The X-ATL-01-DT Zwerg was a light class armored trooper designed for desert environments. The Zwerg was produced in wide numbers by the Secret Society and used during their campaign on planet Quent late in Astragius Year 7214. Because it was designed for desert use, the Zwerg used the ski-type sand roader to move instead of the standard gliding wheels used in many other units. The Zwerg was armed with a pair of arm-mounted machine guns and could also carry a solid shooter bazooka.

Fun fact: The OST for the G-Saviour PS2 game got a physical release. King Record released the 1-disc 31-track CD on January 25, 2001. Unfortunately, it’s not a cheap pickup. Only so many copies were made, and as a result, it fetches high prices online ($125+)!
