Zoids Battle Story - Side Story  ZAC 2100

The Secret of the Liger Zero's Birth


 The unknown secret story of the birth of the Republican Army's latest mainstay Zoid, the Liger Zero, is being revealed for the first time!!

In the final stages of the Western Continent War...

 This story dates back to the end of ZAC 2100. The Republican Army, having dealt a decisive blow to the Imperial Army with the efforts of the Ultra Saurus, charged into the enemy's Nixie Base on the Western Continent. They launched an all-out attack in order to annihilate the Imperial Zoids trying to flee back to the Dark Continent.

 The Republic's ace pilot, young Leomaster Ray Gregg also joined the attack. He rode his beloved machine, the Shield Liger DCS-J, deep into the base. Eventually, Ray discovered new enemy Zoids that were under development in one of the hangars.

New Imperial Zoids discovered!!

A Tyrannosaurus type and lion type. Ray Gregg discovered two new Zoids built by the Imperial Army.

Ray Gregg. You can get a Ray card in the first
Zoids Battle Card Game expansion pack.

The final battle of the Western Continent War. The
battle for Nixie Base ended in victory for the
Republic forces, but...


The mysterious tyranno Zoid awakens!!



The tyranno Zoid was launched, even though it was still incomplete, by a brave Imperial soldier. Its fighting strength was incredible.

 Seizing an enemy's new Zoid was worth more than defeating 100 enemies on the battlefield. That joy momentarily created an opening in Ray's heart. The Tyranno Zoid suddenly launched and tore through the DCS-J's throat.

"It can move!? In that condition!?"

 Ray muttered in shock as he desperately tried to escape from the cockpit. It was no wonder. Even though he'd let his guard down, the Leomaster was defeated by an incomplete machine that didn't even have armor.

 The Tyranno Zoid then started killing the other Republic Zoids one after another. It had such fearsome strength.

"We have to stop him!"

 Ray looked back at the other unfinished Zoid, the lion.



Capture of the lion Zoid successful!

Ray seized another incomplete machine, the lion Zoid. The battle between the two machines created by the Imperial Army had begun.


First Clash!! Zero Vs. Führer!!



The first battle between the Zero and the Berserk Führer. After this, the Zero was completed as a CAS-compatible machine by the Republican Army's development team, and the Berserk Führer was completed in its homeland, the Dark Continent.


 The moment Leomaster Ray grabbed the control stick, he realized how amazing this machine was.

"We can do this!"

 With incredible explosive power, Ray charged the Tyranno. The laser claws flashed. The Tyranno intercepted. With its charged particle cannon. The two machines narrowly dodged each other.

 For a moment they just stared at one another. Then, suddenly, the Tyranno jumped. It broke through the ceiling and disappeared into the transport machine that was waiting outside. This was the first battle between the lion-type Zoid "Liger Zero" and the Tyranno-type Zoid "Berserk Führer", who'd go on to become sworn enemies.

First Reveal!! This Is The Completely Wild Zero!!



Catch the mystery of metal lifeforms!!

 The wild form Zero is a lion-type Zoid that only lives on the Western Continent. It's the strongest wild form on the continent, so there are few of them, and they're extremely difficult to capture.

How do you capture a wild Zoid!?

 Wild Zoids are captured with a giant electromagnetic net. The more powerful the wild Zoid, the less likely it is to become tame with humans and the more violent it will be, so capture operations are life-threatening tasks. It's a much more dangerous mission than a clumsy battle!

The Zoid Core, which could be
said to be the main body of
a wild Zoid, is stored in
its back.

They literally have muscles
of steel. Even in this
raw state, they have more
power than the average
modified Zoid.
Combat Zoids are also called
in for capture operations.

 Right now, something strange is happening in the Imperial Army. A special unit called the Eisen Dragoon is attacking friendly forces. Their purpose is still a mystery, but the editorial department has discovered important information about the Eisen Dragoons. Look at the photo on the right. The mark on the Berserk Führer's thigh. This is the same mark seen on the Iron Kong PK. Are the Eisen Dragoons under Prozen's command!?

Dragoon. It can be used on
land and sea, and can be
separated and re-combined.

A Big Prediction of the Mysterious Eisen Dragoons' Mission!!


(Left) The Eisen Dragoons saved the Republic army.
(Right) They attacked friendly forces instead. There seems to be a deeper reason behind this.

 If the Eisen Dragoons are really acting under Prozen's orders, what is their purpose?

 The most likely theory is a rebellion plan. The theory is that they want to overthrow Emperor Rudolf and take over the Empire. However, starting a civil war during a war with the Republic is too risky of a gamble. So, what are Prozen's true intentions?

Super Fast Scoop: The Final Form of the Liger Zero "X" has been discovered!!


 Amazing information has come in. Zero's new weapon parts will be released this fall. Let's guess what they'll be capable of based on the latest design illustrations!


The idea from CoroCoro is finally being made into a kit!!


X Top Secret Information 1
It's rumored that the X will have an electric gimmick not present in the three
previous replacement parts... but the truth is still a mystery.


X Top Secret Information 2
X doesn't have just one form. It seems that there's a system in place that'll
allow users to choose which parts they want to install.


Stealth-type replacement parts?
Zero X is apparently a stealth-type form specialized for surprise attacks. In
that case, will the coloring be black?


Dr. T's Super Secret Information!

 X is also particular about its settings. It'll appear in a surprising way, so please look forward to the story.

The parts and settings of this Zero are amazing!
