy Game Designer....
Reading the post below about the Mobile Suit Gundam Jabro board game actually brought back memories of a project I was working on awhile back, when I was designing a mod for a Gundam strategy game. I appropriately named the project 'Gundam Tactics', a modified hexagonal strategy game for the PC. Though never finished due to my busy work schedule, but I was pretty close. Here are some screenshots:

Mobile Suit Gundam Jabro - Hexagonal Gundam Strategy Board Game 30th Anniversary Re-Release
MSG Jabro is a 30th anniversary re-release the masterpiece Gundam hexagonal strategy board game that would sold in Japan all the way back in the year 1981. Definitely a colleciton item for the old-school gamers and a great strategy game for the Gundam armchair general inside of us. The game includes game board maps that ranges from desert to urban settings, game rule book, score cards, and game pieces.
First, let's look at what you get in the box.
Its name is "Jabro."

Rather that the newest technology, this original Gundam simulation is a classic analog board game.
Released thirty years ago by Tsukuda Hobby during the first Gundam boom, it was enjoyed at home and at clubs by many Gundam fans.
And now, Jabro will be reprinted by Megahouse!
With box art just like the original, with pieces just like the original!

Unit sheets
The units are the unique point of the game, and vital for its play. They're tiny and there are many different types, so be sure not to lose any!
There are three unit sheets: One for Federation mobile suits, weapons, tanks, and flak; one for Zeon MSes and weapons, and one for pilots and status. Each is just waiting to be neatly punched out and placed in the unit tray.
MS units must be combined with pilot units and weapon units before entering combat. After taking damage in combat, they are first marked with a status unit, then destroyed and removed from the board.
Unit trayA tray to hold the detached units. The tray in this release is just like the original! It holds a vintage-style black die and white die.
The player's fate rests on these dice!
Data sheet
Used to smoothly resolve combat. Contains hit and firepower charts, and damage, close combat, and melee tables to cover all kinds of combat.
The password is "Miracle snake eyes! Critfail on a 6!
RulebookA reprint of the Second Edition rules. Read this, punch out the units, and you're good to go!
