GA Graphic gives Zeon some love.


Self professed EFSF fan though I may be, it's about damn time Zeon got some love in the Master Archive Series.  (Other than the Sinaju, I mean.)  These kinds of books are perfect considering how many variations your typical Zeon MS model has.  This should help save them from having to make things up to include in the book.  (Looking at you, FA Zephyranthes and VF-22 variants).


And of course, Macross is also coming along at the same time:

Ace Pilots of the One Year War

(TL Note: EB39 is written from a in-universe perspective, from about UC0120 or so.)

Introduction: Ace pilot requirements

What is an ace?

The word 'ace', from old French, means 'one who excels', which was later applied during the early days of aerial combat to indicate 'one who has shot down 5 planes'.  This requirement of 5 planes or occasionally the pilot to score the first kill in an engagement were not particularly strictly defined at the time.

However, after some time, the usage of this word to denote a pilot who has shot down five planes would become common parlance.

RGZ-91



The ReGz is an experimental Mobile Suit developed in UC0091 by Anaheim Electronics.  This machine's nickname is the shorted version of the full name; 'Refine Gundam Zeta', and is an experimental production version of the most advanced AEUG Mobile suit deployed in the Grypps conflict: the MSZ-006 Z Gundam.
