1) [The Chalice has a number of new Mobile Suits joining them, including what appears to be a new Gundam-type! Oddly, the mass produced suits look like a Zaku, but they're decidedly not one! At this point, a maroon-haired girl in a ZAFT Red Coat (and pink miniskirt) approaches, giving a brief salute.]

Lunamaria Hawke, joining the White Chalice! Heh, sorry for the sudden addition, but the Chairman insisted I join you guys. The PLANTs are one of the few groups not at war with the Chalice for one reason or another and I think he wants to help with those relations. Frankly? I don't blame him...

2) [It's the middle of a battle and it's absolute chaos! Mobile Suits of all shapes and sizes duking it out for one reason or another. One of them, a brand spanking new Windam unit, slips by and attempts to strike you down... only to be shot down by the Gundam-type unit! Though, when the viewscreen comes up, it's Lunamaria! Wait, wasn't there supposed to be some angst bucket with sister issues piloting it? Does it matter? It just saved your life!]

Are you okay? That was a close one - the Earth Alliance's getting much more brutal in their actions...

3) [It seems that, despite everything, Luna seems just a little... out of it.]

...heh, you guys are lucky. You went out and saved the world from everything like the Invaders and yet we still gotta deal with ourselves. While you guys were saving the world from everything else, we almost lost it all because of nutcases who wanted to eradicate everyone. And we're stuck doing it again...

It's a little heartbraking.

Oh, that? That's one of the Wizard packs. During the war with the Earth Alliance, they had a unit called "Strike", which had a set of weapon packs that allowed it to fight in different situations. They also used it for their more advanced mass produced units.

These are our answer. I prefer the Gunner one.

Wizard packs, huh? [The gears are turning in Kamille's head already as Kamille observes the Gundam-type that was also sent along.] I take it that unit uses something similar then? Something with a bit more 'oomph', as it were?

Yep. Silhouette packs. Those were meant to really mimic "Strike"'s abilities, though ZAFT obviously one-upped themselves with it.

Sadly, we can't mix and match.

Hmmm, no, you can't, but... [Those gears are turning all the faster.] If I remember correctly, the Strike had packs that emphasized Mobility, Close Range Combat, and Long Range Combat. During the invasion of Orb, word has it that they were able to actually equip the Strike with all three packs with a bit of adjusting to create a 'Perfect Strike' of sorts. Of course, because it was a Battery powered unit, they had to give it extra batteries just so it could operate for a reasonable amount of time in the field.

If each Silhouette pack is superior to the corresponding Strike pack, what would an amalgam of those packs be like in performance?

It would probably be what you're thinking - a pack that would be superior, but such a drain in power that you'd need something more powerful to use it.

Shame that. It would probably be an impressive machine. ['Still, a backpack system could prove to be interesting to work with.'] I apologize if I'm coming off as rude here, I'm an MS Designer, so I'm always interested in what can be done to improve units.
