I just bought a Quel-Quallie model on eBay. Looking forward to building it and using it in games. The scale is off, but it should serve our purposes well. I have taken the rules for it and put it on the templates to match with all the other Stat cards. So if anyone else has one they can use the rule...

CaptKaruthors

I agree with Jaymz. The Recon core cards are the most efficient way to get more CPs into your army..which is a critical component to make zentraedi successful. Zentraedi will need to make some boosts with their units to close the distance...OR may need those extra CPs to dodge or roll. Having more C...

What sort of load out are you running? What does your force look like? It's hard to give advice without knowing what you are fielding and at what points level. If you are getting blown away across the table, terrain may be an issue. Protecting your Glaug can be tricky but always remember to keep som...

I have created 3 new character cards for Robotech RPG tactics: Zeraal, Gorian, and Hiro. These were the final three characters to complete the set of characters from the Robotech: Battlecry video game. Additionally, you can still find the previous special characters I made as well via this link: m A...

I'm interested in hearing people's thoughts on the matter. What items/ things would you use if you had to battle one in your game?

CaptKaruthors

The Organized play packet I made has 8 missions in it. They were designed with Wave 1 models only in mind. Download it. Play games with it. Test it. I can only get better with more community feedback.

CaptKaruthors

They could take the convention exclusive models of the FPA and MPA and box them into squads of 3, put the cards for them in the box and sell them as Wave 2 models. Have GHQ do new arm poses so the exclusivity of the Con Models is maintained. Easy...and a no brainer. You then get to check off 2 units...

You can find them in the Organized Play folder.

CaptKaruthors

Sounds like they're hoping for a community run tournament here as well (err, because they are). Isn't Organized Play supposed to be in the hands of the Megaversal Ambassadors? That was what they said would be the case when Ninja Division was quietly removed from the duty. Any MA can take the Organi...

CaptKaruthors

While not a major problem, we think it would be cool if the Valks can spend a command point at the end of their afterburner move to change modes.

Thanks! It was fun to do and hopefully I can get the League pack done soon.

CaptKaruthors

Very nicely done. I'm guessing you've had some prior experience as a TO. Have you thought about forwarding this stuff onto Palladium themselves? Perhaps they can incorporate it into an official organised play pack to get things jump started on their end. Or even put it in an issue of the Rifter to ...

After a few weeks of putting this thing together into a cohesive format, I present the first set of organized play rules for anyone that wants to run RRT events. Everything you need is contained in this packet to run events smoothly. Click on the link to download it and get started. m I will be post...

CaptKaruthors

I have made Force cards and Support Cards for Gnerls. You can download them from my drop box link below. Also a reminder that my custom special character cards for Jack Archer, Izzy Randall, Kiyora, Geraro and Khyron the Destroyer are still available to download as well.

Getting a deal on 2 core sets will get you lots of models to work with. If you are into the destroids..the box sets are awesome. I would also recommend getting some artillery battle pods as they are great equalizers to the stuff the UEDF is using.

CaptKaruthors

A sample army I've used for games is a core squad of VFs and a core squad of 4 tomahawks. It's basic...but allows for a player to get a feel for how Veritechs and Destroids differ in terms of game play. Tomahawks are extremely durable and allows the player to make mistakes and not get shot off the b...

CaptKaruthors

By the perk of being an MA is that you are an MA. That's it. There really are no other perks. No guidelines for types of scenarios. No guidelines for prize support. Nothing. That's not a program. That's a "please please please please run events for us for free. No, you have to write the scenar...

CaptKaruthors

So let me get this straight... It's essential the fault of the fans that RRT isn't getting promoted well enough even though the company has done effectively zero to do any promotion itself beyond "buy more stuff" in their weekly update that most people ignore? And people wonder why I resi...

CaptKaruthors

I am working on a early draft of organized play rules. Expect to see them posted soon. If people want to use it, great. The biggest problem I see, is that the community isn't unified..or unified enough. Part of that is PBs fault for not helping to foster one. Sure we have some people into the game, ...

CaptKaruthors

As for the question of why the person who ran it last year doesn't this year... Well he had a bad run last year with a certain someone in the community and now that individual has stepped down as a MA. Bummer. I heard that the people that played in it had a good time..and the Adepticon organizers w...

CaptKaruthors

Incentives to work for demo teams doesn't necessarily mean being 'paid'. Wyrd has a similar system where community members can check in with their hours demo'ing at stores and running leagues/tournaments and get credit, which can then be 'spent' on product from their web store. Many of these "...

CaptKaruthors

So basically what I am seeing here is... that because you cant get the same level of pay to run events as you get from some of the top names in the industry that you are unwilling to run the events and that no one else is willing to run these events unless they get paid as well. Hmmm, I think I am ...

Does anyone know where to find any? Or maybe 4 ft. by 3 ft. tables? Can't seem to find them anywhere. Want to use them for RTT and other games. And I would like not have to build my own. You can find folding work tables at Lowes. They have several different dimensions. You'll probably need two. The...

CaptKaruthors

At this time, the incentive for the MA program is the prestige of being a MA, and the ability to host official events. I'm sorry. That's not enough incentive. Look at what PP, FFG, and Corvus Beli does? Look at what GW used to do with their outrider program? There was reasonable incentives to get p...

CaptKaruthors

The MA program was set up just for this sort of thing....but its not used. I think that the lack of incentives for this program is what makes it not work. You have to provide some reasonable incentives for these people. Otherwise, it will never work. Additionally, you have to be committed to gettin...

CaptKaruthors

Shameful. Absolutely shameful. I don't understand why PB will even attend in 2016 then. What's the point? If there are no events to promote your game...why bother? What's more troublesome is that I feel like nobody wants to build a unified RRT community anymore and everyone just wants to just go the...

To buy the convention miniatures you had to have attended Gen Con...or any Con Palladium was at. To buy them at anytime...all the time...you need to be a KS backer. Last month PB did a flash sale and offered them to the general public via their website for a limited time. So to get them..you need to...

CaptKaruthors

Question: Do cover save modifiers/penalties still apply to the initial roll to strike vs. DF5? Or is it a straight roll? What about targeting units nearby out of LOS? Does the -3 still apply?

Yeah I found that, but the resolution isn't good enough..thus I made my own. Hehe.

CaptKaruthors

I don't know if that's necessarily true. Look at Rick, Max and Miriya's cards. Most of the cards I've created are more expensive than they are and have similar abilities. Additionally, Kiyora's main ability is one use only. Test them out and see where they stack up with other characters and also wit...

I have completed two new cards. Izzy's picture for the moment is a 10 minute thumbnail sketch I quickly drew since there really is no solid art for her that I could find. Kiyora's card uses the concept art from the Robotech Battlecry game. Check out the new cards, test them out in games and let me k...

Ok, I have fixed the VF-1R issue with Jack's card. I have also updated the game text of his Dead Eye Shot ability to be more clear. This was based on feedback from players testing the cards.

CaptKaruthors

I'll update his card then. Yeah, I haven't played that game in ages (like 10 years)...and forgot. Thanks for the feedback! I'll update his card tonight and repost it. Stay tuned.

CaptKaruthors

Did he fly one in the game? I only recall him flying a VF-1A in the game. My memory is foggy. If that is true, I can always update the card.

The two "nozzles" are actually the gun barrels for the two guns on the power armor's chest. They are glued to the circular flat areas on the chest of the model. The fin/ antenna gets glued just behind the power armors "head". Google an image of the female power armor for placemen...

Brilliant work. Nice and clean. It really makes the model jump off the tabletop. Got any other pictures?

I've seen people mark the back of their base (that raised tab) with numbers, symbols, or names. They usually will paint that tab in white and write with a micron/ sharpie the numbers/ names, etc. I've seen some people use a label maker and put that on the center of the base. In that case they kept t...

CaptKaruthors

Most of those are legit. They are cards made by people based on the force organization images from another thread. I bought 3 miriya's in female power armor to make a squad of them to use in games. I'm looking forward to trying them out.

CaptKaruthors

Yup. I have a 3 man squad of female power armor with Miriya leading them...and a support squad of Male Power Armor to escort Khyron's Regult Recon Squad.

I was able to get the mother load of Con exclusives. I got 2 miriyas in power armor, 3 Grells in power armor, 1 breetai, and 1 miriya in super valk. I can't wait to get them from my friend who purchased them on my behalf. Can't wait to assemble them and use them in games.

Are they going to be posting pictures of these exclusives? It would be cool to see what they look like for the people that can't buy them.

The PB T-shirts have bored me to tears. I want something wild and dynamic. I have been impressed with the all-over art prints I have seen at ComicCon.

I'd like to go...but no can do. I need to ask if my friends are going so I can acquire the GenCon exclusives for Robotech. I'm bummed that they aren't releasing those as actual product to buy.
