gundam physalis

During its military reconstruction following the devastating One Year War, the Earth Federation contracts a private company, Anaheim Electronics, to develop a series of new Gundam-model mobile suits to serve as conceptual testbeds for new and improved mobile suit technology. One of the first prototypes to come out of Anaheim's Von Braun City lunar factory is the RX-78GP02A Gundam, code-named "Physalis." Built expressly for tactical nuclear warfare, the GP02A's primary armament is a large atomic bazooka, capable of launching a strategic-use Mark-82 nuclear warhead. The GP02A is also heavily armored enough to withstand the nuclear blast unleashed by its bazooka, and even carries a shield large enough to provide extra protection for most of the unit's body and contains cooling systems to help dissipate the heat it absorbs. The shield also carries the trigger and barrel for the atomic bazooka when it's not deployed for use. The GP02A is also designed to survive in close combat, being armed with standard head vulcan guns and a pair of beam sabers. With enough thrusters and verniers to keep it fast and agile despite its mass, the GP02A is truly "tactical" in a sense, though its use has "strategic" consequences for the Earth Sphere.

The GP02A and another prototype, the RX-78GP01 Gundam "Zephyranthes", along with Anaheim systems engineer Nina Purpleton and her team of technicians, are brought aboard the assault carrier Albion to be delivered to Earth for testing under full gravity in October UC 0083. Arriving at the Torrington Base in Australia for the field trials, the GP02A is loaded with a nuclear warhead, but is immediately hijacked by Zeon remnants led by Anavel Gato. In the weeks to follow, Gato escapes into space with his stolen Gundam, joining up with Admiral Aiguille Delaz's fleet for a critical roll in their "Operation Stardust." To diffuse the Delaz threat, the Federation Forces carry out their naval review ceremony, assembling most of the entire Federation fleet at the Konpeitoh asteroid base in a show of force. However, this is a primary target of Operation Stardust, and Gato uses the GP02A's nuclear warhead to single-handedly destroy or disable two-thirds of the fleet stationed there. The GP02A is subsequently destroyed in a duel with the RX-78GP01-Fb Gundam Full Vernian "Zephyranthes", although both pilots survive.

 RX-78GP01-Fb Gundam Full Vernian "Zephyranthes"
Although the RX-78GP01 Gundam "Zephyranthes" mobile suit is intended to be upgraded for use in space, the uprising of Zeon remnants in October UC 0083 moves this project up considerably. The GP01, not being properly calibrated for space combat, is critically damaged by Zeon forces when its pilot, Kou Uraki, carelessly takes the mobile suit out into battle. The damaged GP01 is immediately taken to Anaheim Electronics' Von Braun City factory on the Moon to be repaired and reconfigured for space use. Soon after, the rebuilt and improved RX-78GP01-Fb Gundam Full Vernian "Zephyranthes" is rolled out and goes through a rapid battery of test trials before being redeployed aboard the Federation assault carrier Albion in pursuit of the stolen Gundam GP02A. The Full Vernian GP01 is a tremendous improvement over its original form, almost doubling its acceleration and with a marked increase in maneuverability. It also features an improved space-use version of its Core Fighter II, incorporating the mobile suit's large thruster- and vernier-laden backpack into its design. Following the nuclear attack on Konpeitoh, the GP01Fb is destroyed in a final duel with the GP02A.

MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam
The Gryps Conflict sees the introduction of many new experimental mobile suit technologies. Anti-Earth Union Group pilot Kamille Bidan, being a mobile suit design hobbyist, begins designing a next-generation mobile suit for himself. With the aid of AEUG chief mechanic Astonaige Medoz, Kamille's design so impresses the engineers at Anaheim Electronics that they volunteer to build the suit for him under the flag of the AEUG's "Project Zeta." Initial tests occur on a non-transformable version, the MSZ-006-X1 Prototype Zeta Gundam X1. Called the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam ("Z" being read as the Greek "zeta"), this unit represents many of the changes in mobile suit design philosophies occurring at the time.

Inspired by the RX-178 Gundam Mark II's "movable frame" design, the Zeta Gundam is also built around a movable frame capable of transforming the mobile suit into a fighter-like form called a "waverider." This VMSAWRS (Variable Mobile Suit and WaveRider System) unit not only gives the Zeta Gundam added speed and mobility in waverider mode, but also allows it to make an atmospheric re-entry from space on its own without the aid of ballute packs or other external re-entry systems. Part of the waverider mode's form is composed of "wing binders" - which have already seen experimental use in another Project Zeta design, the MSN-00100 Hyaku Shiki - and a "tail binder," all of which not only serve as control surfaces for the waverider in atmospheric flight, but also contain extra thrusters and work as additional "balancing limbs" in mobile suit mode.

The Zeta Gundam's armament is fairly standard, composed of head vulcan guns, a beam rifle and a pair of beam sabers which double as forward-firing beam guns in waverider mode. However, the Zeta Gundam has an additional edge with its bio-sensor - a device developed by Anaheim in an attempt to build a smaller-scale, more economical psycommu system. Though the exact nature of the bio-sensor is unknown, its primary purpose is to allow a Newtype pilot to more easily interface with his mobile suit. The bio-sensor can also have a rather surprising side effect when the pilot is mentally and emotionally focused enough (usually when angry or upset) to cause the bio-sensor to amplify the power, speed and strength of the mobile suit for a short period of time. Kamille's strong emotions create this effect on more than one occasion - turning the Zeta Gundam into a truly unstoppable force when the Newtype pilot is mad enough.

The Zeta Gundam is delivered to the AEUG flagship carrier Argama in mid-UC 0087, where it serves as a frontline assault unit in the AEUG's war against the corrupt Titans. At the same time, Anaheim begins producing the simplified Zeta Plus series for AEUG's Earth-based support organization, Karaba. Following the end of the Gryps Conflict, the Zeta Gundam remains in service for another year, as the AEUG immediately finds itself plunged into the First Neo Zeon War and fighting for its very survival. Though Kamille is mentally incapacitated at the end of the Gryps Conflict, the Zeta Gundam finds itself in other hands, operated by the AEUG's various new pilots, including the equally powerful Newtype youth Judau Ashta. When inexperienced Judau uses the Zeta Gundam in a space battle with Mashymre Cello's AMX-103 Hamma-Hamma, the result is that the Zeta Gundam gets its head blown off. With no replacement head available, Judau's friend Iino Abbav decides to use the head of an old MS-06F Zaku II salvaged in space by Judau. This strange field modification earns it the nickname "Zeta Zaku." This field repair is used only once in battle until a replacement head can be built. The Zeta Gundam remains in service until the end of that war when it is critically damaged during a battle inside the Neo Zeon asteroid base Axis. The Zeta Gundam's design serves as the inspiration for several later Federation Forces units, including the RGZ-91 Re-GZ (from UC 0093's Second Neo Zeon War) and the RGZ-95 ReZEL (from UC 0096's Laplace Incident).

RX-93 ν Gundam


The ν Gundam was one of the most advanced mobile suits of its time in U.C. 0093, together with Char Aznable's MSN-04 Sazabi, designed and used by Amuro Ray himself during the Second Neo Zeon War. It was manufactured at Anaheim Electronics' Von Braun plant and completed in a short period of time (about three months) under the supervision of chief engineer October Saran. Its design is based on the average value of specifications of each successive generations of Gundam-type units from the the original Gundam to the ΖΖ Gundam, and updated with state-of-the-art technologies introduced at the time.
The ν Gundam's design also focuses on versatility and operational aspects as well as emphasis on reliability and durability for protracted battles. It adopts unitized parts that are designed according to EFF standards, except for the Psycoframe, for easier procurement of parts and materials and reducing special components as much as possible. It can be easily repaired due to maintenance feedback and combat data. In addition, it reflects Amuro Ray's experience as an MS pilot cultivated over the years.
Although its development was only partially completed at the time of its deployment, the ν Gundam proved itself to be a formidable mobile suit. The operating data obtained from the Silver Bullet (Funnel Test Type) was used in its development. It is the first Gundam-type machine to be equipped with Funnels. A newly developed MS control program is installed to account for the ν Gundam's center of mass during the separation and movement of the Funnel equipment.
Incorporating the Psycoframe technology secretly provided to Anaheim Electronics by Char Aznable of Neo Zeon, the ν Gundam was able to utilize Psycommu weapons and channel the emotions and mental energies of a suitable Newtype pilot. When combined with legendary ace pilot Amuro Ray's immense skill and experience, this powerful, state-of-the-art mobile suit was able to almost single-handedly hold the whole Neo Zeon force by just itself, and its Psycoframe was put to the test to determine the history of humanity living on earth

no. 1
RX-0 Unicorn Gundam


Produced as a part of the E.F.S.F's reorganization plan - the "UC Project " - the Unicorn Gundam is a revolutionary design and to be the main symbol of the "U.C. project's" main goal - to destroy any traces of Zeonism in the Earth Sphere - and thus not only does it features a Gundam design, but also incorporates an anti-Newtype system. However, when the Vist Foundation took control of the project, they turned the Gundam into a symbol of possibility by making it the key to finding Laplace's Box - the embodied hope of the Universal Century. Featuring the most advanced mobile suit technology of the time, the machine's performance is unmatched.
Incorporating test data obtained from the experimental MSN-06S Sinanju Stein, the entire frame is lined with psyco-frame receptors, drastically increasing the responsiveness of the unit and allowing it to be piloted like an extension of the pilot's body. In some cases, this responsiveness is so high that it appears the suit acts on its own without any actions from the pilot. In addition, the Unicorn utilizes a special "La+ Program" OS and a system known as the "NT-D" (or Newtype Destroyer) which activates the suit's psyco-frame and dramatically increases the suit's performance.
In its normal mode, the Unicorn's head is similar in appearance to those of Londo Bell's mass-produced mobile suits, with the addition of a single, horn-like antenna extending from the forehead (hence the name "Unicorn"). In terms of its armaments in normal mode, the Unicorn is very lightly armed, with half of its built-in weaponry only being available in Destroy Mode.
Destroy Mode is the form the Unicorn Gundam takes when its NT-D System is activated. The transformation is marked by an expansion of the suit's frame. The armor seams separate and lock down into various hard-points, while the newly exposed psyco-frame emits a pinkish-red glow (attributed to a psyco-frame luminescence phenomenon). In this mode, the mobile suit becomes taller and its head transforms to one having standard Gundam features, the visor and face guard retracts into the head to reveal the mouth plate and the antenna splitting into a V-fin. In order to prevent its transformation being interrupted, its I-Field strength will be increased, at least temporary. Additionally a pair of beam Vulcan guns will be revealed on the shoulders, and two additional beam sabers will extend out of the backpack.
In this form, the suit's psyco-frame scans the pilot's thoughts and directly transmits them to the suit's drive system; in other words, the Unicorn can ultimately be controlled by the pilot's thoughts alone. The machine's performance - its mobility in particular - is dramatically increased when the NT-D is active partially due to the exposure and activation of six additional thrusters. In addition to the performance boost, the NT-D also allows the Unicorn to take control of an enemy's psycommu weapons. However, the stress placed on the mind by manipulating an object more than tenfold the size of an average human is extraordinary.
Even with the aid of the psyco-frame the pilot's mind can only endure roughly five minutes of operation before a safeguard is believed to activate, deactivating the psyco-frame and returning the mobile suit to its normal form. Furthermore, the system activates not according to the pilot's discretion, but automatically upon the detection of another Newtype. The system also directs the movement of the suit when active, and does not completely depend on the pilot for commands. By default, the system will automatically attempt to destroy any Newtype enemies it detects, but requires the pilot to give it a conscience so it does not merely become a killing machine.

Leo and Taurus compatibility

Cold prudence and strong desire to rule - these two elements will collide in a union of Taurus woman and Leo man, to never for a moment leave him alone. The compatibility horoscope warns that these zodiac signs are strangers to each other, and that only a miracle or a deliberate peacemaking effort of both spouses can keep the marriage afloat.

Taurus woman is unlikely to like the Leo man's eternal desire for superiority. Besides, she feels that he truly deserves accolades: a talented, bright individualist, striving for perfection, subtle aesthetic and serious sage, Leo man has a far greater understanding of the world than she is. Taurus woman understands that she is losing to Leo in many respects, but stubbornness does not allow her to openly admit this, and she enters into a fight for an equal division of roles within the family. Leo will never in life be submissive, although he is ardently devoted to family, while the vainglorious Taurus is so stubborn that she comes on the heels of Leo and constantly grumbles about equality...The saddest thing is that many couples in such a way exist for many years until death. This situation cannot be called a war, but there is also no peace in the family. However, Leo man and Taurus woman need to know what they are persistent signs, and they have a strikingly identical quality on which they can build their own world. Leo man has an inquisitive mind, and often bears grandiose projects, of which he lacks even his lion forces to execute the projects. If Taurus woman gets interested to him by the intended result, and he explains how profits will be derived from the execution of this plan, Leo will get a right and an executive fellow and associate. Taurus woman will happily take on much of the practical works: this zodiac sign is stubborn and at the same time loves money very much. The healthy pursuit for materially secured future, the strong couple of Leo man and Taurus woman can build not only a family but also a good family business.

Taurus woman tends to ignore Leo's orders that sound as forcing. When Leo begins to put pressure on his woman, and her patience overflows, then arises a natural situation of confrontation, which can lead to very unpleasant consequences. According to the compatibility horoscope, it is clear that in this couple, Leo man should restrain his dictatorial tendencies and be more flexible in relationship, while Taurus woman should orders her commitment to fighting for leadership, and devote all her energy in building a hearth, on equal terms with her loved Leo.

Appearing in both Greek and Roman mythology, Cerberus has also been depicted numerous times in various game titles. According to the Greek legend, Cerberus was was given birth by Echidna, a hybrid half-woman and half-serpent, and Typhon, which we will will cover later in the article.  Cerberus was featured in the stories of Hercules as the last labor in which the hero must captured the monster alive with no tools.
There are currently some disagreement over the representation of the three heads. Some said that they represent past, present and future while others have argued that they represent birth, youth and old age.

Charybdis picture

Charybdis was interpreted as either a sea monster or as a large whirlpool in the Greek mythology. In the former, she was portrayed as the daughter of the sea god Poseidon and goddess of Earth, Gaia. In this interpretation, she had a mouth for a face and had to swollen huge amounts of water each day. When Charybdis belch the water back, it lead to the formation of large whirlpools.
Charybdis was featured in the story of Odysseus, who had to cross a narrow channel in the Strait of Messina. On one side of the channel lies Charybdis while the other side lays a hydra monster by the name of Scylla. To cross the channel successfully, Odysseus had to balance the ship’s navigation well. This give arise to the modern saying of “‘between Scylla and Charybdis’”, which means that choosing between 2 dangers.

Chimera picture

Chimera was eventually killed by the Greek hero Bellerophon, with the help of another Greek mythology creature. the Pegasus. Due to Pegasus’s ability to fly, it kept Bellerophon away from the fire breath of the Chimera. The killing blow is said to be a spear that was thrown by Bellerophon. The spear contained a lump of lead that was melted by Chimera’s fire breath and killed the creature.

The Erinyes were known to be entities of vengeance. They were born out of the blood of Uranus when Cronus castrated him. It is unknown how many Erinyes were there although their physical attributes were unmistakeable. They had serpents around their waist and had blood dripping from their eyes.
In the Greek mythology, they appeared to Orestes and try to hunt him when he killed his sisters on the orders of Apollo, the god of sun. Eventually, Orestes managed to escape to Athena template where he was given a trial, attended by both the Erinyes and Apollo. Orestes was later found to be not guilty and was released from pursuit by the Erinyes.

Gorgon picture

Unknown to many, Medusa is not the only Greek mythology monster with snakes as hair.  The general name of such a monster was known as the Gorgons. Throughout history, there have been many interpretations and stories of how the Gorgons came about and what were their roles. The most famous was of course the version with the three sisters, otherwise known as Stheno (the mighty), Euryale (the far-springer), and Medusa (the queen).
In this version of the story, Medusa was the only Gorgon who was not immortal. As such, King Polydectes sent Perseus to deal with Medusa in the hope that he would be killed. Fortunately, Perseus was armed with the shield of Athena, the goddess of war, and used it as a mirror to avoid glazing into the eyes of Medusa. Perseus eventually cut off Medusa’s head and presented it to Athena, who then used it to turn Atlas into a stone mountain that supports the heaven and earth.

Graeae picture

Graeae are the three sisters who shared one eye and one mouth. They were birth by Phorcys and Ceto and were in fact sisters to the Gordons (See above). The names of the three Graeae sisters are Deino, Enyo and Pemphredo. Although mot stories portrayed the Graeae sisters as old hags, some poets actually described them as beautiful creatures.
The Graeae sisters appeared in many pop culture including the second book of Percy, as well as in the 2010 movie, Clash of the Titans. In the Greek legend, it was the Graeae sisters who directed Perseus on how to kill the Medusa, although the hero did steal the eye from them before they are willing to do so.

Griffin picture

Made famous by the Harry Potter series of book, Griffin is the Greek mythology creature that give arise to Harry’s house called Gryffindor.  The creature itself is an amalgamation of two creatures, the body of a lion, and the wings and head of an eagle.  Given that both the lion and the eagle are kings of animals and birds respectively, it is said that the Griffin was the king of all creatures. Interestingly, there is actually no Greek stories that featured Griffin but it is known to be featured in ancient Greek drawings and literature.

Harpy picture

Harpies are the daughters of Thaumas and Electra. They were featured in the story about Phineas, who was punished by Zeus for revealing too much of god’s secrets. The punishment involved putting Phineas in an island that always had good food but which he cannot touch. This is because the harpies would come down and steal all the good food before Phineas can have a chance to eat. This continued until the arrival of Jason and the Argonauts. Among them, the Boreads, who can fly, helped to drive the harpies away.

Hippalectryon picture

Hippalectryon is a relatively unknown Greek mythology creature because it was not featured in any of the legends or folktales. However, hippalectryon can be found in sculptures and ceramics thus proving that it indeed was part of the Greek mythology. Part roaster part horse, it is one of the strangest creature that I have come across.

Hippocamps picture

This is the famous 9 headed serpant that made appearances in movies such as Percy and the Lighting Thief.  Hydra was not a creature of nature as it was raise to Earth by Hera, one of Zeus’s wife. Its sole purpose was to kill Hercules as part of his 12 labors.
In the second labor, Hercules was tasked to kill Hydra. However, the beast had the ability to regrow any of the heads that Hercules had cut off. Finally, Hercules recruited the help of his cousin, Iolaus, who came up with the idea of burning the stump after the head was cut off. This idea worked and Hercules managed to cut off all the Hydra’s heads.

Lamia picture

Lamia was once the beautiful queue of Libya but was later transformed into a man eating demon with a serpent tail. The reason for this transformation has been the subject of much interpretation. One story told how this was caused by Hera forcing Lamia to eat her own children. Others said that Hera directly gave Lamia the monster appearance. Whatever the origin, Lamia has been used extensively in many folktales and stories.

Manticore picture

The manticore is a creature that reassebles the Sphinx as it also possessed the body of a lion and the head of a human. The manticore started as a Persian mythology creature but was later reflected in the Greek mythology. Due to the many versions of how the creature looks, the manticore might be depicted as having wings and/or having a scorpion tail.

Minotaur picture

Minotaur is the well known creature that is half bull and half man. What is less known is its origin. The story started with the King of Crete, Minos, praying to Poseidon for support. As sign of this support, Poseidon would send Minos a white bull which he had to killed as a sacrifice. However, Minos loved the white bull so much that he attempted to swap the white bull for one of his own. Furious at this action, Poseidon ordered the goddess of love to  casted a spell on Mino’s wife, Pasiphaë, to fall in love with the Cretan Bull. They mated and their offspring was Minotaur. However, this half man, half beast devoured man for food. Minos thus had no choice but to order Daedalus to build a large maze which could contained Minotaur.
In the Greek legend, Minotaur was slayed by the hero Theseus.  The latter volunteered himself as the sacrifice on behalf of the people of Athen. On arriving on Crete, the daughter of Minos fell in love with Theseus and helped him to navigate the maze to find Minotaur. However, upon slaying the beast, Theseus eventually choose the other daughter of Minos, Phaedra, as his wife.

Ophiotaurus picture

Ophiotaurus was a Greek mythology creature that isn’t very well known. In fact, I only got to know about it because this creature was mentioned in the third book of Percy and the Olympians. Ophiotaurus had the head of a bull and the body of a sea serpant. It was a vastly powerful creature that was birthed from the same Chaos that give arise to Gaia, Mother of Earth. It is believed Ophiotaurus’s entrails can grant the welder the power to defeat gods.

Despite their popularity, Satyr were not featured prominently in any Greek mythology.

Sirens picture

Sirens are beautiful creatures that used their voices to lure sailors to their hideout at the cliffs where they would crash to their deaths. Most of the literature depicted Sirens as having a bird’s body but the artist rendition used a fish body instead.  It is said that if anybody heard the sirens’ voice and survive, they would kill themselves.
Sirens was featured in the story of Odysseus. To hear the sirens’ voices without dying, Odysseus ordered his men to stuff their ears with bees’ wax while he himself was tied to the ship. When the ship was within the range of the Sirens’ voices, Odysseus begged his men to go to the voice but they ignored him. Once the ship was outside the influence of the voices, Odysseus woke up from his obsession and sailed away unharmed. The Sirens then flung themselves to the water and perished.

Sphinx picture

The Stymphalian Birds were the sixth labor of Hercules, who was tasked to kill all the birds in the swamp. These birds were characterized by their beaks of steel and appetite for human flesh.  In this labor, Hercules was helped by Hephaestus, the god of technology, who gave a rattle to the hero. With it in hand, Hercule frightened the birds into the air from where he quickly fired arrows to kill them off.

Typhon picture

Typhon is one of the most powerful Greek mythology creature. Together with Echidna, it gave birth to many of the monsters that were featured above including Chimera, Cerberus, Spinx etc.
Typhon is said to be really huge. Its upper body is human like and is said to be taller than a mountain. His bottom half comprised of large vipers that can reach far out in any directions.
In the battle between Gaia and Zeua, Typhon was sent by Gaia as the last resort to destroy the Gods. In the first battle with Zeua, Typhon actually won by capturing Zeus’ sinews.  Fortunately, the god of speed recovered the sinews. In the second battle, Zeua managed to defeat Typhon and sealed him under Mount Etna.

Leo and Aries compatibility

Oh yeah how unequal is this union! Although these two people share one element - Fire, they are strong by nature, their zodiac signs are set only on interactions, but for them, grievances, recriminations, and mutual quarrels are unavoidable.

Zodiac sign Aries is hot-tempered, self-willed, headstrong and has a very capricious character. Aries woman is no complex, she always behaves as the way it is seen fit. Zodiac sign Leo - is a ruler by nature, always striving for leadership, he is authoritative, noble, always consistent in his actions. At acquaintance, they both will notice each other's strengths, and will simply be happy that they met strong people - people like themselves. But after a while, Leo man with astonishment and indignation will watch his woman's impulsivity, disorganization, complete lack of order in her thoughts and deeds. She is forgetful, confuses dates and events, and at that is hot-tempered and indomitable temperament. Leo man would want to cut her down to size, but Aries woman sees any opposition no other way than as an attack on her freedom: She would not give up without a fight, and would quickly take the defense.

If these two open war between each other - it promises to be protracted and bloody. Leo man and Aries woman are not used to giving up their positions, and after a time of confrontation, they will understand that it is easier for them to disperse in different directions, than to prove anything to the other partner. According to the compatibility horoscope, this couple has a lot of chances for a happy life, as well as for a complete breakdown. Since the Leo man and Aries woman are passionate and warm in nature, their reconciliation will take place in bed, where their hot temper will be transformed into passionate love. According to the compatibility horoscope, it is clear that the "fire" in both partners allows them to reach agreement and understanding through physical love, which could significantly strengthen their marriage, and serve as a "method" to achieving peace.

Strange, but Aries woman needs to prove her power more than the Leo man. He is natural king, and he has no reason to prove its superiority, while Aries woman will seek to continue a list of her victories. In this case, Aries woman does not abhor small, domestic, daily victories, increasing the degree of her superiority in the eyes of others. Leo man striving for excellence, will never use dishonest means to achieve goals. It is easier to lose than to act unjustly. There can be unique, deep relationship between a Leo man and an Aries woman because they guess the mood of each other by internal intuition. They are always changing, trying to change the world for themselves, and this means that the relationship between them will never become boring and routine.

top five wrestling stable

no 5.
Evolution was a professional wrestling stable on WWE's Raw brand between 2003 and 2005. At the height of its existence, the group consisted of Triple H, Ric Flair, Randy Orton and Batista. Each of the members represented the best in "the past" (Ric Flair), "the present" (Triple H), and "the future" (Randy Orton and Batista) of professional wrestling.
Evolution slowly began dissolving in 2004. The group turned on Orton the night following SummerSlam, when he won the World Heavyweight Championship and kicked him out. After winning the Royal Rumble in 2005 and teasing that he would chase the WWE Championship, Batista turned on Triple H and decided to pursue the World Heavyweight Championship himself. Although Batista's departure was largely the end for the group, the final break up came when Triple H turned on and attacked Flair.


 no. 4 the four horsemen                   

                                                      The Four Horsemen were a professional wrestling stable in the National Wrestling Alliance and later World Championship Wrestling. The original group featured Ric Flair, Arn and Ole Anderson and Tully Blanchard. Ric Flair and Arn Anderson have been constant members in each incarnation of the group except once following Arn Anderson's neck injury where Curt Hennig was given Arn's spot in the Horsemen. 



no. 3 the nexus
 



The Nexus and the New Nexus were a villainous professional wrestling stable in the professional wrestling promotion, WWE, that competed on its Raw brand. The group originally consisted of all eight rookies of NXT season one and shifted their roster several times throughout their existence. Their initial goal was to obtain WWE contracts for all members—save for original Nexus leader Wade Barrett, who was already guaranteed a contract for winning NXT. The group went on to antagonize the Raw roster, with John Cena as their main focus, who forcibly became a member of Nexus via a match stipulation at Hell in a Cell. Cena eventually exited the group by being fired at Survivor Series but was later rehired by Barrett. By the start of 2011, Wade Barrett was exiled from the group by CM Punk, who became the group's new leader. Under Punk's leadership, the group was renamed to the New Nexus and became a tight-knit group dedicated to one another by faith.
Under the leadership of both Barrett and Punk, The Nexus' most noticeable trait was that all members wore a black armband bearing the group's trademark black and yellow "N" logo; David Otunga was the only constant member. Throughout its existence, the group won the WWE Tag Team Championships three times and Punk won the WWE Championship in his final match with the stable.

 no 2 NWO



The New World Order (commonly known and stylized as the nWo) was a professional wrestling stable in World Championship Wrestling (WCW)and the World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment (WWF/E).[2] The stable originated in WCW with the gimmick of a group of unsanctioned wrestlers aiming to "take over" and control WCW in the manner of a street gang; the group's initial three members and several others had gained fame in the rival WWF, although this connection was only implied. The group later appeared in the WWF (now known as WWE) after the purchase of WCW by the WWF,[2] and a similar group, known as The Band appeared on Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) in 2010. Although a resurrection of the nWo was implied, this group was never billed as such, since WWE owns the rights to all WCW trademarks.
The nWo angle became one of the most influential forces in the late 1990s success of WCW, and was instrumental in turning mainstream American wrestling back into a more mature, adult-oriented product. The brainchild of WCW Executive Eric Bischoff, and fueled initially by the unexpected heel turn of Hulk Hogan, the nWo storyline is generally considered one of the most successful angles in the history of modern-day professional wrestling, spawning several imitations and parodies (including groups such as bWo, lWo and oWn). It dominated WCW programming throughout the late-1990s and almost until the dissolution of WCW in 2001, during which time there were several, sometimes rival incarnations of the group. As a result of so many members having joined, the nWo holds the record of the biggest wrestling stable in wrestling history.

 no.1 degeneration x




D-Generation X (also known and spelled as Degeneration X, DX and D-X) is a professional wrestling stable in WWE (previously the World Wrestling Federation and World Wrestling Entertainment). The group originated in the midst of the WWF's "Attitude Era" from 1997 to 2000.Their gimmick was that of a gang of rebels who broke the rules, acted and spoke as they pleased, no matter how provocative and/or insulting. Noted for their crude, profane humor and sophomoric pranks, the stable has been dubbed multiple times as the "most controversial group in WWF/E history".
After its original run with members Rick Rude, Chyna, Triple H and Shawn Michaels, the group expanded to become a mainstay of the Attitude Era with new additions X-Pac, the New Age Outlaws, Tori until it disbanded in August 2000. After a teased reunion in 2002, DX reformed in June 2006 as the duo of Triple H and Shawn Michaels for the remainder of the year and again in August 2009 until March 2010, shortly before Michaels' retirement.

top 5 effective grunt unit

5 RGM-79 GM


 

The RGM-79 GM is a mass produced mobile suit based on the technology of the RX-78-2 Gundam. The basic frame was suited for a fairly high level of mobility, for the time, both on Earth and in space while at the same time proved easily adaptable to modifications that could be developed into mission specific GM models.
The armor of the GM is a titanium alloy, a sturdy metal that could be refined more quickly and easily then the Gundam's luna titanium alloy. Although titanium is less durable then luna titanium, it is also slightly lighter which reduces the GM's overall mass compared to the Gundam.
The GM was armed rather simply, with most of its weapons basically scaled down versions of that of the RX-78-2 Gundam . The GM was primarily armed with a beam spray gun, which was basically a downgrade in most aspects of the Gundam's powerful beam rifle. It did have the distinction still of being the first mass produced beam weapon ever made - something the Zeon forces had yet to do. The beam spray gun had a much worse range than the beam rifles used by other Federation MS but it could still destroy MS in one shot and was just as accurate and had a higher rate of fire and more ammo. The GMs also used 100mm and 90mm machine guns, the latter having less ammo capacity but a better armor penetration rate. Heavy weapons wise, GMs used remakes of the Gundam's 380mm Hyper Bazooka. For close quarters combat, the GM featured a single beam saber, although earlier models had the twin-saber backpacks of the Gundam. Lastly, the GM had a pair of 60mm vulcan guns mounted in its head, which gave pilots backup firepower that was highly effective against aircraft and ground vehicles but woefully inadequate against mobile suits. Early in production, the beam spray rifle had yet to be completely mass produced so that most GMs were equppied with machine guns.
By Operation Star One and Battle of Solomon, however, most the mobile suits used the beam weapon. It should also be noted that a small portion of the GMs stationed at the Federation General HQ in Jaburo also used the Gundam's beam rifle.(These may have been either spare or left-over hardware from the initial V-Project Gundam prototypes

4 jegan


As the successor of the RGM-79 GM series, the Jegan is the new mass produced mobile suit of the Earth Federation. The suit is lighter and more maneuverable than all the previous GM units, although it is not as well armed as the RGM-86R GM III. Nevertheless it performed very well and thus it was put into mass production.
As a mobile suit based on the GM series, the Jegan's design focuses more on being easy to use, easy to maintain, and possessing a high cost-effectiveness. Because of the size of the Earth Federation Forces it was imperative to possess a mobile suit that could be easily used by a wide range of pilots, and used a wide set of common mobile suit parts that could be quickly and cheaply replaced.
For weapons the Jegan was equipped with a beam saber stored in a waist recharge rack and a waist mounted three-tube hand grenade rack. It was also equipped with the optional armaments of a head-mounted vulcan gun pod, a forearm mounted shield that had two 2-tube small missile launchers, and a beam rifle or a bazooka.
As the Jegan remained in service over the years, it received periodic technological upgrades, producing a large number of variants.

 3 MS-14Fs Gelgoog Marine Commander Type

The Gelgoog Marine Commander Type is a minor upgraded model of the Gelgoog Marine. In addition to slightly higher performance, the Gelgoog Marine Commander Type also features head-mounted 40 mm vulcans and uses a MRB-110 beam rifle instead of machine gun. The knuckle shield used by Gelgoog Marine was replaced by a large shield similar to one used by the MS-14A Gelgoog.













 no 2 geara zulu



A Neo Zeon mass-production mobile suit produced at Anaheim Electronics' Granada factory, it is the successor to the earlier AMS-119 Geara Doga. Like the Geara Doga, and its Zaku predecessors, the Geara Zulu was not a "high performance" mobile suit. Meaning that although the Geara Zulu's specs gives it a superior performance to the Geara Doga, its technology does not "push the envelope" as the mobile suits of the First Neo Zeon War did. Like the Geara Doga, the Geara Zulu's design was based on using simple and conventional mobile suit technology. This made the Geara Zulu fairly easy and cheap to mass produce as well as simple to pilot since it does not have any difficult to use features such as a transformation system. In order to increase overall versatility the Sleeves have produced a wide variety of hand armaments that can be used by the Geara Zulu.
Generally the standard armaments the Geara Zulu mobile suits are equipped with include a beam rifle and beam tomahawk, although there is a wide range of weapons that the mobile suits can be equipped with depending on the mission profile. The Geara Zulu can have a weapon's mount placed on the back of its waist that is designed to carry several hand grenades and a beam tomahawk.
There are two basic models of the Geara Zulu, the normal type which features a shoulder shield on the right arm and a Royal Guard version that has modified shoulder and leg armor, a larger backpack possessing larger fuel tanks, and has more detailed markings. It is usually equipped with a beam rifle that has an underslung grenade launcher, and carries extra beam rifle magazines on the front skirt armor. Commander versions of these two models include a horn mounted on the units forehead.

no 1  GN-X


In AD 2308, the GN Drive Taus used were provided by Alejandro Corner who betrayed Celestial Being while parts needed to create them were secretly manufactured in separate civilian factories across the world before having them sent up to the Orbital Elevators for full assembly by their respective blocs. The GN-X's tech itself was evolved from beta testing GNX-509T Throne Varanus, which used mobile suit data from the Gundam Throne series; the overall tech was based on reversed engineered Celestial Being GN-tech The GN-X series is a high speed combat unit with great maneuverability. High speed vector thrusting is its only strength, without greater maneuverable speeds, their combat effectiveness would be considerately lesser. Being mass production units, these pseudo-Gundam units are actually less formidable compared to their Gundam counterparts (each unit is inferior to a 3rd Generation Celestial Being Gundam).
What they lack in special arms compliments, they make up for overwhelming numbers, as seen when a group of 10 GN-X units engaged in combat with Team Trinity to the point where Team Trinity were forced to retreat on three consecutive occasions. A unique quirk about the GN-X is also the cockpit: unlike other mobile suits of the era, the GN-X cockpit is located in the front torso, which may increase pilot survivability. The main reason for this was because the parts required to control the Tau Drive was too large and did not allow a cockpit in the chest. A total of 30 were made, 10 to each of the world powers (AEU, HRL, and the Union). The first generation GN-X was manufactured even after Celestial Being's defeat but only for a short time while series is the most quickly evolved and with technology and combat data based on the Thrones, the GN-X was further developed into the GNX-607T GN-XII; the GN-XII series was also short lived, thus mobile suit development/refinement created the GNX-609T GN-XIII as the mainstay mobile suit to replace most of the previous generation series by AD 2312. The X-shaped binders house particle condensers to up the speed and operating time of the GN-X.
An interesting note about the first generation GN-X is that they were designed to have been used with original GN Drives; this was done because the Corner Faction's plan of manufacturing original GN Drives that were exactly identical to the units made by Celestial Being. However, after their failure to manufacture the drives due to their inability to replicate to the special core it uses, they settled on an inferior version of their own without said core, which is known as the GN Drive Tau. Despite the change, the GN-X still retained a few engineering traits meant to be used with the original GN Drives.These were completely removed by the time the GN-XIII line was developed, however.
Unlike the Gundam Thrones used by the Trinities, the GN-Xs lack the ability to activate their GN-Drives on their own. Instead, they require a special start-up machine located at their bases in order to recharge and activate their Drives.
In the future generations of the GN-X series, it becomes the norm that each new generation is created by upgrading the existing units of the previous generation (example: GN-XIIIs are upgraded into IVs
