Technical and Historical Notes
|
"Rather than a suit for battle, you could say it's a suit for dueling.
It takes a brave pilot to bring out its true potential... brave enough to
risk death for victory." - Zechs Merquise
It was in the year AC 175 when OZ, an affiliate of the Romefeller Foundation,
was charged with designing and building the first combat-capable mobile suit
of that Era. The results exceeded all expectations, as the OZ-00MS Tallgeese
proved so powerful that no ordinary pilot could handle it. Although equipped
with a pair of beam sabers and a shell-firing "dobergun," the Tallgeese's
biggest advantage was its size and speed. Being a large and heavy mobile
suit, it required an enormous amount of thrust for jumping and maneuvering.
However, its designers equipped it with a tremendous vernier rocket system
that gave it enough thrust to maintain flight on its own - over three times
the acceleration of OZ's later air combat model mobile suit, the OZ-07AMS
Aires. However, the sheer stress and G-forces placed upon the pilot made
the Tallgeese too much of a "wild horse" for anyone to handle, and the mobile
suit was disassembled and put into storage, ostensibly to serve as a "museum
piece."
Although the five scientists who designed the Tallgeese left OZ to follow
other pursuits after colony leader Heero Yuy's assassination, OZ began full-scale
mobile suit production, using the Tallgeese as the basis for its smaller,
less-powerful OZ-06MS Leo units. It wasn't until twenty years later that
the Tallgeese would resurface when OZ pilot Zechs Merquise, desparate to
find a weapon capable of helping him take on those same scientists' powerful
Gundam mobile suits, would bring the Tallgeese out of mothballs and make
it operational again. Despite the physical punishment, Zechs would become
the only pilot to master the prototype mobile suit, making it his personal
unit through most of the fighting and political strife that occured in AC
195.
(EDITOR'S NOTE: Despite the common knowledge that Zechs Merquise was the
pilot of the one-and-only Tallgeese, it appears that this same Tallgeese
- or possibly a second Tallgeese unit - is known to have been in possession
of one of the designers of the Wing Gundam Zero, Master O, and the Long clan
of the L5 colonies. We do know for certain that this Tallgeese was piloted
by Mei Lan Long in an encounter with OZ and Earth Alliance forces in AC 194,
and was heavily damaged in the battle.)

[1]The Head, Hands, and Sensor Unit are small targets , and are difficult to hit. Therefore, even with a called shot, they are -3 to hit.
[2]Destroying the Sensor Unit on the Head will disrupt the Tallgeese'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 Tallgeese.
[4]Destroying the Backpack Thruster Unit will leave the Tallgeese unable to fly. In space, it will still be able to maneuver slightly, but will be -2 on all defensive rolls.
