Welcome to ROBOTECH BATTLES, the Tabletop Miniatures Skirmish Game Fansite based on the Anime series Robotech. Robotech is the American series created in 1985 from the Japanese series Macross. As the Robotech Tactical RPG game develops I will be updating this blog with insider information, design and background to the game. As much as I want to see this game progress, it cannot work without you; the fans of Robotech. This site is for the Robotech fans and Skirmish Tabletop Game fans out there.

A worthy read for anyone. This is a well written article and there are many an idea that ring true here.

In regards to Robotech Battles, it seems that Palladium is giving everything a hopeful look, but there will not be any discussions or progres until after their Open House this weekend (May 4th-6th). Until then I'm getting great response to the Robotech Battles : Macross rules that were sent out for playtesting. There is a great debate over elevations and of course the reworking of the Close combat rules to make gameplay less confusing and more fun to play. I'll be getting back into the rules discussions and retweejing as soon as I get real world issues controlled. Drop me a line here or on the forums with your thoughts and comments on the rules.
I've acquired the proposed cover art for the rules, as much as I want to put a mecha on the cover there is too much different types of artwork out there to choose from. I'm looking to have a diarama scene of te actual miniatures on the rear cover.
Robotech Miniatures has also updated the fun rules (Version 1.6) that were tested at Adepticon, and reposted the cardstock miniatures and a scenario. http://www.facebook.com/RobotechMiniatures
