What's left?
So, hardcore Robotech fans, what mecha, vehicles, spacecraft and other goodies have we not seen make it to the RPG?

The Orguss veritech, and the VF-4. Both appear to the 'classified' UEDF mecha in the kickstarter.

Barring stuff that may not officially exist in RT (like the "Orguss Valkyrie", for copyright reasons), and stuff that's impossible for Palladium to cover officially (the SDF-2), there's the VF-X-4/YF-4 from From the Stars, the SDF-3 (it'd be nice to print the other RTSC ships in a book other than the deluxe edition), the "Triumviroid" from the Masters Saga (IIRC), the ships that the Robotech Masters used, and the remaining Zentradi ships earmarked for the canceled Ships book.
Other than that, we've pretty much exhausted the contents of the official Robotech universe.
EDIT: Oh, and the Regent's ship from Prelude.

Also the unidentified fighters and spacecraft seen in flashback/flash-scenes from New Generation('Wolff's fighter', sundry spacecraft seen blowing up in the background).

Re: What's left?
for the RPG?
the fighter's we see launched from Carpenter's Ship in Southern Cross for one.
the VF-x-4 was a failed prototype, and the 'orguss' was an injoke that may or may not be worth opening the Orguss IP can of worms over..
i'm not sure what is left from the show proper.. other than various starships;
Tokugawa class
'Battle' class
'Banshee' class
zent 'cyclops' reconship
Zent scoutship
Zent gunship
zent landingship
tirolian landingship
tirolian warship

Re: What's left?
The Cyclops is in the 2E Macross era book.
The only reason I mentioned the Orguss and VF-4 is because they both appear to be part of the RPG tactics game. This means they have probably been approved by HG to use.

Did someone decide how many Battle Pods a Re-entry pod can transport?

Re: What's left?
TMS:
-"Orgus" Battloid (Veritech or Destroid)
-"mini-destroids" (likely an AE, but potential exists using them as 10ft PA)
-some of the fighters in the air show
-the tank seen in FoA
TRM:
-Carpenter's Fighter
-what those 3 barrel cannon arrays are from "Half-Moon" the ASC uses
-"Spheroid" the Masters use in testing the 3-act-1 concept
-maybe a correct version of the "Pupil Pistol" (NG SB did not get it right based on it's description in the book vs Dialogue)
NG:
-Wolfe Flash back Fighter
-a few conventional vehicles (Wolfe's jeep, some of the flashback armored vehicles)
-Maxwell's Drones
-Condor's Booster Pack (take a look at the slide it appears in the show, it has a booster pack not covered)
-Invid retrieval pod (?)
Sent/New Comics:
-Phantom EVA pod version (Sent OVA, it has arms)
-Invid Inorganics
-"Tiger" Mecha in opening panel of L&W.
If we are hitting up prototypes mentioned in the RPG:
-VF-X-4 though 7
-XV/H-1 Pure Helicopter (related to the AGAC unclear if it had a prototype or just a paper plane)
-the two early Cyclone Series prototypes (-01x/02x series)
-if the UEDF/UEEF practice is not to have # gaps in certain mecha types/families, then several mecha due to their numbering scheme leave open several additional candidates (VF-2/3, VM-1-8, several ASC PA, Battloids/Destroids) that may have been slated for production, but canceled or just never selected.
@glitterboy
The Tirolian Landing ship is in the 2E RPG already in the Masters SB (between the Cityship and Assault Carrier entries). It would only need to be covered for deckplans, but then one could list a lot of ships for that already in print.

Re: What's left?
IF HG allows it then there should be some transitionary mecha for the ground units as well. How did we get to Battloids? Are there intermidiary Destroid/Battloids/PA?
I am very opinionated. Yes I rub people the wrong way but at the end of the day I just enjoy good hard discussion and will gladly walk away agreeing to not agree
