VERITECHS

Logan Veritech

The Logan's full name is VF-3A Logan
The Logan's MDC values should read as:

	Main Body- 100

(and that was being generous)
Maximum speed is Mach 2.3 in fighter mode, and mach 1 in guardian mode. Fully suited for space operations, but incapable of re-entry.
The RPG's shoulder lasers are actuality space manoeuvring verniers.

Hand to Hand Combat

Punch: 1D6
Kick: 1D8
Body Block/Tackle: 2D6 + Knockdown (Two attacks)

Punch: 2D6
Kick: 2D4
Throw: 2D6 + target loses 1 attack/melee
Body Block/Tackle: 2D8 + Knockdown (Two attacks)

The AJACS did not become available until about a year into the war. (Episode #50 Triumvirate).

Veritech Hovertank

The mecha's full name is VHT-1A Hovertank
The vast majority of hovertanks have a 120mm smoothbore cannon, and not an Ion cannon. However, some do have the Ion Cannon, which became more common as the war went on. (This is the same 120mm cannon as found on the M-21 Anaconda MBT).

• Purpose: Assault/Artillery
• Range: 5.6 km
• Mega-Damage: 2D6 x 10 MD
• Rate of Fire: Twice per turn maximum.
• Payload: 30 shots. An additional 30 may be carried in the other arm shield, but reloading takes one attack/action.

The Autocannon is actually a plasma cannon. It has the same statistics, but has an unlimited payload. It can be used in Battloid mode.

Restrained punch: 1D6
Punch: 2D8
Full-Strength punch: 3D6
Kick: 2D8
Throw: 2D4 + target loses 1 attack/melee

ASC Battloids

GMP Multipurpose Battloid

This mecha was mis-identified by the RPG's writers as a GMP Battloid. It is, infact, the TC-REP Monocle Battloid. See the conversion for more details. (In this case, the confusion is semi-explicable). The stats for this mecha in the RPG Book sould be disregarded.

TC Recon Battloid

This mecha was mis-identified by the RPG's writers as a Light Reconnisance Battloid. It is, infact, the Officer's model of the TC Salamander Battloid. See the conversion for more details. The stats for this mecha in the RPG Book sould be disregarded. (Ok... so maybe I should go easy on them on this one. They at least got it in the right army....).

CU Space Battloid

This mecha was mis-identified by the RPG's writers as a Space Battloid. It is, infact, the TC-CoS Fenris Power Armour (Ha! Wrong on all three accounts!). See the conversion for more details. The stats for this mecha in the RPG Book sould be disregarded.

CDC Heavy Battloid

This mecha was mis-identified by the RPG's writers as a CDC Battloid. It is, infact, the Non-Commissioned Oficer's version of the TC Salamander Battloid. See the conversion for more details. The stats for this mecha in the RPG Book sould be disregarded.

CDC Light Battloid.

This mecha was mis-identified by the RPG's writers as a CDC Battloid. It is, infact, the Enlisted Soldier's version of the TC Salamander Battloid. See the conversion for more details. The stats for this mecha in the RPG Book sould be disregarded. (I mean... for cryin' out loud! They decided that three near-identical variants of the same mecha sould all be seperate mecha... what was Kev on at the time?).

GMP Security Robot

The RPG's stas for this mecha were found to be bug-ridden and inisufficient. A full write-up of this mecha is avalible. See the conversion for more details. The stats for this mecha in the RPG Book sould be disregarded.

EBSIS Battloids

As these mecha do not exist, their stats should be completely disregarded.

The EBSIS Battloids were based on varous Southern Cross mecha designs- the NAD Kraken for the Soldier, the CDC Unicorn for the Juggernaut and the TC-MoS Satyros for the Recon Destroyer. The Mercantile Republic Protector Battloid from Magic of Palladium Books #3 and reprinted in was based on the TC-DeS Djinn.

Aircraft and Ground Vehciles

Full name of this vehcile is a F-27B Spectre
This vehicle is Protoculture Powered.
This fighter uses Long-Range missiles, not medium range.

Full name of this vehcile is a F-26A Phantom III
This vehicle is Protoculture Powered.

Full name of this vehcile is a SF-7A Corsair IV
This vehicle is Protoculture Powered. It has a delta-v capacity of 4.5 kps.
Dimensions should read as:

Length: 20.1m
Width: 21.5m
Height: 10m
Weight: 35.7t

Missiles are long range, not medium range.

Full name of this vehcile is a EV-16A Bumblebee
This vehicle is protoculture powered.
It is armed with a single 25mm Cannon

• Purpose: Defence
• Range: 1200m
• Mega-Damage: 2D4 MD for a short burst, 4D4 MD for a long burst, 6D4 MD for a full melee burst.
• Rate of Fire: Equal to the total hand-to-hand attacks of the pilot.
• Payload: 100 rounds - a short burst uses up 5 rounds and a long burst uses 10 and a full melee burst uses 20.

Full name of this vehcile is a M-9 Inca AFV
This vehicle is Protoculture Powered.
This vehicle carries only ten troops.
Replace the weapons in the RPG book with a single pulse laser.

• Purpose: Assault
• Range: 1800m
• Mega-Damage: 4D6 MD
• Rate of Fire: Equal to the total hand-to-hand attacks of the pilot.
• Payload: Unlimited.

This vehicle’s cargo capacity would be closer to 20 tons or 20 troops.

The RPG books have somewhat overstated the Hovercycle's damage capacity. For a more accurate representation, use the following values: Headlight- 40 SDC, Front Hover Jet- 5 MDC, Rear Hover Jets (2)- 6 MDC, Main Body- 15 MDC

The Miscellaneous Human vehicles from the Sentinels RPG book are also used by the ASC.

ASC Spacecraft

The RPG's "space shuttles" actually represent six different ships (three shuttles and three spacecraft) seen in the series, none of which were adequately covered by the RPG. See the conversions for more details.

Armour and Weapons

A Heavy combat shield has an MDC of 50, a light combat shield 20, Space shield 40 and searchlight shield 30.
The armour weighs a total of 11 kilos, including helmet. Except for the armour of the TASC, TSC, HC-MaS and NAD, It is NOT normally environmentally sealed, but can be with a special suit worn underneath the armour.
The GMP officers use a variation of the Light combat shield with a Vibroblade stored in the upper half of it. The blade itself weighs approx 0.75kg, and does 4D6 SDC damage (Plus PS bonus, if any). This blade is standard issued to officers the GMP ONLY. Owning one is highly illegal.

There is apparently either Only one triumvirate of masters (Shaizian, Dag and Bowkaz from the series). The other ships are commanded by Clonemasters

Are more commonly known as Muses or Muse Clones. It is apparent that they only had one harp & one Triumvirate of these people in the entire fleet. NB: Musika's name is actually spelt Musica.

Tryolian is actually spelt Tirolian. Ditto Tryol is actually spelt Tirol. Likewise, Tirol is the moon of Fantoma, not the other way around, as stated by the RPG book.

As there appears to be no such thing as the "Worker Bioroid" any more, (see below for details and reasoning.) there is little reason for the existance of the Stage One Clone. Second Stage Clones pilot all Standard Combat (Blue) Bioroids and 60% of the Standard Combat (Green) Bioroids. The Third Stage Pilots ioperate the reaminging Green Bioroids and the Invid Fighter Bioroids.

THE ROBOTECH MASTERS MECHA

Worker Bioroid

Standard Combat Bioroid (Blue)

Punch: 2D4
Kick: 2D6
Throw: 2D6 + target loses 1 attack/melee
Body Block/Tackle: 2D8 + Knockdown (Two attacks)

Standard Combat Bioroid (Green)

Punch: 2D6
Kick: 2D6
Throw: 2D6 + target loses 1 attack/melee
Body Block/Tackle: 2D8 + Knockdown (Two attacks)

Leader Combat Bioroid (Red)

It appears from the footage and Technical information on the Bioroids from SDC: SC that the Red Bioroid is little moare than a custom or variant Green Biroid. In all probability, it was a customised machine built for Zor Prime.

After the first member of the triumvirate is killed, apply the following penalties: -2 attacks per melee, -2 to strike, parry, dodge & roll, -1 to initiative. When there is only one left, add them on again (so he is now -4 attacks, etc)
These did not come in until about the last month or so of the war (Starting at episode #54 Mind Game)
This mecha only uses the Laser Drum Weapon.

Punch: 2D6
Kick: 2D6
Throw: 2D6 + target loses 1 attack/melee
Body Block/Tackle: 2D8 + Knockdown (Two attacks)

Interesting note: The Invid fighter picture seen on page 98 is actually a "Scout Bioroid" (Seen only in episodes 37, 51 and 53). The Invid fighter can be seen on page xx of the REF Feild Guide, Incorrectly labelled as a worker Bioroid.

THE ROBOTECH MASTERS SPACECRAFT

Assault Carrier

The Assault carrier has a maximum acceleration of 4.89 g.

There is a variant which replaces the secondary cannons and most of the bioroid storage space with a mini Reflex Cannon. Ow! Fortunately, there is no data available. A ship of this kind was seen in Episode #59 or 60.

Robotech Masters Mothership

Maximum normal acceleration is 1.3g, sustainable indefinitely. Maximum sublight speed is .001 of light.
Armament should read as:

1 Reflex Cannon (Electro-Magnetic Fission Beam)
30 Particle Beam Cannons
1000 High-Powered Laser Cannons (The laser cannons have no penalties to attack mecha-sized objects)

The ship is equipped with a pinpoint barrier system, using the same stats as the Ikazuchi's barrier system (See Sentinels RPG book, p100-101), it can attempt to block any attack thrown at it (no limit to the number per melee).
It normally carries between 20,000 and 30,000 bioroids, about 350 Assault Carriers and numerous other ships.
The ship is equipped with Hyperspace sensors, capable of detecting space folds within a large (unknown) radius with excellent accuracy.

Dana Sterling

In light of some... err.. new Data, she should have a PB of 16.

Angelo Dante

Missing from his other skills was pilot space shuttle at 84%.

Nova Satori

Left out of her skills was weapon systems (95%), Piloting Battloid (75%), Mecha Combat Battloid, WP Knife.

Must be PB at least 20. Come on! Take a look at my Utterly Disturbing Shrine for proof!

Zor Prime

Zor had at 1st level: Piloting Hover Tank (73%), Pilot Hovercycle (74%), Mecha Combat Hover Tank & weapon systems (85%)

Marie Crystal, Sean Phillips, Louie Nichols & Dennis Brown (the invisible TASC) were left out. I could work on them if popular opinion demanded it.

Daniel George who made the AntiKevs what they are today.... (Grins)

Dr Sinn for putting up with the AntiKevs on his page for so many years. (And all the hate-mail that came with them.)

Stan "Basara" Bundy for some feedback, alternate opinions, badgering and taking the **** out of Pete McSporrin.

Nathan J. Babcook of the Army of the Southern Cross Recruitment Manual which is loaded with ASC stuff. Lots of very helpful data. Put some of the AntiKevs into HTML when no-one else was brave enough to.

The Robotech Technical Files, by Peter Walker and Pieter Thomassen, with Rob Morgenstern for much of the technical info used in these AntiKevs. Rob Especially gets a mention for all the Southern Cross info he's dug up that made about half of these AntiKevs possible.

Richard Speyer, for getting the AntiKevs started.

You are all stoats.
