Technical and Historical Notes
|
"I made the
best Gundam I possibly could... a mastepriece called the Gundam Deathscythe.
The others are a fluke." - Professor G
When the five scientists who designed the XXXG-00W0 Wing Gundam Zero in AC
180 went their separate ways, each of them took copies of the plans for their
original Gundam design. Professor G, who went into hiding in the L2 colonies,
then went on to design and build his own Gundam based on their original plans.
With the assistance of an underground scavengers' guild known as the Sweeper
Group, Professor G built a Gundam that specialized in stealthiness and
close-quarters combat. His creation was called the XXXG-01D Gundam Deathscythe,
and it proved to be a true mechanical terror when it was launched to Earth
to fight OZ during Operation Meteor in AC 195.
"Gundam 02," as the Deathscythe was code-named by OZ forces, was equipped
with standard vulcan guns and machinecannons for ranged weapons. However,
its primary armament was its large, deadly beam scythe, capable of slicing
through enemy mobile suits like a knife through hot butter. The Deathscythe
also carried a "buster shield," which mounted two solid blades and a beam
blade and could be launched spinning into a target for a rather messy,
destructive effect. But in order to use these weapons effectively, the
Deathscythe was also equipped with a "hyper jammer" ECM system, making the
Gundam invisible to various types of electronic sensors, thus allowing the
mobile suit to slip in and attack when the enemy isn't looking. The Deathscythe's
pilot, Duo Maxwell, became well known as the "God of Death" for his mastery
of these stealthy strikes.

[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 Head Sensor Unit will disrupt the Gundam Deathscythe'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 Gundam Deathscythe. At 50% the Hyper Jamming System will fail, and the Deathscythe will become visible.
[4]Stats for the Beam Scissors Shield are listed in the Weapon Systems section.
[5]If the Backpack Thurster Unit is destroyed, the Deathscythe cannot fly.

Thrust: 30,000 kilograms
Flying:
In Atmosphere: 300mph with a 10,000 foot ceiling
Space: 2,405 mph but it doesn't maneuver well (-2
to all defensive rolls) and only has 10 minutes of fuel.

Weapon Systems

Beam Scythe:
is a high energy weapon designed for maximum destruction, used close in.
Beam Scissors
Shield: A shield and weapon combination that can be used to parry attacks,
and then launched to slice through opponents. When fired, the forward
scissors spread open, and a beam similar to the beamscythe activates, allowing
the unit to slice and bore throught targets.

Other Systems:

1. Hyper Jamming System: this system functions like a cloaking device, and renders the Gundam Deathscythe virtually invisible to electronic detection. (gives the Deathscythe a +2 bonus to initiative, and works like ECM)
