Nah, Gargoyle's crew is USED to decompression.
After the unsecured lawyersdetritus gets sucked out, the crew closes the airlocks and repressurizes.
Then they wait awhile for the blindness and deafness from burst blood vessels, ignore the black eyes and 'vac-rash' everybody's sporting, and go back to work.

So Gargoyle's going to become a relativistic missile?
Yeah, sounds about right.

Meanwhile, I'm building Beige Squadron and Grey Company from the bare minimum of unpainted Robotech RPG Tactics miniatures.
They're unpainted, they're undistinguished, they're bare minimum talented, they all have forgettable names, and that's their strength!
They got overlooked for the Gargoyle mission and Khyron's legions respectively because they're just that forgettable!

Really, I have been thinking of getting some RT minis but I'm not sure if I can afford them or not and I was hoping that there would be some Southern Cross and Robotech Masters minis as well as Nex Gen minis

Also what's Tommy's last name? :twisted:

Sadly, I didn't wait until the liquidation, so I paid full price for most of mine.
Also sadly, no second or third generation minis(hell, there weren't even that many 1st gen minis...they were still working through the Macross models and setting new ones as Kickstarter goal prizes, like the MAC).

I doubt HG will let Ninja Division continue with the line.

Good point but you have to wonder who made the LZs *hot* LZs, either the crew of the Gargoyle due to their *stellar* mataince of the ship's reactor core or the planet's natives to burn away all traces of the ship and it's crew.

Why not both? Stuffing the engine nozzles full of thermite can''t be too healthy for reactor shielding.

Fooker didn't bother to check if the airlock he was going to freewalk was occupied first or not.
And Toombs forgot to post 'occupied' signs on the OUTSIDE of the airlock, as well as inadvertently disabled the pressure lockout safeties*.


*Though later investigation would show the airlock monitor records would show signs of tampering, making it unclear if it was Toombs or somebody else who had bypassed the safety protocols...about the only person NOT suspected was HAL, and that was because it was cut off from connection to any ship's life support systems by the judicious placement of several 5 ft thick non-conductive concrete blocks across certain fiber optic and wiring junctures.
So the real responsibility for Toombs' spacing would go unanswered...no that anybody particularly -cared-).
