Quick Rules added

veritech squadrons protecting the SD-F1


A quick Reference Sheet of the Main rules has now been provided in the Download section.
This sheet is to help you get the basics of the gameplay. It gives you a brief summary of the turn sequence, some terrain effects, special rules and most importantly the defense rules. This is not a replacement for the rules but it does give you a quick reference for some of the more common rules. Make sure you have the main rule set for the rules that creep up when you play any game.
Whether your playing a space battle, a city fight, or aerial dogfight in the upper atmosphere you will enjoy shooting, dodging massive amounts of missles and destroying your enemies mecha.

Please give me your thoughts on the game and what you see that could be done to help improve the game.. I'm listening.

Krimpets part Duex!!

Were Back!! Did you miss me!


My wife came home from the store and said that she had a surprise for me... OK, I thought she would say something like I bought you this <Insert pastry goodness here>... then she said that I would wet myself when she told me... This piqued my interest a bit ... Needless to say that I really paid attention to what she said next... PANCAKE KRIMPETS are BACK!! and I bought two boxes that were on sale!... You should have seen the smile on my face and the spring in my step... (no, I didn't wet myself).. Not only are they back for a limited time, Tasycakes were on sale too!.. well I kissed my wife and said several thank you's to her and helped her put away the groceries. As I was doing this I would catch myself glancing at the two boxes of  snack cake goodness and then drool a little..,, Fun Times..
I normally don't go crazy over a snack cake, but I was really disappointed this year when I expected the limited edition krimpets to be out.. Check out why here terrain-tables-and-krimpets

As for the Game and the blog.. I'm starting to convert a veritech model into a battloid for possible scanning and prototyping.. the scale is 1/144 and I'm still deciding if that scale is going to be good for you guys, the gamers..

ALWAYS REMEMBER - Playtestors wanted... download the rules, grab some models, transformers, toys, proxies or even the cardstock minis that have available and PLAY! Check out the forums, log in,  and start posting..

As I sit here typing this, post I wipe the crumb of a Pancake krimpet from my mouth and smile

Start of January. Where did 2011 go?




Play test me!!
 I like seeing things move forward.. unfortunately.. The holidays have been keeping things busy.. I hope to have some time to move forward with Robotech Battles.. Namely the big elephant in the room.. licensing.. I have some phone calls to make and some dancing to do..
Moving into mid January I'll be adding to the forums a few things.. Namely scenario designs.. There will be a Post for each scenario that is intended with the initial book release. Those of you familiar with the series Robotech will know that there were 36 episodes to the first Robotech War.. I will be posting histories and preliminary scenarios for the first 18 episodes.. Not every episode will have a scenario but I think there will be plenty there to keep even the hardcore gamer interested. I will be concentrating on the first 18 episodes because I really saw "Farewell Big Brother" as a real turning point in the show and it is also the first half of the 36 shows. So keep checking into the forums as more content is added. I cannot know if there is anyone seeing this project as a good thing unless you post. So help a project out and give feedback.

Playtesting.. I could use some more of it.. I have done extensive playtesting of the VF-1A's and J's along with the Regults (Battle Pods). I need more playtesting of the Female power armor, VF-1S, Fighter pods and all the Battloids..  Also let me kow what you think of the aces..
PLease let me know what you think and I am always looking for more people to help on the project.. Talk at you soon!
