In a civil war, half of humanity is wiped out, and Zeon's army of Zaku mobile units is the decisive weapon. With the Federation's first Gundam out of action, Amuro miraculously stumbles on a second unit. Now, in control of a machine with unparalleled destructive power, will Amuro's actions save the colony's survivors — or destroy them?
