Derived from Harutoshi Fukui's original Mobile Suit Gundam UC novels, the prequel manga revolves around the events of the Sengo no Sensō (The Postwar War) short story, featured in the 11th volume. It follows the Neo Zeon remnants' act of capturing the Sinanju Stein mobile suit.

The day has come for the space colonies to launch a counterattack. Five young pilots are entrusted with high-tech mobile suits dubbed "Gundams," and are dispatched to Earth with the intention of conducting guerilla warfare against Oz and the Alliance puppets under their command. The battle to determine the fate of humanity has begun...

To prevent Vulkanus from falling into the wrong hands, the Gundam pilots embark on a mission to locate and destroy it.
