[@Maki_Gundam_Talk_Ch_MegaliveGN]

The charm of the GM lies in the fact that, despite its simple appearance, it is quite a powerful mobile suit in terms of its settings. It's interesting how it can look incredibly strong depending on how it's portrayed in the anime. I personally love plot developments where mass-produced mobile suits play a significant role.

[@christianramirez1449]

Shiro Amada: "What mobile suit is that?" Mechanic: "Its called the GM Juggler, sir. It uses two modified remote control Ball units for supplemental firepower." Shiro Amada: "So... I can pilot a mobile suit AND two Ball units simultaneously?" Mechanic: "Well, technically yes sir, you could," Shiro Amada: *Eyes roll back, mouth foaming. Happy Ball/MS Pilot noises*

[@labbit35]

I feel like most of the time he’d be on the back lines controlling the ball units from afar and only actually using the GM when someone gets close. Then he goes back to using the ball units like a fighter jet and fucking destroying units so efficiently that it gives the opponents PTSD towards the ball unit.

A true work horse unit that in all honesty deserves as much love as the Zaku gets. There's also the engineering side of the GMs that shows just how optimized the production was that many could be made due to all the variants sharing so many parts.

Yeah, the 0080 GM's are my faves too, it's sad seeing them getting trashed on screen in the OVA. However, they carried the major brunt of the fighting and many of them seem to be not fully prepared (missing shields, etc) they prevented the cyclops team from accomplishing their mission and the Alex played a minor role.

[@thebigone6969]

Wow, for a war that lasted only one year and for a mobile suit that was introduced only late in that war, the GM certainly had a lot of variants! Maybe they should have made it the Three Year or Five Year War!

Originally the war against zeon predicted will last longer than one year. Before amuro piloting gundam, federation still doesn't have effective mean to train their many MS pilot.

My head cannon for the number of variants. Quick search shows the total number of active military fighter craft at around 53,000.

[@ZavarioZangrius2525]

As someone who loves Federation Mobile Suits, particularly GMs, I consider this a great early Christmas gift. As for which GMs I’d pilot during the OYW, I’d probably go the same route as an OC of mine went; starting off in a RGM-79 [G] GM Ground Type for the battles on Earth, before moving on to a vanilla RGM-79 GM in space, then a brief stint piloting a RGM-79GS GM Command Space Type, and finally a RGM-79SC GM Sniper Custom.

[@huntermad5668]

Why through? Command Space is quite powerful, maybe even better than Sniper Custom other than the options

[@Che1seabluesdrogba11]

It's insane how much materials were used in all the destroyed mobile suits in the One Year war alone

[@Ragnorok64]

The amount of mobile suits they seemingly spat out in 3 months stretches suspension of disbelief if you ever stop to think about it.

[@GalironRunner]

not really. You have a base deisgn ie form the gundam which all teh gms are based and you have people throwing unlimited funds at weapons to fight zeon. Look at weapons development during ww2 for example the ammount of odd tanks and planes throught out beside the standards like the p47 or the m4 is insane. Most never went anywhere but a whole lot of odd units got made rather fast.

[@KingBrachion92]

My OYW Pilot would have started with the Vanilla GM, before upgrading to the GM Kai by the end of the One Year War. However, in Origin's OYW he'd probably stick with the GM shoulder cannon variant all the way through. And in Thunderbolt's OYW he'd have upgraded to the Gundam Head at the end instead of the Kai.

As someone who lives in a pretty northern state, I would like to say Cold District, but between there being more potent options and the cold weather no longer being something that can be assumed will happen according to season, that's not happening. For what I'd actually want to pilot? Sniper 2, Striker, or Armored. They are versatile and powerful. Or if I really want to make things regret their positioning, cannon.

[@MasterArchfiend]

I have a soft spot for the RGM-79 GM. Which is strange because it should be the Ground GM due to its direct relation to my all time favorite MS in the entire franchise: The RX-79 [G] Gundam Ground Type. If I can’t have my dream machine, then the vanilla GM is a good runner up for me. Besides, it feels like it was produced in enough numbers that a couple discontinued units could have entered the civilian market like the Hobby Hizack and such. Although a GM Trainer might be more likely since I feel like any that weren’t just outright scrapped could have been easily converted for selling once they became too outdated for their intended purpose.

You forgot the GM Command Early Type. Basically a GM Command Ground model with a GM Cold Climate Type's backpack, but with a second beam saber. There's also an added detail of the GM Trainer. The Trainer's armor was weaker, yes. But it's frame was not. The GM Trainer's frame was reinforced because the unit was expected to take a beating when used by cadet pilots. So they were designed to last.
