[QUOTE="Mr. Beef, post: 3814456, member: 44124"] Well this is good news. I've been wanting to let my inner Robotech geek out. The only thing I don't like is that the first books is based on The Shadow Chronicles. A 192-page manga-sized trade paperback? This seems more like a gimmick to me. I can't stand small books. My eyes are not as good as they were about 20 years ago when the first Robotech RPG Books were released. Some of the artwork was good for it being black and white and in the 1980's, and now that I go back and look at some of it I really liked the drawings of the Destroids and Veritechs, but it just seemed so random and put in for no reason in some parts. I would like to throw my hat in to see the larger format, and maybe a hardcover please. Does this mean we will see things like cutting the MDC to 10% of standard, and leaving the weapon damage the same? This gives the more realistic combat where one shot will basically kill you. Why is there going to be considerable attention paid to the Southern Cross segment of the storyline? I What about the Robtech II The Sentinels? Will we see a book for that one, or will that be integrated in to the New Generation book? I only really liked Macross and the Sentinels. Robotech Live Action? When did this come about and is it going to be true to the original? I cut my gaming teeth on Robotech and really want to see this succeed, but I'm not going to be picking it up because I have the originals and unless there are major changes to the game I'll just play with those. I'll just wait. [/QUOTE]
