"We are posting this Update early because Wayne, Jeff and I are all leaving for AdeptiCon Wednesday morning and will not be back until Sunday night."
On one hand I understand why they may want to do this before leaving....on the other hand..it's the internet and you could have done this FROM Adepticon ... hell Wayne could post it from the fucking booth...just like he could have posted an update even though he was in China yet NOPE can't do an update while Wayne is in China...but hey they are tech savvy guys don't you DARE say they aren't.... *eye roll*
"We are excited to be part of this awesome event as a new member of the war game community."
Too bad you didn't do an actual Palladium sponsored tournament and only have one run by a fan/MA.
"UPDATE: Bizantium and the Northern Islands™ – Ships next week – March 24, 2015"
I said I would admit I was wrong calling for April...and I was wrong but damn was I close...
"UPDATE: The Rifter® #69 – Ships next week – March 25, 2015"
Ditto
"UPDATE: Robotech®: Expeditionary Force Marines™ Sourcebook – in production"
Provided he doesn't need a week or two to recover from a possible plague that invariably hits the offices after a con appearance
"UPDATE: Chaos Earth® Resurrection™ sourcebook – spring release"
I'll call MAYBE by Gencon...and I am STILL not happy that this book came out of nowhere to bump First Responders which they've had for two years now and can't seem to get too....
"UPDATE: Robotech® RPG Tactics"
Blah blah blah blah
"See you at AdeptiCon – March 19-22, 2015, Chicago – www.adepticon.org"
No you won't. I hope those that attend do have fun though.
"IMPORTANT REMINDER: Before April 1, 2015, you MUST make your HOTEL ROOM reservations for the Palladium Open House. Do it now! Rooms are going fast."
Is it normal for them to do this much CAPS FOR REMINDERS TO GET HOTEL ROOMS? I don't recall them doing this in past years that were pretty full as well.
"UPDATE: PenguiCon – April 24, 25 & 26, 2015 – Southfield, Michigan"
Hope those that attend have fun
"UPDATE: DriveThruRPG.com"
Yeah....when you actually do something worthwhile on this front let me know otherwise it's hot vapourized air.
"NEW Palladium Fantasy RPG® “Paper Miniatures” "
I actually like these and you get some rules for doing Palladium Fantasy in a semi-tabletop fashion. I look forward to the Rifts ones when they get done. Mind you I;d like to see the bots too not just OCCs or smaller monsters...
"A Kickstarter to take a look at: Through Gamer Googles"
So you are shilling for a guy who wants to kickstart his travels to conventions and a stretch goal is him going to the Palladium House....does he understand the stretch goals are supposed to benefit and reward the backers NOT the person running the kickstarter?
"That’s it for now . . .
It continues to be a madhouse at Palladium as we prep for a few conventions and the Open House, and work toward releasing more product for Rifts®, Robotech®, Robotech® RPG Tactics™, Chaos Earth® and more. Got so much to do before we head out. Gotta run."
So is this a hint to how little may actually get done because you have SO much work to do to get ready and go to these conventions? I know I am getting more and more cynical but in the past when he has posted things like this, the hecticness of it all is usually cited as why they get so little done.....
Until next week...
