With all of its missions completed, SRWU is now closing. Thank you to all players who decided to participate, and to our runners who assisted the mod team with running missions and events! The game wouldn't be the same without you guys.

New IC posts can still be written, and in fact there will be an NPC post up in a few days to provide in-character closure. Everyone has a chance to show what their characters are up to once their adventure with Unity Group and Project Unification drew to an end.

This marks a successful finish of the third (and last) SRW-based journal game, the second one with the mod team as it is now. As with the other two, this means final mission stats are now up on the 4koma community. The post is very long so I suggest reading it from the community page, but hopefully it will provide you with some interesting tidbits.

Finally, the closing messages from the mod team:

The mission The Hero's Story Never Ends will take place on Saturday August 27th, at 10 AM CDT.

The mission The Story's End was, despite everything, a massive success! The log can be read here.

The canons Super Robot Wars Alpha 3 and Super Robot Wars Unification are both complete! No further canons remain unfinished in the game... but it is not the end yet.

Notes:
-As the rest of Project Unification and allied forces created a defensive perimeter, the Discovery of Self and its escorts made it into the Lady-controlled realm. There the Discovery's real, humanoid form was revealed, and we fought against Loni Gavin. The stay in the realm didn't make any favors for his mental health, but he fled after being beaten, and the path to the Lady was open.
-The Lady tried to persuade everyone about the rightfulness of her way of doing things, but no one was convinced. Her and her minions' power was overwhelming but Inspector Jou managed to personally crack the tiny crystal that was created as a weapon to serve against her. Despite all doubts it was enough to strip the Lady off her power, and the Inspector survived the attempt too (thanks to Gwen).
-The Lady's loss was a cue for a new opponent to appear. Keisar Ephes, also known as the true Balmarian god Augustus, an ancient opponent of the Lady with the power to control the dead as his minions. He sought to control all life in galaxy, with what remains of Discovery being his key. Selena tried to stop him, but his powerful End of the Galaxy power seemingly killed her in return.
-Right after, Princess Armana and her Balmarian allies arrived to reinforce us, but came under attack by the Lady returning with minions. Neither the Lady nor Keisar Ephes were willing to cooperate, both enemies hellbent on destroying each other - and us!
-Selena then returned to the world of the living (courtesy of Elma using her electric whip as a defibrillator), carrying a message - a song from those who have fallen but still wished to protect the Earth. They spoke to us directly, with UG's fallen friends and allies offering words of encouragement, and Commander-in-Chief Roland Antov hijacking an enemy Grunbein with help of Rani and Brye.
-Seeing her minions fall and her strength wane, the Lady decided to hijack the BrightSaber, as Loni stumbled back upon the battlefield. Unfortunately for her, he was done being a puppet and forcibly threw her out of his unit, critically wounded her and fled. The Lady was then finished off by Walt Schmertz - for good.
-His command of the dead neutralized by the song, Keisar Ephes fought desperately but his unit was in the end destroyed. Ephes himself tried to flee, and kill Selena for good after she pursued him... only to be stopped by the spirits of Albhard, Captain Symphonia and the rest of Team Jelba. Selena then finished him. For good.
-The Lady has fallen and her sphere of influence is gone from Earth. The Discovery of Self was destroyed in the process of defeating her, but its components are still being examined because there was something within them that interested Keisar Ephes. We also regained access to the ruined Fort Alhambra base, though it won't be used by us because...
-With its mission over and marked as a success, Project Unification will remain for some time yet, just in case. Afterwards, it will be dismantled. Its members will either transfer back to their original units (for military people) or go on their own seperate ways (for the rest).

The mission Deception was technically a success - but one that brings a lot of bad news. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Willis Clades
Elyssa Soleil
Hetepheres
Mizuki Onodera
Optimus Prime

Notes:
-The Chimaera fog appeared in the Sakihama city - the populated part. Leigh Tahlia and the Licht appeared as well, having reunited with Willis and decided that she wants to help us now, regardless of who or what she is.
-Aegis reinforcements soon followed. Unfortunately they were here because of Leigh - as a presumed Chimaera Core, they assumed the fog was her fault and she needed to be killed. We fought Jen Douglas and Michael Verge, but after defeating them they were seemingly killed by a Chimaera ambush. This is when the Aegis CEO Silvius Christensen appeared, as well as Genoveta and Lucille. The trio was enraged by Jen and Michael's deaths. Only after both Silvius and Willis severely damaged each others' machines, they came to a conclusion that the whole trouble could've been avoided if only they were more willing to talk to each other instead of automatically assuming the worst.
-Jen turned out to be not quite dead, having been revived by her nanomachines in a similar fashion to Leigh before. Michael also returned, but as a mindless Chimaera.
-Elys is gone. The only way to save everyone present and the city from the Chimaera was for her to push beyond the Destruction Limit, suppressing the fog over the whole area and weakening the Chimaera, at the cost of her own life.
-Jen fled, the Durandal Chimaera in tow. Trying to chase after her finally revealed the true mastermind: Setsuna Zeeck, Caduceus CEO. Despite her Olympios facility having done a lot of good towards humanity, she admitted to being behind the Chimaera, both their original appearance and the recent return. She warned Project Unification not to interfere with her plans.
-Thanks to everyone's fast reaction, civilian casualties in the city were small. The Olympios floating facility is currently missing, its reappearance will most likely be bad news.

The mission Deception will happen on Saturday August 13th, at 9 AM CDT.

Participants:
Willis Clades
Elyssa Soleil
Hetepheres
A Steam character (presumably)

Open slots are open for more characters. See you there.

Deception

As civilians crowd Sakihama to help with imprinting the anti-Lady weapon, the Chimaera attack once again. But this time, an old friend from Willis' past decides to assist, determined not to let a tragedy happen ever again.

Canon: Iteration/Inheritance
Characters: Willis Clades, Elyssa Soleil, at least 2 other combatants
Type: Spontaneous
Setting: Sakihama city
Schedule: This mission will happen on Saturday August 13th at 9 AM CDT. If you'd like to participate, please respond below.

The mission Smoke Over Earth was a much-needed success. The log can be read here.

Participants:
Daniel
Gwen
Flit Asuno
Willis Clades
Elyssa Soleil
Leos Klein (and the strongerest robot)

Notes:
-With the Lost Seekers performing simultaneous attacks all over the globe, Project Unification was stretched thin to respond to them all. Our only chance was to stop their commander, who was leading the attacks from the (not-so) abandoned old Seeker compound.
-We faced off against the commander, Smoke Centurion Masaru, as well as Light Centurion Chloe. The former turned out to be a real bastard who thinks nothing of using even his own men as living bombs, and managed to critically damage the Steel Wanderer and seemingly kill Daniel...
-Only for Daniel to realize he has unlocked the true power of the Gun of God! The key to that was to kill enough unjust, which he did by fighting the Lost Seekers. With his newly attained Apostle Mode, Masaru was killed and Chloe was forced to flee. With her signal to retreat, the Lost Seekers all over the world withdrew as well.
-Daniel marked one of the retreating Seekers with a transmitter so we know where they're going to now. As soon as the location of their hideout is pinpointed, Project Unification will move out to put a stop to their crusade.
-The Lost Seekers actually did attack Sakihama just like Masaru told the mission participants, but unlike what he said, the attack was repelled without much difficulty thanks to all the security and Project Unification forces stationed there. It turns out villains sometimes lie or tell half-truths, who knew.
