I'm really looking forward to that book. We gotta have crits and mishaps on armor!!!! Also, let me voice an opinion. IF/WHEN you get to theater books, I'd pay an extra few bucks for a decent history of the period, and I'd LOVE to see a solid list of the vehicles in use by each army in the book...

I'm leaning towards using Hovels for my 20mm games. What's everybody else using?

I'm too scared of plastics. I've heard the horror stories of the paint cracking off and it would kill me. I bought some Valiants, and the plastic is perfect. Just like GW. HOWEVER, they are HUGE in height and girth! Super soldiers, maybe? Anyway, I'm going to pay the cash and swim back into...

Check out this site! http://www.plasticsoldierreview.com/Index.htm Nothing but great info on 1:72 scale plastic soldiers. Size comparisons and all.

Is this going to be in S&P, or it's own book, Matt? Also, I'd love to see more advanced armor rules with crits and such.

WaW handles tanks by seeing if they are hit, then killed with 2 rolls, correct? They also have hit points? How does ROE work? Hit locations and crits?

Aw, C'mon guys! This IS Mongoose. There WILL be a revised edition at some point! :D Maybe it will be color. I'd like to check out ROE, but at the price, WOW sounds like a better deal. They also sound pretty similar. Anyone have both that can give us a size up?

I'm happy people are intentionally looking for errors. With M's quality control issues, I can't buy until I see what the unofficical proof readers say, and see the fix. So, I'll get book 4 in about 2 or 3 months....

here's the pod-cast. It takes a little bit to open. Don't expect much, but what's said, says it all. http://www.rabbitcave.com/2d6feet/podcasts/Episode%2027.mp3 Yeah, I just can't get why the quality control has been so poor. Some great ideas come out of Mongoose, but so many failures of...

"trust us, they look better in person". Oh, sorry, that was Battlefield Evo. :D Sorry to say I was listening to a pod cast the other day about recent releases in RPG's, and the commentators refused to even talk about Mon goose due to all the quality issues. You would think someone would get...

So, has ANY of the books hit the streets without print issues? I feel bad for you Mega deal guys. Paying all that money and having to be editors too. I'll take my standard action. Sit back and wait for the problems get ironed out before I buy.... Seems like tey would make more cash without the...

I've never converted one system to another before. I want to run a Traveller game, but I don't think I want to use Mongoose's system, but I want their fluff. So, what's the best way to do that? Should I find a system I like for personal combat and skills, then use Mongoose Traveller for all...

I've seen talk about minis for the new Traveller, but not so much on tiles. I found some SWEET tile sets for the minis from Skeleton Key Games. http://www.skeletonkeygames.com/ They not only have modular ship plans, but they just released a HUGE factory world set that would be great for a...

I think you guys are hitting one of my biggest problems: T/E. It just seems clunky. I think it would be hard to track as well. It does, however, seem OK for skills. IF they change that OR give us a new combat system in Mercs, I'll buy.

I voted yes, but it's actually a maybe. I've never played Traveller, but would like to. Thing is, my group isn't too interested. So, not having ever owned the books, I might pick up the main book for the read, then look for a group IF it hooks me. The other reason it's a maybe, is I've...
