SRWUG@ Fleet Broadcasting System

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

All canons completed! SRWUG@ is now clear - congrats on finishing the game!

Notes:
-Primeval Force's avatar is destroyed due to a close encounter with the surface of the Sun. Primeval Force has disappeared from our universe, though it threatenes to return some time in the future.
-Portals have opened, leading back to other universes from which some of our canons came from. They will stay open for a few weeks. They're one way only, so if you want to use them, don't make the decision lightly!
-We received assistance from friends and allies. Many of them did not count as living... death was no obstacle for them.

Damages:
-Bismuth has sacrifices his life to defeat Primeval Force. One entity that was so obsessed with humans, in the end was destroyed thanks to a non-human robotic alien.
-White Chalice is almost completely destroyed, only the bridge remains. Fortunately thanks to Ichitaka's timely intervention, Captain Smith and Dan are still with us.
-Fleets that helped us fight the legion of Primeval Force copies sustained light to moderate damage. Their sacrifices will not be forgotten.
-Individual units' damages do not matter anymore.

The Universe Roars in Defiance

The final battle for the sake of humanity, the Earth Sphere, everything you hold dear.

Canon: SRWUG@ (Kairos Aspida) - FINALE
Characters: Any number of combatants. Players are allowed to bring in more than one character each. When responding to this post, point out how many characters you intend to send and who they are.
Type: Planned.
Setting: A gigantic battlefield IN SPAAAAACE.
Schedule: This mission will happen on Saturday February 22nd, 7 PM CST. If you would like to participate, please respond below and say how many characters you send, and who they are. I'm very sorry that this schedule is not good for everyone.

Note: This is the ultimate mission of the game. The big finale is here, folks.

The mission was a technical success, in that we achieved what we wanted to. It is however still a colossal mess. To say the least.

The mission log can be read here.

Notes:
-Kairos Aspida left Gucun as soon as they made sure we were going to fight them. Apparently they never intended to hurt anyone in the first place. Which doesn't matter because...
-Kairos Aspida is pretty much destroyed, with most of its leadership dead and almost all military units destroyed.
-Not content with using puppets, Primeval Force itself manifested as a nigh-indestructible avatar of destructive power. It was the one responsible for Kairos Aspida's destruction.
-The Primeval Force avatar relocated itself to space. To show it means business, it sent lesser copies of Primeval Force units to attack targets military and civilian around the world. A legion of such units is now protecting the avatar itself.
-The anti-Primeval Force barrier proved effective. Against Kairos Aspida, that is. It is not sure if it will be any good against the real thing.
-Although there is not a lot of them, there are some Kairos Aspida survivors. Surprisingly, Shinra is among them.

Damages:
-Nova was downed.
-Technica was critically damaged and ran out of juice.
-Imber was critically damaged as well.
-Laura was knocked unconscious. She was nicked by Primeval Force beams and needs time to recover.
-Everyone else took serious damage. Except Lily, for some reason.

All repairs will be finished in time for the finale. Will humanity survive? Do not miss it!

The Shield of Time's Last Stand

Just when it finally looked like peace may come to the Earth Sphere, Kairos Aspida forces our hand into a final confrontation. White Chalice vs Kairos Aspida - who will prevail?

NOTE: This is the penultimate mission of the game.

Canon: SRWUG@ (Kairos Aspida)
Characters: Up to 8 combatants
Type: Planned
Setting: Wide plains of central Asia
Schedule: This mission will happen on Saturday February 15th, 6 PM CST (one hour earlier than usual). If you would like to participate, please respond to this post.

Also see the post below for a possible powerup.

The mission was a disaster of catastrophic proportions and consequences. If you dare, the log can be read here.

Notes:
-A substantial part of Warsaw has been destroyed by rogue Kairos Aspida units. Casualties are many.
-What causes KA units (or anything utilizing Primeval Force) to go berserk is Primeval Force itself. Apparently it's a sentient and very malevolent entity that wants humans to fight each other and die.
-Rushbird was taken over by Primeval Force for a while. It got better when all the Primeval Force left its system. Be more careful what sort of energy you drain in the future, Ichitaka.
-Petar Vukoja, Kairos Aspida's leader, is dead. Kairos Aspida thinks it's our fault. Don't expect future encounters to be anything short of hostile.
-Fortunately, our KA mole (Hixar Fermi) fled the organisation before they could capture, torture and/or execute him. He brought something interesting - plans for the Choma units, sans the Primeval Force generator. While not very useful on their own, they allow us to reverse-engineer a method of containing/shaping Primeval Force to some extent, possibly creating an anti-Primeval Force barrier.

Damages:
-Turn A, Nevermore, Super Bismuth, Prometheus, Nova Messenger, Imber and Rushbird all took heavy damage during this mission. Regenerating ones, get to regenerating ASAP. Others need fixing, and a lot of it.

Blue Flame Shall Engulf the Earth

A group of Kairos Aspida machines went rogue, and torches Warsaw in a blind berserk-like rage! Expect complications as we're sent to stop them...

Canon: SRWUG@ (Kairos Aspida)
Characters: Any 8 combatants
Type: Semi-planned
Setting: Eastern European city
Schedule: This mission will take place on Wednesday January 29th, 7 PM CST. If you would like to participate, please respond below.

The mission Primeval Heart was a disaster from the start.

The mission log can be read here.

Important Notes:
- Biff Bannon and Henrika Abrahamsson are dead. It wasn't us!
- Our relations with Kairos Aspida got worse again.
- White Chalice was out of Dan's control for the duration of the mission. Many people were stuck in their rooms or worse places during that time. Nobody got hurt seriously, at least, except...
- Taking advantage of the situation, ALICE broke free and kidnapped Caulder! Her whereabouts are currently unknown.
- Something really wrong is going on with Primeval Force.

Damages:
Most units on the mission suffered some degree of armor damage. Nothing that won't be fixed in several days, though.

Primeval Heart

The Christmas party was a success. Relationships between White Chalice and Kairos Aspida became more peaceful. Maybe, just maybe, we could find a way of peaceful coexistence.

Then, just as we're about to leave Orb, shit hits the fan.

Canon: Super Robot Wars UG@ (Kairos Aspida)
Characters: up to 9 pilots
Type: Spontaneous.
Setting: Orb.
Schedule: This mission will take place on Thursday, December 26th, at 7 PM CST. If you would like to participate, respond below.

You thought it was a Jockey mission, but it was me, Cubey!

The mission "Clear Sky Thunder" was a failure, although our ideological mid-battle discussion with the enemy was more successful than the battle itself.

The mission log can be read here.

Notes:
-The Bastion of Insolence turned out not to be Kairos Aspida's flagship. Their actual flagship is a ridiculously large stealth carrier, Xiphos.
-Inessa Alkaev, one of Kairos Aspida generals, turned out to be Ayame Jin's (real name Anna Alkaev) sister. The latter is a bit traumatized about her being here.
-We received offers to abandon White Chalice and join Kairos Aspida. Will anyone agree to them is another thing altogether.
-Petar Vukoja turned out to be a closet Kamen Rider fanboy. Or at least, he was one in the past. Which is our future. It's complicated.

Damages:
All units which participated in this mission suffered varying but heavy levels of damage. Extensive repairs are required, and the engineering team won't be happy to hear this.

Clear Sky Thunder

The Kairos Aspida flagship is being repaired in a remote, abandoned dock. Ambush and destroy it!

The mission Different Faces of Warfare was weird, but technically a success.

The mission log can be read here.

Important Notes:
- The "distress call" from Mirage Corporation turned out to be a trap. Fortunately we managed to force the enemies into retreat.
- White Chalice successfully passed Biff Bannon's test... For a certain definition of success. Currently the whole ship is searched to make sure there are no Kairos Aspida surveillance devices around.
- The civilians from the shuttle are saved, and are willing to share some of the transported supplies as a reward.
- The AC that assaulted the Base was not a member of Raven's Ark and had belonged to the Crest Corporation, in violation of several codes of conduct signed between the Ark and the Corporations.
- Jack-O, an influential AC pilot, staged a coup on the Ark and took over, getting rid of the corrupt executives who allowed such dirty tricks to happen.

Damages:
- Most units on the mission suffered some degree of damage that should be repaired in a few days at most.
- Bernie's Geara Doga needs a new shield.
- Matthew's clothes need cleaning from the cleaning liquid after his fake suicide.

Different Faces of Warfare

The Mirage corporation offers a reward to White Chalice if only they send help to defend one of their bases. However, the close proximity to an Orb settlement makes things problematic when a previously unseen member of Kairos Aspida shows up and starts a sadistic spectacle... The battle becomes a test that only true heroes may pass!

Welcome Back To Kamogawa

Once again it's time to visit Kamogawa, this time on Lan's insistence to deliver important information. But once again, White Chalice's little vacation is interrupted. A devilish new opponent devises a malevolent spectacle, with the whole island as his audience! A test of the heroes' determination and morality begins!

Canon: Rinne no Lagrange, Super Robot Wars Unlimited Generation Alpha (Kairos Aspida)
Characters: Kyouno Madoka, Lan, Muginami, any 6 combatants

Alright then.  No doubt everyone's heard the message we received from a few days ago.  Maxene, Dan, and I discussed the issue and we've decided that this is a case we're just going to have to give our messenger the benefit of the doubt.

The Inspectors know we're in space, but they don't know that we know where they are.  At least that's what we're banking on.  As a result, we're going to go in with a minimal force.  I've sent a message to AEUG and the DC to see if they can lend a hand, but I'd rather we nott turn to a full-scale assault as a first resort.

Get in, find the Inspectors' base, kill or apprehend them, and destroy everything they intend to use on the Earth.  If you can't, get out.  If the message wasn't hyperbole, we're going to need every machine and pilot possible in the event everything goes to hell.

Good luck out there.

Door to the Beyond

An anonymous message is sent to the Chalice, alerting them to an overwhelming and imminent attack by the Inspectors that can only be stopped if it's not allowed to start in the first place.  With the stakes too high for the warning to be disregarded, the Chalice sets course for the hidden base, unaware of what will be waiting for us there...

Characters: Any eight combatants, plus backup.  And we will be needing backup.
Type: Planned.
Setting: A secret base hidden in the remains of Side 6.

A giant, floating ice fortress appears over Siberia - from here, the Overdevil begins its work of freezing the whole world!  It is time for the final confrontation with the ancient Overman. Goals: destroy it, and free Gainer and Cynthia from its grasp!

Canon: Overman King Gainer (CANON FINALE), Super Robot Wars UG@
Characters: Gainer Sanga, Cynthia Lane, Adette Kistler, any 5 pilots (CR with Gainer very welcome)
Type: Planned.
Setting: Overdevil's fortress.
Schedule: This mission will take place between Wednesday, March 20th, and Wednesday, March 27th. If you would like to participate, respond below with your preferred dates and times. And when you say "Wednesday", please clarify which one of the two you mean.

UPDATE: At this moment the most likely days are the 26th and the 27th. Weekend dates are unlikely, unless I get a word from Specs that he's available on those.

The mission Declarations was a military success, albeit also a failure diplomatically.

The complete mission log can be read here and here.

Important Notes:
- The identity of the aliens from before have been revealed to us.  Calling themselves the "Inspectors", they seem to have it out for races they perceive as a threat or potential threat to the "alliance", whatever that would be.
- The attack on the conference was successfully repelled, although at the cost of numerous lives and several battleships including the Federation's new Shirogane.  The White Chalice, whose pilots directly battled with the Inspectors, proved instrumental in the defensive action... but at the same time, the defeat of the Inspectors has convinced many of the governing bodies at the conference to not agree to any alliance and instead try to deal with the Inspectors on their own.
- Bian Zoldark is, appropriately enough, extremely pissed off at this revelation.  Still, a handful of groups such as the AEUG, several city-states in South America, and a few smaller groups have signed onto the alliance.  Organizations and governing bodies can also request membership as well.
- The machines the four Inspectors used were all immune to energy attacks used from long-range, and in fact healed by the energy.  After some consultation with Dr. Graiffe, it's been guessed that this technology was derived from the Laplace Wall.  Fortunately, this beam absorption power doesn't work on energy attacks used at point-blank range.
- Gigafloat's been wrecked.  No clue when it'll be able to be used for sending people into space once more.
- With the offscreen decimation of Silentium, we will never have to deal with their bullshit in this RP.

Damages:
- Graham's FLAG tore itself apart in the process of downing the Silberwind.  He's going to have to request another one from the AEUG and begin customizing anew.  He also overexerted himself from the excessive Gs, but he should be fine in another three or four days.
- Paragon's motorcycle's been trashed and its had one of its arms lopped off and the other impaled.  It'll take another four days for the machine itself to be repaired, a week for Steed.
- Desu Tsubomi lost an arm and its head, and also spent much of its energy reserves.  It'll need about five days to be repaired.
- Desu Itsuki suffered some light superficial damage but is otherwise fine.  A day to smooth out the dents, but it's still good to go.
- The Fu Xi's combat armor and additional armaments were completely spent and destroyed in the battle, and the actual machine was further smashed up and electrified to the point that nearly every system in it is fried.  By all rights it should probably be bricked, but the pride of Gucun's mechanics aren't going to let that happen.  It'll still need two and a half weeks to be fully repaired though.
- The Nu Wa's even worse off than that, smashed up and the better part of it melted completely to slag.  But again, Gucun determination, so three weeks for repairs.  Devon also broke her leg while continuing to fight on foot, and will need two weeks before she can walk again.
- Ranna's Warhawk has been slashed and bashed up, but is otherwise fairly functional.  Three days for repairs.
- Blue Frame took a few close calls from Durkin's massive hammer and chain, damaging its side.  It'll be fully operational in five days.
- Shin Getter suffered from some electrical surges in its body, and it'd probably be inadvisable for it to transformer on the fly for another day or two until things get checked out to make sure there's no lasting damage.

Alright then people.  It seems whatever bureaucrats were gumming up the works for this big Earth Sphere-wide conference finally caved.  Zoldark was also able to convince Gigafloat's operators to use the island for the event.  It's neutral ground, so nobody's stupid enough to start anything here.  At least that's what everyone's hoping for.

And appropriately enough, we've gotten invited too.  We're quite the hodge-podge as it is, though unfortunately Captain Smith is a bit too-



Ayame!  We can't go back there!  The Lobstermen will attack us again!



... The captain said it best himself just now.

That said, I'll act as our liaison there.  Just keep your heads on your shoulders.  The ship and our mechs are going to get the "weapon sealing" treatment and we'll be fined off our asses if there's evidence that so much as a single missile tube's used until the conference is over.  And I don't want anyone getting into fistfights because they have a girl's name or anything else juvenile like that either.
