Important Notes:
- The seemingly innocent ESUN transport that we'd passed by on the way to pick up the Great Forge was in fact trying to secretly smuggle stolen Ankaian materials to Earth.  Turns out that Fumerco is not as dead as we would've hoped, having simply shuffled around assets and changed names.
- This was all revealed to us by Lady Xion the Bulwark, who also destroyed the experimental joint-technology suit.  However, Xion felt that the only way to protect Ankaia was to completely shut it off from Earth, first setting an example by killing all the transport's staff.  She fortunately mellowed out between the efforts of the Unity Group, news that the ESUN and Ankaians would be strictly inspecting everything coming into or being taken from Ankaia, and Sielje's own words and efforts.
- With all transit between Earth and Ankaia now being even more closely scrutinized and the truth now out in the open, those that wish to exploit Ankaia will likely not have much success in that front even as the legal officers of the ESUN find ways to bring them to justice.
- Sielje's beasthide dress is not just for show.

Notes:
- As it turned out, the reason for the Great Black Void's return and the source of it power was a fragment of the Discovery! The ancient artifact is now recovered and in Unity Group's possession.
- We learned the truth of the Void's background. It was a vengeful entity created after a whole race of dark being was destroyed in the war against the Lady, and who blamed creatures of light for their deaths.
- Ultimately, the Great Black Void was destroyed, and it admitted its mistakes.
- Zankuro is back safe and sound, although he's artificially aged.

Notes:
-With the barriers between universes having grown exceptionally thin, the Beasts of Starmind could break through and unleash a full scale invasion - forget attacking only one town in Japan, many places around the globe were assaulted simultaneously!
-Stopping the invasion leader Paranticus would cause the rest of Beasts to stop moving, but the enemy turned out to be a powerful foe. The last resort chance of activating Metalis'a black box did nothing... but Hikari, Bahamut and others didn't give up and brought a miracle with their own hands instead.
-Unfortunately, a miracled turned out to be not enough... even with Paranticus dead, more of its kind revealed themselves. The invasion had many leaders, each just as powerful. Everything seemed lost, until...
-Until it turned out that the black box did in fact serve a function. It was a beacon, which activated brought in the group Bahamut Metalia used to be a part of - the Dinochrome Brigade, sworn enemies of Beasts of Starmind! With their arrival in large numbers and subsequent support, the day was saved!
-We have a lot of oversized friendly (and mostly non humanoid) sentient machines hanging around now. However, they will not stay on Earth for long...

Notes:
- The Asteroid base turned out to have been of Protoculture in design, seized by Kamjin and other Zentradi using it to try to reactivate the Wulgaru's gate.  They got help for that by the somehow still-alive Jiart, with both groups intending to try to use the gate for their own ends to either call more Zentradi in, or open a portal for more Wulgaru.
- Ultimately, either through their own fair share of ally killing or the efforts of the Unity Group, Kamjin's faction was killed to the man as was Jiart himself... though not before the portal was opened, enabling more Wulgaru to arrive.
- Fortunately though, the fleet led by Legates Lumes has turned out to be comparatively small, and more than that has apparently come in peace.  The battles with Earth and the Unity Group have given the race food for thought, and the looming threat of the revitalized Balmarians are a greater cause for concern.

Notes:
-The base where Beatrice Willson was being held was taken hostage by SCCF, who have given us an ultimatum to let her go or else it will be destroyed by their flagship, The Yellow King's Decree, and its Dakova-powered main cannon.
-We've engaged the SCCF forces, but the SCCF located Beatrice and managed to get her free during the fighting. In the end, she managed to get away.
-The cannon misfired, causing the Yellow King's Decree to be severely damaged and exposing Dakova. The creature apparently only wanted to be put out of its misery.
-In the end, the SCCF unit Golden Ebony (piloted by two pilots who turned out to be two personalities of one man), their flagship, and most of their forces were obliterated. Dakova perished as well, unable to live in Earth's normal atmosphere. Only Beatrice Willson escaped, but what can she do all by herself, no one can tell.
-The holding base's security force was wiped out or forced to retreat, but otherwise the facility is mostly fine. The mountain towering above it is significantly shorter, however.

Important Notes:
- Chimera attacked to take back its headquarters with all the power Edel Bernal could muster from the Cambio Protocol... which admittedly was little outside of her own forces on account of the losses sustained by its most active and prominent members.  An attempt to make the main defenders lose heart by thinking everyone else was already dead fortunately was dispelled by both common sense and the unexpected help of Alternate Toby and Denzel, along with Xine Espio.
- Asakim Dowin has finally met his end courtesy of Setsuko and the Nautilus Carver.  He was actually pretty happy about being legitimately killed though, since that was his ultimate goal.
- Edel Bernal showed up in battle as well with her powerful Lemures, revealing herself to be a power-hungry bitch all this time with no regard for even the other Cambio Protocol members who were all just under her thumb so she could keep them in check.  Unfortunately... someone else had been pulling her strings all along.
- This person was in fact "Jii" Edel Bernal, the original who had created the "Edel Bernal" we knew to cause instability and chaos in the world for no other reason than the fun of it..  Assuming the guise of Jii Babel and the Black Charisma on separate occasions, Jii revealed himself to us to ensure we wouldn't stop his entertainment in the future... and with a lot of dimensional hax at his disposal he came very close.  However, a heroic sacrifice by Willis, and then Setsuko using her own Sphere's power managed to not only stop a potential merging of dimensions, but keep Willis from being lost AND also bringing back all of Xine's presumed-lost comrades from La Gias.
- With all the truth about Edel exposed, the Cambio Protocol probably doesn't have much life left in it, if any at all.
- We lost our chance of just erasing Loni from existence.  Way to go, guys.

Notes:
-The attack on Black Charisma's battleship was a success. It is not in Unity Group's hands.
- Apart from a swarm of AI defenders, we faced Xine, Lowen and Shuran in battle. Thanks to Setsuko's words, Xine was persuaded to switch sides and left the battle, promising to return. Lowen and Shuran remained loyal to Chimera and died in the fight.
- The only other person present inside the battleship was old man Jii. He doesn't seem to know much, beyond that Edel Bernal went somewhere together with a man who's presumably Asakim.

Important notes:
- The art expo was derailed when Apogee 13 showed up with a squad of assassins, all for the purpose of trying to kill Jen.  Some quick thinking on her part got the fight moved to outside, but not before Apogee also shot her in the back in a rather dickish fashion.
- During the battle, some hired thugs Apogee had brought along had the bright idea to try to kill Jen's sister and mother, providing incentive enough for Jen to master the Nemain's superspeed movement. It was enough to kill the jerk and save her family!
- Buuuuuuuut also not enough to defeat Apogee, who only retreated after Sielje intervened and saved Jen's life.  To make matters worse, her superspeed movement also seems to not just accelerate her machine... but also the progression of the same disease that took her father's life.

Notes:
-The ancient vault which we went to investigate turned out to have been opened and tampered with in the past already. We also faced the ancient Disorder Units, acting as its guardians.
-Nine-Ball turned out to still exist as the final tomb of the guardian was one of its forms, Nine-ball SID.
-Nine-Ball revealed much: the failed Martian colonization effort was deliberate on its part in order to procure easily guided servants to act as protectors - the Vagans. All in order to guard the artifact present, and await the return of its creators.
-Nine-Ball's creators were ancient civilizations, the same ones that fought the Lady. This was told to us by a message left by the other person who managed to infiltrate the vault a long time ago - Haran Souzou, the creator of Meganoids and Banjou's deceased father.
-Leos Klein managed to interface with Nine-Ball SID. Having received a message of our intentions, Nine-Ball acknowledged the return and allowed the artifact to be retrieved. It has since shut down - most likely, for good.
-The artifact in question is an ancient computing device, the "brain" of the Discovery of Self. Though somewhat damaged, it is still operational. Leos is commended for help in its retrieval, but due to his actions in the past he has to return to the facility he's being kept at... though perhaps, people will view him a little less harshly now.
-Vagan children are annoying.

Notes:
- Carina used the Gatekeeper to launch an attack on the Gloster HQ. Thanks to a coordinated effort between Gloster and Unity Group, the attack was stopped. There was a lot of collateral damage, but no casualties.
- Lenore was rescued safe and sound. Freeing her from the Gatekeeper caused the gigantic machine to fall apart.
- As a backup plan, Carina tried to summon the Kijin Emperor, who turned out to be Seta - very much alive and very much still on our side.
- In the end Carina Gloster was killed, and her army of fake Craft was destroyed completely. It's safe to say that this particular threat is now taken care of.

Notes:
-The good news is that both the lunar city and the ESUN scouting party were unharmed. The bad news is that it was a trap by the new SCCF leader, Beatrice Willson, who wanted to make an example out of us as warning of what happens to people who oppose her organisation.
-Beatrice's unit the Prominence was equipped with technology SCCF managed to analyze and use in practice - including Dakova's mind control, which she utilized to control the reconnaissance pilots into attacking us against their will.
-The mind control powers were broken when Roy had a realization and activated Wagner's Crisis Mode, his own power cancelling Dakova's.
-The ex-Decepticon triple changers Apeface and Snapdragon were helping SCCF as mercenaries but we managed to slag them.
-The city and the recon team were both rescued and Beatrice was taken prisoner. She should know a lot so hopefully we will learn important SCCF- and Cambio Protocol-related information from her.

Notes:
-The cult of the Sleeper tried to summon it using mystical beacons - ones powered by human sacrifice. The cultist leader tried to persuade us that this is a small price to pay, and the Sleeper From Between the Stars will be controlled by him and used as a defender of humanity against all the other god-like threats that endanger Earth. We were not convinced.
-However in the end the Sleeper was summoned anyway, with the cult leader revealing his role as the Dreamer shortly before his demise - one who is necessary to be overcome for the Sleeper to awake.
-The Sleeper entered this plane of existence and immediately ordered people present to serve him. Unfortunately for it, it turned out human technology has progressed quite a lot since the last time the Sleeper was here, and compared to Unity Group units the creature turned out to be a giant pushover.
-The Sleeper surrendered and agreed not to demand sacrifices from humans anymore, in a passive aggressive way. We let it return to its home universe, and it shouldn't be bothering anyone from now on. It's almost comical, except for all the people brutally murdered by the cult.

Notes:
- Carina managed to activate a gigantic mech, the Gatekeeper, thanks to resources provided by Cambio Protocol. The Gatekeeper's appearance caused high damage to the city it attacked and casualties among inhabitants.
- Apparently, Carina's real target were Lenore and Kazan, which she needs to finish the Gatekeeper. She managed to kidnap the Kijin and teleport away with the remains of her forces.
- Efforts to locate Carina and Lenore are in progress, but so far yielded no results.
- On the bright side, destruction of the Gatekeeper's factory module means that no further fake Craft will be produced anymore.

Notes:
-SSR acted before Unity Group could get there, and proceeded to assault the Discovery. Having no outside help, their force consisted only of the Shirogane, the Handsome Aces and Ana.
-Help came from an unexpected direction as the inside team managed to break out and assisted SSR in fighting the Guardians and the Seekers - who turned out to be much weaker than before, though still very dangerous.
-Lee Linjun tried to fire the Tronium Cannon on the Discovery, but Inspector Jou persuaded him not to. The Cannon obliterated enemy reinforcements which came from the other side of the Shirogane instead.
-The Discovery is now safely under our control, and the Inspector has some very important things to tell us...

Notes:
-Gavin and his friends attacked the Discovery, managing to break in while SSR was guarding it. Fortunately Professor Dupond or any other civilians were not on location. SSR assisted us in fighting the Lady's minions so we could move into Discovery and stop Gavin himself.
-All contact with the group that went into the Discovery is lost. What transpired within is a mystery, known only for those who witnessed the events personally (at least, until/if we see them again):
-We faced off against Desta and Ilinka, and also Raniiya and Bryanne in the Grunbein. But the latter two backstabbed the former. It was their plan all along to get their hands on the seals, and they had no intention of letting Loni or friends use them.
-However the Seeker attacked the Grunbein, and during the struggle Ilinka stabbed the Grunbein, ripping off its power source (the seal) and mortally wounding Brye and Rani in the process. Desta and Ilinka proceeded to get out of there and try to reach Gavin, something they didn't succeed at without perishing first. In other words, we managed to kill them back.
-Seeing his friends' demise, Gavin fell into despair. He used the seals' power on his wish - not to change the world, but to bring Ilinka and Desta back. It happened, and with the seals broken, the Lady was inches away from crossing back to our world.
-The Lady was stopped by the Grunbein, which could still move despite the lack of power source, motivated only by the TK power of its pilots - and the psychodriver ghost of Commander Antov. The trio's power was unleashed, and it managed to prevent the Lady's entrance... or so it seems.
-The Grunbein and its pilots are gone. Gavin and his friends are nowhere to be seen either, but hoping for them not to appear in the future might be too optimistic...
-Loni did nothing wrong.

Notes:
-The town has been burned down by a group of religious fanatics, the Lost Seekers. It turns out they have a shared past with Daniel and their leader said Daniel was a spy working for them.
-To make matters even worse, a Beast of Starmind was detected on location - the first time away from Japan, it turned out to be a copy of Bahamut Metalia itself! It said Professor Matsuyama made it, and used Hikari's friend Katsuhiko as an unwilling interface.
-The above turned out to be lies. Daniel worked with the Lost Seekers but that was in the past, and he appeared as a reinforcement - on our side.
-Shoji Matsuyama uncovered a message from the past, revealing the true nature of the fake Beast Bahamut. His grandpa was not the one to create it or give it orders to conquer humanity, he in fact sealed it away at a cost of his own life - but saving thousands in the process.
-Katsuhiko was rescued thanks to everyone's efforts, and a timely intervention of Roy's Wagner - still without its cockpit block. Roy is indeed a robot, one whose AI is housed in Wagner itself.
-The old compound of the Lost Seekers may have some answers. Apparently one of their Wise Men, thought deceased, is still alive and restarts the crusade against the world.

Notes:
-The island where the Rider's tomb was located predictably came under attack by Stigma. Less predictably, it turns out Silon is somehow still alive, even though we're pretty sure he died the last time.
-Stigma used a ship-mounted electromagnetic cannon the wake up the Rider of War, Tver. His Order made him impossible to defeat in combat, which is a problem when the one he wants to fight is you.
-In the end Tver was defeated not in a fight, but by Fyra's scythe which, thrown up into the air, no longer counted as a part of engagement especially after she was beaten. Just because you are undefeated does not mean you cannot die! Silon managed to flee however.
-The island has been devastated but Metis employees managed to (save for a few security pilots) make it to safety in time. On Unity Group's side, Morte has suffered extensive damage.
-Flit's back and seems to have hitten a growth spurt.

Important Notes:
- Thanks to being quickly alerted, the Unity Group was able to attack a VIPER base shortly after it was set up. A good thing too, since the Forgemaster base could perform near-instantaneous repairs on their stock of mooks.
- Doomstar was also present, as was another Julia who attempted to fire a slew of nanomachine-equipped WMDs at cities, only to be stopped by the Unity Group and Doomstar herself. Turns out Doomstar is cool with a lot of decidedly uncool things, but she's still got standards about using weaponry on civilians.
- Following VIPER's defeat and Julia's death, Doomstar has entered Unity Group custody. God help us all.

Notes:
-Apollonius "Loni" Gavin was after his uncle, but as it turns out - the uncle never existed at all. It was an elaborate illusion that fooled everyone or maybe even reality itself. In actuality, the one who supported and led Loni from the start was the Lady herself. This is also why we never learnt the uncle's name or met him in person.
-Rani and Brye appeared again and helped us in the fight, but eventually it turned out that they decided to side with Loni. They have their own idea of how to use the seals' power, but regardless...
-The room where the ESUN secret council was supposed to be located at housed the last seal instead, and Loni secured it. That means with the Grunbein seal, he controls all three. He needs access to the Discovery to break them and free the Lady. Obviously, stopping him from doing so is the highest priority.
-The secret ESUN council responsible for Unity Group's funding turned out to be non-existent, just like Loni's uncle. Which begs the question where we got the funding from.
-Volya and Interitus were heavily wounded by the seal's guardian.

Notes:
-The artificial island of Erria came under attack by the people responsible for John Dotrice's abduction, in order to awaken Dakova and then capture it, weakened by its initial outburst. They have succeeded.
-The enemies turned out to be a group known as SCCF - the Special Capture/Containment Foundation. Their goal was to study, capture and utilize supernatural specimens around the world, but now they decided to use their findings to bring new order to the world: whether it wants to or not. Even more worryingly, they seemed to utilize some Chimera AI units.
-The SCCF leader Lilian Cavanagh was killed and their carrier lost a large section, but in the end we were unable to save John Dotrice.
-Roy turned out to be a very human-like robot, something which even he didn't know. However he too was severely damaged and his body was lost to the sea. All we could recover was the pilot-less Wagner...
-The island of Erria is destroyed and its survivors are not too well mentally.

Important Notes:
- In this non-canon adventure, the North Pole came under assault by none other than the Krampus, who'd allied with the Cambio Protocl in the hopes of sabotaging Christmas!  The way he figured, if people stopped being good through the holiday season, then they'd just be naughty all the time instead, giving him stuff to do and people to punish.  Plus, it could be another way for the Cambio Protocol to gain more power too.
- Fortunately, the Unity Group arrived in time to push back and stop the attack on Santa's Workshop, and we received further help from a robot Santa Claus as well while the real one was off delivering presents.
- In the end the Krampus was stopped, and was then forced at gunpoint to replace all the presents he destroyed so Christmas wouldn't be derailed.  A happy occasion for everyone; even Walt when he found a weapon as dark and crushing as his soul!

Notes:
- Lee Linjun was successfully rescued, and the Shirogane is back in the hands of SSR. The relationship between the two organizations became stronger on the surface, but some of the revelations that happened during the mission made it more uneasy.
- Brye and Rani turned out to be spies working for SSR, whose job was to look for dirt on UG. After this was revealed, it turned out they're not happy with the way both SSR and Unity Group do things - instead of returning to either organization they left to change the world on their own terms, taking the Grunbein with them.
- Lorenzo di Montegnacco was killed in the fight, and his custom Valsion was destroyed.
- Rani left her numerous pets in Peola's care. Someone should probably lend her a hand before she gets completely overwhelmed.
- Salwah took Phannuhel's robotic horse for her own Arma.

Important Notes:
- Without warning, Lord Ishin launched an attack on the ESUN's capital in Brussels, causing catastrophic casualties before Unit Group forces confronted him... and got to experience first-hand that he really was invincible.  Ynya intervened shortly thereafter, explaining that Ishin had kidnapped Kimhone and was using her as a conduit in Ankaia to gather in a tremendous amount of power.
- A portal generator let the fight be taken to Ankaia, where everyone was able to free Kimhone from the towering Artificial Beast that served to draw in power from all across the planet.  Ishin followed shortly thereafter, but with Kimhone freed his power was up for grabs and Sielje drew it into herself by calling upon the Power Within.  Turns out she wasn't a Burned Out!
- In spite of all this, her past allegiance to the late isolationist, Lord Moswar, compelled Sielje to call for all ties with Earth to be cut.  Her calls for a challenger were met by her other friends present though, who managed to eventually defeat Sielje much to even her own relief. As such, Ankaia's road to recovery will be a long and arduous one... but not one it will have to travel alone.  With luck, interactions between Ankaia and Earth will not lead to further tragedy.
- Sielje is fortunately fine, and not suffering from the debilitating side-effects of the Power WIthin since it was not actually her own "power" she was using up.
- Never break a woman's heart.  It might just cause her to tap into crazy time-controlling powers she should've lost.

Notes:
-Our visit to Swindle's hideout surprisingly did not end with an exchange of fire. Unfortunately it was interrupted by Beasts of the Starmind appearing again.
-The Beasts did not seem to have a leader at first, but it was a trick - their leader was Plexippus, a nanomachine cloud virus who took control of Bahamut Metalia and turned the giant tank against its own allies!
-Thanks to everyone's efforts and the power of friendship, Hikari proved why a connection between human and machine exists and broke Plexippus' hold on Metalia. The Beast was forced out and tried to use corpses of its own defeated minions for a new body, but it was obliterated and is gone for good.
-Plexippus turned out to know who Bahamut Metalia is, and provided ominous remarks about its nature, and how different our relationship could have been was it not for Metalia's lost memory...
-Swindle lost a lot of junk expensive merchandise due to all the fighting, but in the ends agreed to provide us with information we're looking for - the current location of Shirogane. For a price, of course. He doesn't know it yet, but soon will. Hopefully it's not a trick.
-The ex-Decepticon Scavengers were there too.

Important Notes:
- Our attempt to break in and kill The One Who Waits was impeded by The Old Guard, followers of the then-Ebon King who had been lying in wait to stop anyone attempting to lift the seal on TOWW to kill it.  Thanks to some surprise help from Graeme and Calvin's fellow Genoace pilots we were able to push ahead to fight the creature itself.
- When confronted, The One Who Waits fought back by summoning Lagardia's parents, The Ebon King and The Lady of Flame/Mother of Shadow, along with Lagardia herself when she fell to the monster.  We were able to free Lagardia fortunately, and at a critical moment her parents turned against The One Who Waits as well, allowing Calvin and Lagardia to strike down the monster for good.
- In his final moments, the Ebon King asked that all blame for Lagardia's actions be placed on him for his attempt of harnessing the power of The One Who Waits and subsequently setting into motion his civilization's collapse and Lagardia's actions ever since.  What this will do to smooth over Lagardia's lengthy list of crimes remains to be seen.
- Lagardia's parents have since faded away permanently, with their only remnant being the king's immense greatsword, Serenity.

Notes:
-Sapphire Eyes was the first to reach and partially uncover the ancient city in which the time machine rested. Fortunately, Westwood brought reinforcements of their own. Unfortunately, the Enclave decided both Sapphire Eyes AND Grace are too much of a threat to leave alive and have to be eliminated.
-During the three way battle, the cave housing the time machine was opened (with more dynamite). It is there that the final confrontation took place, as the time machine's power could be accessed only during the exact noon.
-Sapphire Eyes won her double duel with Grace and Westwood, but thanks to the former's bluff she was tricked, the time machine damaged and malfunctioning. Both it and Sapphire Eyes disappeared in a nexus of power, to parts (and times) unknown.
-The priceless ancient city took damage and so did our reputation with the Enclave. However with the time machine and Sapphire Eyes gone, Westwood no longer wants to hunt Grace down. No longer forced to stay with Unity Group either, she can truly do whatever she wants now.

- The attack on the SSR headquarters was successfully repelled thanks to coordinated effort between SSR and Unity Group. Loni and friends managed to flee.
- The seal that was in SSR's possession was absorbed by Grungust Alpha. Currently we don't know how to separate it from the machine.
- During the fight, Grungust Alpha and Huckebein Omega showed the previously unseen ability to temporarily combine into a powerful machine, Grubein.

Notes:
-The OSI headquarters came under attack by the Ebon Court - low on manpower, they hired two rogue Ravens (and a bunch of cannon fodder), and got assistance from the Chimera as well.
-The Ebon Court as it turns out wanted to gather the key artifacts to break the seal on an ancient monster, responsible for deaths of almost all from their civilization - not to free it, but to slay it for good. Having finally learnt of this motivation, members of Unity Group offered assistance. An offer that was grudgingly accepted...
-Only for Director Holstein and the OSI-held Acolyte Kurtis to reveal themselves - as minions of the very monster the Ebon Court tried to destroy. Having learnt of their exact plan as well, they no longer had anything to hide and decided to kill everyone present.
-Holstein and Kurtis were killed, but Avishai died fighting them. That leaves only two members of the Ebon Court alive - Graeme and their leader Lagardia. They both were escorted back to Unity Group.
-The attack on OSI headquarters caused damage and casualties among the organisation and the local defense force. Even though the Ebon Court's motivations may have been noble, their actions can't be easily forgiven.
-Calvin got his Genoace back, and a chance to one up OSI and stab Holstein in the head at the same time.
The Mission "Friday the 31st" was .... something. The Log can be read here.

Dido Sybil
Selena Recital & Elma

Notes:
- The Halloween Party was unexpectedly crashed by the most unexpected persons. However despite this it was a massive success, with the host thanking the Unity Group profusely for the extra publicity the Resort is going to get.
- The Party Crasher in question was the Ghost of Starscream. Apparently when Galvatron retook control of the Decepticons however briefly, he had vaporized Starscream during the coronation.
- That being said He and his fellow Ghost Seekers have been sent back to wherever they were meant to go. Starscream is apparently plotting to conquer the Cybertronian equivalent of Hell and plans on sending Megatron to Double Hell as revenge for the blasting. Somehow we all know how that will go.
- It seems that the combined shenanigans that occurred during the party was what drew him to the Resort. Remember kids, never fuck around with Ouija Boards or hold Seances in places where lots of people have either been buried or reputedly have died. Knowing is Half the Battle.
- Dido is never allowed to plan out fights against ghosts to prevent another 'Stay Puft Marshmallow Man' incident like what happened with the apple thing.

Mission The Cambio Protocol was a failure. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Selena Recital
Hikari Shimamura
Willis Clades
Hetepheres
Volya Alkaev
Lenore Iblis

Notes:
-It was a trap. There were no hostages taken and the whole city was set up as an ambush to lure both SSR and Unity Group in, and destroy their teams both at once.
-The culprit - the Cambio Protocol, a loose alliance of factions that seek new world order by overthrowing ESUN and destroying UG and SSR. In addition to Divine Crusader remnants, its members include the Chimera, VIPER, Carina and her fake Crafts, and Phannuhel after he went rogue.
-Rumors of Sixshot's death have been greatly exaggerated.
-Escape was possible thanks to sudden reinforcements by an unaffiliated party, mainly Striker Eureka as well as the alternate universe Glory Stars, followed by Shirogane opening an escape path with its Tronium Cannon. Unfortunately, the enemy turned their attention to the Shirogane, which was captured.
-All units present on the mission have taken heavy damage. This is especially true for SSR - with many units and the flagship lost and Lee Linjun's fate uncertain, our rival group is weaker than ever.
-The government of Malaysia did not issue any official statement regarding this event.
The mission A TOTAL KARMA COMPRESSOR SYSTEM CALLED "GARLAND" was a success! The log can be read here.

The canon Hellsinker is now complete! For real this time.

Participants:
Kagura
Hetepheres
Willis Clades
Kei Kugimiya
Mizuki Onodera

Notes:
-The underwater dome contained an ancient, reality-altering computer known as GARLAND. The giant sword was the key. Permission to access Garland was given even though we had no authorization. Perhaps kernels of the defeated PRAYERs making a brief (but friendly) reappearance had something to do with that...
-We broke the six rings that metaphysically bound GARLAND, and it was released. The computer deactivated, and with it - the threat of PRAYERs is gone forever.
-We have received "lost property", which turned out to be a cat. An ancient, talking cat. We also recovered pods with bodies of four dead children, who were used to power GARLAND. With the computer freed, they too are now finally at peace.
-Everything was weird and there are more questions raised than answered.
The mission Pattern Recognition was completed successfully!  The complete mission log can be read here.

Combatants:

Jen Douglas
Fyra
Grimlock and friends
Sielje

Important Notes:
- A devastating attack planned by VIPER was spoiled by the Unity Group getting a tip-off for it before it happened.  This tip-off came courtesy of Jen, who had gone undercover in an operation planned with Commander Huffman to get information... and also steal a crapton of VIPER's funding.
- We killed off three more of the Julia clones.  One still got away with one of VIPER's fancy combat subs.
- Jen got a pretty bad beatdown between Apogee 13 and the Julia piloting VIPER's powerful Prima Materia, but she is fortunately still okay.
The mission Enemy was a failure. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Roy Garnette
Lenore Iblis
Asagi Toshikazu
Willis Clades

Notes:
-Unknown assailants attacked the residential area where John Dotrice was located at. Despite him moving to a safe house, he has been abducted - as the attackers' leader demonstrated an ability to use wormholes to teleport.
-Roy's Wagner has taken really serious damage, right after being repaired. Due to location and the enemies' lack of concern for collateral damage, there were civilian casualties as well.
-Following Dotrice's abduction, a pre-recorded message prepared by him earlier was played in Wagner's cockpit. According to it, a powerful psychic entity known as Dakova is contained on Erria, and mentally affected all of its people. The conference was going to address the point of Dakova's containment, but something happening to Dotrice means the creature already may have made its move...
The mission Royal Rumble was a complete success! The log can be read here.

The canon Runaway Princess Bride is now complete!

Guest appearance by Ana Racik

Notes:
- Prince Haruun Harunn and company crashed Peola's wedding and challenged King Nelfess' decision, which led to an official trial by combat, with the royal siblings, Unity Group and Cennetig on one side, and the king, his royal guard, and the would-be groom Kliiment and his lackeys on the other side.
- The challenge was cut short as the Seeker, a huge robotic monster, showed up, clearly trying to destroy Grungust Alpha - or perhaps its pilots...
- During the fight, Huckebein Omega showed up on its own, without being piloted. This is not the first time such an incident happened.
- In the end, everyone present joined their forces to defeat the Seeker, except Kliiment and his men who fled like complete cowards. King Nelfess reached an understanding with his family, cancelled the wedding, and asks everyone for forgiveness for his actions and words. He also issued an official apology for ESUN and Unity Group, and offers to make amends.
The mission formerly known as "Count Down" (turns out that's what Aero named the last SRW Z mission too)/now officially What Lies Ahead was a success, opening up a whole bunch of revelations!  The complete log can be read here.

Important Notes:
- The Unity Group responded to another distress signal from an SSR member, this time Rand Travis who'd come under attack near a medical camp.  The attackers?  None other than alternate versions of Toby and Denzel, who blamed him and Setsuko for drawing them to this world.
- Setsuko was still able to safely disable the machines without harming either of them, and in the aftermath the man responsible for this came out once again: Asakim Dowin, still alive and still being an ass.  Lowen also showed up to help us defeat the asshole again... only to suddenly turn around and attack Setsuko instead revealing himself to be a massive misogynistic asshole.  And not just him, it turned out that Chimera'd been bad guys all along, and working with the Black Charisma.
- This revelation caused a strong reaction in Setsuko, awakening her Sphere and putting her in a trance as Asakim put it before he left, leaving Lowen, Shuran, and Xine to try to kill us.  Joining them were two old friends of Willis who had thrown in their lot with Chimera as well, nearly killing Toby and Denzel if not for Elys seemingly sacrificing herself.
- Fortunately, the quintet were driven off and Elys is... clearly able to somehow survive being crushed very thoroughly.  But Chimera has some sort of broadcast planned soon, and the jury's still out on what exactly happened to Setsuko.

The mission The Successor was a success. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Astara Kellin
Lenore Iblis
Kei Kugimiya
Asagi Toshikazu

"Ben"

Notes:
-The one coming under attack by the fake Crafts was Lenore - or rather, an SSR convoy transporting an artifact she was part of. The only SSR members who survived before we even got there were Lenore, the VF pilot Ben and MJP's Ange Kuroki.
-The attackers were sent by a woman named Carina. She knows Lenore, and revealed her to be a fake Kijin and Astara's clone. Apparently her plans are coming to fruition regardless, and all she needs is a "Key"...
-In the end, enemies were destroyed with Astara channeling Seta's power, and Lenore managing to activate the true power of her Phantom Guardian. The latter lost consciousness after her display of power, and was in danger of death via falling rubble - but Roy managed to save her in a display of extraordinary strength.
-Speaking of which, Roy's arm is busted.
The mission Speak No Lie was a success. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Sielje

Grace Wallach
Kagura
Elys Soleil

Notes:
- The huge Gargantua beast turned out to be a trap, laid out by a band of Ankaian knights from Ishin's faction, led by Lady Beldyn the Sword of Truth and Lord Merwyd the Arms Master. However, thanks to the assistance of Sielje's friends, the battle was won, and the monster, Beldyn and Merwyd were slain, while the remnants of their force surrendered.
- Unsurprisingly, Fumerco turned out to be a puppet of Lord Ishin the Fated all along, who killed the corporation's president when he was no longer useful, and then proclaimed himself the future king of Earth. Currently his whereabouts are unknown.
- In the aftermath of the fight, a portal-opening device was found in the Fumerco HQ.
- Gargantua caused some damage to one area of the South East Asian Sprawl, but luckily no civilian casualties thanks to a hasty evacuation and Unity Group's interference.
- Sielje has lots of emotional baggage. Even more than we thought, that is.

Important Notes:
- A previously-localized alien threat, known as the Beasts of the Starmind, decided to branch out and attack more than a single specific region of Japan.  It was up to the Unity Group to step in since the specialized defenders weren't able to intercept them in time
- Said defenders consisted of a mercenary group lead by Kagami Tachibana -the daughter of a businessman with most of the holdings in the area- and then also a giant sentient tank known as Bahamut Metallia, piloted by Kagami's classmate Hikaru Shimamura.
- Antics happened and the giant turtle leading the attack did not go down easy, inflicting a non-negligible amount of damage on the city.  Still, the Unity Group, Hikari, Bahamut, and Kagami all working together managed to minimize the damage.
The mission A Place of Forgetting, A Time of Remembering was completed successfuly... though with a bit of collateral.  The mission log can be read here.

Important Notes:
- Freddy Angel used the Casaba Howitzer to blow open the seal on a massive underground facility in Alaska, which had been used during the Pedantic Blue program to cast away its unwanted and unneeded subjects.  The only thing remaining from that time turned out to be Eva's mother Samantha as well as the humongous robot: the Storm Petrel.  Their goal was to strike back at those they felt they needed to in the name of vengeance for the Pedantic Blue Project.
- The Petrel used a very powerful, but also radioactive, fuel source to allow high-speed movement... such that if it'd been given a chance to escape the facility then severe ecological damage would've followed.  It came close to that when Freddy Angel sacrificed himself to transport the gigantic machine to the surface, but fortunately everyone was able to disable it in time.
- At the battle's end, Eva chose to have a physical reunion with her mother, allowing her to finally move on from this world after sustaining herself for nineteen years on pure willpower alone.  Though a very heartfelt moment, Eva now needs to be treated for radiation sickness.  The Storm Petrel's Nuclear salt-water exhaust is not a laughing matter, missy!
- With all of the rogue psychics dead and all its dirty secrets exposed to the proper authorities, the literal and figurative ghosts of the past have been laid to rest.  Pedantic Blue's research will be put to use the only acceptable way: serving as a benchmark to make sure nobody tries to do the same thing again.
The mission Conquest was a success. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Fyra

Daniel
Baron Archibald von Whiskers
Mizuki Onodera
Theo Perdurabo

Notes:
-Stigma found an ancient tomb in Egyptian desert and, unfortunately, managed to awaken the Rider within - the Rider of Conquest, Ett; and her Steed, Victory. Ett proved to be uncooperative and fought both Unity Group and Stigma.
-Despite that, Stigma forces supported her to the end. The Stigma leader Silon was present on site, and gave up his life to protect her from harm.
-Ett turned out to be a very difficult opponent with the ability of summoning an endless ghost army. However in the end, an outmatched Fyra did... something strange, to even out the odds. She vanquished Ett and Victory, an attack which resulted in a nuclear-like explosion. A patch of the desert is now irradiated, and we have many questions regarding what just happened.
-Installing systems similar to Smilodon's into other units turned out to be a success. Skald and Archibald should be able to pilot other machines Unity Group possesses. With only some difficulty.
The mission The Quick and the Dead was an unfortunate failure.  The bad guys got away with everything they wanted so yeah.  Mission log can be read here.

Combatants:

Jen Douglas (DIRTY ROTTEN TRAITOR)
Peola Nelfess and friends
Grace Wallach
Chris Yukine

Important Notes:
- While we were planning to attack Sapphire Eyes' headquarters, she struck first, attacking the city of Cumberland, MD instead.  Turns out this place was Grace's hometown, and it was all just a plan to draw her out.
- VIPER was also working with her, using the confusion to steal nuclear fuel and also try to recruit our members.  Everyone refused easily, except for Jen to turned traitor on us!  Onore Jen.
- Sapphire Eyes had some weird stuff going on, wanting to "become one" with Grace and revealed all this craziness on her end was also due to a time machine which Grace had become the "key" to.  After some weird stuff and time rewinding, Sapphire Eyes has gained the power too and used it to kill Westwood... though Grace subsequently rewound time so Westwood came back to life.
- Sapphire Eyes and the VIPER leaders all got away, all aside from the Julia lady who'd died previously.  Turns out she has tons of clones so even that's not much of a victory.
The mission The Road of Trials was a partial success. The log can be read here.

Participants:

Ken Torao
Raquel Manora

Notes:
- We managed to stop Loni and company, and rampaging monsters that appeared on the site, from destroying the Lei-Peshkov Psydyne Technologies HQ or massacring its workers, and from causing damage to the city. Their reason for trying to do so was the fact that this is the corporation that raised Ilinka as a super soldier, but also...
- It turned out that LPP Tech possessed an ancient stone tablet, which Loni described as one of the three Seals. He managed to steal the tablet and used it to summon a huge, powerful monster. The monster was defeated by Unity Group, but Loni, Desta and Ilinka fled the scene.
- Whoever has all three seals will obtain the power to change the world. Therefore, the fact that Loni has one of them is very much bad news.
The mission Do You Remember Love? was a success! The log can be read here.

The canons Transformers the Movie and SDF Macross are both complete!

The Autobots - including Optimus Prime

"Ben" - totally not Hayao Kakizaki
Lenore Iblis
Dido Sybil

Notes:
-During the great battle, the Macross and Unity Group's plan was to attack from the flank, making it for Unicron (who turned into a humanoid form in the meantime) first. SSR was assisting as well. Apparently their members include Lenore, the Kijin met as an enemy; and someone who is totally not Kakizaki with memory loss.
-After securing an entrance into Unicron, it turned out he is using converted Cybertronians as minions. Megatron was one of them - or rather, Galvatron. He had regained command of the Decepticons, as well as the Matrix of Leadership.
-The Matrix opened, its power reviving Optimus Prime. With his help we managed to defeat Galvatron and destroy Unicron from within.
-The Boddole Zer fleet, distracted by Unicron's destruction, was throw into chaos when a special Protoculture-inspired song was played at them. This managed the Earth defensive forces to push and gain an upper hand despite being much smaller in size.
-Britai's flagship shot a hole into the Boddole Zer which allowed Macross and the UG entrance. Quamjin/Kamjin the Ally Killer appeared, but with the help of Max and Milia he was fought off.
-In the end, Lord Bodolza was killed and his flagship destroyed from within by the Macross's force field bubble. With the death of their leader, the Zentradi folded away, as far from Earth Sphere as possible. Their return seems unlikely, as the most likely fleet split into a large number of much smaller forces.
-Despite casualties suffered by the defense force, morale is very high.
The mission RESHAPE ONESELF FOR ONCOMING ASPIRANTS was a success, though also not the finale thanks to player actions.  The mission log can be read here.

Combatants

Sielje

Important Notes:
- The return trip to the dome led us to another fight with the Rex Cavalier, but also with a new PRAYER called an Apostle.  Turns out that after being defeated last time, that's what Kagura got turned into.
- Thanks to the power of friendship, Kagura as able to exert her companionship and camaraderie in spite of her transformed state, making the Apostle pull its punches, and ultimately even protect others from the Cavalier's attacks and join in the beatdown and ultimate destruction of it.
- In the wake of the battle, the Apostle went unresponsive and has been brought back under tight security to try to see just how thorough the changes to Kagura have been.  The Dome's also curiously still proceeding with business as usual, and we will have to investigate it to determine what more there is to it.

Notes:
-For once, retrieval of one of Calvin's artifacts went off without incident. However once we were prepared to take off, Enlil appeared to challenge us, the Arabian Peninsula being home to the ancient city of Nippur and thus his domain.
-The Ebon Court appeared but helped us fight Enlil - once he was (as future events would show, only temporarily) defeated, Maloz offered to duel for the artifact's possession.
-The duel was interrupted by Enlil's reappearance and Lucine going berserk. The latter is something that may happen to all members of the Ebon Court, apparently. Unfortunately there was nothing to be done but kill her.
-Theo (re?)acquired the Cross of Sinners, a potent weapon to fight gods.
-In the end, Enlil was defeated by Alex as she and Enki used Nippur's waters to create a fusion bomb. Before his death, Enlil warned us that something is coming - lured by humanity's presence, it seeks its destruction...
-As it turned out, Alex did survive the explosion! Though she is in a severe condition right now and Enki is gone. Maloz didn't survive the encounter - critically wounded, he decided to be killed in a duel rather than let Lucine's state take over him as well.
-As for the OSI, well... (See Calvin post)

Asagi Toshikazu

Important Notes:
- The operation inside of Phobos to stop its collision course with Earth was initially impeded by Leos Klein, but the power of FRIENDSHIP managed to get through to him after a bit of a drubbing.  Unfortunately, it was then that the Nineball (with Hustler Two in tow) returned, revealing that even past its first "death", it had been manipulating Leos into doing exactly what it wanted.  The attempted moondrop on Earth?  Yeah, Nineball wanted that to correct a perceived flaw in the order of things on Earth.
- With everyone's help, Leos was able to destroy the Nineball once more.  Hopefully this is the last one.
- Leos Klein has been apprehended and is in military police custody.  The short-lived return of the Nineball and the implications of the extent it manipulated Leos has made authorities in the ESUN willing to consider more therapeutic forms of punish rather than proper imprisonment or execution.
- Leos's new AC, the Filial, has been put under lockdown as well, with its ultimate fate hinging on what the ESUN legal system decides to do with him.
- Mars is now minus one moon.  Well, ancient battlestation.

The mission SPIRIT==OVERLOAD was a failure. The log can be read here

Participants:
Kagura
Hetepheres
Walt Schmertz
Calvin Eldred Edwards
Roy Garnette

Notes:
-The dome turned out to house a familiar (for people who were in a Shaft before) environment, with a giant garden - and an enormous sword in the center. It was also defended by a swarm of drones and two PRAYERs.
-Once Quiet Minstrel and Glorious Symbol were defeated, the last guardian of the place - Rex Cavalier, came out. It turned out to be both the largest and most powerful of all PRAYERs encountered so far.
-During the fight we received several cryptic messages from either the PRAYERs or whomever created them. They were not receptive to any kind of response.
-In the end it turns out, it was all a trap. Kagura was lured in to be turned into a PRAYER. She decided to suicide herself on Rex Cavalier, going out in an explosion rather than allowing herself to be converted.
-We were forced to evacuate from the dome, so its mysteries still remain unexplored. And high chances are, the PRAYERs will return soon unless something is done with it.
The mission Where the Signs Lead was a success, despite massive complications! The log can be read here.

Notes:
-It turns out, Dr Wily's Second Numbers infiltrated the decomissioning plant to free the Light Numbers. This was to persuade them to join ranks with Wily, an offer they seemingly agreed to - though it turned out to be a ruse, as Light Numbers remained loyal to their own creator!
-The Nehushtan relic user Chris Yukine appeared again. After a BEFRIENDING (read: getting the crap punched out of her) by Hibiki, it turned out she also had a different, non-complete Relic which she was reluctant to use - Ichaival.
-Wily's true plan as it turned out was to launch Skull Satellites from his island fortress and blackmail ESUN into disbanding and making him the new leader, or else the satellites destroy Earth's surface. With help of Light Numbers and Chris, his plan was ultimately stopped.
-Fine, a mysterious woman wielding the Solomon's Cane AND Nehushtan appeared to declare Chris a failure and saying she has no more use of her. These words stung her deeply, causing Chris to flee to parts unknown... though the Second Division operatives have a strong suspicion where she might be going.
-Rock acquired Flash Man's Time Stopper, and the Unit-2 hoverboard. Also the Light Numbers' actions and dr Wily's nefarious plot opened eyes of the World Robot Union. The former are pardoned while the latter goes straight to jail!
The mission Love Is My Weapon was a success. The log can be read here.

The story of Best Face of Humanity is now concluded.

Participants:

Ren Ubuntu

Notes:
- A group of Kin, overwhelmed by hate, took a trip from the future to our times - without a Conduit to guide them, they were twisted into horrible,  mindless beasts. We managed to destroy them, however, thanks to some unexpected help...
- During the mission Ren appeared to aid Unity Group in the form of a glowing giant. See mission log for details on how and why that happened.
- Ren's time was limited, but before disappearing they gave us words of hope and encouragement, trusting that Unity Group's actions mean that the bad future from which the Kin originate won't happen. Also this happened.

Important Notes:
- Thanks to a sleeper agent, Leos was able to knock the security teams around the STAI Battleship off-guard and launch an attack backed by not just the Frighteners but also DC and NUNE remnants. Also Hustler Two (who had somehow survived our previous encounter with him) showed up, only to get blown up again.
- Despite everyone's best efforts, a protracted shell game courtesy of Leos let him secure what he'd been after; not the STAI Battleship as a whole, but rather a segment of the ship capable of interplanetary travel. He left with ominous words after killing what surviving forces he had left, fleeing with the segment away from Earth and into space. Turns out he didn't like them any more than we did; uniting them only to get rid of them all to try to make a better world. Whatever Leos's planning though, it can't be good.
- If it's any saving grace, we've recovered Leos's old AC; Pale Rider and finally killed off Remille and Boyle!
- Even though the STAI Battleship no longer has its interplanetary module and the defensive force suffered extensive casualties, most of the vessel is still there so somehow, ESUN considers this operation a success.
