I was going through older rifters today and noticed an ad for a dimension book that seems to have never been made.
Has anyone ever heard of the dimension book the Grand Paladins?
any info would be cool.

No, but I would be very curious to know what was intended to be in it.

I'd be curious what year the catalog was from? I remember it vagely in the past.
"Your Grace," she said, "I have only one question. Do you wish this man crippled or dead?"

"My Lady," the protector of Grayson told his Champion, "I do not wish him to leave this chamber alive."

"As you will it, your Grace."

It was a proposed setting for an alternate Dimension. The author has never finished it. I got to play in his game at the 07 Open House. The setting seems really neat. The author post under the name, "Grand Paladin", mostly in the Robotech Forums.

I hope he finishes it some day.

That makes sense! I've seen him posts. Did he give any reasons for not finishing it?

That is too bad. Maybe someday he'll come back to it and finish it. Or else pass it off to someone who would finish it for him.

Not to mention the ones that don't get cancelled, they just never quite get made. Was it 1992 or 1994 that Palladium first started talking about Mechanoid Space as an upcoming release?

Carl said that is his next project he'll be working on. And someone said fairly recently that they are working on Underseas 2. I'm sure we'll also see China 3 eventually. Even if PB has to produce it from notes.

I'm hoping we get this book along with all of the others that they are planning on releasing. The more for us GM's the better.
