Hey, you got a better way to rebuild a species in a hurry? It makes perfect sense. And that DOES make sense? There were so many zentradi ships you couldn't see through the cloud. I'm suprised they weren't shooting EACH OTHER while bombarding the planet. The odds of any signifigant population of humans surviving were pretty slim. I know what the Compendium says... I don't think you're realizing how BIG the Earth actually is. The major population centers would surely be annihilated. But there's no reason for the Zentraedi to hit hardly anything in the middle of North Dakota or Siberia or North Korea, or the island of Maya, for example. Maybe the most major towns but outside of them? And sure we're talking about wiping out the majority of our population but EVERYTHING outside of the Grand Cannons? Nonsensical. If they were trying to exterminate, then biological weapons and/or the complete eradication of the surface is necessary (top kilometer), including oceans and all the uncounted little islands out there (Maya anyone?). But over FOUR million gigantic ships... Name four million cities, towns, villages plus collateral damage and humanity is near annihilated... The Grand Cannon did destroy a lot of them, but I doubt that it had took out more than 5% of all the nme ships. Bingo. They'd already SHOWN that a Zentradi fleet was capable of sterilizing a planet, reducing an Earth-type planet to something more along the lines of the moon. Sure some stuff lived, mainly in caves and the ocean, but most of the planet was reduced to a lunar landscape. Remember, what you see around the Grand Cannon after Hikaru rescues Misa is Middle-of-nowhere, Alaska. That used to be a nice thick blanket of snow before the attack, instead of a lunar landscape. And Alaska isn't very densely populated. It wouldn't have been a prime target(the Grand Cannon being undetected untill it fired).

In other words, it's bait to get more cash out of the target audience(horny teenagers going "D00d, it has boobies!1111"). ... Which is pretty much what I suspected when they slapped hte unrated label on it.

Well, at least you won't have any unwatned baby computers popping up. ... Sorry, bad joke.

If you don't want to pay, you can always find a cracked version.

None. Like the saying goes, a fool and his money are easily parted. Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools talk because they have to say something. -- Plato A rolling stone gathers no moss.

I thought the male/female division only applied to human/zentradi interbreeding. When 2 zentradi get it on, the results are still 50/50.

The Robotech RPG is known to contain errors relative to Robotech data too, though I've forgotten specifics.

I get the impression it's supposed to be realistic cloning, not traditional sci-fi cloning. Born a baby, no memories. Hey, you got a better way to rebuild a species in a hurry? It makes perfect sense. And that DOES make sense? There were so many zentradi ships you couldn't see through the cloud. I'm suprised they weren't shooting EACH OTHER while bombarding the planet. The odds of any signifigant population of humans surviving were pretty slim. According to Macross Compendium, the survivors were either off-planet or in well-fortified areas(namely the incomplete Grand Cannons). Which makes sense given the scale of the bombardment.

That'll learn me. And now I'm reminded of MC Hammer. DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU TO ... TO.... TO A WORLD WITH NOTHING BUT GUNDAM WING FOR ANIME!

Yes, missiles were in the arms. But the reaction warheads were launched from the railguns, not on missiles.
-
Chernobyl didn't go boom either. The reaction didn't go critical. The fuel rods are too far apart for that. It just got hot enough to melt the reactor open. They still operate the other reactors at the site to this day. They also had inside knowledge that most attackers wouldn't have.

I've seen Optimus. I want Optimus. Badly. I may be an irate whiney ex-fan, but there's still a little kid inside me jumping on my liver screaming "I WANNA TWANSFOMER! GIMME!"

I understood the meaning. It just sounds odd.

I've got decent fansubs of 2 episodes currently.

No kidding? *buys game so he can launch orbital assaults against the battlefield*

As I understand it, one of the problems with modern Transformers is they CAN'T use real-world vehicles, at least in America. If I recall, a few companies threatened lawsuits over Robots in Disguise if some details on the toys(like distinctive styles of headlights/taillights) weren't changed. The companies that make cars and trucks and things that go don't want to be associated with toys, and WILL sue over it. Hence the whole Beast Wars thing. I see Armada as a step forward. At least we HAVE vehicles again, even if they're silly vehicles. Of course, I haven't bought a Transformer in ages. Early Gen2. The whole resurrection thing came as I was deciding I'd outgrown my toys, and I haven't really gotten back into them yet. Little things like new He-Man's Battlecat(Guns on Battlecat? Errrr, no.) and PC Megatron(DAMMIT, HE'S A HANDGUN!) help me keep irate enough at them to avoid that money hole/trip down memory lane. ... Maybe I should thank them instead of ranting.

Seeing beam weaponry filed as "conventional weapons" is odd, to say the least.
-
Don't be silly. The New Jersey was named after the Macross.
-
One quibble... You cited the constructicons as an example. But they were originally a nasty shade of neon green. The Gen2 versions, while tiny and lower quality, were also Tonka Yellow, the standard for construction equipment toys.
-
Ah, skip it... Enter the YF-12. All the speed and style of a Blackbird, only with missiles
-
I don't have it, but I've been talking to someone that does. He had it crash on him twice. Bad sign. But that's been his only technical gripe. Other than that it's been nothing but glowing praise. ... On the other hand, he's never watched the movies(which the game assumes you've done), so he has no idea what's going on most of the time.
-
Well, yah, but still... A guy can dream. Speaking of which... A destroid team piloted by the Jenius daughters!

How about only if they DON'T bring the variable Monster?

Looks a lot like it's jumping back to me.

By US copyright law, they no longer have any legal recourse to take against Mac2 and Plus, regardless of what their contract with Tatsunoko may or may not say. If you ignore it, you lose it. Simple as that. And Yamato Lover: Why quote me? I wasn't making accusations, just offering a valid use for multiple accounts.
