Special Notes
Mobile Armor Mode
The Saviour can change between Mobile Armor and Mobile Suit modes. Mobile Armor mode allows for more speed maneuverability, with added bonuses to dodge. However, some weapons cannon be used in this mode, as some cannot be used in Mobile Suit mode. See the weapons descriptions above for details.
When transforming to mobile armor mode, the pilot will use one (1) action during the round he decides to transform. He remains in that mode until he uses another action to transform back to mobile suit mode.
Basic Training for Mobile Suit pilots

• Add one additional action/attack at levels three, nine and fifteen.
• +1 on initiative

• +1 to dodge
• No bonus to dodge in space.
• +1 to roll with a punch or fall with an impact, reducing damage by half.
• No leap dodge
