Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. At the beginning of 'The Comet Empire' saga, where is the Star Force's premier battle cruiser, the Argo?

Answer: On patrol in deep space.

At the beginning of 'The Comet Empire', as shown in the US, the Argo was on routine patrol in deep space. In the feature-length Japanese film 'Farewell to Space Battleship Yamato: In the Name of Love', the Yamato was in mothballs.

2. Which member of the Star Force assumed command of the Argo after the death of Captain Avatar?

Answer: Wildstar

A jack of all trades, Derek Wildstar assumed command of the Argo after Avatar's death. He consistently refers to himself as deputy captain, made evident by the fact that he rules from his combat seat, beside Mark Venture, instead of the captain's chair.

3. The Earth Defense Council begins receiving faint distress messages from deep space. What person is sending the messages?

Answer: Trelaina

Trelaina's calls for help are actually a warning to Earth. The Comet Empire, a giant flying fortress disguised as a comet, has ravaged other planets on its flight across the universe and is heading toward Earth.

4. What is the name of the Star Force captain who tried in vain to keep the Argo from taking off to answer the distress call?

Answer: Gideon

Derek Wildstar had trained under Captain Gideon in the Earth Defense Forces. They didn't always get along, but they respected one another, a fact made clear when Gideon allowed the Argo to pass his flagship, the Andromeda.

5. What name was given to the second generation of wave motion-powered battle cruisers?

Answer: Andromeda

The Andromeda class battle cruisers like the one Captain Gideon commanded featured twin wave motion cannon and improved manuverability. Essentially, they made the Argo obsolete.

6. On the way out of the Solar System, the Star Force stops to assist a group of Space Marines pinned down by robotic troops. On which planet are the Marines fighting?

Answer: Brumus

Brumus was the tenth planet in the Solar System. Despite being rescued by the Star Force, the Space Marines were none too grateful, and proved to be a handful for the Argo's crew. In the move 'Farewell to Space Battleship Yamato', the Marines join the Star Force before they leave Earth.

7. Who was the leader of the Space Marines contingent?

Answer: Sgt. Knox

As stubborn as they came, Knox proved both a pain in the side and a faithful ally to the Star Force.

8. Who was the leader of the Comet Empire?

Answer: Zordar

Zordar held a tight rein over the Comet Empire. He also never hesitated to crush any opponent in his way. He was even pursuasive enough to entice Desslok, the leader of the fallen planet of Gamilon, to join his forces.

9. Near which planet does the Star Force engage the Comet Empire in an epic showdown?

Answer: Saturn

Star Force suffered heavy casualties in the great battle at Saturn. The Comet Empire pushed forward for a sure takeover of Earth.

10. During the great battle, Desslok wounds Wildstar. Nova, the Argo's radar and life sciences officer and Wildstar's fiance, steps in to protect him. What does Desslok ultimately do?

Answer: Lets Nova and Wildstar live.

Not only does Desslok let Nova and Wildstar live, he tells them the secret to defeating the Comet Empire. He would later join forces with the Star Force in the third saga, 'The Bolar Wars'.
