A while ago I mentioned running A2089 for a few people in my regular group. Though due to various things that didn't come to pass, but after one of the people who I'd mentioned it to brought it up the other day, and as w're running out of things to play at the moment, I've been mulling over...

Been a while since someone last asked after this book. :) I think it just got lost somewhere in that special little place where unreleased RPG publications go. Last time anyone brought it up, I sent a polite email to Mystic Eye asking if there was any information available, and said email also...

I think it was probably more a case of the person who created the group closing it. Though it is possible that it got Yahooed. Apparently it all happened sometime between now and early January, as that's the date on the last email I got from the group. Guess I just wasn't paying much attention...

By that logic, almost every other D20 based game out there should be suffering form the same fate. Heck, D&D itself should be suffering, as the GM has to carry three books about most of the time. But this isn't the case with some systems, so it cna't be that big a factor. Its a shame to see the...

Uhm, Götterfunke, if you actually take a look at the link in the original post, you might notice that the date says pre-orders for february and march of 2003. So it's more than a little out of date. After reading the original post, I wenyt and had another look at the MEG site, still nothing...

This was supposed to be Mystic Eye Games' first book produced for A2089 under the partnership, or some such, with Mongoose. There's a preview of what was supposed to be in said book in S&P 1, along with a bit of text saying that it was going to be out the month after the magazine was printed...

Well, there are both pros and cons when it comes to the whole metal/plastic debate about figures. Though from what ittle I've been able to pick up as a member of the general public, the moulds for plastic figures tend to cost a lot more than the moulds for a metal figure would do. Which is why...

Been holding off on posting to this thread, given that I don't have all of the supplements yet. I still have to get hold of the tank book and the infantry book. However, out of those that I do have, which is all the others, the decision isn't that easy anymore. Before, I'd have said...

There in lies one of the major issues people have with the random packs of figures. People like to be able to choose what to spend their money on. Sure, it can be fun at times to pick one up and see what you get, the smae with buying boosters for CCGs, but its not something you want to do that...

I'd have thought that most meks would count as sealed vehicles, for this purpose, because they're fully enclosed. Take cars for example, with the windows up and all the doors closed, there's a fairly noticable difference in volume levels of sounds coming form the outside. But they generally...

I can convert something into pdf format, as I have access to some decent software to do it, but I don't really have the time at the moment to make the sheets myself. So if anyone wants to make one as a word document, and have me convert it, just drop me a private message. As for the YahooGroups...

Well a C130 can carry 19 metric tonnes of equipment, rgouhly half the Bombard. It can also carry, in place of pure cargo, 92 combat ready troops or 64 fully equipped paratroopers. So the easiest thing to would be double those figures. As for carrying tanks or meks, you're not going to get that...

That's not what the question was asking. Roldar was after a formula for allocating exp, rather than the level table that's in the front of the phb. There aren't really any hard and fast rules for alocating exp, there's certainly nothing like the tables you get in the DMG for alocating exp based...

Well, its been quite some time since we heard anything from Mongoose on this, and I've given up checking the MEG website for any possible details. So, either way, it would be nice to hear something official on this.

They might be developing new Warmeks, but that doesn't mean they're developing new technologies to put inside them. The two aren't linked that closely, as not every single new mek design has to have something brand-spanking-new in it. Many of them will just have slightly different hard/software...
