Instead of a Dober Rifle,the Tallgeese III carries a Mega Cannon, also it was the first of the Tallgeese models to carry vulcans and the second Mobile Suit in history to carry a Heat Rod. Due to these new installments the Tallgeese III was not able to participate in the final battle between the Earth Sphere Unified Nation, lead by Trieze, and the White Fang, lead by Milliardo Peacecraft. After the war the Preventers finished the suit and stored it away for emergency use only. One year after the "Eve Wars", Mariemaia Khushrenada declared war on the Earth. Preventer Wind took the Tallgeese III and on a test run against MO-III and took out three enemy transports. However, due to the threat of a colony drop he was forced to stop. After the Gundam Pilots stopped Colony X-18999 from dropping to Earth the Tallgeese III destroyed the main enemy base of MO-III, however the bulk of the enemy force had escaped. The Tallgeese III along with Noin's Taurus Custom engaged the Mariemaia Forces on Earth and destroyed a considerable number of suits, but without killing a single pilot. The Gundams later joined with the duo and they fought together until each Mobile Suit could no longer fight. This is the last time we see the Tallgeese III, it is unknown what happened to it after the final battle. ##################################################### Chapter 2: The Pilot ################################ ##################################################### Zechs Merquise Affiliation: Oz Mobile Suits: Early Production Leo and Tallgeese I Brief History: At the start of the show he fights for Oz and is one of there Ace pilots. Following Heero Yuy's Wing Gundam he fights it with his Leo and ejects sending the Gundam to the bottom of the sea. Later he acquires the Tallgeese and has it repaired. When he first pilots the suit he suffers a heart attack because he can not handle the intensity of the Tallgeese. Later he fights the Wing Gundam in Siberia but can not finish the fight because Heero blows himself up. He rebuilds the Wing Gundam, finds Heero and they fight to settle the score. Later during a battle with the Alliance forces his mask breaks and that is the end of the "Lightning Count".Zechs reappears once in space and fights along side the Alliance forces and saves Lady Une. Milliardo Peacecraft Affiliation: White Fang Leader Mobile Suits: Epyon Brief History: Milliardo is the real name of Zechs Merquise. He joins the White Fang as there leader and then declares war on the Earth. He attacks the Earth with his spacebattleship Libra. Treize and the World Nation Forces attack Libra as well as the Gundam Pilots and the Maganac Corp. He finds Heero's Wing Zero and they begin there final battle in which Milliardo is defeated. The last time we see him is when the one armed Epyon takes out the power core of Libra's subsection... Preventer Wind Affiliation: Preventer Agent Mobile Suit: Tallgeese III Brief History: After Mariemaia Khushrenada declares war on the Earth Sphere Unified Nation, Zechs reappears and offers his services as a agent. He is accepted and heads to space with the mobile suit Tallgeese III. The Tallgeese III engages the enemy at MO-III and destroys three transports in quick succession. After some time,Wind destroys MO-III and joins with his fellow agent and love interest Noin. They head to earth to fight the Mariemaia soldiers trying to make it to where Relena is being held.Wind and Noin hold there own but get overwhelmed by enemy mobile suits. However the Gundams appear and they five of them fight together. Eventually,the Preventers and Gundams run out of power and are forced to retreat. Wing Zero Custom then shows up and takes out the shelter shield however Wing Zero is destroyed. The last time we see Wind is when he and Noin go to Mars for a terraforming project. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Chapter III: The Moves ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ((( Basic Attack Moves ))) Strong Punch - Triangle Tallgeese brings it's arms down in a hammer blow.

Number of times useable: 3 ******************************** Chapter IV: Tactics and Combo's ******************************** This Section contains Strategies and Combo's. All Strategies are based on a level 9 enemy suit and a level 4 Tallgeese. (((((Future Colony Era Suits))))) +++++++++++++++ Burning Gundam (God Gundam) +++++++++++++++ Most Deadly Attack: Burning Finger Most Often Used Attack: Strategy: Domon Kashuu's Burning Gundam is no pushover. Burning Gundam is a fast suit hits for decent damage. Burning Gundam has no long range attacks except Sekiha Tenkyoken and Vulcans. Stay at a distance because Burning Gundam executes it's attacks faster than the Tallgeese. Domon loves using a basic hit combo, somtimes followed by Burning Finger or Burning Finger Sword. If he is getting two close to you use the O Button attack, or down O to hit him and then fly to the other side of screen. Also the Flying Tackle Move has a good chance of knocking Domon back or flying over him. Another of Domon's favorite attacks is a down slide, followed by a powered down slide and he ends it with Tenkyoken. One last thing, Burning Finger Sword has very short range, if he tries to use it back off and nail him.

Why not the GP-02A or Nu Gundam? Answer: I have always liked the Tallgeese line of MS due to there cool looks and because the way Treize handled the upgraded Tallgeese II. Question: Which do you perfer UC or AC Gundam? Answer: Both, my current favorite is the Movie version of MSG followed by Wing. Question: Why do you prefer the Tallgeese in the game? Answer: I like it's handeling as a short range fighter not to mention for the Mobile Armors i can withdraw and hammer them to death with long range attacks.Also it's Beam Saber is a the longest and the quickest to use giving it a nice little boost. However I have discovered that I am better with the Sandrock than I am with Tallgeese III. Question: Is this your first FAQ? Answer: In actuallilty no.I made one for Sailor Moon Another Story and it was turned down.I had one for Mobile Suit Gundam Zeonic Front but i felt it was lacking and had CjayC remove it. Question: How do I get in touch with you? Answer: E-mail me at TallgeeseVI@Hotmail.com, if you have questions, or would like to submit combo's or strategies then please feel free to do so. Question: I have a combo that I would like to submit what should I do? Answer: Simply E-mail me the combo, your user name, and i will put it in the FAQ with full credit given. Question: Who do you think is better the Red Comet,Char Aznable or the Lightning Count,Zechs Merquise? Answer: Zechs Merquise. I really do not like either of them, but Zechs has the Epyon and Tallgeese I and III. While Char has a Pink Zaku II and chases underage girls. I think the answer is clear. ======================================================== Chapter VII: Credits =================================== ======================================================== This is the end of the FAQ, below is copyright materials and thanks.
