I'm not sure how PB could be considered experts in RPG making. They made one game system in the '90s and have milked that format since. I personally consider their system utterly outdated and unplayable. I only used their books as tech manuals, and even for that they were inadequate. They are also clearly not experts in wargame making - in that case they would have been able to actually make a complete wargame.

Honestly, I don’t know much about that industry.  But I do know you and a lot whole lot of other people collectively gave PB so much support over the years, and over a million dollars just in the last decade, despite their flaws, got burned, and now hoping people are willing to do it again for other companies that might do it better.

 

Well, the board games are and have always been on a seperate license. So they are unrelated. SMG's first game was announced on SDCC 2017 (or earlier), meaning at least in July 2017. Palladium announced the loss of their license on February 28, 2018, and it took affect some time in April or May. Of course, HG probably knew that they would need to find a new RPG/wargame maker earlier than that, but they would of course not be able to breach a contract.

It rubs me the wrong way that this is essentially jumping ship from one long term investment project once helmed by experts in the RPG/ war game/miniature industries that didn’t work out to a whole bunch of them at the same time and hoping against hope that some of them will pan out.

 

I don't know what it has to do with the games listed here since the only relationship between the companies is both are licensees of Harmony Gold. 

I thought these games only became possible because Palladium screwed up so bad that they lost the license around the same time as they were first announced.

Too many people from the Palladium days got royally screwed for this.

Wow, so no one in Titan Comics really had the balls to "kill" anyone really important in this series.

Because if you haven’t been to Japan or Asia , you just don’t know..

Too bad that it has become acceptable form of performance art to point and gawk from the other side of the world by people who think they know better.

These days, I take people who have actually lived or even just took a trip to in Japan/Asia a lot more seriously over aging holdovers from Robotech who have co-opted a lot a habits from moonlighting in that mess for a very long time and bring that garbage here.

Am I doing it right?

No one has anything to say about letting the micronians "reap the whirlwind"? We've got a much-requested furmanism!

Ugh, so there are possibly 23 other stock quotes of his in this comic.  Any involving a knife is probably a given.

Looking at the wiki page again.  ”Worst case of indigestion (x) ever had.”  Seriously? 

How about you stop keeping this thread alive, Old_Nash.

Kind of funny that after all these years that it’s  the VA for Hibiki who goes to all these lengths to support the franchise and he wasn’t even the songstress for Macross II.

I think I remember seeing a creepypasta reading using a Myung pic as a visual too.

What kind of a sadist are you, expecting us to read these a second time to look for Furmanisms?

(and no, I didn't notice any the first time through, but I wasn't really looking; I was too caught up in how far his writing has fallen)

Shouldn’t the fact that Furmanisms are a thing be a clue about the quality of a guy’s writing, even if fans are kind of crazy over there?  But to be fair, I looked into it to get an idea what kind of people would come up with my memorable quote from the comic so far.  It was probably, hopefully, not him.

For anyone taking this more seriously than they should, have you seen any Furmanisms in the comic book?

Minmei had character development?

You’re right.  I forgot that it sucks to be a female character in the Robotech universe in general.  This is just par for the course.

Who are any of those people?  I'm guessing the one is Rick since he is mentioned.  He Man I have not guess on at all and is the girl supposed to be Minmei?

 

Minmei sings and has character development.  That's just a defibrillator on legs.

And many seemingly random red circles to you too.

On a theoretical level, are you willing to bet your online reputation against those circles?

Remember back in the Delta reviews when you made references to the Musiculture?  I think you were on to something about the new Zentradi movement, or at least a good guy version of it.

Happy New Years!

I want that hovertank. It can't get here soon enough. I had the original Matchbox toy and was always upset that it was only two modes.

Dude, don’t ruin your life for it like the thread starter did.

There’s a guy in this universe who used his fighter to punch a Vajra so hard that it exploded.  Just saying.

Thank God nobody lies on the Internet these days.  At all.

I have no idea who either of those characters are.

Don’t worry.  By 2021 you probably won’t need to care.

So anyway, congratulations Nova’s mom, you are the latest token shoutout to Southern Cross since that new animation from Love Live Alive.  Hope you get more development beyond being name dropped as Nova’s mom as this comic’s storyline continues to spiral out of control.

Wait a minute.  That means Nova’s future dad will take HER last name.
