Super Robot Taisen EX pictures

Well, that's the first dialogue between Mio and Masaki. Mio appears as a result of the 2nd battle, where you defend a gate (one-way only, unless you're reeeally powerful... er, like the Silver Star =/, but even then, it's only enough to transport the core itself) from some guys who are invading the country, as the king seems to be quite not there (don't know really why: looking at a dictionary in the middle of a game is a little troublesome ^^;;).

As you pick her up asleep, she wakes up in Masaki's camp, along with some soldiers from a small country near the Gate.

Mio: "Kya~! Murderer! Kidnapper!"
Masaki: Shut up!! Stay quiet and listen to what I have to say, OK?


Mio's on a whole different wavelength.
Masaki: Well then...
Mio (interrupts): Well, certainly, even if you kidnap me, it won't be a crime if you marry me. You don't look bad, but I hate like guys like you who come on so strong...

Do you really expect that sort of dialogue in a mecha series? Well, a bit, but still...

Mazinger Z appears. By the way, that's the battlefield. Blue units are yours, red are the enemy's. As you can see, the robot under the brackets (Silver Star) is flying, and thus has no problem climbing the cliff. It can even transform, jeez.

Masaki: "Mazinger Z?! Then, that means those guys were brought here as well! Koji, Sayaka! Can you hear me??

Koji: Eh, Masaki! Where in blazes are we?! There's no horizon and the sun doesn't move... no matter how you look at it, this isn't on the Earth's surface, is it?!

Ta-dum. This is one of the screen where you can look info about a certain unit. This is the page about the robot. There's other two: your weapons and your pilot. This is Toulouse's robot, Burooweru (Blower? Blauwer?) Just for trivia, you can see their height, weight without and with armor, and then their HP, Energy (big attacks require this), type (this one's an Earth mecha), movement radius (7 squares here), armor, and maximum reaction capability. (not too sure of the last one). Mazinger Z's got a whopping 5800 HP.

And that's the weapons screen. There's the name of the weapon, its offensive power, maximum distance, effect on accuracy (some are easier to aim than others), and a stat I can't quite understand. Update: thanks to Wakan, got that one. It's "Remaining Ammo".

Also, in the second bar from the bottom, there's the kanji for "sky", "earth" and "sea". That's how effective the weapon is in the three elements (this one's not so good against enemies in the water). It might happen than one or more of them have '-', meaning it doesn't work at all. The weapon might require a minimum level of Intuition and Willpower (both noted there: no requirements at all), and use up some energy (10 units out of our 150 for this battle).

That's the main screen. We're in the 5th turn of the battle, with 9,850 credits. We can either end our turn (passing to the Enemy Phase), look up a list of our troops, see the battlefield from far above, change orders about how to react to enemy attacks, change game options, check the winning conditions (most of the time, Gotta Blast 'Em All), and Save.

Those two blue heads on the top of the cliff are Mio and Sayaka. Those two near the river are Toulouse and er.. just a Soldier acting as backup (the winning condition for the enemy was to kill him).

And that's it. Hope you like it! (that is, hope someone reads this.. xDD)
