Title: Mongoose getting out of minis

What a shame, I got into the SST when it first came out and the rules are fun and the minis (not without some problems) were good at a decent and reasonable price :cry:

Pre-painted did it for me and their forays into RPG figures for 2000AD and B5 which they didnt expand on.

Wouldnt Rogue Trooper plastic figures have been a great idea using the SST rules? :freak:

Hopefully 2008 will be kinder to them and they'll be back in the minis game in 2009 as planned.

Good luck to 'em.

They are planning on releasing their Evo rules as open game content, so free for anyone to use.  Also giving away free the SST elements to go with it.

Hey Rich, buy their casting rigs and end the permanent shortage of Kroonbots!

Please also note that my contract specifically DOES NOT allow you to take capital investments out of my royalties. Thanks in advance,

I wonder who will be left to buy there games? After alienating almost anyone who plays anything that they produce? Real shame about the 2000AD minis that will never come...rogue trooper would have been an obvious EVO upgrade.

Actually, your contract makes no mention at all of the subject, so I prefer to take the Jeffersonian approach and anything not explicitly stated falls into my domain to choose the course I think is best.  8)
