Technical and Historical Notes
|
"It's Awesome." Garrod Ran
Fifteen years after Jamil Neate used his GX-9900 Gundam X in a failed
attempt to stop the mass colony drop of the Seventh Space War, elements of
the New Earth Federation unvield a new Gundam based on the GX-9900 that
Neate had abandoned in space following the end of the war. Found floating
in orbit, the Gundam was taken to a research lab, where it's computer
systems were downloaded into a new Gundam frame. The new unit, called the
GX-9901-DX Gundam Double X, mounted two Satellite Cannons, improved Beam
Swords, and more hand armorments.
Following the trail of the Satellite Systems Laser Downlink, the Crew of
the Freeden, a Vulture controlled Land Battleship, attempted to capture the
unit. The New Federation Research Facilities Commander bluffed the Freeden,
and forced the crew to surrender. Neate and Tiffa Adil were separated, and
scheduled to be brought before scientists researching Newtypes, but Garrod
Ran, and the rest of the Freeden's crew escaped, and Garrod and a Federation
Soldier attempted to liberate the captured Gundams. At first, failure and
death seemed inevitable when it was discovered the G-Controller for the
GX-9901 DX had been removed, but Garrod and his new ally were able to hold
out until Jamil Neate and Tiffa Adil arrived with the captured G-Con for
Garrod's GX-9900-DV. Although their new ally was killed before Garrod could
make good their escape, his death catalized Garrod into a dazzling display
of piloting skill, as he used hand to hand and beam saber attacks to
decimate the pursuing mobile suits.
One of the greatest improvements included in the Gundam Double X, was the
elimination of the need for a Newtype pilot. Using the recorded brainwaves
taken from Jamil Neate 15 years ago, the Double X is able to activate the
Dual Satellite Cannons.

[1]The Head and Hands are small targets , and are difficult to hit.
Therefore, even with a called shot, they are -3 to hit.
[2]Destroying the Sensor Antenna will disrupt the Double X's ability to
receive radio signals and has a 50% chance of destroying the radar and laser
tracking systems. This will eliminate the bonuses for Strike and Dodge.
[3]Depleting the MDC of the Main Body will disable the Double X.
[4]Depleting the MDC of the Satellite Cannon Backpack, or destroying 3 or
more Energy Collector Wings will disable the Satellite cannon, and render the
GX-9901 incapable of flight.
