Based on the original Gundam TV series, Gundam: Zeonic Front allows the player to experience the One Year War from the perspective of the Principality of Zeon. It's the year 0079, and the Zeons must fight to regain control of Earth as the Earth Federation, with its superior resources, begins taking Zeon-controlled territory one battle at a time. The player becomes the commander of a famed mobile suit company, and leads his troops in a fight for the Principality of Zeon's independence from the Earth Federation. The player commands up to three platoons in every mission, and devises his own strategy for accomplishing each objective. The abundant variety of missions, engaging story lines, and realistic battlefields make this real-time strategy game highly replayable.
