I think something could be done with the Republicans and the NEMA army that ARCHIE has in suspended animation.

Chris0013

I love the idea of Ghost Fleet. Any chance they may add some civilain,s ships? Maybe they can give info on how to do Crossover with H,U:Aliens Unlimited and Phase world? Not sure if this is what you mean by "civilian" but I would love to see ships used by the other races as well as Tirole...

Uh, does it not compute that the "Super Logan" is an entirely different model of mecha whereas the "Armadillo" is an add-on kit to up-arm the Logan?

Yes...but the Super Logan has full functionality.

Chris0013

If we are going by what was in the novels....wasn't it NOT Denver?? Didn't the little in universe thing at the beginning of the chapter say it was actually an underground continuity of government site??

A laser rifle...causing a malfunction of the firing mechanism causing the weapon to fire on full auto until the magazine is expended and each shot causes the weapon to jump and fire off in a new direction for the next shot.

I am going to go with the gravity/atmosphere issues.

All I can remember about the Mercantile Republic (or was it Merchant Republic) were some references that were never fully fleshed out.

Chris0013

Why not just go with the Super Logan from RoTMs

Chris0013

I imagine the UEEF will try to unify everything under themselves....and there will be a lot of people who really don't give a crap about that and will want to be left the heck alone.

I think the only way the UEEF will get the unity they want is through force.

Chris0013

As for flying the combined planes from the Beta...I don't think that would have been possible with the way the Beta cockpit is set up and the way it folds down when it connects to the Alpha. the occupant would basically be sitting in a seat inside a large metal box that he could not see out of and ...

Chris0013

First a complaint....We really didn't get the full capability of the Beta till the last few episodes. It was used as both booster for the Alpha and then as a stand alone plane...No Battloid till almost the end of the series. As for flying the combined planes from the Beta...I don't think that would ...

did he have an exit strategy? An SDF stashed for a quick getaway to a class M planet or moon colonized by loyal sycophants and protected by a fleet that was kept off book from the UEG.

Chris0013

One of the issues I have is the incompatibility of CVR armor and Cyclone models between the -010 and the -030, -040, and -050 models. should have made compatible with all with only the space Cyclone models being different.

Chris0013

Would the 7th be Wolfe's command? Is there information on when Wolfe came back in the new continuity? Was it during the Masters War? or in between like old continuity? The old timers said they came during the Masters War so were they somehow part of Carpenter's command or the ships that showed up at...

Chris0013

Tirol very far....very far.

Chris0013

Wow, this brings up so many side-questions. Like, a full sized Zentraedi must consume TONS of food and water per day (literally, tons). Also the amount of "waste" they produce would be titanic. Unless they were still living on their ships and using the recycling facilities therein, a clan...

Chris0013

I would be happy to get a new series...if you can get the original cast for any of the existing characters then fine.

Very large barracks.

Chris0013

Training on M203s is not all that difficult...get a few days on a range with paint rounds and any schmo can learn it.

Chris0013

Colonies...and actual new mecha...not kit bashed stuff like we got in the Marines sourcebook.

Chris0013

This is not just for the larger size Master's book but for all going forward.....more art...group shots of mecha, mecha in different poses and showing use of different weapons, etc...

Not Masters..but take Cyclones...can we actually get more that the standard pics in the standard poses???

Chris0013

I would like to see a change on the Myrmidon...since it was not shown in the show there is no real canon to this...but I would say it should either be able to fire it's arm cannons in all 3 modes...or set it up so it carries the same gun pod as the Logan.

Chris0013

Was disappointed in the Design style when the book came out and went back and looked today and was still disappointed. The Art Style is good...but pretty much all of the designs for the non-transformable mecha to me were just kitbashed from all the existing mecha. Would have preferred more originali...

Chris0013

In that regard, I'd be perfectly happy applying the Robotech 1e Destroid names to the Expeditionary Force Marines Destroids — mostly. After raiding the naming thread on this forum, I'd go with: • Raidar X instead of Defender (Rifleman is taken by the VR-011 Cyclone) • Excalibur instead of Tomahawk ...

Chris0013

Did this thread a while back. Starts you off with Boot Camp / Officer's Candidate School for full basic military training. Then specific skills for an MOS.

Chris0013

Yeah, it would have been easier to just have a listing of modular accessories as opposed to different models. But I honestly overlook the Silverback anyway. It got so little play in Prelude and none in the movie...its hard to associate with it and it really does not stand out as a significant mecha...

And corrects the art for the Myrmidon......just saying.

Chris0013

I would have liked to have seen this statted out: m well, since thats the early design for the Alpha, you more less did... I would like to see them stated as the Vector-Dread combo unit... I would much rather see new original stuff created for RT than the continued pillaging from OSM sources, even ...

Didn't like some aspects of the timeline...3 years for the jump to Tirol...they were not in contact with any other UEEF units that they talked to when they arrived" "SDF-3 Control to Space Station Liberty...we have arrived at Tirol." "Liberty to SDF-3....WHERE THE #@$%# HAVE YOU ...

Chris0013

Looks like the entire design philosophy was to "kitbash" the existing Alpha and Cyclone designs and meld parts together to make something "new." And all these Alpha parts on the new mecha don't even have missiles. Its not just Alpha parts, but also Beta (which isn't in productio...

Chris0013

Just my $0.02 worth of input in regards to the art. I like the art itself...it is the design I have issue with. The Cyclones are fine. But the Destroids/Battloids....well there is an old saying..."Be careful what you wish for....you just might get it." Looks like the entire design philosop...

per the fluff for the bioroid interceptor in the main book, they did fight. enough that the zentreadi were getting dreadfully short of battlepods by the time they reached tyrol. presumably the enemies they fought were remnants of the zentreadi grand fleet, and surviving master's border forces.

Chris0013

Aside from the main pieces mentioned buy the OP...I think all that is left is the thigh pieces and helmet...and IIRC Lancer did not put on a bodysuit in Metamorphisis...he put on a long sleeve shirt and then his armor.

Chris0013

actually, i could see a timeskip being used to justify the switch to a new OCC... instead of a slow play through of the time spent learning all the new skills and such (which could well take years IRL), the GM just declares "ok, we're going to jump forward 3 years when we meet next session. pl...

Have been thinking an interesting concept would be to take an urchin from the Invid Invasion in 2031 to the Battle of Reflex Point in 2042. Through the natural passing of time or through a time skip?

personally hoping human designed but sized for full sized zents.. thats pretty much what they were supposed to be in the sentinels film (visual replacements for the macross designs), and it would make sense that humanity designed new, tougher mecha for their full sized zent auxillaries They were mo...

Lot of good work there. Me likey.

Chris0013

Has anyone considered the the morlock problem and the shortage of meat issue could be solved at the same time?

Chris0013

Do you think after the Marines they will do a book on the Aliens? Maybe add a new Villain race? I think after marines they will likely do something for the fleet. We could only hope to get some of the things we desire such as a few of those elusive things. But I would not count on seeing it for a l...

Chris0013

I have to chime in here and say that the whole Chief Sergeant/Master Chief Sergeant thing smacks of one of two things: 1) -a Francophone writing the enlisted ranks. Sergeant-Chef is a thing in the French military, and the culinary use of the word is an intentional borrow from the military sense of ...

Chris0013

Its nice that the REF Destroids and Z-series Battlepods are back. The non-transformable Power Amplified Body Armor was good, though it should interface with CVR-3 only ( and there is NO REASON for it to be issued to non-combatants. Why would non-combatants be trained in the use of infantry powered ...

Chris0013

Since what we are getting is pre-Invid Invasion mecha...would liked to have seen an early model Alpha...maybe labeled a VF/A-6C....but is down to maybe 30 missiles in the legs and shoulders.

Chris0013

maybe Palladium needs to do this Raw thing on all books going forward....get a limited number of copies out there and let ups proof them to deal with any grammatical errors / confusing stats before the final book is printed.

Chris0013

Didn't look over stats for the Paraxians or any other stats for that matter, I just wanted to see what they did for the book in terms of what fluff they used and what they added from the pre-production art. Also nice of you to have that link in your sig. that helped. I anxiously await the email ask...

Chris0013

So I got the raw preview a few days ago. All in all I don't think its bad. being able to see the book in raw form will allow us to see how much HG butchers the manuscripts PB sends to them. The book is really centered around the early to mid years of the UEEF from circa 2015 to 2035 (while the TSC ...
