Robotech Kickstarter
« on: May 04, 2013, 03:12:11 AM »
Check it out, 30 years after one of the first anime's out there, and it's follow up RPG, we finally get the miniature game.

I know this isn't a specialist game, but I'm a multidimensional gamer, and I'm betting some of you are too.

Robotech got me into Battletech, which got me into 40K, which got me into Necromunda and Blood Bowl.

Enjoy!

As a massive Macross fan, I have been watching this one too. I dont think that it will be a game that I jump on in a big way, but when the minis are released through regular channels I will probably pick up a few just to paint up.

Oh man, could you imagine Zentradi cruisers in a game of BFG?
Get that in the kickstarter

Ha. An Emperor Titan sized SDF-1 would make me very happy indeed... as long as it also transformed.

They should be. Both Robotech and Battletech are listed as 6mm.

I actually got a Scout pod at Adepticon. The detail is very good.

I'm VERY PISSED that I was unable to get one of those Regults at Adepticon.  Damn forgeworld was being slow in getting their till up and it delayed letting anyone get into the dealer area and I couldn't get in before I had to go to round 1 of my tournament.

Always make sure there's a day free to troll the loot room, that's what I've learned. ;)

I have my collectible metal one too. I plan on getting in on the 140 level of the kickstarter, because free stuff is fun. Good to know I'll, at the very least, have goober to play against!

Had forgeworld not <bip bip> their tills and delayed the standard entry for the room I would have been fine.  Instead they had that damn "let 10 people in make more wait for a few minutes" phased entry garbage that had me at the front of a new set right as my available time ran out.

relax gentlemen, beware of the language. It seems you are really upset, but do not loose your manners.
