Description

Today was like any other day. The birds were singing, the sky was blue. Then came tomorrow...

Only one man can save the GTVA from suddenly appearing Knossoses, seemingly omnipotent mission designers, washed up game designers and aliens riding on ancient Terran aircraft. And that man is... 18th century Spanish historian Fray Iñigo Abbad y Lasierra! Or Alpha 1. Whoever's available.

Notes

This Campaign is the sequel to Just Another Day I: SUPER SPECIAL EDITION and Just Another Day II:ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

FREDder's Notes

JAD3 was a headache, but a fun headache. With the exception of the first mission, every mission had a complete redoing. That completely trashed every part of the story I had first wrote down. But alas, I somehow recovered.

Some notes about the missions (mild spoilers)

  • Mission 1: I was actually going to use the Shivans on a Plane here, which is why SLJ was there. But then I swapped it out for a Sath.
  • Mission 2: Finally a use for the Helios and Myrmidon! Unfortunately this is a mission where you can't use the Myrmidon.
  • Mission 3: This was going to be the Stealth Mission with similar jokes as Mission 5. Instead it went somewhere else.
  • Mission 4: This mission was done entirely for the Giant Robots. And the intro/promo/whatever. Gendo-Basudan is my favorite CommAni I did.
  • Mission 5: Up until the last few hours of finishing the whole campaign, the guest star was Admiral Haberdashery, but since the D&D setting kinda put him way out of place. Instead you got Monty Python.
  • Mission 6: The Shivans on a Plane was going to have a grand entrance, a ingame cutscene and fanfare and everything. But their role got cut (again) and they had 5 seconds of screen time at the very end.
