Technical and Historical Notes

As the war with the Moonrace begins in CC 2345 on Earth's North Ameria continent, Inglessa ruler Guin Sard Lineford directs miner Sid Munzer to search the mountain cycle for mobile suits. His search yields the AMX-109 Kapool, which becomes the first mobile suit used in mass numbers by the Inglessa Militia. Though the Kapool's ammunition is no match for advanced Moonrace mobile suits like the JMA-0530 WaDom, it is extremely effective against smaller mobile suits like the MRC-U11D WaD. Later, as the spaceship Willgem travels across the ocean in its journey to the Moon, pilot Sochie Heim discovers that the Kapool is actually designed for underwater combat.
