About the adventure
Robotech is a space opera of grand scale, spanning 3 generations of characters across the 3 great 'Robotech Wars' of the 21st Century, as well as the 'Sentinel Wars' and later 'Shadow War' waged in a distant galaxy. This campaign is intended for anyone with an interest in space opera, Robotech or the Palladium game system. The campaign will begin in the Macross era and leverage 2nd and 1st edition books leaning into 2nd edition/RUE Palladium rules. Palladium is a 1980's/1990's system known for its simulationism aspects and vast 'megaverse' multi-game system. This campaign will focus on the early days and years of the First Robotech War, using the official, out of print adventure books.
