After a long, long voyage, the Macross is finally back on Earth - welcome! Finally a chance to resupply and rest in peace, free from assaults of Zentradi and other aliens.

The relatively large civilian population of the battleship faces a problem though. Simply put, they can't leave! Due to a large amount of red tape and paranoid officials muttering about military secrets, the civilians can't return to Earth and for now are forced to live in Macross City. And before you ask, no - we can't make them all members of Unity Group.

But even though no one can get out (at least not permanently), some people got in.


"As usual, the war-happy soldiers get all the praise while civilians are suffering. At this rate it'll turn out the big wigs started the alien war on purpose, and I won't be surprised!"

Meet Lynn Kaifun, a relatively famous wuxia actor and cousin of the Miss Macross context victor. Currently he's agitating a group of Macross City denizens and generally being loud and abrasive. For example, when he notices you...

"Hey! I know your kind, you're from Unity Group. How's being a glory hog in a super powerful robot treating you? I'm sure you never had to huddle in ruins, afraid, while soldiers waged their little wars over your head!"

"Welcome to the Shatterdome!"

All Unity Group members received an invitation to Hong Kong. The weather is foul, but Marshall Pentacost greets everyone in person on the helipad, right next to the colossal structure behind him. A structure that many of you know the purpose of already.

"You may have been wondering why you heard so little of the Pan-Pacific Defense Corps recently. That's because this is all that remains of it!" He gestures at the Jaeger dome behind him.

"The project is getting cancelled. It was deemed inefficient. In a few days, the Rangers will be no more. This is why we're pooling all our resources and making a final stand. But we are not alone. I know we have allies and, damn, that's what the name 'Unity Group' symbolizes - standing together. Let's take down at least ONE threat to humanity before the suits shut us down!"

Do you want to talk to the Marshall, or explore the dome? If you thought UG's budget cuts were bad, you saw nothing yet. This place is old and rusty, its large halls housing only a few Jaegers even though they have space for many more.

Speaking of Jaegers, their pilots are around too.

Will you interact with any of the teams? Or perhaps...

With an old friend whom you didn't see for months?

There is one more Jaeger. It was destroyed, but it has been rebuilt. Good as new, in front of you stands:

Gipsy Danger.

And a certain mr Beckett is not too far away, either.

Looks like two of the Shatterdome scientists, one more eccentric than the other, are arguing. Dare you ask them what is this about?

Gipsy Danger activation - one thread only please. Will be started by a certain PC.
