**AS NOT SEEN ON ROBOTECH TV**

-
This I'm sure will be the first of many posts that cover concepts, story lines and character development that were for the most part, exclusive to the Robotech Novels Universe (let's see if the acronym, "RNU" catches on!).

 With this first one you can say it's a combo of Novels and Comic.

 With Zor sending the future SDF-1 to Earth with last Protoculture Matrix, it left the Robotech Masters grip on their empire in question. Their logical course of action was to send their engineered police force, the Zentraedi in search of, quite literally, their salvation.

 The Supreme Commander of the Zentraedi Armada, Dolza entrusts his best field commander, Breetai, with the task to retrieve the fortress and the power source it holds.

 But are Dolza's actions out of loyalty?

 From Robotech: The Graphic Novel


Dolza seems to knows all too well what capturing Zor's fortress would mean to his position against his Masters.

 And then...there's Breetai's thoughts upon arriving to the "blue-white" world of Zor's Vision to reclaim the SDF-1;




**Breetai studied the fire-mission computer models. He gave a grudging nod of satisfaction.  

"All guns standing by for bombardment, Commander Breetai," a tech reported.  

"Good. Level everything in the path of the assault forces but be careful not to damage that battle fortress. I want to take it intact!" Once the Battlepods had established a beachhead, his plan could be implemented, and Zor's masterpiece would belong to the Zentraedi.  

Then let the Robotech Masters beware!,  Breetai thought.**

- Robotech Novel, Genesis 

And who should they be beware of ? Where do HIS loyalties lie?

 As the Macross Saga of the RNU unfolds, the race of alien giants not only have to face the enemy of Earth's inhabitants, but also the the enemy in the form of their own ambitions.

 But that's...another story for another day...

NOT SEEN ON ROBOTECH TV: ROLF EMERSON

When Carl gave the mission for Brian and Jim to take the Robotech story to the realm of science fiction literature, I'd like to think that there were moments where they ran into secondary characters and said..."We gotta expand on him/her! Maybe not the whole backstory, but enough to make them an essential piece to the Robotech narrative. Case in point; "Major General Emerson, Chief of Staff, Ministry of Terrestrial Defense" ...Army of the Southern Cross. In the RNU...this was the result of BLACKMAIL! Excerpt; Leonard tilted his big head to regard Emerson. "And on your end?" "I want my own rank reinstated." "Only if you agree to serve the Army of the Southern Cross." Emerson nodded, as if having anticipated the counterdemand. "But in return I'll expect to be granted absolute authority over Space Station Liberty." "Granted, Major General Emerson." That particular story though.....is for anoth

DOES MACROSS ISLAND EXIST IN REAL LIFE?

A name that will ALWAYS be synonymous with Robotech. In the Novels it has 3 incarnations, and even afterwards, it is a focal point for Zor's Vision. Macross. As we begin the Novels saga, it is the island where Zor's ship crash lands after it is sent by the scientist himself to Earth in order to fulfill its destiny. But how much do we know about Macross Island's actual location?  Well, not much; The animated series narrates; "...Macross Island in the South Pacific." You may not know it now little island...but BIG things are in your future! In Robotech: The Graphic Novel, we get a little more. That map is at almost a 90 degree viewing angle! When we get to the Novels, we are given something a little more specific, albeit brief, but it gives "At last the object slowed, obviously damaged but still capable of maneuvering. Its astonishing speed lessened to a mere glide—except that it had little in the way of lifting surfaces and was unthi
