Technical
and Historical Notes
As the war with the Moonrace began in CC 2345, Inglessa leader
Guin Sard Lineford directed miner Sid Munzer to search the mountains
for mobile suits. His search yielded the AMX-109 Kapool, which
would become the first mobile suit used in mass numbers by the
Inglessa Militia. Though the Kapool's ammunition was no match
for the armor of Moonrace suits like the JMA-0530
WaDom, it was extremely effective against other suits like
the MRC-U11D WaD. Later, as the Willgemtraveled across the ocean in its journey to the Moon, pilot
Sochie Heim discovered that the Kapool was well-suited to underwater
combat.
