Transformers

[eldargal]

I didn't get into Beast Wars but it can't have been any worse than G1 cartoon. I mean as much as I love it a lot of that is nostalgia, it is ridiculously cheesy and silly. Transformers: Prime is where it's at in terms of teevee adaptations.

I dislike the 3d esque overly cgi animation of beast wars

Again, pfft, my goggles are so rose-tinted as to be opaque :P

Its hardwork holding onto these rose tinted specs.

God ive got transformers from so many generations I had some G2 stuff, beast wars, beast machines, transformers robot in disguise, transformers armada. I stopped buying after that although still watched the tv shows. Australian Jetfire in cybertron was hilarious. But prime is by far the best show they have made recently and could have been such a long run. The high moon games are great though.

God god, why hasn't there been a miniatures game ?

The replacement show for Prime is in production now, hoping it builds on Primes success and lasts a lot longer. With more females...

There's a transformers cybertron risk.
Picked up a copy when the works were selling them off at about £7 each a couple of years ago. Still never played it.

Like this EG?

:P I've actually got a (very) rough draft lying around. It was mostly a test of the rules set I'm building, but the idea has potential to be pretty fun. Edit: In terms of variety of possible forces (Minicons to bigguns), all the weird fluff to pull weapon options out of, and the interesting flexibility in each unit having two forms. It seems most suited to either skirmish-level gameplay, or larger battles with squads of drone-y types filling out the army.

Lol, well they would fit in with Beast Hunters anyway. You know it is apparently canon that G1 and MLP are in the same universe?
