this is funny because Palladium has been producing the robotech rpg for decades.

right, but we're not talking about Palladium, who haven't made asshats out of themselves, we're talking about HG

Palladium have a reputation for being asshats too though.

The wargame is partially due to a guy writing a ruleset and approaching Palladium with it. See here for more info and downloadable beta rules.

Isnt there a fair use (err not a lawyer .. probably not he right term) clause in law that says if you do not defend your claim on an IP, it can decay?

that is correct, unfortunately for us, they keep defending it every time someone pops up with one of the unseen.

not sure, it would have to look like one of their robotech mechs of course, the giant swaztika on the front might make that connection a tad bit dubious but I'm not sure.

I would think the giant swastika would make it seem more reminiscent of HG's unfriendly attitude.

of course it's a joke, last I checked the paintjob didn't matter in reference to HG making a complaint against the unseen's or the solution would be incredibly simple ^.^

Harmony Gold will not licence the rights under any circumstances. Facing a litigious company by just saying screw it isn't worth it and won't happen until this all changes.

End of discussion. Move on already, dear God. Live without your precious Riflemans.

mayhaps you should just not read pages involving the unseen if you feel this way? Posts of this nature merely make you look pretentious. Not to mention the fact that the original topic has drifted well off the mark by this point anyhow
