Gundam Versus Impressions Part Final(Unicorn, F91, Turn A Gundam, Reconguista in G, Stardust Memory, The 8th MS Team, Crossbone, Beltorchika's Children)

 Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn

Kshatriya
 The Kshatriya is pretty dope for a 300 cost unit. It has a ton of long-range proyectiles, including a weak, but useful, funnel attack and a pretty decent gerobi. Her melee comes out fast and covers wide areas of effect, hopefully your ally isn't close by.
 Yes, it's the same unit it used to be, and in this game its great.

NEW Jesta
 The JESTA has a ton of different missiles that make it a great mid-range unit, sadly, it has pathetic melee abilities, they are too slow to be any good. It can quickly shoot its beams in bursts of twos, and most of his missiles have multi-hitting properties... it seems they wanted a slow but powerful 300 cost unit, and I don't think it worked too well... but it's surprisingly fun to use and I thought it looked kinda cool.

Delta Plus
 This guy SUCKS. It's hard to link together melee attacks, and has mediocre proyectiles. Has a new MA burst attack that misses most of its shots. Such a shame!

Banshee
 Its 'closed' form has been changed a lot, now its three projectile tools are COMPLETELY different from his opened form's. That said, the Open form plays exactly like it did in Full Boost. It's a great unit, built to wreck anything that stands on its path.

Sinaju
 It seems they heard my complains, because the Sinaju was streamlined, they removed his alternate melee/mini-gun stance and instead fused both movesets into a single one... which is basically the base form plus the meteor bounce. Honestly, this suit might be better now, but losing the stance change means he is not as fun to use.

Unicorn Gundam
 Pretty much exactly the same he was in Full Boost, but now keeps the Beam Rifle in its open form. It's still really good, but I think its damage output is a bit lower... which is good, since it used to be almost too good.

Mobile Suit Gundam F91

NEW Vigna Ghina
 This guy is back since Final Plus, and its better than ever! Lost the Drill assist from the Berga Giros, but who needs it when you've got this much beam spam! Honestly, it has so many great projectile attacks AND decent melee to boot that it feels like a 300 cost unit instead of a 200. I love it.

Berga Giros
 Has very weak projectiles and lost one of its modes... but using its drill to dunk on other suits is still relatively fun. Not my cup o' tea.

F91 Gundam
 I think it didn't get any large change. It's as vanilla as it gets, with a very boring but practical moveset.

Turn A Gundam

Kapool
 Lameeeeeee, a joke unit if I've ever seen one. The Kapool used to be a duo with Corin's Kapool, but not anymore. Basic melee is terrible, but funny dunking attacks, and has a few more-than-decent special melee attacks. Its machingun sucks. I hated it.

NEW Silver SUMO
 It used to be DLC in Full Boost, which means its pretty much new to me. I was ready to hate this guy, because its design is ugly and its just a Gold SUMO recolor, but it wound up being a very fun unit to use. It has a ton of great, fast-recharging projectiles. I liked it.

Corin's Kapool
 Exactly like he was in Full Boost, but no longer paired with Sochie's Kapool. Has good, funny melee, but slow-moving projectiles with low ammo count. I didn't like it, both Kapools were better as a single unit...

Gold SUMO
 Pretty similar to the Silver SUMO, but has less offensive options. Shares two tools('shining finger' shield/attack and the paralyzing beam-whip) but is otherwise quite different. Has a new dash-approach which is actually quite useful! IT was pretty decent, but I think I liked the Silver SUMO a bit more.

Turn X
 The move in which he detaches every limb is now filled charged from the start of the battle, it's also got a new gerobi beam. Pretty good unit all around, and is now a bit better!

Turn A
 Has a new missile weapon. This guy's got a ton of different tools, including a one-time nuke, missiles, beams and even a gerobi. It's on the complicated side, but its still a really great unit.

Mobile Suit Gundam - Reconguista in G

Mask's Mack Knife
 It's... very weird. Has weird projectiles and can summon an assist unit that can be commanded at will to shoot at the enemy, for a short while. Meh. I'm happy this unit is in the game, though, since every game needs a weird 'freak' character that's very unconventional.

NEW G-Arcane
 What an interesting mobile suit! It's a sniper-like thing that can also enter a hover-mode to pepper enemies with bullets. Not my kind of character, too slow and better suited at sniping from the back, but I LOVE the fact that its in the game, since its playstyle is so unique. Its burst attack requires fixing, since it pushes everyone away before doing any sort of considerable damage.

G-Self
 Another unit that returns from VS Force. This guy can alternate between its basic form, a long-range form as well as its fully fledged MA mode. I don't like this guy too much, found it a bit boring, but I enjoy the fact that it has one of the best and strongest MA modes in the game.


Mobile Suit Gundam - Stardust Memory

NEW GM Cannon II
 Plenty of strong beams, it can charge its giant gerobi, up to two levels, by holding square... but you can unleash said gerobi at any time, since it doesn't go off when you let go off square. It has pathetic melee.
 I found it pretty fun to use, but not a unit I'll be using too much.

NEW GM Custom
 Very basic all-around 200 cost unit. Absolutely nothing stands out about it... although it has a melee counter, I think no other unit has that, so there's that.


Gundam "Zephyranthes" Full Burnern
 Exactly the same as it was. A bit too generic for my tastes.

GP 02 Physalis
 Machingun ammo was halved, but it has a  new charge beam-bazooka shot and missiles. It's pretty good, having a reliable nuke helps a lot!!

GP03 Dendrobium Stamen
 Received a new beam rifle charge shot. Really good for long-range battles, although its close-range game leaves a lot to be desired.


Mobile Suit Gundam the 8th Team

NEW Gundam Ground Type
 Was DLC in Full Boost. It has two forms, one with a long range rifle and a bazooka, for long-range, and another one with a machinegun and missiles for mid-range. It's OK, but nothing to write home about.

Gundam EZ8
 It's very similar to the Ground Gundam, but its main weapon is a beam rifle instead of the machinegun, although it does come with a machinegun subweapon.  Basically it's a stronger version of the Ground Gundam... it surprised me how fun it was to use.

Gouf Custom
 It's identical to its Full Boost counterpart, but received ammo buff on both of its main proyectile miniguns. It's very fun to use.


Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam

Crossbone Gundam X2 KAi
 Honestly? He is pretty much exactly the same as he was in Full Boost, it's still a blast to use, like the other Crossbone Gundams.

Crossbone Gundam X-3
 Still a phenomenal close-range unit, it lost the move in which he threw the poor MA. Probably my favorite Crossbone Gundam, even if it's missing the badass cowl.

Crossbone Gundam X-1
 Since there are no more summons, he got a new move to replace its lost MA assist: now he can shoot what looks to be energy daggers. Not a very good move though.
 He is fun to use though, fun melee!


Mobile Suit Gundam: Beltorchika's Children

Hi-Nu Gundam
 Shield comes fully charged from the start, more ammo on funnels and a new melee charge tool. I love this unit, I've always done so, but it's a bit better this time around.
