Strategic Cyborg Evangelion: Difference between revisions

{{quote|The way I avoided that with ''Nobody Dies'' is that I kept it in a close, but alternate version of the canon timeline. But that was the kind of story that I wanted to tell. You don't want to do that with the setting - this is closer to ''Aeon Natum Engel'' than ''Nobody Dies''. You're taking the ideas of ''Eva'' and putting them in a more hard scifi/''Half Life'' verse. I say go for it.|''Gregg Landsman about this fic''}}

''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6313201/1'''Strategic Ascension]Cyborg Evangelion''''' is an [[Alternate Universe Fic]] crossover between ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' and ''[[Half Life]]'', written by rookie writer [[Tropers/Amitakartok|FraktalAMT (initially under the name amitakartok]]). It'sIts basic premise is simple: what if the Black Mesa Incident was Second Impact which happened in the US instead of Antarctica? And what if it happened two years ahead of SEELE's schedule, completely messing up their plans? Well, if ''[[Shinji and Warhammer40K|Shinji and Warhammer 40 K]]'' is the love child of ''Eva'' and ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]'', ''Ascension'' is the love child of ''[[Half Life]]'', ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'' and ''[[Nobody Dies]]'', attempting to fuse the [[Real Robot]] and [[Super Robot]] genres into a coherent whole.

The fic itself picks up in 2041, [[Continuation|23 years after the Combine has been ousted from the planet]]. While humanity still haven't recovered completely, they harvested and reverse-engineered most of the leftover Combine technology for themselves. In these times, a certain Kaworu Nagisa transfers to Tokyo-2 after his old school takes issue of him having taken lessons from [[Gurren Lagann|Kamina]]. Shortly after his arrival, he gets into the middle of several incidents which seem to be connected to a mysterious classmate of his, Rei Ikari. And what's the deal with those [[Humongous Mecha|Humongous Mechas]]s built illegally by the Artificial Evolution Laboratory?

* [[Four -Philosophy Ensemble]]: Kaworu is the Optimist, Shephard is the Realist, Yui is the Cynic. Rei is somewhere between the Cynic and the Apathetic.
