Marines sourcebook

So the Marines sourcebook has been pushed back until March? (Probably later)

I thought it was supposed to be a 2014 release.

I for one have been wanting to start a new Rift-Tech game where the rifts erupt on Robotech Earth after the Battle of Reflex point and the Minion War spills into it. As a result, many humans (player characters) start exhibiting magical and psionic traits which didnt exist before (mostly Warlock, Mystic, Burster, Zapper, Psi-Tech type powers). Then, the Sentinels aliens come to Earth to help the micronians understand their new powers as the UEG fights off hordes of Devils and Demons while also searching for the SDF-3 and putting the Haydonite threat to rest.

Problem is, my idea of "RUE-like" versions of the Sentinels aliens are prolly different than what will actually be presented in the Marines book and I want continuity the players and myself can fall back on. This just delays that game till march.

2014 release? Try earlier. But things do seem to get pushed back/around as other projects come to light from other lines.

From what I understand, Marker submitted his manuscript and then was let go. Now Jackson is taking a run at it.

*Sigh* I so fondly remember the good ol' 1st edition, bad as it was, days when that first summer, WHAM! Basic Rules! WHAM! RDF Guide! WHAM! Zentraedi! All in under three months.
Now one of the essentials, the Spacecraft book, isn't even on the horizon.

Not entirely. I am making an assumption that "Alien species and allies" from the latest Weekly Update are the Sentinels Aliens. Aside the Zentraedi, Tirolians, and Invid, I really dont recall any other aliens in Robotech and those three mentioned were already covered in existing books. Although the Sentinels story arc in the first 3 episodes and the notes from Art of RT Bk 3 are now secondary canon, we know the Sentinels Aliens are part of the main continuity as they make an appearance in the Prelude to the Shadow Chronicles comic (which is canon) and L'Ron even has a speaking role. So putting all that together, I am 95% certain that the Sentinels aliens are the ones we will see (at the least).

But even back in March last year it stated that Jackson was writing it so that can't be the delay this time. I know it was delayed a while back, but for most of 2014, Kev was saying it was coming out this year, then it slipped to Jan, then Feb, now March.

I think they would get a lot less frustrated fans if they just stopped announcing release dates until the book was at the printer.

Now if I remember correctly wasn't the Robotech®: UEEF Marine Corps Sourcebook (first name used) first slated for release way back in 2008/2009.......

This has turned into a total joke, its now 2015 and once again the dates been moved to a March release, odds on bet, it will be moved again & again & again.....

Way to go guys.....

Why keep dangling the carrot.....

If you have had production problems just say so.....

If a writer up and leaves in the middle of a book tell us that etc etc.....

If its been delayed again, tell us why its been delayed......

Take it off the Latest News if necessary.

Don't post useless information in Latest News....

Wait if necessary, until you have something worthwhile and relevant to the release, then put it in the Latest News.

Enough said.....

Don't forget. Right before they let go of Jason Marker, he had turned in his manuscript.

Now - in the past, there was very little rewrites. But apparently with this last manuscript, someone deemed it unacceptable for publication and needed a massive rewrite.

Then they hired Irvin Jackson to do the work. From what I can tell, the manuscript was turned in as well. Kevin has also stated the same thing about Mr. Jackson's work.

I'm not a fan of New Generation and Genesis Pits. Even though I feel like these books go fairly decent with TSC. It goes better with 1e Robotech.

glitterboy2098 · Wed Feb 11, 2015 1:23 am

i preferred Mr. marker's style over Mr. jackson's. i liked the greater technical details scattered through, how he tried to include features capabilities for them beyond what we saw directly in the show.

Mr. jackson's work certainly was creative, but to me it lacked the more engaging elements of mr. marker's work.

i'm curious as to how the new writer's work will be.

Circumstances being what they are, I would actually say a release this year would be all but guaranteed... I'd almost be surprised if Harmony Gold weren't leaning on Kevin to get it kicked out the door already.

Why? This is Robotech's 30th Anniversary, and it's become something of an expectation in the entertainment industry that long running franchises trot out some kind of big new release to commemorate the big anniversaries. The creative staff needs something new to show off, and the Marines book is pretty much the only new thing they've got in the pipe for 2015. With Shadow Rising and Robotech Academy officially on effectively canceled ("on indefinite hiatus") for lack of a budget. and no signs of production planning from the proposed live action movie, the Marines book is all they've got on deck.

Palladium doesn't have that much clout, and one of Harmony Gold's main goals with RT2E (according to their powerpoints about it when it was first announced) was to make sure it conformed more closely to the official Robotech setting. With that as their goal, it's unlikely they'll let Palladium slip the metaphorical short leash.

My overall point is that is is good for the brand to get product out to the fans....it isn't like HG is pushing ahead with a new series or a add'l movies.

Absolutely right... but Robotech is Harmony Gold's brand, and after all the fuss and noise they made of what their licensees did back in the 90's, it's only natural they'd want to keep overall control of new developments. They certainly don't want to let Kevin and company write them into a corner or spoil the plot of the their next planned feature.

I think they'll lobby quite hard to get the Marines book out in 2015, though I would not dare hazard a guess as to what month. After jumping through all those hoops at Tatsunoko to get approval to use the MOSPEADA concept art, they're not gonna let the book get forgotten.

mech798 · Unread post by **mech798** » Mon Mar 16, 2015 4:57 am

Of course one problem with the Marine sourcebook, given how narrative tiny HG has made the setting, is that there isn't a lot to do with it. The old Sentinals, for all of its problems had scope. With the effective elimination of the sentinals from the currenlty published material, if not the official canon, what can you do as a marine? Deal with earth? There are no nations on earth to deal with-- in most places the population could be handled by a few cops, not marines.

Combat rogue zentraedi? All but gone.

in fact, just about anything but "Find our magic box before all of our mecha fall over and die" is deadended by canon. Granted, the genesis pits tried to come up with some good options, but fundamentally the new version of robotech is a pretty dry well with very little for many characters to do.

Eh... it didn't have THAT much more scope than we have now... there might've been a few more planets to play with, but the only real plot was "evil aliens [are invading/have invaded], sic 'em".

Well, considering that the RPG already made the UEDF aviators of the first war Marine aviators... there's technically a whole war for them to star in.

I do see your point about Earth, it's hard for the non-Invid living there to be much of a threat to powered exoskeleton-infantry with laser weapons when the average civilian seems to have weapons no more threatening than a Colt single-action Army revolver...

mech798 wrote:Combat rogue zentraedi? All but gone.

Harmony Gold understandably wants to de-emphasize ties to Macross after the Macross Saga era, because that material can't legally be used in new animation.

mech798 wrote:[...] fundamentally the new version of robotech is a pretty dry well with very little for many characters to do.

Sadly, there just isn't that much material for Palladium to work with if they want to keep it official... they basically ran out of the 100% official material halfway thru the New Gen book, but with no viable continuation of the series in 30 years there's a limit on what Palladium can do.

Well there is, presumably all the stuff that the REF has been doing for the last few decades.....all that 'non-stop warfare' and the like has to be against someone. So they could offer some new foes to fight. The Regent? Bits of the Masters Empire? Relic Zentradi fleets? Unaligned worlds? All are great options for new places to see, new people to meet, and new targets to shoot.

I figured I should get it since it's something that actually exists, and support the company to boot. Who knows how much longer the finalized copy will take. Sure, when that's released, I'll have effectively paid for the book twice, but I've got a soft spot for a company that tries and I've always had a special place for Palladium in my heart. The RPG, even with all its faults, is the only thing that has consistently help kept Robotech "alive" between the releases of new material from HG.

Some may see the preview release as a money grab, I see it as Palladium trying to serve us as best they can. Thank you.

Re: Games Workshop.

But no I really hope they get the book out and others. Still wish HG would give them a little slack with content, rpg's of existing IP's don't always follow it's source, especially shows or movies. (If they did I would defiantly start writing stuff myself.)
