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.

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 Enemy was a failure. The log can be read here.

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 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 Speak No Lie was a success. The log can be read here.

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.

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 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:

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 Do You Remember Love? was a success! The log can be read here.

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

Participants:
Captain Bruno J. Gloval and the Macross bridge crew
The Autobots - including Optimus Prime
Selena Recital
Hetepheres
Willis Clades
"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 Gotterdammerung was a success! The log can be read here.

The canon Sacred 40 is now completed!

Participants:
Alexandra de Witt
Calvin Eldred Edwards
Roger Smith
Theodore Perdurabo
Eva Barton
Grace Wallach
Fyra
Mizuki Onodera

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)

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 Love Is My Weapon was a success. The log can be read here.

The story of Best Face of Humanity is now concluded.

Participants:
Alexandra de Witt
Eva Barton
Volya Alkaev
Kagura
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.

The mission Rebirth in Flames was a success. The log can be read here.

Participants:

Astara Kellin
Kei Kugimiya
Asagi Toshikazu
Volya Alkaev and Interitus

Third party enemies(?)
Lenore Iblis

Notes:
-During the visit of a wealthy businessman John Dotrice, Sakihama was attacked by Balmarian forces. Dotrice's bodyguard Roy Garnette assisted Unity Group during the fight.
-It turns out, the place of the last battle between Seta and Lady Grey was also the location of the phoenix Kijin Kazan's revival. Astara appeared again after a long time, and with her help we managed to seal Kazan back to weapon form.
-An unidentified Kijin appeared and battled Astara for Kazan. Following her, strange copies of Crafts used by Seta appeared - targetting both the newcomer and our forces.
-The unknown Kijin fled during the fight. Also it turns out Astara used Seta's weapons AND can invoke the power of Kijin Emperor Invicta. Also the Balmarians were interested in Sakihama Base. There are many questions, and so far little answers.
-Astara has joined the party against her will.

The mission Glimmer of Despair was a full success! The log can be read here.

The canon Gundam AGE is now complete - for real this time.

Notes:
- After the death of the Vagan supreme leader Fezarl Ezelcant and learning the truth about his goals (killing all X-Rounders), most of the Vagan forces surrendered, and the rest were quickly subdued. The Vagan invasion on Earth was defeated.
- Peace talks between ESUN and Vagans have started again, with the latter willing to accept various demands to make up for the war their nation started, and to hand over their war criminals to give them a fair trial. Looks like peace will become a reality this time.

The mission Second Battle of Autobot City was a pyrrhic victory - a partial one at best. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Optimus Prime
Flit Asuno

Hetepheres
Willis Clades
Kentaro Torao
Ashe
a cameo by Raquel Manora

Notes:
-Autobot City was taken by surprise. Decepticons used a transport shuttle to assault it unexpectedly, and Metroplex's transforming cog was sabotaged to prevent the giant Autobot from assisting.
-Thanks to Red Alert's paranoia preparation and our swift response, casualties were kept low. Still, many Autobots lost their lives this day...
-Megatron stole the Matrix of Leadership, sustaining critical injuries in the process. Unfortunately he still managed to get away, the Matrix now in Starscream's hands.
-Optimus Prime has fallen.

The mission Devotion was a failure. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Eva Barton
Asagi Toshikazu
Leos Klein
Alexandra de Witt
Hibiki Tachibana

Notes:
-In order to stop Freddy Angel, Edward Mcdowell asked for Unity Group's assistance, as well as deploying Eva in the restored green Tern, and hiring a Raven and some other mercenaries.
-It turns out Freddy was after the Casaba Howitzer - a unique nuclear explosive and yet another remain of Project Pedantic Blue. Even though we defeated and killed Maria Starling, Freddy unfortunately got away with the bomb.
-As we learnt from Edward, Freddy intends to use the Howitzer to free some kind of inhuman nightmare.
-After the failed operation, Eva decided to leave Edward and return to Unity Group. Something which he was against but ultimately powerless to stop. This caused a brief but brutal firefight with the remaining AC pilots. This too was something Edward did not like but had no power to prevent.
-Edward Mcdowell's future does not look too bright in general. Also the surrounding area took rather heavy damage during fighting, though it was at least evacuated in preparation for the attack.

The mission Ouroboros was, against all odds, a success! The log can be read here.

The canon Mega Man ZX Advent is now complete! The canon the Stain is likewise complete! The mod has been properly chastized for running a 5-hour double finale mission.

Participants:
Ashe
Walt Schmertz
Kei Kugimiya
Asagi Toshikazu
Neptune
Optimus Prime

Notes:
-Commander Huffman and the Waltspawn came to the conclusion that the black domes' reappearance was related to Ouroboros' activation, and thus one of them would appear inside it. The conclusion proved accurate.
-The domes were the final solution of the other universe, which decided to get rid of our universe by erasing it like a stubborn stain. Since the domes were all connected, blowing one of them up with a ridiculously powerful explosive (bought from a certain arms dealer) was enough to banish the other universe from ours once and for all.
-The four other Biometal Mega Men - Aeolus, Atlas, Tethis and Siarnaq, appeared again and fought us. Their intention was to defeat us, kill Master Albert and then see which one among them is the strongest. After the bomb's explosion, their fate is unknown but it's unlikely they are all dead...
-The Waltspawn proved her (its? his? their?) love for our universe - by trying to fuse with it, turning everything into one. Also apparently she found it as disgusting as the rest of her universe did, but this disgust was beautiful for her. Walt and Optimus tried for a peaceful solution, which seemed to partially work...
-Only for the Waltspawn to be mortally wounded by Master Albert. However in the end, the Waltspawn sacrificed her own life to help bring Master Albert down. With Master Albert killed, the Ouroboros couldn't sustain itself and self-destructed.
-Apparently Ashe is the only one whose DNA comes from Master Albert himself without any artificial alteration. In other words, he was her ancestor and only living relative. So much for a happy family meeting.
-The shuttle pilot scored two barely-controlled crash landings in one mission, both in the same shuttle.

The mission Dive Into The Truth was a mess. The mission log can be read here.

Important Notes:
-As it turns out, Master Albert kept dozens of Models W in his lair. Fuelled with data obtained from Prometheus and Pandora, they fused together into a huge flying fortress known as Ouroboros, which Albert plans to use to become the ultimate Mega Man.
- Ouroboros is aggressive, blasting anything that comes close and draining the life of any people its shadow falls over. An attack plan to stop it before it reaches any inhabited areas is currently being worked on.
- Apparently Prometheus and Pandora were an ordinary brother and sister before Albert turned them into Mega Men and forced them to work for him. Unfortunately we were unable to help them, or even recover their bodies after they were drained by Albert.
- Loni Gavin showed up and engaged UG in combat again. We managed to fight him to a standy until he was forced to retreat.

[Remember to check the important posts underneath this one.]

The mission Cold Boot was completed successfully.  The complete mission log can be read here.

Combatants:
Daniel
The "Horseman", aka Fyra
Sielje
Theo Perdurabo

Important notes:
- The excavation site was indeed attacked by mysterious individuals in ninja machines, most likely from the secretive group Stigma.  Fortunately, Unity Group pilots were on-hand to help stop them.
- During the battle, the horseman's coffin was blown open, revealing an inexplicably alive and intact individual who is presumably the "horseman" the tomb was made for.  She's a bit moe peculiar but assisted us not only against the Stigma pilots but also from a monstrous Shoggoth who had been chasing after a much smaller, cuter Shoggoth that seemed to recognize Theo.

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

Participants:
Peola Nelfess
Jen Douglas
Kentaro Torao
Roger Smith
Neptune
Grace Wallach

Notes:
-The NUNE stragglers attacked the city as a part of a deal with Phannuhel. It is unclear what he promised them, but in the end he was just using them.
-Speaking of which, all of Peola's suitors appeared in full entourage, working together in order to bring her to their side.
-Phannuhel and Kliiment took hostages. This was enough for Cennetig who broke off from this impromptu alliance on the spot and later returned to assist us against it.
-Phannuhel's actions were too much for Salwah and Monika as well, who turned against him. Ourania was the only loyal member of his harem, though she became traumatized after learning he only sees her as a replacable tool and tried to sacrifice her for a convenient opening in combat.
-In the end both Phannuhel and Kliiment managed to escape with their lives. Xun was killed by Ourania much earlier, to "prove" how treacherous and untrustworthy Earthlings are.

The mission A Diplomat in Jest was a success. The log can be read here

Participants:
Captain Bruno J. Gloval + Macross bridge crew
Selena Recital and Albhard Bailaran
Cobray Gordon
Hetepheres
Ataru Suruga
Calvin Eldred Edwards
Walt Schmertz

Notes:
-The advance part of the GDF fleet has been attacked by Balmarians and Zentradi simultaneously. The attack has been repelled and the journey towards the Wulgaru gate continues.
-The Balmarian fleet commander Ephesus Gozzo asked Earth to become allies/slaves of Balmar under unacceptable conditions. He also mentioned an enemy of Balmar who was on the run and hid on Earth. The enemy's identity remains unknown.
-Calico McCready is still alive. Cobray turned out to be his clone, a Balmarian soldier named Ayin Barshem. This explains why he could use the Wildschwein, as Calico himself was a clone of Major Ingram Plisken.
-Cobray is using the Werkbau now, which appeared out of nowhere as if to answer his calls. There seems to be a strange reaction that somehow occurs whenever he pilots it...
-Not all Zentradi are hostile towards us, as a Zentradi boarding party seemed to consist mostly of those of them who wanted to peacefully flee to Macross. As well as a commander who decided to kill them, but was stopped.
-Max Jenius has a Zentradi girlfriend. Somehow it happened.
-Albhard gave up his life to allow us to destroy Ephesus' Zehirut, more powerful than the one inside Meteor-3. This leaves Selena the sole survivor of her squad, not counting Elma.

The mission Arbitration was a success, though perhaps not as we expected it to be. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Willis Clades
Elyssa Soleil
Hetepheres
Peola Nelfess
Flit Asuno

Notes:
-Aidoneous Island's automated defense systems turned out to be not quite inactive, and even worse - treated us as hostile. The reason for this is unknown but an educated guess can be made...
-The present Crystal Chimaerae made a beeline for Willis, even though he did not use Strahlend at the time. Despite his worries, it turned out the Chimaera are not in fact powered by human hosts, but some other type of core.
-Willis escaped Chimaera-related death only thanks to an intervention of Aegis chief of operations Genoveta Christern Von Lange, her student Lucille Roland, as well as Ono-Sendai CEO Elyssa Soleil.
-During the battle, Meteor-3 activated. It turned out the true form of the artifact meteorite is that of a Balmarian probe - Septuagint, and its even more powerful humanoid combat form - Zehirut. The probe's mission was to judge the threat level of human civilizations, but then Balmarians are fighting us already so...
-SSR members Viletta Vadim, Rand Travis, Woolf Enneacle and (with reluctance) Amara Barton thank for cooperation. Lee Linjun also offers his own unique brand of thanks. See the log (or the NPC post) for details.
-Woolf's G-Exes has been almost completely destroyed. Willis' Strahlend is critically damaged - first sortie after months of not being used and this happens. Also his Gespenst was completely destroyed, assimilated by a Chimaera.

The mission From the Bottom of a Dark Abyss was a success - a very messy one. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Hibiki Tachibana
Tsubasa Kazanari
Kei Kugimiya
Asagi Toshikazu
Theodore Perdurabo
Calvin Eldred Edwards

Notes:
-The Durandal transport was attacked by a mysterious girl wearing Nehushtan - the Relic that was lost during the event when Kanade died. Moreover, she was armed with the Solomon's Cane, another Relic that allowed her to summon and command Noise!
-The Nehushtan Girl's objective was to capture Durandal but also Hibiki herself.
-Apollonius Gavin and his BrightSaber also appeared, his goal to take possession of Durandal.
-Our enemies were stopped - due to Tsubasa using her own Swan Song, and Hibiki briefly being able to activate and use Durandal itself. They ran away, without us being able to capture anyone.
-All units present on the mission suffered serious to critical damage. Tsubasa did not die from her song, but she is unconscious and in a critical condition.

The mission The Enemy is Another Big! was a partial success, not without complications. The log can be read here.

The canon The Big O's first season is now complete!

Peola Nelfess
Hibiki Tachibana

Notes:
-Commanding several Archetypes, Schwarzwald attacked Paradigm City using a mummy Megadeus. It turned out to be another Big in disguise - the Big Duo!
-The city's dam was also under attack by VIPER, a terrorist organisation whose commander offered us jobs. Not being idiots, everyone present refused.
-VIPER threatened to destroy the dam and flood the city, but their real target was actually the city's gold reserves. They managed to steal them and flee in a giant submarine carrier.
-Big Duo rejected its pilot and started to move on its own, intent on burning Paradigm down. It was destroyed after Roger discovered a new weapon hidden in Big O's mechanisms.
-Damage to Paradigm's infrastructure was significant, though much less than if we didn't do anything. Schwarzwald managed to survive and fled to parts unknown. If Hibiki's act of trying to reach out to him left an impression on him or not, remains to be seen.

The mission Impact Again was confusing and mysterious. Unfortunately, we failed at our main objective. The log can be read here.

The canon Hellsinker turned out not to be complete at all!

Participants:
Setsuko Ohara
Kagura
Kei Kugimiya
Willis Clades
Selena Recital + Albhard Bailaran
Ken Torao
Raquel Manora

Notes:
- The man responsible for the fake messages turned out to be a mysterious masked individual called Black Charisma. He also wants the universes to fuse into one. What exactly he means and how he wants to accomplish this, remains a mystery, because he fled with the use of a time-space anomaly.
- The woman who is helping Asakim Dowen is named Xine Espio. Her taste in piloting suits is questionable.
- Members of Unity Group present during the mission suffered a bizarre shared hallucination. Considering that it was triggered by Kagura's apparent "death", this might have something to do with her. But what, exactly, we're not sure.

The mission The Great Train Robbery was a success! The log can be read here.

Participants:
Grace Wallach
Daniel
Alex de Witt
Neptune
Ataru Suruga

Notes:
-The archeological site was attacked by a mercenary/assassin known only as Sapphire Eyes and her posse. She was after the ancient train, of course.
-During the fight, we received help from a cyborg mercenary known only as Daniel. Another mercenary, Westwood, appeared as well - apparently he was after Sapphire Eyes for a while now.
-The train crashed down on Grace's Daughtress but instead of killing her, her mobile suit and she herself somehow absorbed its mysterious abilities. Westwood, who works for Enclave, a think tank group, told Grace to stick around Unity Group, as Sapphire Eyes will target her now instead.
-The enemy used Desperados. Heat shovels are not to be underestimated.
-Unfortunately with the train wrecked, both the scientific community and the local tourism industry suffered an incurable loss today. However we managed to prevent any civilian deaths, somehow.

The mission Belly of the Whale was a disaster full success, the hero and his friends managed to escape their captors. The log can be read here.

Notes:
-Fort Alhambra came under attack by mysterious non-human assailants out of nowhere. Their efforts were focused on making sure Apollonius Gavin manages to get to his unit safely and escapes.
-Speaking of which, Loni and his friends did in fact manage to escape. The locks on their units' controls were broken in a mysterious way. "Heroic" willpower? Their current location is unknown.
-From our other prisoners, Aaron Anso Antema was unceremoniously killed by Desta, and Serak (Peola's mom) tried to escape but was captured.
-Commander-in-Chief Roland Antov was killed in action by Ilinka. Despite his demise, his unit somehow activated the TK Field, shielding Fort Alhambra from a huge energy blast fired by Loni.
-Cherno Alpha and Leos' Ethermaster suffered significant damage. Huckebein Omega needs a new cockpit block. On the other hand, ShotSaber and BrightSaber were heavily damaged as well... though the latter seems able to activate a super mode of sorts.
-Analaysis of wreckage of our new enemies is underway.
