Plot Summary
The game's plot is told over the course of the 3 previous Alpha titles, but Alpha 3 focuses primarily on the events of the following series: Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, Dancouga – Super Beast Machine God, Macross 7, Steel Jeeg, The End of Evangelion, Gunbuster, The King of Braves GaoGaiGar, Chōdenji Robo Combattler V, Chōdenji Machine Voltes V, Tōshō Daimos, and Ideon. However there is an overarching plot that is told over the backdrop of the various series. The game starts at the end of the "War of Seals" (see 2nd Super Robot Wars Alpha) with the crew of the Ra Calium coming upon a massive ring like structure in the Asteroid Field. This Crossgate (as it is later called) causes the Excelion (which blew up at the end of the first Alpha game to take out the STMC) and its crew to reappear even though two years have passed since the end of the first Alpha. The game then gives a summary of all the events of the previous 3 games and depending on which character the player chose at the start of the game will then start the story from there. As the story progresses the Alpha numbers find themselves fighting against the Akashic Record itself to stop the complete destruction of the galaxy which is known as "Apocalypsis".

Famous quotes containing the words plot and/or summary:
“Trade and the streets ensnare us,
Our bodies are weak and worn;
We plot and corrupt each other,
And we despoil the unborn.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
