Will the WDF recover from the blow?
  5. Solitude

    6. Description: On the planet Quagmire, women are being murdered in such a way as to indicate the killer's real target is the Dirty Pair.

So much for the original saga. But you have to expect that with a few hundred years to kill, someone is going to have some kids. Well, those kids grew up and now there is Undocumented Features: Future Imperfect:

  1. The Tech File
  2. Phoenix

    3. Description: Still hurt by the loss of his wife, Deedlit, ReRob tries out flying with the Eight-Balls, but makes a bad call and leaves the group. Still... he does come up with a plan to quickly end the current military standoff and proposes it to Gryphon.

Transformers thought dead return and herald the coming of something every Transformer on Cybertron fears more than anything in the universe. Unicron. May Primus protect us!
  8. Justice and Mercy

The UF saga has also inspired other authors to contribute to the universe. We, the original authors, enjoy these tales. All that we ask is that the authors ask before using the characters since most are real people and we don't want to have our friends get ticked with us...

PCHammer has contributed an ongoing tale, Hammer Time, to the universe. This story meshes well with the saga as presented above and shows some of the different aspects to the UF universe. The saga so far:

  1. Hammer Time, part 1

    2. Description: Martin Rose certainly wasn't prepared for the changes in his life when he entered that VERY large spaceship that had, rather permanently, ended his employment with Genom. Change they did, however, and hey, Wolfgang Amadeus Fahrvergnugen gave him an offer he couldn't refuse. Sooo.... IT'S HAMMER TIME!
    He meets lovely lady Noriko (Gunbuster), becomes a programmer for the WDF, and becomes the joker among the crew. Many years later, a war on Cybertron changes him far beyond anyone could have predicted.
  2. Hammer Time, part 2

    3. Description: Adjusting to the difficulties and strengths of the change done to him on Cybertron, Martin Rose tries to get on with a normal life. (PCHAMMER?!? NORMAL?! Yaright!) Noriko finds the change difficult to accept and leaves because of a a re-assignment. Alone now, Martion meets Eiko (A-Ko), someone who is also different in one similar way to Martin, and start going out together. Tragedy strikes the WDF, however, and both Eiko and Martin return to Utopia Planitia to decide on what to do next.
  3. Hammer Time, part 3

    4. Description: The two loves in Martin's life, Eiko and Noriko, stare daggers at each other over their mutual affections for PCHammer. While this goes on, two more WDF friends, Chris and Katie, arrive with their own considerable troubles. Eventually, the group decides to continue the WDF's work in small ways while Chris and Katie go to Meizuri for information about the scattered WDF. (see: The Universe according to Chris: Interlude-Visit to a Busy Planet) PCHammer and the rest go to help a planet which is having pirate problems.
    A simple case, but not to Martin's perceptive eyes.
  4. Days of Thunder: No Offense Taken

    5. Description: After helping the planet Funkotron from being a victim of a Genom 'hostike takeover', the newly named Thunder Force get ready to do an awesome concert to celebrate. Unfortunately, while Chris and Temper decide on what to do for their future, an assassin stalks the band.. but PCHammer is ready with a plan of his own.
  5. Days of Thunder: A Time to be Born, A Time to Die

    6. Description: Ninety years have passed since the break-up of the WDF, and the Thunder Force came into being under the leadership of Martin 'PCHammer' Rose. Tragedy strikes the Thunder Force and Martin is heartbroken over the loss. However, something unusual happens which may tear at his heart even more as the result causes him to disband Thunder Force.

We're very happy that one of the two authors who's fanfic originally inspired the UF crew has contributed a story to the universe. And did an extremely good job of it too. The author is Larry Mann (the other author is Ryan Matthews btw), and his story is:

  1. Soulsearch

    2. Description: Yuri had come to Earth to take some time off since her partner had finally found out the truth about Gryphon's frame-up. (Finally!) Larry 'R-Type' Mann, who by chance had met Yuri at the airport, saw a chance for confession to one he had indirectly wronged. When the hotel that Yuri was staying in becomes waterlogged, R-Type invites Yuri to his home. Both may find a release for their separate griefs together.
  2. Resolutions

    3. Description: New Year's day on the planet Niogi brings joy to everyone, except Kei. With a strung-out heart and guilty feelings over what she had done for the past 90 years chasing Gryphon, her falsely accused love, she tries to drink her sorrows away. Yuri, with the peace and confidence she gained from her stay with R-Type, comes around to comfort and support her partner in Ker's time of need.

Joining the growing cabal of UF authors is Chris Meadows, well known for his work with Robotech fanfic, such as The Misfold and the Robotech-Rifts crossover, RoboRifts. His tale is part of the continuity and it is:

  1. The Universe According To Chris

    2. Description: Twas a slow day for Chris and his two brothers as they got served by a friend at the local McDonalds, when forces unknown whisked them away.

    4.

As Chris finds out before meeting Yuri, it's open season for WDF personnel. Especially ones of hihg ranlk... like himself.
  4. The Universe According To Chris, Visit to an Empty Planet

Joining the cabal of Eyrie Productions authors is Pearson Mui with a story that took quite a long time to write, but good things take time:

  1. Leap Years

    2. Description: Pearson volunteered to be an experimental subject for a course he was taking, but he didn't expect it involved time travel! Sent five years into the future and arriving on the SDF-17 Wayward Son, Pearson, dubbed 'Doc' by PCHammer, tries to find a place to fit in. He finds excitement, a career, and love as he does so, but he is destined to return to the past. Trying to avoid his past self, while no changing history, is a difficult task.
  2. Leap Years, Part Two
  3. Dimension Hopping: Not Quite Home

Another side story in the Undocumented Features universe is by a friend of ours, and former WPI student, Adam Johnson, aka pfloyd. It runs concurrently with UF3, during the 297 year gap in the middle of the story. It is:

  1. One Vision

    2. Description: Pfloyd had a bad case of homesickness, so he did the only thing he could do about it. Go back to Earth and find his love, Laura. With his new ship, installed with the AI Holly, he arrives in Earth orbit to begin his search. Will Laura accept him after two years of thinking he was dead... and will she join Pfloyd in space?

We encourage you to read, and hopefully enjoy, all of the stories in the UF universe. All of the authors welcome feedback of any kind.

Thank you, the authors.
