They may be in god mode in some missions, but that isn't always the case. iirc, in the White Base version of the Garma mission I almost killed Char. I think I wore his health down until it was very low, and then got the little voice over as Char betrays Garma that indicated the mission was over. i.e. you can't kill him, but you can hurt him pretty badly and it amounts to the same thing as far as mission completion goes. And I vaguely remember a mission against Ramba Ral in the Gouf that had him taking damage when hit - just not very much. And then he quit shooting at other people, and killed me almost instantly. In any event, while the two I mentioned might not have been invulnerable, they were close enough to it that it nearly didn't matter. junior -- _______________________________________________ Search for businesses by name, location, or phone number. -Lycos Yellow Pages http://r.lycos.com/r/yp_emailfooter/http://yellowpages.lycos.com/default.asp?SRC=lycos10 -------------------------------------------------- The Gundam Mailing List MK-II [email protected] Archives: http://www.gundam.com/gml Help: Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this in the BODY: help list
