Not much to say here. All setup, no action.
Your prose is good, which is a plus.
I dislike the Washu method of creating a crossover - a cliche used too
many times, IMO.
I'm also very curious what kind of crossover you can do with these two
universes. I've put some thought into it myself, trying to come up
with an idea for a fanfic. I just can't see a way for the two
universes to interact. Ranma and Ryoga piloting Veritechs, okay... but
how does what makes them special in Ranma 1/2 cross over into Robotech?
In space no one can hear you cry, "Shishi Hokodan!"
I'm not trying to discourage you. Just warning you... setup is easy.
Heck, I once did a Watchman/Ranma setup. But doing a crossover that
finds a way to conflict the two universes for more than a page or
two... that's hard.
However, I will give you the benefit of the doubt. Just be warned... I
will be a harsh critic of the result, because Ranma 1/2 and Robotech
are two of my favorite bits of anime. If you can pull it off, though,
I will be your biggest fan. :)
Really, I can't offer you any more meaningful feedback until we see the
rest of this. I'm skeptical, but hopeful. :)
Loved the Transformers bit. :D :D Now Transformers/BGC... *there's*
a crossover with a lot of potential. Hmm...
