As the Zentraedi launch their relentless assault on Macross Island, Captain Gloval makes a desperate decision; to make a hyperspace jump to outflank the alien fleet. However, something goes horribly wrong and the ship warps across the galaxy to an unknown planet... along with Macross Island.
And the planet is not uninhabited.
With no hope of returning home in their lifetimes, the crew of the ship and the people of Macross Island are in seemingly poor straits.

Chapters (4)
A...a MLP/Robotech crossover? Oh hell yeah you got my attention. Wonder what will happen with meeting a alien race that doesn't want to kill them?
I will DEFINITELY read this... as soon as I get time...
....The Nostalgic feels.... That is it. Marry Me!
Are you Jack McKinney by any chance?
This was just like reading the novelizations. Except no thinking caps.
Outside of a few spelling errors, the only thing I want to point out is the "Claudia Fokker, wife of Roy Fokker..." line. I recall her name was Claudia Grant, and the two never got married. But then maybe this is an alternate universe?
Can't wait to see where this goes!
No, I had to watch and rewatch some of the original episodes (which I fortunately have on DVD) in order to get the quotes right.
Also, I will try to correct that error in the future. Thanks for pointing it out.

Nothing wrong with having to rewatch it, unless you're like and at times want to strangle some of the characters.... ok only Rick and Lynn Kyle.
1605775
Yeah, I especially wanted to strangle Commander Leonard from the Robotech Masters saga... and, of couse, that senator that tells Gloval to take off.
1606624
Oh please don't get me started on the Masters Saga... One thing that bugs me to no end in all three... four, five? "Sagas" is the pacifist arguments the heroes try to do.
1606644
K sorry.
1606680
No, no don't be. I should be sorry for getting into a rant like that. Believe me I love the series, if I didn't I wouldn't have gone and gotten the entire series on DVD, the movie, and the first... six books.
1606698
Alright then, thanks for liking this story, I'll bring out another chapter soon, if events allow it.
About time somepony did a Robotech crossover. I've been waiting for one to appear for a LONG time.
But I have an idea for another such Robotech/Macross scenario: what if the ponies and other sentient life of Equestria were Zentradi-size? =3
Huh... what do you know, I was expecting the Macross (SDF-01) ending up in a parallel universe or something. Great chapter
1606644 *brohoof* I fully agree with you. Sometimes war isn't an option and while the Earth was being nuked by the aliens the heroes kept preaching for peace. Peace only works if you can be on equal ground with the aggressor.
That always ruined the series for me.
Well that was unexpected of Roy. LOL.
Hope he regains his cool and goes back and make contact.
1689055
Don't worry, I have plans
M0AR! o.o Cough erhm excuse me... well played. 5 or 6 errors with letters I could see. Pretty solid though. Surprised that Roy hadn't asked to land and that there was little commentary about the planet having civilization though Robotech established itself well in that skull squadron does pretty much whatever the hell they want. :P So I don't mind it that much. Would've been funny to hear that though. My only complaint would be not enough show references in speech, your speech needs more... well more.
1713803
I'll sure try
I'm just stoked that this means Roy won't die. ^_^... right?
1717711
I'm not revealing anything, but this story will give me the ability to change a few things... if I want to.
Haha no worries. x) Still, I haven't read any other crossovers, Halo Mass effect, the like haven't caught my eye, but I'm definitely wrapped up in your story. Good choice, can't wait. ^^
I think he is Russian in both Robotech and Macross. Good chapter, so next time First Contact?
Even Lisa sees how adorable Fluttershy is...
1772220
Yeah. I don't pick favorites in the show, I just note who does what and what their personality is.
Here's a thought: each of the ponies can befriend one of the Robotech characters. For some reason, I see the bridge bunnies - Sammie Porter, Vanessa Leeds, and Kim Young - befriending the Cutie Mark Crusaders - I can imagine the three trying to babysit them - only for the CMCs to cause them a whole mess of trouble just get their cutie marks!
Gloval is awesome, I'm firmly convinced that if he had been around during the Robotech Masters saga none of the stupid crap that happened in that would have happened. The General or whoever was in charge at that time was an absolute moron when it came to dealing with the Robotech Masters.
1775488
Lol I hesistated to call those three "the bridge bunnies" even though that was the fan name given to them. I must admit that wasn't an idea I had thought of, but I'll consider it.
1775488 I think that was Supreme Commander Leonard.
Althought not a goddess, as many of her subjects stubbornly continued to believe (of both her AND Celestia),
Say what say whaaaaat
Way too short, moar I say I'm enjoying this immensely!!!!!
Fuck yeah! Robotech is teh epic win.
what is robotech i thought this was gundam
2345771 it's similar to gundam... but the enemies are aliens, not earth.
silly Spike they're not Space-Ponies, they are hyoomans

I'm guessing you had to go back and see the series a couple of times over to remember the names and stuff
, or you know them by heart
because this anime is old, very good yet old
Don't worry, the enemy has many you can choose from. They're specifically after your ship and know where it is, so you can treat them like a walking armory kindly brought for your use.
From a species who is used to there being only one sapient lifeform on a planet, that makes sense. I wonder how they'll deal with there being many sapient species on that world. Besides, if you look at an official map of Equestria, you can see that their nation is extremely tiny.
Nothing in the show has ever implied that in the slightest.
You know, Luna, most humans would kill anything stupid enough to invade the sanctity of our minds. Though, this time it seemed to be an accident.
2345771 Robotech is the father of Gundam.

Nice idea, however I saw points where you needed to parse the post through a spell checker. One example is you have ehlphing instead of helping.
WOOHOO! ROBOTECH FTW! I'm a huge fan of the Macross Saga, and this is glorious.
Alright start the music!
Wonderful and Seamless!
I liek your use of failrue....(snicker). Gloval would not "liek" me because I'm a grammar Nazi!
Still, it's a great story you've got going here.
Do I need to watch the show to understand this?

I was thinking more along the lines of this:
Will you stop calling the U.N Spacy "Robotech forces". Just call them U.N forces or something. Oh and they often called the fighters by their design name aka Valkyrie. Besides that not to bad so far.
PS: you could just call the SDF-1 by it's name aka Macross
4033949
Ha if only capital ships in the Macross universe didn't explode violently when hit by a small missile cluster from a fighter
do you ever plan to try to continue this?
9524846
Yes. I'm finding it hard to stop procrastinating and to find time between that and college to work on this, though. And I find it easier to work on other stuff; Robotech has a bunch of novels/comics that I've never read as content, whereas I've only watched the three Robotech Wars and the Shadow Chronicles, as well as Love, Live, Alive. As a result, I get nervous about writing about it. In addition, I'm not really interested in Robotech at the moment. I'm sorry its taking a while.
If you want to make your own Robotech story based on mine, I won't get upset.
9525301
i see well im not really a writer but take all the time you need... i know that sometimes these things happen...
I looked up Robotech on the search bar on a whim, not expecting to find anything. But then I saw... a fan fiction with two of my favorite shows in it! Can this story get any better!
I'm happy to see this story again!
