SOURCEBOOK

The sourcebook data, much of which was researched by Tom Bateman, presents many of the Robotech characters as they are depicted in the year 2006 in Chapters 3 through 6.



CHAPTER 0
Though he's not mentioned directly by name, some gamers may recognize Jack Archer and his 3-laser variant YF/VF-1R seen in ROBOTECH: BATTLECRY from TDK.

The YF-4 that Rick Hunter is piloting is based on the VF-X-4 mockup that is briefly seen in the last Macross Saga TV episode "To The Stars."

The three giant "mounds" are presented here for the first time within the setting of post-war New Macross City, bridging the Macross Saga with the Robotech Masters storyline, in which the mounds are depicted as being encrusted in earth by 2029. Their underlying structure is seen in 2015 as being based on the turnkey cylindrical design used by the Army of the Southern Cross for other buildings such as bar racks. There's an explanation for the change of state of the mounds over the years, but that will be covered in a future comic series.
