Technology & Combat Characteristics
Edit
The Extreme Gundam is designed to house in several armor packs to suit in any combat situations. The head unit is unique as it contains four different head formations for each of its armor packs. The unit's standard armaments includes 2 Vulcan Guns stored on it's arms instead on it's head, 2 beam sabers for close combat and a Extreme Rifle for primary ranged weaponry.
The Extreme Gundam also has Armor Packs depending on the combat situations. One of them is the Carnage Phase Armor Pack, which gives the unit long ranged attack capabilities through two large shoulder mounted cannons. Another is the Tachyon Phase Armor Pack, which gives the Extreme Gundam powerful melee attacks and thick armor through the use of a gigantic sword stored on the back of the suit. To make up for the total lack of ranged weaponry, the Tachyon Phase Extreme Gundam is capable of generating and hurling gigantic electric spheres at its enemies by detaching its forearms. Another one is the Ignith Phase, a powerful MS capable of the dreaded 360 degree attack range. It mounts large funnels, and the armor is generally styled after the AMX-004 Qubeley. It is worthwhile noting that the Ignith Phase uses the back of the head as a face, which gives it a somewhat feminine appearance. The Carnage phase uses the same face as the Extreme Gundam without any armor packs, while in Tachyon Phase, the faceplate of the head is opened.
