If its a bigger model, then its a bigger target. It really shouldn't matter, but it will be easier to target.

Yes they do exist. Please refer to the before mentioned Facebook page.

Just the VF-1S - Characters do not count towards specials

"...equal to the number of mecha that were in the destroyed squadron..."- wording on Malcontent rules card referring to number of command points generated next command point refill when a squadron is destroyed. So, a Light Raider Squadron starts with 8 mecha (and have no support or specia...

Jeff and PB have the demo and painted armies from Gencon and such.. I have used this army and they have at least 300 pts for each faction..They have also the high priced painted army but im positive they do not put that one on the table. They have a table in the office for pick up games and going th...

I actually like these better than some of the GW models.. if you turn a GW model over you don't see any detail or you get a big wash of smooth plastic.. on these you get the detail. I can't tell you how many times I've had to compromise the quality of painting because detail blended into other detai...

Wanted an opinion on the following scenario I'm working on. Orbital Bombardment As the combat pilots of the UEDF work to fight off the defending forces in the air, the Zentraedi armada open fire on the island clearing the way for their ground forces to press the attack. Scenario Rules: Terrain - Set...

Targeting a mecha within 2 inches is for Non-blast missiles against mecha that cannot be seen. You can shoot missiles around corners at mecha you cannot normally target if they are within the allotted 2 inches (pg 29). As stated Volley allows each missile to target independently. Blast allows them t...

Normally you cannot fire any weapon twice. The GU-11 can be fired twice with the Rapid Fire rule. This costs a single command point for the second shot. There is no third shot with the GU-11. Since you are in Battloid mode you can use the range of 24 inches per shot. Any Character rules may further ...

So why does the rulebook have three factions if its a two-horse race?

Official - yes until an official rules FAQ or forum is set up. I'm sure anyone else who worked on the rules would agree that there are only two current situations. You are touching the base of the enemy model or you are not. If your base is touching the enemy's base then you are both engaged. Period...

Question 1. Does a mecha need to be considered engaged in hand to hand combat in order to make a hand to hand attack against an enemy mecha? YES Once a mecha is in base to base contact with an enemy mecha, the two are considered to be engaged in hand to hand combat. Also reference the subsection 2 i...

was that secret project X or secret project Y?

I ran a demo with none other than Dave Taylor of Games Workshop fame. He was playing the Zentraedi in our demo game. In his gaming circles, Dave is notorious for rolling 1's. So, lots of 1's were rolled and the Zents were wiped out on the demo table. He definitely enjoyed the demo and was curious on...

I would agree with you on many of your points and I will bring it to PB's attention further to make sure there is a better response and a more modern answer..

Two such videos, actually, would be spectacular; another 'demo' that takes its time through a few turns to show off how the game is played, and a straight up game between two players, with no particular chatter other than what it takes to play the game to show off how 'fast' it really is (with comm...

Just to clarify . The video was drawn out and unedited, there was no pauses or stopping of the recording.. There was a good amount of discussion on the video, including alot of questions and answers. Actual gameplay was roughly 30 - 40 minutes a turn with 4 units per side, for people who did not kno...

I spoke with Kevin and Jeff over this item on Tuesday, The goal is to provide replacement pieces for miscasts, deformities etc.. There is a plan to provide customer service for this. there won't be a need to send them the miscast piece. A phone call will suffice. They have already handled this item ...

Whats in a name: how about a place holder... Robotech Battles: Macross Robotech Battles: Masters Robotech Battles: The New Generation Robotech Battles: The Sentinels Robotech Battles: The Shadow Chronicles and so on.. but you can't continue a project to its full potential when stage 1 doesn't sell.....

Concerning the Miniatures and the expansion of the RT license.. There is alot of speculation about what's happening and why things have happened the way they have happened. All I can say is that, there are alot of things being done behind the scenes that will be explained when the time comes. Have a...
