Zudah

The EMS-10 Zudah is a a prototype Mobile Suit initially developed by the Principality of Zeon before the One Year War. During the Principality of Zeon's race to develop a superior fighting machine, they developed four prototype mobile suits from different engineering companies: one of these was Zimmad Company's EMS-04 Zudah. It had a good powerplant, a well-rounded assortment of armaments, and unprecedented thrust and accleration. It also adopted a prototype engine known as the "Mercury" engine. The EMS-10 is later fitted with the improved "Saturn" engine which would later be used on the MS-09 Dom. However, the suit did have limits: if the engines were overexerted, the suit would overload and break apart. Zeonic Company used this information to outdo the Zudah with their well-known YMS-05 Zaku (later mass production version being the MS-05 Zaku I) and successfully marketed the Zaku series. This, however, was not the end of the story. The Zudah was resurrected under the model number EMS-10, with some minor improvements and cosmetic differences. Its left shoulder was refitted with a movable shield that could be swung to the back, and it was equipped with spikes for melee combat.

In most aspects, the Zudah is not really all that exceptional when compared to most other Mobile Suits, and especially when compared to other event suits. It has very weak armor in all categories, low HP, and its running speed is below average, however, the Zudah has an amazing boost speed and length, easily making it one of the fastest MS in the game, and its ability to use both the Zaku Bazooka and a Sturm Faust can make it fairly easy for a skilled player to harass enemy suits with the weapons' stun lock inducing capabilities. It also possesses the Strong Tackle skill, allowing the Zudah to do more damage with its ramming attacks than most other suits. Due to the Zudah's overall unimpressive abilities though, its use is very likely to be restricted to mostly low-cost or Haro rooms as other more powerful mobile suits are usually readily available.
