I'm happy to see someone is actually trying to bring organized play to the rrt community. Nice work there cap'n. Keep it up.

Kryptt

I'd give you my books for some rrt minis.

Kryptt

So I take it no one is going to submit an honest review about PB games on RPGs.net? Like I said before I can write one up when I feel like bothering with it but it's going to be honest. I'm not going to casually not include the bad and only the good considering there's so little good to speak of. I ...

Kryptt

It's because of this ^ that I don't bother GMing PB games. If you need more info and you won't get any until the next book comes out, or more like if, is just to much. I heard stories that some guys stopped playing because they were waiting and waiting and waiting still on a certain book. And before...

Kryptt

Also, invading RPG.net in an organised campaign to game the average review scores? Really? It's almost like you want to live up to the bad reputation Palladium fans have got over there. Thank you I forgot to advise that to my post. Like I said there's a reason for all the negativity besides "t...

Kryptt

My mistake I got GC and adepticon situations mixed up.lol Yes I was referring to the cop who got thrown under the bus.

Kryptt

Thing is, why are the reviews on rpg.net negative? Obviously there's a reason why so many rpg players troll anything PB. I don't see this kind of hate with other rpg games. I tried out the RT rpg and after playing for several weeks I've come to the conclusion that it needs a rehaul of the rules, bet...

Kryptt

Ok that is a broken promise and one I don't agree with. A few months back Kevin did post that he wanted to restart the rrt conversation with more updates and more insider info. So far nothing but empty broken promises.

Kryptt

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.

Kryptt

As a backer it's fine by me if Kevin sells the exclusives to everyone. RRT is a fun game even with the clunky HtH and LOS rules. No one is playing the game to begin with and backers and FLGS can't even make their money back on it. With wave two only being talk at this moment I don't know if the tabl...

Kryptt

True enough. I wish wave two would come out soon, but it's vaporware at this time.

Kryptt

There's a new chaos earth book coming out at the end of the month. A lot of PB's time was taken up by the new robotech miniatures game. Unfortunately it seems even the robo game will suffer from a lack of new releases. It could be years before PB is done with that project if at all.

Kryptt

It sounds great and all but if PB wants to make more money all they have to do is put on sale all the robotech models that are sitting around collecting dust. Yes you can request for RRT in the grab bags but that's not a guarantee you'll get it. Instead of the uncertainty of grab bags Kevin should j...

Kryptt

More cards and paper minis.

Kryptt

No clue. You'd have to ask them yourself.

Kryptt

I didn't write them. Credit goes to Jaymz and Mike.

Kryptt

I'm thinking of placing an order with GHQ for a few merkava tanks. It's Isralian and a cool design. After that I'll probably order some planes since that's more my thing.

Kryptt

Spoiler:

Enjoy

Kryptt

You have to understand according to Kevin wave two as of now is just talk since PB is exploring ways of reducing the high piece count. The new renders that were shown (again from Kevin's mouth to our ears) are by ND. The Chinese are supposed to copy those renders. They were included in the update to...

Actually there is a gameplay video out on YouTube featuring one of the mods here, unfortunately there are several rules inconsistencies that give out the wrong information.

Kryptt

Almost forgot to add results will vary from person to person. But overall this game has received less than great reviews from various online bloggers. If you want to play a mass combat game you could try battletech, drop zone commander, or X Wing. X Wing alone has a solid set set of rules. It's by f...

Kryptt

I played the game a few times just to get used to the rules. They were ok nothing groundbreaking about them. Except the game kinda slows down when you get into melee combat because instead of just rolling to attack like most games you have to stop and decide which HtH attack to use and if you want t...

Kryptt

All this could be moot. This game seems to be dead for now. It might be revived when wave two comes out but even then this game has hardly any real presence in gaming circles. To add to its already uphill battle it seems PB is having a difficult time just trying to get wave two out let alone redoing...

Kryptt

I've seen other KS creators show were their money is being spent and they also explain the situation when there is a delay too. This project doesn't seem to have that. I do appreciate the tone of the latest update. Quick and to the point. Nobody was blamed (especially the people who gave PB funds fo...

Kryptt

Since it's the BP's guns, all you need is some Tamiya thin glue. It works great on the BP guns.

Kryptt

I've rarely had my pods break. What glue are you using? I'm using the Tamiya thin glue. It works great for the battle pods. Unfortunately it's not so great with my Valkyries. Those minis fall apart if I even look at them funny. That's why I stopped playing and putting the rest of my pledge together....

Kryptt

It's more of a combination of things. I've noticed today's consumers (not all) like regular releases and new ways to play. Right now rrt has brought in a lot of new customers. You'd think it would give PB incentives to put out products that look like they were designed this century instead of the bo...

Kryptt

And now there's a fourth person going to the BBB. This seems to be snowballing. At this rate if enough backers contact the BBB and the AG it's only a matter of time till this affects PB's day to day operations and eventually it may lead to who knows what. PB needs to do something quick because it fe...

Kryptt

I think people need to remember a lesson their parents should have taught them.......if you can't say something nice, DON'T say anything at all. That isn't to say you can't question a decision that has been made......but you don't throw people under the bus to do it I'm sorry but nobody has posted ...

Kryptt

I would go so far as to say it's more than a vocal few. Sorry Elikon but your being disingenuous at best. That's were you and PB have made that mistake in the past. Obviously it's more than only a few. So far it's only three people with a fourth on the way. If PB continues to not discuss wave two it...

Kryptt

There's no proof it might be out by summer next year. I can't make an informed decision because thanks to a lack of updates I'm not well informed. Tell you what I'll get back to you soonTM.

Kryptt

I wish. I would love to see apps for that and for rifts gaming apps too.

Kryptt

Has there been any word on how the savage world version of rifts is coming along? I want to know what will be available when it's released besides the core book. I'd like to know if it will contain color art and if it will look less like a PB book (two column text) or look like it was made this cent...

Kryptt

Staying on topic I don't see to many people ordering the packs since the game stats still aren't available unless there's an update today considering the deadline ends tomorrow. It would have helped if Kevin didn't give a deadline and just let the playtesters the time they need to develop the rules ...

Kryptt

Considering the lack of information on wave two I'm surprised forum traffic hasn't spiked a little. Then again many people on kickstarter and other forums have commented on the draconian manner in which the forums are run, so that could be part of the problem. (No offense to any mods) I've noticed o...

Kryptt

having skimmed the kickstarter commentaries, i'd not say that they represent a 'significant number of backers", given they seem to be the same dozen or so people posting endlessly over and over. You should take a look at the post with the votes. There were more responses from various individua...

Kryptt

ARE THERE ANY CARDS THAT GO WITH THESE : Earth Defenders? Staying on topic, yes Mike is playtesting them now as we speak. In fact the reason why there was no update last week. Although Wayne could have just posted a wave two update without mentioning the new units. Man I hope I don't get reported o...

Kryptt

I noticed that too. I put it down to a half dozen folks who are not currently welcome on here... Goes to show that the loud voice was only a few. I would point out that if making a half dozen folks feel not welcome to express their dissenting views leads to a noticeable decrease in forum traffic wh...

Kryptt

I noticed that too. I put it down to a half dozen folks who are not currently welcome on here... Goes to show that the loud voice was only a few. If anything the reason traffic might be down is because of the hostile environment created by some who can't have a decent conversation without it turnin...

Kryptt

My thoughts exactly PJ. Most people don't need to be called haters by the hardcore fans because promises were broken. They gave PB money and expect a quality product on a sensible time schedule. As long as PB continues to ignore the backers when concerned with wave two. Then you'll see a bit of a sp...

Kryptt

This has been a disappointing experience to say the least. With respect to what Zino posted earlier PB did not deliver on their promises. Then again its subjective I suppose. They promised better communication which they're failing at. Nobody asked for a history lesson about PB. They promised to giv...

Kryptt

I just wish Kevin would give us what we backers really want. A detailed wave two update or just that they can't afford it for now if that's the case. Hard to stay optimistic when we're given the run around. I'm sure there will be folks who order the new items which is fine an all. But all this new s...

Kryptt

At this years Gencon they might be able to make some extra change with the core set and add ons'. Just like with GHQ minis I doubt it would be enough to finish wave two if PB really is low on funds. If wave two still isn't ready by the end of this year and those backers do force Kevin's hand via leg...

Kryptt

If people want a next gen era skirmish game then I'd say go with 28mm. Just please keep separate from rrt. I've seen what ghq can do with 6mm troops. They do not look like blobs of metal or the back of an ant. What ghq 6mm infantry do look like is fantastic for such tiny minis. Although I am open to...

Kryptt

Is it possible for someone here on the boards to go ask Wayne or Kevin if they could post a fourth update? I and a great many other backers would really like to know what is going on with wave two. All we know is that Kevin hopes it comes out by the end of the year, but most likely later next year. ...

Kryptt

At the same time it may not be worth buying if PB decides to shift the scale to 15mm. Why continue to build 6mm models that will be incompatible when the next era comes out.

Kryptt

I notice as soon it got negative this thread got moved. Interesting

Kryptt

It's PB's continued avoidance that's leading many people not just backers to think PB doesn't have the funds to finish wave two. The current update where ND is thrown under the bus over and over would have been more helpful last year, except we already knew most of that info. The point of my ranting...

Kryptt

I'd hate for PB to change scale. If next gen gets made I'd rather it stay at 6mm. The way LoS rules are written cyclones have an advantage by being so small. If there done by ghq they'll come out fine. Later on PB should come out with a next gen game in 28mm. Kinda like necromunda.

Kryptt

The information from the latest update was interesting. It would have been better if that info came out last year. The only thing not answered by the update was the status of wave two.LoL
