================================================================================================
Overview:
    A variation of the MS-14 line, the Gelgoog Marine was designed specifically for the Zeon
    Marine Corps. In that case its power-to-weight ratio, mobility, and maneuverability were all
    greatly improved comparing to basic grunt design, rivalling evev the later modifications and
    descedants of Gelgoog line. However due to late introduction near the end of One-Year war
    Gelgoogs Marine hadn't succeeded in turning the tide of combat again to Zeon favor. After
    Side 3 surrendered, many MS-14F units followed survived Marine Corps officers to their rogue
    path, and as result somewhere at the beginning of 0083 small number of these machines in
    case of maintance difficulties was sold to Axis.
    During the 0085 UC at least one Gelgoog Marine participated in first contact clash - it is
    confirmed that famous Illia Pazom used MS-14F in her beheading strike against "Suppressor",
    completely wiping out entire bridge of "Victory II" star destroyer. Later during Scarif and
    Yavin battles one of the Invisible Knights, Hilde Nietzsche, also was engaging imperial
    forces in Gelgoog Marine, though it is unknown was it Illia's former mobile suit, transfered
    to new pilot, or another machine of the same pattern remaining in Axis service.

Capabilities:
    The main priority of Gelgoog Marine was brutal short-range space combat, so it was equipped
    with upgraded thruster backpack, combined with two propellant tanks for longer operational
    time. On each of its wrists MS-14F carried a single-barreled 50 mm autocannon - although
    this weapon was slightly inferior to 30 mm vulcan gun in firing rate and ammo capacity, more
    powerful shells made it reliable backup weapon against armored targets, such as warships or
    heavy imperial aircraft like Skipray blastboats. For close combat, unlike many One-Year war
    Gelgoog designs, MS-14F replaced beam naginata with two hip-mounted beam sabers - this
    decision allowed to keep more free space for handheld weapons mounts. Speaking of which -
    although Gelgoog Marine was able to use standard for "14th line" LGW-79 beam rifle, it was
    counted as secondary weapon, while main armament included MMP-80 90 mm machine gun with 7
    magasines and two sturm fausts. This weapon combination made MS-14F much more adapted to
    short-range combat and especially dangerous against enemy crew and personel. Finally
    standard Gelgoog shield was oftenly replaced with less effective for protection, but more
    useful in melee knuckle snield.

Deployment:
    This tactical readout was based on events of Star Wars x Gundam UC crossover
    "Звездные Войны: Железная Воля (Star Wars: the Iron Will)", written
    by Апостол Зирайя.
