by the fans for the fans

ROBOTECH CODEX IS A SECTION THAT WILL BE PREVIEWED IN THE ROBOTECH ANTHOLOGY www.robotechanthology.com THAT WILL HAVE A GUIDE TO ROBOTECH AND ALL ABOUT ROBOTECH, TIME LINE, BOOKS, RPG"S, THE SERRIES, CHARACTERS, TECHNICAL DATA, TERMINOLOGY, EVENTS, WORLDS, COMICS AND ANY INFO COLLECTED FROM FANS AND OFFICIAL HG INFOPIDIA.

THIS POST IS SO WE CAN DEBATE ABOUT THE TIME LINE FOR ROBOTECH FROM THE BEGGINING TO PRESENT USING ALL INFO OUT THERE THAT PERTAINS TO ROBOTECH MECHA, SHIPS,VEHICLES, TECHNOLOGY. THROUGH THE USE OF INFO FROM THE BOOKS, RPG, SERIES, COMICS, AND RT SITE.


ANY FAN CAN HELP WITH INFO AND HOPE TO PREVIEW BEFORE FINAL PRINT. FINAL PRINT WILL HAVE EXCLUSIVE ART AND UPGRADE FROM WHAT WILL BE SHOWN HERE.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP


RULES (RULES CAN BE FLEXIBLE AS WE PROGRESS)
1.START FROM CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER OF THE ROBOTECH TIME LINE. INCLUDING PRE T.V.SERIES. EXAMPLES ROBOTECH COMIC ZERO, ROBOTECH GHRAPIC NOVEL.

GREAT AND WONDERFUL NEWS!
LONG LIVE ROBOTECH!!!

MEMO, try going through the former THE ROBOTECH PAGE. There's tons of useful info like Jac Mckinney's RT timeline available & various RT glossaries & terminologies.

BTW, I might be able to assist you in this endeavour. However, rather in printed format (which is under HG realm), why don't you make this project as part of RTX feature, making the RT CODEX as some sort of new uRRG attached to RTX (kinda like Infopedia to RT.com) & try to not be too strict on CANON RT-verse, just use the RobotechResearch.com approach in regards to mechas so that any RT fans (especially the RT RPGers) to enjoy the codex.

However, the general rule of thumb is no usage of mecha from canon Macross derivatives like Mac 7, Mac Plus, Mac 0, Mac II & Mac F.

On Mac DYRL designs, that's up for you to decide. The pre-production arts from Mospeada & SC are definitely thumbs up!

SORRY ALL

BEEN WORKING ON THIS OFFLINE WITH OTHER MEMBERS HERE. GOING OVER WHAT WE WANT AND HOW TO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER. I HAVE BEEN GETTING GOOD HELP AND RESPONSES FROM FANS ALL OVER. DARTILLION, ISAMU, ALOIS, SIGHUP, SOME OF THE GUYS FROM THE RRG SITE, BROOK, AND BEEN ON THE PHONE WITH SOME OF THEM AND JUST FLUSHING OUT WEB DESIGN IDEAS, PLACEMENT, TIMELINE AND CHRONOLOGY, ETC. ETC.

YEAH, I CALL EVERYONE LIKE ARGENTINA, CHILE, HERE IN THE STATES, MAV IN CANADA, MEXICO. AND OTHER FANS THAT CAN DO CUT OUTS OF DESIGNS. (CAN'T SHOW THIS YET)

*PLUG*
AND THANKS TO METROPCS (CRICKET)FOR 45 BUCKS AND 5DLRS EXTRA, UNLIMITED CALLING ANYTIME, UNLIMITED TEXING, BROWSING, UNLIMITED INTERNATIONAL CALLING AND TEXTING FOR 45 BUCKS. SAD THING IS NOT 3G.

THIS IS A LOT OF WORK AND WANT TO WORK ON TREATMENTS BEFORE I JUMP AND ASK SIGH TO START HELPING WITH PUTTING ON RTX. WE WENT THROUGH FEW DESIGNS AND WORK FOR RTX AND THATS BEFORE SIGH JUMPED ON BOARD AND I AM DOING THE SAME THING WITH THIS.

WE HAVE AN IDEA FOR THE PAGE LAYOUT. ISAMU CAME UP WITH COOL LAYOUTS AND YOU CAN SEE A PART OF THAT IN THE FRONT PAGE WITH THE HONEYCOMB DESIGNS. AND THAT WAS JUST THE FIRST DRAFT!

BTW, I might be able to assist you in this endeavour. However, rather in printed format (which is under HG realm)

ANYTHING IS GOOD. WE INCORPORATING A SYSTEM WHERE WE CAN DESIGNATE BY COLOR AS WELL WHERE THE SOURCE OR INFO IS FROM AND WHAT IT PERTAINS TO THE STORY. SERIES, COMICS, NOVELS, RT.COM, ORIGINAL CREDIT, AND SOURCE. THERE ARE MACROSS SITES WITH TONS OF INFO WE CAN JUST LINK FANS TO THEM IF THEY WANT TO DIVE DEEPER INTO OSM (ORIGINAL SOURCE MATERIAL). AS WELL AS LINKS TO THIS SITE WHERE FANS CAN DISCUSS AND ASK FOR A CHANGE OR QUESTION A PROBLEM THAT IS SEEN.

why don't you make this project as part of RTX feature, making the RT CODEX as some sort of new uRRG attached to RTX (kinda like Infopedia to RT.com) & try to not be too strict on CANON RT-verse, just use the RobotechResearch.com approach in regards to mechas so that any RT fans (especially the RT RPGers) to enjoy the codex.

THAT'S THE IDEA!

ONE OF THE REASONS WE MOVED TO A BIGGER SERVER. ONCE THAT THINKS GET WORKING WE WILL AD MUCH OF WHAT IS NEEDED FOR THE FAN. THANKS AS WELL TO YOUTUBE AND HULU, NOW ROBOTECH FANS CAN DO FAST REASERCH.

ON THE COLOR REFERENCE, I WAS TOLD THAT SOMEONE HAD WORKED ON THAT IDEA BEFORE IN A DRAGONBALL FANDOM SITE AND HAS BEEN TAKEN DOWN SINCE.

HE KNEW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT AND HOW I WANTED TO SEPARATE DIFFERENT UNIVERSES BY IT BUT HE DID NOT FIND THE SITE AGAIN SO I COULD CHECK IT OUT.

SINCE THE GREAT WARS OF THE RDFHQ AND MACROSS TO EVEN RT.COM (THOSE WERE THE DAYS)..

WHAT REFERENCES ARE OUT THERE (ROBOTECH) THAT YOU LIKE TO SEARCH FOR INFO? I ASK BECAUSE SINCE WE GOING TO BE WORKING ON OUR OWN INFOPIDIA(ROBOTECH CODEX) FOR RTX, FANS WOULD LIKE HELP MAYBE WANT TO LOOK INTO CERTAIN PAGES FOR INFO.

Let me see, you can contact Basara (Stan Bundy), RT surfer & Cavscout @ RDF-HQ, they're the most knowleagable RT fans that I know of.

Then Sgt Anjay & Brooklyn Red Leg (of RDF-HQ, Palladium RT Board) that are most knowleadgable regarding SCA. Ahhh, Jeffar, a mod from Palladium RT HQ can even contribute!

You need to contact Dr Kenneth Olson of RT Research & Pieter Thomasses of uRRG to use reference from their site.

As of useful RT websites, I humbly suggest:

1. [url=http://http://www.therobotechpage.com/]The Robotech Page[/url]

2. The Robotech RPG

3. Steelfalcon consisted of:
-> Third Invid War
-> Macross Mecha Design
-> SC Mecha Garland

4. VISIONS OF ROBOTECH consisting of:
- RANKS OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE WORLD GOVERNMENT
- ORGANISATION OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE WORLD GOVERNMENT
- RANK INSIGNIA OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE WORLD GOVERNMENT
- HONOURS AND AWARDS OF THE WORLD GOVERNMENT
- FLAGS OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE WORLD GOVERNMENT
- THE TECHIE'S GLOSSARY
- APPENDICES

5. Cheethorne's Robotech Design Factory

These ARE the definitive RT sites that you can referenced for RT CODEX alongside uRRG & RT Research.

Good luck!

Ahh well, there's tons of resources (fanmade) from Palladium RT Board.

One would be the infamous Taffy's School of Armored Warfare series of essays.

Special attention to Robotech recruits. Herewith enforced the required readings for the Cadet Officers & would be NCOs for final semester in Robotech Military Academy. Please be reminded that this readings are COMPULSORY in order to pass the Cadet Officer evaluation tactical exam slated at the end of this semester. If you failed to grasp basic tactical Armored Warfare, you'll be transferred to Robotech Waste Disposal Dept or posted to far-flung godforsaken colonies tending to space cucumber agro-plant. If you score below average, you'll be joining either Marines or Army Cyclone squads, while those that scored with average results may joined to be next generation Destroid jockeys. Those with good results have good options either to become hardcore hovertankers, or Veritech pilot jockeys, or simply space naval officers!

Colonel Taffy (ret) will be monitoring your progress!

Another infamous thread also are from Jeffar's SOVIET STUDIES thread.

Yes, you UEDF schmucks! The braggarts who claimed they won single handedly the wars against the Zentraedi! Capitalist fools the lot of you! Even micronised Zentraedi realised the beauty of Neo Socialist Regime! UEG is nothing more than a another neo-colonialism tools to crushed our newly borne independent spirits!

Come & joined the good fight against the capitalist UEG & their nincompoop UEDF! To be a good neo-Marxist, you're required to undergo heavy reading by Comrade Jeffar, the EBSIS Propaganda Official on board! Come on Zentraedi malcontents, rogues nations, mercenaries .... joined the leader of Anti-Unification League to stem the UEG tide!

Now be a good Commie boy, read thru' your lessons to become conscript soldiers for EBSIS!
