Participants:
Mizuki Onodera
Ken Torao
Dido Sybil
Setsuko Ohara
Willis Clades
Volya Alkaev
Kei Kugimiya

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.

Rules of Hospitality

Another component of the Discovery of Self is located on Anakaia: the race's Great Forge, prompting the Unity Group's return.  But the mountains will prove even more dangerous than Lady Xion has warned...

Canon: Knight the Burned Out (post-canon mission)
Characters: Sielje, any number of other participants

The mission The Flowers that Bloom in Space was completed successfully!  The mission log can be read here.

Participants:
Seta Albreich
Izuru Hitachi
Astara Kellin
Kei Kugimiya
Dido Sybil
Asagi Toshikazu

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.

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

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.

Flowers that Bloom in Space

Long-range scouting discovers what is likely a Protoculture asteroid base.  While potentially enlightening, energy readings detected there are cause for concern.  Especially when one matches what Team Doberman picked up while trying to scout the Wulgaru gate...

Setting: Space/asteroid base

Canon: Staring Into The
Characters: Roy Garnette, any number of other participants
Type: Spontaneous

Asagi Toshikazu

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.

The mission World in Black was a success. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Setsuko Ohara
Willis Clades
Elyssa Soleil
Selena Recital
Volya Alkaev

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.

My Future, Everyone's Future

Ancient Disorder

An artifact needed for Discovery of Self's reconstruction lies in an incredibly old Martian facility. In order to access it, we have no choice but to use services of the only man left alive who had firsthand contact with ancient technology of Mars...

Canon: Armored Core, Gundam AGE (double post canon event)
Characters: Leos Klein, Flit Asuno, any number of other participants

The canon Hell's Embrace True is now complete!

Participants:
Astara Kellin
Lenore Iblis
Kei Kugimiya
Roy Garnette
Izuru Hitachi
Seta Albreich

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.
