Other's stuff I updated

These are things from other sources, that I adapted from the originals having "issues". And, some of them are just downright rare.

Mecha From The Magic of Palladium Books, and related items

There were two mecha in The Magic of Palladium Books; the MR-02 Protector (references to which were accidentally left in the Southern Cross book), and the fan-original LRV-558 (which later got butchered further into the LRV-588 in Strike Force).

As with many of Palladium's early items, the stats introduced more issues than answers. The following are tweaked versions of them, plus one of my variants of the MR-02 (the MR-03 Rapier, included in the MR-02 PDF).

Also included is another fan attempt to create the MR-02 ca, 1995 in Australia, the fans not realizing that the missing mecha had actually been printed in MoPB #2 4-5 years earlier. I took their stats, revamped the background they gave it, and renamed it the MR-04 Durendal. It's still mostly their design, though (and their art).

Adaptations of Protoculture Addicts RPG material

The first ten issues of the long-running anime fanzine "Protoculture Addicts" was actually an official Robotech fanzine - hence the name. There were a number of articles for the RPG in that period - some of which were never completed, others seriously flawed.

This section is for my revised versions of many of them (not all - some were too bad to even attempt to fix).

Robotech Space Mass Combat

This article appeared in a rare magazine called "Far & Away". It was from the same publishing house as the second volume of Animag, and the magazines probably died together when the publisher died. As far as I know, only two issues were ever printed.

One thing about this article - it HEAVILY steals concepts from one of the Star Trek games - Either the FASA Star Trek Tactical space combat game, or Task Force Games' Star Fleet Battles (which themselves had a number of commonalities between them). So, theoretically, this article could have gotten the original publisher sued by HG and THREE different game companies.

I also had to create a stat block for one of the ship types (The SDFs), after it was accidentally left out of the article. But, now, I can't find it. If I can track it down, I'll add it.

Steelfalcon.com Material

In the 1990s, David Deitrich, Chris Meadows, and others produced a huge volume of material for Palladium-based mecha games.

Most famous was David's Macross Mecha Designs, which converted items from Macross Plus and Macross 7 (and some related video games) for use in people's Robotech (including using the system to play a Macross game), Robotech II: The Sentinels, and Macross II RPG games (or as lost travelers stranded on Rifts Earth).
Then there was the Third Invid War setting, created by the two and others, involving large amounts of fanfic and fan art.
Associated with TIW, but also meant to stand alone as a supplement for the Southern Cross era, Chris also converted the Megazone 23 Garland mecha (that appeared in the ill-fated Robotech: The Untold Story movie (made from Megazone 23) of the mid-80s, that never made it past test markets).

With Chris' unfortunate passing in October 2020 (age 47, from a hit-and-run driver), I'm making rough conversions of captures of the old web pages (made by another friend) into PDFs. First up will by Chris' Garland write-up.

Nuclear War Card Game Supplemental Material

These files are a combined rules set for the Nuclear War games (Nuclear War, Nuclear Escalation, Nuclear Proliferation, and their add-ons) when the sets are combined, as well as replacement playmats from Nuclear Proliferation and Bonus Pack #1, to print out if you've lost or ruined yours.

By downloading the latter, you are agreeing that you own the originals and are downloading these to print replacements (otherwise, buy Proliferation and the Bonus Pack). Suggest that you mix different color paper (and a higher bond weight paper at that) to print these so that you get 4-8 (or more) different colors for the sheets (and remember to print 1-sided only). I personally used 48-60 pound paper of 6 different colors (and maybe even heavier paper) for my reprints (you can usually find packs of 5-color heavy paper for sale cheap during the back to school sales at Office Depot/Office Max & Staples, and they have all kinds of gaming uses).
