** Bian, leader of the "Divine Crusaders", is a genius scientist who sees the extraterrestrial threat on the horizon and realizes drastic action must be taken to save the world when the complacent government wouldn't. Forming the Divine Crusaders, Bian launches a coup d'etat that nearly succeeds in overthrowing the Earth's military forces, with only a small crew of allied characters managing a sizeable resistance against the Divine Crusaders. Be it this game or his appearance in ''Original Generation'', Bian is worshipped by his followers as a charismatic visionary, one who looks out for them when TheFederation didn't. Though he is defeated, Bian reveals his XanatosGambit - [[spoiler:his CivilWar against the government was to strengthen the heroes in order to face the oncoming alien threats in his place; [[ThanatosGambit by killing him, allied forces prove they can protect the Earth better than he and the Divine Crusaders could ever hope to do]]]]. Bian's words and legacy would affect the rest of the Classic Timeline and ''Original Generation'' {{Sequel}}s.
** Shu, a genius scientist who single-handedly created the SuperRobot Granzon, was able to devastate the Kingdom of Langran in the ''Masou Kishin'' back-story. In the Classic Timeline, ''Alpha'' saga and ''Original Generation'' series, he journeys to the surface world and aligns with Bian's Divine Crusaders and helps with his insurrection[[note]]Sans ''Alpha'' since Bian doesn't rebel[[/note]], all the while manipulating Masaki and his surface allies, constantly arranging things to Shu's benefit. When he finally squares off with Masaki for what appears to be a final confrontation and is defeated, Shu insists it's AllAccordingToPlan as he's revived to continue serving the dark god Shiva Volkruss; however, Shu knew that by being resurrected, his link to Volkruss would be severed, finally freeing himself to achieve his own goals. Shu goes on to destroy Volkruss, while simultaneously taking the same power the dark god granted him, transforming the Granzon into the Neo Granzon. Shu sneers how he won't allow anybody to ever control him again, not even a god, as Volkruss is destroyed by the Neo Granzon.

Added DiffLines:

* DifficultySpike: One scenario forces players to protect the ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamCharsCounterattack La Cailum]]'' battleship while it's doing its preparation for going into space. {{Mook}}s are coming in; no problem, just send allied units towards them...until the {{Mook}}s ignore them and go straight for the ''La Cailum''. In fact, [[OhCrap they're slaughtering it]]. From this point on, it would be best to start using Spirit Commands (the franchise's equivalent of magic spells).

* EnsembleDarkhorse: [[Characters/MasouKishin Shu Shirakawa]] isn't simply famous as the ArchEnemy of [[Characters/MasouKishin Masaki Andoh]], but rather a combination of his intellect, resourcefulness and personality. That Shu's [[ThatOneBoss Granzon/Neo Granzon]] in older appearances was receptive to players added to his status, ultimately leading to his resurrection in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsEX'', granting Shu his own story route in that game. When more ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsGaiden Masou Kishin]]'' {{Sequel}}s were released, Shu continued to become prominent in the plot as a playable character alongside Masaki and his fellow Heralds, all the way into his appearance for ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration'', which neatly adapted his "[[FanNickname Classic Timeline]]" story for the modern era. Next to fellow franchise darkhorse [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlphaGaiden Sanger Zonvolt]], Shu is as much of a mainstay to the ''Super Robot Wars'' franchise as its most recurring characters like Masaki.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: TheFederation listens to Bian Zoldark in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha'', mainly due to the aliens hovering above Earth. Likewise, the government in the [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Shadow-Mirror dimension]] does too, but only after [[spoiler:he was KilledOffForReal]].

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Depending on his appearances from whichever {{Continuity}}, TheFederation listens winds up listening to [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Bian Zoldark in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha'', mainly due to Zoldark]] - for the ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha'' saga, it's primarily because aliens are hovering above Earth. Likewise, Earth, having already posed a threat; likewise, so does the government in the [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Shadow-Mirror dimension]] does too, for ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration'', but only after [[spoiler:he was [[spoiler:he's been KilledOffForReal]].
