Story elements will be included in the game with characters animations during the game's missions. You may choose the hero character to play and view the story from their perspecitive. And players will also be able to alter story element based on their actions.

Chessboard Bound Maps:
Enhancing upon the system created for the Battle series, this game will include multiple linked maps mission structure. Missions' elements will change in real-time, and enemies will be able to move between the linked map depending on the story elements / situation. Linked maps all play out in real-time, so tactical situation awareness is key when you move back and forth between maps.
Players will need to keep an eye on their HP at all times, especially the variety of auxiliary and SP gauges for special attacks!

Another new feature is the 3 MS platoon system. Player will be able to organize their own platoon with their favorite characters & mobile suits. During the combat phase, players can give simple commands to ally units. Info on this is a bit vague at this point, but I shall provide further updates as they becomes avaliable.

The game also support multiplayer cooperative game matches. With multiple linked maps scenarios, you can imagine the tactical gameplay involved.

Robot Damashii: Gundam F91

Robot Damashii: Gundam F91
Released Date: Apr. 2010
Price: 3,000 Yen

For those who like to collect figures rather then building them, then this Gundam F91 is for you. As usual, I find Robot Damashii line of toys to lack details, and with the usual 3,000 Yen price tag, I rather go with their HG 1/144 counterpart.

BoxArt + Images for the MG 1/100 GN-X
Released Date: Jan. 2010
Price: 3,600 Yen

Gosh... it really will take some mental discipline to keep myself from thinking about this one after all the kits I acquired recently... I think is going to be a losing battle. I like the GN-X a lot, and this kit is very nice..with all the details.
