An excellent cinematic roleplay experience for those who want to recapture the action and majesty of the anime without being bogged down in numbers and stats. The system is easy to learn but complex enough to stay interesting for the length of a campaign. Homefront adds to the experience by delivering more to table to sink your teeth into. 10/10 would recommend.
The new book brings a host of new and interesting dynamics to the system, giving GMs and players all the tools required to play a game at any level- from a small band of survivors struggling against the Invid, to world shattering wars against The Robotech Masters.
The new content that has been created has been lovingly crafted by people who know the lore and want to expand it in ways never thought of before.
As a player that’s new to the system, but somewhat familiar with the setting, I’ve had a great time so far with the system and content. The rules, skills, and talents are easily understood and well thought-out, and easy for a new player like myself to get the hang of quickly. The new enemy units, vehicles, and weapons added are great. The ASC Highlander Tank and Cyclops Battloid in particular have been a blast to use.
This planet too strongly retains the Malignant spirit of the Robotech Masters. Whether one race or another emerges victorous is of little meaning. Such hatred can only breed more hatred. My child. This conflict will rage on from generation to generation. – The Regess
