Char’s Campaign (CCA) – Fifth Luna/Axis (Part 2)

Reporting from the Operations Department that with Sweetwater under our control, we are now able to carry out large-scale operations.

I would like to proceed with preparations for the global cooling operation immediately.

Understood. We’ll start drafting a strategy immediately. Please wait for the report.


Reporting from the Intelligence Department. It appears that Londo Bell has strengthened his forces, and Amuro Ray and Bright Noa have joined them. Please be careful.

Reporting that we have received a request from Anaheim’s Von Braun Factory to provide technology related to the Psycho-Frame.

Von Braun was developing mobile suits for the Londo Bell Corps, right?

Yes. In return they will provide us with the technology used to develop weapons for the Federation Forces. Should we agree to their request?

[Player choice: YES]

Understood, I’ll send some of the samples through to the Granada factory.

My pride won’t allow me to defeat you on unequal terms, Amuro.


Commander, incoming communication from a high-ranking official of the Earth Federation Forces. I’ll patch him through.

We witnessed the broadcast earlier, however the Federation Forces will not approve the establishment of Neo Zeon.

Is that so? Then so be it.
You will soon bear witness to our true intentions.

What does that mean?

Please give my best regards to the people of Lhasa. We are just doing what we can for the sake of our independence.

I see… We will arrange a venue for peace talks. I presume that’s alright with you?

Fine by me.

Commander, if you directly participate in the peace talks, it would be possible to gain the upper hand in the negotiations. Will you attend?

[Player choice: NO]

Now then, on behalf of the Commander, I and the other generals will attend the meeting.


Reporting from the Operations Department. The draft of the global cooling operation has been completed. We are proposing the “Fifth Luna Drop Operation.”

It’s finally time. Implement the global cooling operation.

From this moment forward, our military will carry out the Fifth Luna Drop Operation. This is an important operation that will decide the success or failure of global cooling. I look forward to your efforts.

Fifth Luna

A former resource mining asteroid used in the construction of space colonies.

Char launched a terrifying plan to drop the abandoned asteroid Fifth Luna on Earth and purge the people on the surface.

The target is the Earth Federation Headquarters at Lhasa.

The hammer of judgment was about to fall upon the Federation government.

We’re receiving a report from the Intelligence Department. Fifth Luna’s path of descent is within firing range of the Side 2 laser installation and is likely to be attacked. Please take the necessary precautions.

There’s a proposal from the Intelligence Department. They suggest that we immediately send an operative to Side 2 and work with local sympathizers to try to destroy the laser installation. Please give permission to dispatch the operative.

[Player choice: NO]

It’s true that sabotage operations on the colony may offend the other Spacenoids. We will withdraw the proposal.


Reporting! The Londo Bell Corps is moving at high speed towards Fifth Luna.

Commander, it will take some time to ignite Fifth’s nuclear pulse engine. Please protect the nuclear pulse engine from destruction until ignition is complete.

Gyunei: What is this pressure?!

Amuro: People change, right? So… why? Why do we repeat the same mistakes?!

Reporting that we have succeeded in igniting the nuclear pulse engine of Fifth Luna. Both the angle and speed of approach to Earth are good. We’re victorious.

Reporting that there is a stalemate in the airspace surrounding Gyunei Guss. Should we offer him assistance?

Fifth Luna’s entry is complete, give the withdrawal signal.

I sent it out, but we can’t scatter the Minovsky particles and disrupt the radio waves because the mobile suits are retreating.

Does that mean Gyunei is in danger? Okay, I’ll go to his aid and retrieve him.

Amuro: Why would you drop something like this on Earth? The Earth will become so cold that it will experience a nuclear winter, and it’ll become uninhabitable.

Char: The people living on Earth only care about themselves, so that’s why I declared I will wipe them out!

Amuro: You have no right to punish them that way.

Char: It is I, Char Aznable, who will purge them, Amuro!

Amuro: You’re full of yourself!

Char: I’m saying the Earth isn’t going to last.

Char: The Earth cannot contain all human ego!

Amuro: Human wisdom can overcome such things!

Char: In that case, give wisdom to all those ignorant fools right now!

Amuro: I will, after I’m finished with you!

Am I alright, you say? You’re suddenly being considerate, Char!

Heh, that mobile suit of yours is no match for mine! And I’ve only been deployed for a short time!

Char: Gyunei, stand back!

Gyunei: Commander! You don’t need to get involved…

…

The Psycho-Frame is also being used in Gyunei’s unit. If I could somehow give it to Amuro, we would be able to fight on equal terms.

Should I give the Psycho-Frame to Amuro?

[Player choice: YES]

Char: Your unit cannot retreat. Leave it behind!

Gyunei: Huh? But I’m okay!

Char: No you’re not. I can tell from the outside. Don’t rely on the computer display.

Gyunei: I don’t rely on computers!

Char: Don’t question me!

Nanai, I succeeded in retrieving Gyunei, but his unit was severely damaged and we had no choice but to abandon it. Is there a problem?

…no.

Alright. We’re heading back, so come retrieve us.

Heh…There’s no point in defeating Amuro when he can only use something like that.


Commander, Fifth has entered Earth’s gravitational field. The operation is a success.

I see. What’s the status of Londo Bell?

They’ve begun their retreat. It seems they’ve given up on the pursuit.

Alright. Give orders to the patrolling troops to withdraw as well. We will now move on to the next operation.

Yes sir.

Londo Bell’s desperate resistance was in vain, and Fifth Luna fell to the surface.

Lhasa has been wiped out.

However, the Neo Zeon army was already about to commence a new operation.

Char’s plan had only just begun…

Reporting that the shuttle departing for the meeting with the Federation government is ready. A diversionary operation to distract Londo Bell’s attention from it will begin soon.

Commander, please give a speech before the operation to boost the morale of the soldiers.

Understood.

The operation to drop Fifth Luna was the Neo Zeon army’s first fleet battle. I am moved by the efforts you have shown.

Today, to conclude these operations, we will perform a diversion against the pursuing Londo Bell fleet. It’s a simple mission, but I want you all to complete it safely and return to Sweetwater. That is all.

Well done.

…I feel like a complete clown.

No, as the leader of Neo Zeon, you have to carry out duties for the sake of your image.


Horst, I’m expecting good news.

Please leave it to me.

Starting now, the Londo Bell diversionary operation will begin. The mobile suit squad will follow me and head in the front of the ship, drawing the enemy’s attention to us for a while.


Commander, the shuttle carrying those attending the negotiations has arrived in Londenion. The diversionary operation was a success. 

We will now return to Sweetwater. Commander, please return immediately as well.

Understood. Let’s hope that Horst and company will handle the rest.

Side 1 colony “Londenion”…

An important meeting was about to take place that would determine the success or failure of the global cooling operation.

In exchange for Neo Zeon receiving Axis from the Federation, they promise to disarm their own fleet at Luna II.

However, this was just a way to bring their troops closer…

Commander, the Londenion negotiations ended in success. The Federation officials believed we would disarm our troops and allowed the transfer of Axis.


Commander, the preparations for your speech are complete.

Alright, let’s begin.

My father, Zeon Deikun, had made a request to Earth for autonomy for all space emigrants, known as “Spacenoids.” But he was assassinated by the Zabi Family!

The Zabis called themselves the Principality of Zeon and launched a war of independence against Earth!

You know how it ended, with the Zabis losing the war. Fine and well.

However, as a result the Earth government had grown arrogant. The Federation Forces had become corrupt from within, giving rise to the Titans, and Haman, who claimed succession to the Zabis!

This history has made us refugees!

I have come to believe that we must do everything to prevent war from happening again! This is the true purpose behind our operation to drop Axis on Earth!

As such, we will discipline those who continue to live on Earth and eliminate the source of all wars within the Earth’s sphere!

Everyone!

So that we may forge our own path and establish a government for the refugees, I ask you to lend me your great strength for just a little longer!

When we’ve succeeded, I will then be able to join my father, Zeon!

That was a wonderful speech. The morale of the soldiers has greatly improved.

With the success of the Londenion negotiations, the Federation seems to seriously believe that we will disarm at Luna II. Now that they have their guard down, it is possible to send troops into Luna II without launching an attack operation.


Reporting that we have successfully annihilated Luna II’s garrison. Starting now, my subordinates and I will begin the nuclear transport mission. Please wait for us to arrive there.

Reporting that the Federation’s forces at Axis have begun moving towards Luna II after hearing of the attack there. Now that their garrison is out, it is possible to send troops into Axis without launching an attack operation.

This is a report from the Intelligence Department. The main force of the Londo Bell Corps, which detected our military’s movements, has departed from Londenion. Please be careful.


Reporting that we have succeeded in taking control of Axis and Luna II. With the mass of Axis and the nuclear weapons transported from Luna II, it is possible to bring about a nuclear winter on Earth. We propose the “Axis Drop Operation.”

Has the time finally come? Carry out the Axis drop operation.

Starting now, our army will begin the Axis drop operation. We will strike the Earth with Axis and wipe out all those who continue to remain on the surface!

I am on the verge of achieving my long-cherished desire, but I ask for your strength for just a little while longer.

Axis…

The former space fortress that used to be the castle of Haman, who wrecked havoc on the Earth Sphere, is now a gigantic mass of rock floating in space under the control of the Federation.

Char put everything he had into completing the eradication of humanity on Earth by bombarding it with this land of fate.

The Londo Bell Corps rushes to Axis to stop Char’s ambitions.

The Neo Zeon army engages them. The time for the decisive battle is near.

Axis’ nuclear pulse engine was about to be lit.

It’s an emergency! The Londo Bell Corps has appeared at Axis. They are deploying a large force to stop our Axis drop operation. Please be careful not to let them destroy Axis’ nuclear pulse engines.

They’re surprisingly late. Their mobile suit unit will attack from the front of Axis. Avoid friendly fire.


Reporting that their missiles were successfully shot down.

There was a nuclear weapon among the missiles? Not bad, Londo Bell.

Reporting! Axis’ nuclear pulse engines have been successfully ignited.

Go, Axis. Take your dreadful memories with you!


Reporting! The Londo Bell Corps has begun to retreat.

It looks like the first wave has withdrawn.

Reporting that the unit transporting the nuclear weapons from Luna II has arrived.

Commander, we’re sorry to have kept you waiting. The ship carrying nuclear weapons will soon be entering Axis.


There is a report that the v Gundam has been captured by Gyunei Guss.

What did you say?! What happened to the Gundam pilot?!

You see…

After their mobile suit was successfully captured, the pilot must have abandoned it, deeming it unusable.

I see, Gyunei is still naive. I’ll speak to him later.

You’ll keep this incident off the record, right?

Yes sir.

That Gyunei, doing unnecessary things.

We have received a report from the development department. If we analyze the captured Gundam, it will be possible for our military to develop a similar model. Would you like to send the v Gundam to the development department?

[Player Choice: NO]

Understood. The v Gundam will be moored at the Axis hangar.

Commander…

Rewloola’s surveillance camera captured a moving object that appears to be a Federation warship. It seems that a considerable number of squadrons are moving towards Axis. If they join up with the Londo Bell Corps, it will be difficult to complete the operation. Please be careful.


Commander, a second wave of Londo Bell Corps units has appeared in Axis airspace.

So they’re here?

Mobile suit squad, head to the front of the feel and intercept the Londo Bell Corps.

We have detected a heat source flying towards Axis. It appears to be cruise missiles containing nuclear warheads!

Which ones are nuclear? There shouldn’t be that many.


Reporting that the nuclear weapon-carrying Musaka-class has entered Axis.

Alright, set the nuclear bombs to detonate just before it hits Earth, and retrieve the crew.

Yes sir.

Axis begins its final acceleration! Please be careful not to allow the nuclear pulse engines to be destroyed before it finishes accelerating.


Reporting that we have successfully shot down the missiles launched by Ra Cailum.

That’s all the nuclear warheads, right Bright?!

The mooring of the nuclear weapon-carrying ship on Axis and the retrieval of its crew are complete. This ship’s nuclear weapons are essential to achieving global cooling. Please be careful not to allow it to be destroyed.
