The xvm-gtc Gurdolin is the mobile armor from two episodes of Three Generation Arc of Mobile Suit Gundam AGE anime series. The mobile armor is piloted by Godom Tyneham.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

The xvm-gtc Gurdolin is a mobile armor that appears to be designed for a type of highly aggressive frontal assaults during large scale operations.

Its primary weapon is the beam scraper, the green cone shaped device on the front of the mobile armor. The beam scraper projects a cone of beam energy that is spun, creating a beam drill that has high offensive strength and can completely obliterate a target mobile suit or wear down an enemy's beam sabers. The drill can be fired as a projectile or can remain attached to the Gurdolin to serve as a melee weapon.

Although the beam scraper is the Gurdolin's only weapon it is not defenseless without it. It possesses a pair of mobile suit arms that are larger than standard and have the strength to completely rip opposing mobile suits in half, or crush them with pure brute force.

Additionally it has an electromagnetic armor that can survive several hits from a Clanche Custom's beam cannon.

However, outside of those strengths it has a number of weaknesses. For instance although it has fairly good acceleration, the Gurdolin's maneuverability is relatively poor. It also has a limited set of movement patterns, making it somewhat predictable after some observation. Finally, its beam scraper cannot be used in quick succession, giving enemies an opportunity of attack after it's been fired.

History

The one known Gurdolin was piloted by Godom Tyneham during the Federation's attack on La Gramis. Though Godom desired to battle the Gundam above all else, his opponent ended up being Seric Abis in his RGE-G2100C Clanche Custom. With his skills, Seric was able to quickly determine the Gurdolin's strengths and weaknesses, learning the mobile armor's (and its pilot's) patterns. With those patterns known, Seric was able to quickly destroy the Gurdolin's beam scraper and cause serious damage to the mobile armor and the pilot, however he underestimated the tenacity of both, which caught him off-guard and allowed the Gurdolin to catch the Clanche. The Gurdolin would tear the Clanche Custom in half right as the Federation mobile suit delivered a killing blow to the Gurdolin.
