KICKSTARTER IS LIVE

GO GO GO !!
robotech-rpg-tactics Kickstarter




Now is the time to help defend Earth against the Zentraedi Invasion!!
Robotech® RPG Tactics™ Kickstarter – April 18, 2013

Palladium Books® and Ninja Division (the creative minds behind Soda Pop Miniatures and Cipher Studios) are proud to announce the launch of the Robotech® RPG Tactics™ Kickstarter.

Robotech® RPG Tactics™ empowers you to take command of the fighting forces of the United Earth Defense Force (UEDF) or lead the massive clone armies of the Zentraedi Armada in pitched combat. Relive the massive battles on your tabletop, engage in stand-alone tactical games or use the dynamic game pieces to enhance your Robotech® RPG experience. Collect your favorite mecha from an expanding range of world-class game pieces.

Why should you care? The Robotech® RPG Tactics™ Kickstarter helps Palladium to fund the launch of a compelling and expanding game line designed specifically for Robotech® fans and gamers. Six months of product development has produced nearly two dozen gorgeous sculptures (with many more to come), a mountain of artwork, and game rules that have been play-tested by more than 100 Robotech fans and gamers to ensure Robotech® RPG Tactics™ is everything you could want. And because so much is DONE, this project should go into manufacturing within 45 days after the Kickstarter!

More Robotech® adventure to enjoy. Ever consider playing a role-playing game? Check out Palladium’s Robotech® role-playing game line. Each book contains a wealth of information, artwork and sometimes never-before-revealed stats and information about the mecha, vehicles, weapons, characters and settings you love. The four core books – Robotech® The Shadow Chronicles® Role-Playing Game, the Macross Saga™ Sourcebook, the Masters Saga™ and New Generation™ – are worth owning just to have the reference they provide, even if you never play the game. Inexpensive and available now.

I suspect it'll be funded in a couple hours, tops... its already 56K/70K.

That is a great sign, surely now we'll see the other 2 eras as well... maybe even the sentinels.

However, when you get to the smaller minis like cyclones/odeons, not sure how those would look in plastic. Hard plastic like models would be great, but the more bendable stuff would look like butt.

I assure you. These will be some of the highest quality miniatures that you can find..

So, is this your game? Or something else that Palladium made?

The Robotech Battles game that I made, is in mothballs.. Those rules may see the light of day in the future. The Robotech RPG Tactics game is a new creation that I had some influence in making.. I was part of the development team..

Be nice to see *some* details on the game itself, it is after all what they are funding and all we have is pics of some minis.

I mean c'mon, a PDF or two of the cards, maybe a little walk through, all of that should have been on the page at the start IMO.

I'd give $3500 if they'd post a bit more on the site :(
