Insert Robotech Theme.
Introduction:

Narrator:The Year was 1999 AD, and the Global War had been raging for over six years. Many thought it would be our final war.

But in the Macross Island the next step on our journey had arrived. A Super Dimensional Fortress dubbed the SDF-1.

The technology and the power source that made it was called…

ROBOTECH.

Choose your Era:

[]Saved By Science: It's the Launch Day of the SDF-1...everyone is on Macross Island to witness the take off. Hope for all Mankind.(The Macross Saga)

[]In My Heart: Ah...we are going to live happily ever after, sleeping well in the fact that the earth is safe...What do you mean we have to go and find some god forsaken rock out in the middle of nowhere. This better not bite us in the ass. (The Pioneer expodition AKA The Sentinals Saga)

[]Lonely Soldier Boy: Well Shit...the entire 21st mars division is dead, and there are very few survivors who made it through the hail of fire. Most if not all of our forces are dead and well, your in enemy territory. (The New Generation)

AN: I binged Watched Robotech and had this Idea in my head for months...Be nice about it, I'm new when it comes to its wider Expanded Universe.

Enjoy.

DUDE, YES.

I got into anime in the 4th grade, and among the first series i got into was Robotech.

So this is a blast out of the past. I've barely seen anyone use Robotech's continuity for a game; Macross' is the better known (esp because of Fire Bomber). My oldest brother also owns both games that were made for the PS2; Invasion was a sub-par game set during the New Generation saga, but it lovingly nailed the look and tone of a sidestory to the main cast's own plotlines, so anything even remotely like it is enough for me to give it a chance.

Plus, again, motherf'ing Cyclone Veritechs. It's powered armor consisting of a transforming motorcycle, why wouldn't i vote for that?!

Technically I have a few somethings to make it both a side story and somewhat like a series set at the same time, mostly Involving the Shadow Chronicles cast (Hey It wasn't that bad if you think about it, or just do something like this to deal with plot holes)

EDIT: Cyclones are awesome...I have seen them.

Ehhhhhhh...

The Shadow Chronicles OVA was...well, it was tolerable?

It really felt like an incomplete product, even accounting for what was only supposed to be the first installment in a new series. Like if they only did the bare minimum of lore research, never mind tie-in. Barely anything from the Sentinels saga, which should have been a bigger influence and narrative device considering the reinforcement fleet wasn't like Mars or Jupiter Divisions (ie from outlying colonies), but from the Expeditionary Fleet and the Sentinels Alliance themselves. And the Halcyons' betrayal? Hoo, boy, was that going to be a rippling clusterfuck in terms of consequences to the Alliance...

Or the ramifications of the Neutron-S warheads having been authorized for use on Earth! Those all should have been at least acknowledged in-universe, but it's entirely glossed over.

Redo TSC, if nothing else.

Thats the plan if you choose Marcus, give him a backstory, charecter development and fix the plot in a more make sense manner, I will fix TSC on principle as a fan.

Hey I was able to make Evangelion and Deus Ex work together, make Shinji into a badass naturally and still screw him over. I can make the Shadow Chronicles not suck (Even if it isn't that hard with the right writing.)

Also I have limited knowlege of the Sentinals Saga, can you help me with that.

If we do this, start from the beginning, and research to the cyclones fast
 
@Cyberphilosipher : I mean, i have all the Robotech novels as pdfs, but the Sentinels saga is one I'm rusty on...

It's a dedicated civ-building game in its own right: managing the Expeditionary Fleet between its brief escorting of early interplanetary colonization and transition to behind-enemy-lines opponent of the Masters' empire, the meeting of other alien species to form the Sentinels Alliance, a three-way war once the Regent and his half of the Invid show up... It's almost mind-boggling in scale.

Man, i didn't even like Marcus, and he had enough of a backstory! His counterpart/version in the last Sentinels book is similarly meh (hilariously, i think that's the one direct EU reference Shadow Chronicles actually made, hahaha).

I am only in the know about the origenal anime thats why.

Either way I'll make him a likable charecter...I think of it as a challange to my abilities, also, I don't know who his canon Family is I don't care (If you can tell me that would be great though) because I have a better story for Him if he is chosen!!

He will be likable because I see that canvas as a Challange!!

Because I make it a habit of mine making meh charecters likable as a challenge.
 
He's human!Marlene's little brother (and if she'd lived, he'd have been Scott's brother-in-law, which is why he takes out so much on Scott and Marlene II.)

Thank you but I knew that...also I managed to write a bit about his mom at least in my notes, because the Sentinals books didn't have it.

Also I kinda feel for him in the Scott x Marline II, In my mind at least before the last episode, SHE WAS wearing his dead sister's FACE, anyone in his position would be a little pissed about that. Plus the whole Pioneer Expodition kinda shaped his outlook on alien life (He was raised mostly by his gradfather, who is also a Possible PC, and shares a bit of his outlook on alien life as a guy who saw the rain of death)

If there was one thing that all could enjoy it was the fact people could enjoy the SDF-1. Newly referbished, new guns and a new crew all seems right for the wayword race known as Humanity.
