After completing all normal stages, I’ve finally reached the EX Stages, and they’re tough!
For EX I, I’ve used a moderate team, as it was after completing SEED stages, the pilots and units were in good form, though I couldn’t complete all War Breaks (I reloaded after one of my units got IHKO by a Geara Doga O_o).
For EX II, my team was formed by many level 1 grunt suits and a few good leveled pilots, so I gave up even before the 1st Wars Break.
For EX III I used good suits with all main characters possible, though many of them are still in low level (got Kira and Usso as my two last scout links), so I stopped at the last Wars Break once again.

• What’s up with SEED series and all the time limited stages, really?
• V’s stage is tough if you let Angel Hailow affect your team
• EX Stages I, II and III: antagonists showdown, no Wars Breaks for me
• Let the grinding begin!

I’ve been postponing the last stage of Wing in fear of the Planet Defensors (trauma from F, I guess), so I’ve been playing a few random unplayed stages. So far:

• Time-limited stages can be annoying, specially Turn A’s 2nd stage where enemies come from all sides and your team isn’t fit, as in non-flight capable or have limited move range
• Trying to fill the One Year War “low-tier” units profiles, from a Type 61 Tank and going upward
• Using Minerva can be a pain to units with low movement range: their only way out is going sideways
• I’m surprised that they’re using Anna ni Issho datta noni and Kimi wa Boku ni Niteiru as Kira’s and Shinn’s Super Strike BGMs, respectively, yet there’s no special song for Seabook (Kimi wo Mitsumete would have been nice)
• So far the CG movie cut-scenes are awesome in their thematic and cross-over situations, although Turn A’s feels out of place somehow
• Spamming Meer’s Zaku Warrior’s Map weapon is amazing at first, but not amusing for those wanting challenge

The folks at the Wars’ Japanese wiki and GameFAQs unveiled some calculations made to predict the Unit Exchange choices. I’ve compiled my own list at the Exchange table, based on the published math and units I had available, thus making the old table kinda useless.

Anyway, here’s a rundown of my playthrough this week, read more for more details:

• Option Parts: Additional Hangars! Just what I needed! Time to buy a Ptolomeus
• Gundam X’s finale is quite tough for a no-grinding game because of Cloudas and GN-Xs
• Next scout link: Amuro (0079), and One Year War warships are made available
• A few more 1st stages: Zeta, F91 and SEED Destiny

The game is officially out this week and people already finished it, the amount of people’s free time is quite impressive! Unlike them, I’m going slowly through a few stages per night as time allows me, hence I’ve only got a few cleared stages and units so far.

I’ve compiled a table for the Unit Exchanges available that I had the chance to note down. Read more for this week’s playthrough details.
