I believe it has been stated that the current crop of RRT testers are under an NDA, which isn't surprising.

But it would/will be *fascinating* to hear some of their thoughts on the progression of your work, as compared to the how the project developed behind the scenes.

The paper counter for the game

Oh...well yes I did SOME paper counters but not to the scale of RRT. My counters were more along the lines of 25mm scale so my Robotech counters were quite large. I think the Tomahawk was about 6-7 inches tall.

No problem, I was looking for help to do Southern Cross and New Gen Counters.

Well it would be easy enough to do once i had samples of the height of hte minis being used for the game in order to scale images accordingly.

If I'm not mistaken, RRT destroids are almost dead on scale to the older battletech counter parts. Let me see what I can come up with

Shouldn't be any more difficult than what you've already done. You just need the right images

Carful pal. You might attract the infamous white knight who will get your thread locked. :roll:
I've already seen one thread closed this morning. As to your question I don't see why not. Their both from PB so it's a non issue. :D

I think it is a matter of what do you mean by conversions?

If you mean Non Robotech Macross.......probably not here.

I was being facetious on purpose since I see some way overzealous people here. The fanbase could easily be doubled here in the forums with some attitude adjustment. Banning people and closing threads because of guessed at intentions or information gleaned from private emails is just stupid. Luckily I don't play RPG's anymore and have sold my Fantasy RPG and TMNT stuff. Only thing I have left are the Robotech Main Books and those are for nostalgia and reference purposes.

I'm amazed this thread hasn't devolved into a cluster $&%#. Maybe some of the white knights don't play RT... Soooo we have free reign! Yay!

Well in that case don't mention a certain someone's name cause he/she might show up and heaven help us if you utter the name 3 times.We'll all be thriced damed.lol Now I feel like coming up with some 40k inspired sobriquet for said individual. 8-)

I found a place that has some interesting conversions for Star Wars, trek, and even 40k. Here's the link... Oh you almost had me. Nope I'm not giving it away!
