Probably because the bulk of Blue Destiny's events on Earth happen throughout november and early december, and the Armored GM comes in late december.Gelgoog Jager wrote:Back on topic, I'm not convinced on why they decided to create the GM Dominance when the Armored GM from Zeonic Front might have been a more suitable (and already existant) alternative for such role. There are also the RGM-79L (and later the RGM-79LV), which supposedly has lesser armor precisely to have higher mobility.
Not to mention the Armored GM probably outperforms the BD-1 and Efreet Custom to some degree in terms of sheer thruster output. You don't want the star MS of your story outmatched by the mook suits.
