SAA-GNC-3-MKII Saga Striker Gear

The SAA-GNC-3-MkII Saga Field Gear is a Gen III Tech Type Mobile Suit used by Star Strike in Suits and Armors and is a redesign of the GNC-3 Saga used during the Anti-A-LAWS campaign and the War against the Innovators. Specifically, the Saga Field Gear was designed for Star Strike pilots who plan to pursue the role of Field Tech. As such, the Saga Field Gear was built for boosting the performance of allied machines and administering quick repairs to damages in the field until proper repairs can be given.

Technology and Combat Characteristics:
Weapon-wise, the Saga Field Gear is technically a basic Saga with standard equipment. A set of vulcans are mounted in the head of the unit, with a standard pairing of Beam Rifle and Beam Saber for general, all-around combat capabilites. Due to its classification as a Field Tech type MS, the unit possesses modified weaponry specifically suited for quick repairs in the field and probes that let it grant temporary increases to the capabilites of an allied Mobile Suit. Additional, secondary weaponry is also added as last-resort based weaponry. The Mobile Suit uses a GN Drive Tau enhanced with GN Capacitor technology for power.

Weaponry:

 * GN-Physical Sword
 * The Saga's GN-Physical Sword is incorporated into the Saga Field Gear's armaments, it is similar in design to Exia’s physical sword, instead of lining the blade with GN-Particles, the blade is enhanced by a unique beam saber lining. Granting it the same ability of blocking beam sabers but also granting it the ability to produce high levels of heat to burn through other physical weapons or armor.


 * Beam Saber:
 * A standard Beam Saber incorporated into the Saga Field Gear's araments, the Beam Saber is used for close-quarters combat. A secondary Welding feature is incorporated into the Beam Saber used by a Field Gear Saga for quick repairs to an allied unit.


 * Particle Beam Magnum:
 * The Saga's Particle Beam Magnum is incorporated into the Saga Field Gear's armaments, it is a high output particle rifle. The rifle utilizes GN-Particles to create a small highly compressed particle beam capable of tearing through mobile suits with ease. It features a rapid recharge and can fire multiple beams at once or combine them into a larger beam.


 * Vulcan x2:
 * Used primarily for point-defense and CQC, the Saga Field Gear mounts a duo of GN Vulcans in the head of the unit. These are fairly low-power weapons usable only at close to medium ranges.


 * Shield:
 * A basic physical shield equipped with a GN Shield generator for defensive purposes. Field Techs use the shield in conjunction with the beam rifle for shoot and block tactics.

Booster Probes:
For increasing the capabilities of an allied Mobile Suit, the Saga Field Gear comes equipped with a total of 20 Booster Probes, which grant a boost to certain specs of an allied Mobile Suit for a set time. The Saga Field Gear possesses 4 different types of Booster Probes.
 * Power Probes: grants a 3 turn boost to the burst, beam, remote, and critical stats of an allied Mobile Suit. Possesses 5 Power Probs in total.
 * Armor Probes: grants a 5 turn boost to the absorption stat of an allied Mobiel Suit. Possesses 5 Armor Probes in total.
 * Thruster Probes: grants a 3-5 turn boost to the speed, burst, and evade stats of an allied Mobile Suit. Possesses 5 Thruster Probes in total.
 * Drive Probes: grants a 3-5 turn boost to the Particles and Special stats of an allied Mobile Suit. Possesses 5 Drive Probes in total.
