Just so you know and a heads up the only company that has stock of any number to even match these orders is Miniature Market and they do not go thru a site like this, furthermore the listing says the product will be shipped from the vendor on Sept. 10th from the vendor, Palladium Books no longer has product stock.

scrappydooAre you one of the people who a while ago stated the Magic the Gathering 4th set might not be authentic? Some have questioned the authenticity of this sites suppliers on certain items. I could have swore that was you.

zerosdeathwould have no clue what you are talking about, this is the first time I've been to massdrop and it was only about this game, but after finding out it was not stock from Miniature Market then I did a little more digging, then you have Red Duke which despite his protestations of such he has done contract work and such with Palladium and this stock here is coming from questionable sources to say the least.

scrappydoo" Zero, Why would I intentionally put a target on my back? Because there are people who think they know what happened(see above) And if I stated that I was associated with palladium and with the game rules, I would get blasted by trolls and people who believe what they read on the internet. I don’t need to get into another argument with a troll or PB hater. I know what I know, about everything that happened with the KS, beyond Any NDA or anything that’s ever been posted. All I ever wanted was a Robotech Tabletop game, to a degree that happened, and l’m grateful to PB for that. But having people say that PB was at fault when I know what actually happened makes me not speak up too often "
I find it interesting that we now have some accounts that have zero history on Massdrop are now popping up saying this game is maligned, and how great the components are. I wonder about these other accounts.

zerosdeathwell same could be said of me since my interest in this game is the only reason I came to this site.

zerosdeathDon't get me wrong i'm not saying anyone will rip off anyone here or such, but there are those who would rather not give Palladium a single penny and doing this massdrop might lead to that, but whether one goes into this massdrop or not is on them, as to Thomas (Red Duke) Roache, the fact he had to keep himself hidden or even bother to defend a game that is dead, is no longer supported or produced begs one to ask why? and the fact he is defending it here on this massdrop pretty much answers the question.

scrappydooThat the point of my comments earlier. I like the movie Dumb And Dumber. I will defend it because I like it. However, I no association with that movie, nor am I peddling any wares for that movie. I don't think anyone is getting ripped of per se, but it seems disingenous. Also, the not disclosing who who works for/with is what killed this game, and his credibility in my eyes. I just want consumers like myself, to be informed.

zerosdeathyes but will you hunt out some obscure site where the movie dumb and dumber is being sold and defend it? also why isn't he defending the game on some of those other sites which have had comments about the game and not Palladium ?

zerosdeath Zero... Please stop you are trying to label me as the bad guy.. All I did was to Try to make a Robotech Tabletop Game a reality, work towards that end.. then have it fail. A game was made and half the miniatures were produced leading to, some would say, an unbalanced game. I walked away. I took my toys and played the game with what I had and looked for deals to get more. I go to this site and say that I enjoy the game for reasons to get more people to play and possibly build a community as any decent gamer should, and get slammed by you, who is giving out false information, false accusations and half truths about me and others. I saw the deal for the game, stated that I enjoyed the game and gave my impression of how I thought the miniature quality was. I HAVE NO FURTHER IMPACT TO THE GAME OR ITS MANUFACTURING OR THE SELLING OF ANY SOURCES OF STOCK! I am a gamer and I tried to support my comment as an UNBIASED and concerned gamer. I am also someone who plays the game, who just so happened to have two Massdrop accounts because I like looking for deals on games and I logged into Massdrop 6 years ago. So zero, Stop acting like a troll and making up this huge conspiracy that isn't there. You seriously, really, REALLY DO NOT KNOW the whole story. The true facts will remain unknown because I was respectfully asked to keep them hidden.

RedDukeThomas, I didn't know having an opinion makes me a troll. We live in a world where a person can have an opinion. If you think I am a troll, that is your right. Just like you cannot take the right to my opinion. It is what I think. Again, what I do not appreciate and find very disingenuous is you not from the start letting us know your associations with the game. I have stated my opinions, and have let others know my opinion. I have no need to continue further discussion with you. I am sorry that you feel like I am a troll, or if I have offended you. What I have said may be conjecture, but it seems odd based off what I have in front of me.
Also, you made a mistake of assuming everyone was going to come down on you before the fact. You do understand had you stated your association from the beginning, all of this conjecture would have been avoided. However, I need to take a step back as I write this, and try to be understanding of what must be going on in your head. I can't imagine what it must be like to work on a game so hard, and have it fail. So, on that note, I am sorry it didn't work out. I am sure you must be frustrated with all of this, but calling a troll simply because you are frustrated is not fair. I get to have my opinion as do you. I respect your opinion, but name calling is childish.
Take a step back, relax, and try to be understanding of everyone's perspective. I have no proof of what I said sure, but your initial dishonesty was wrong. Everyone is free to take it as it is. I honestly wish you the best. Some may enjoy this game, and to those who do, great! You now may even have others who can enjoy your vision. Good day.

zerosdeathSigh.... Sorry to have hurt your feelings. I didn't call you a troll, I stated you were acting like one. Again, facts... As for my "mistake", you have proved my point and my reasoning. What I stated did not create conjecture; I stated an opinion and my results on a subject and moved on, which You did not. Please stop typing at me and trying to goad me further. If someone has a perspective on things I would expect them to state it and not have you champion one for them. I guess my sensitivity training is not working well today. Sorry As for others wanting to play the game after this wall of text.. that may be moot. If you want to try the game or play it great! Good day to you sir!

RedDukeThe problem with this part Thomas " You seriously, really, REALLY DO NOT KNOW the whole story. The true facts will remain unknown because I was respectfully asked to keep them hidden. " that is more of a slap in peoples faces, its like saying I know something but can't tell you, but as to your true facts I wouldn't go there, mainly cause I am not beholden to a NDA or any promise, so like I said don't go there.

scrappydooOn a side note, do you have any recommendations of minis assembly kits.? I am not looking to paint, but want to assemble some GW minis, and Shadows of Brimstone . I see GW cutters, glues, Etc are VERY expensive!
