Mobile Suit



Mobile Suit: The arrival of the mobile suit concept resulted in the end of the mobile pod supremacy as the multipurpose robotic device. The mobile suit concept was introduced in OC0030 as an enhancer of the human body, in terms of reach, strength, endurance and dexterity. This “suit” could copy its operator movements in order to perform complicated tasks, in extreme environments, such as space. The first models where roughly three or four times the size of a man. It didn’t take long to realize the battle potential of these machines, and Brirland was the first nation to militarize the concept, building the first combat oriented mobile suit, the Brirm. This machine was almost the same size of the regular mobile suit but had built in weapons, such as grenade launchers and gatling cannons. Taking most of the nations off guard, Brirland started its invasion streak. Later, Neo Edo revolutionized the mobile suit industry, with bigger, stronger and faster suits that would turn the edge in its favor. Neo Edo changed the piloting method, with a mix of automated actions and real time movement imitation for the upper section of the body, so the suit can make use of the swordsmanship of its pilots. The mobile suit concept stands nowadays as the most effective multipurpose machine that has been created by humankind.
