Thanks for staying on top of this. I won't be able to play it any time soon, but I want to snag it just in case they take it down.

It wasn't that much fun the first time around. Harmony Gold needs to be crushed like the roaches they are. The images under dispute would be the Archer, Longbow, Rifleman, Warhammer, Wasp, Stinger, Phoenix Hawk, Crusader, Marauder, Stinger LAM, Wasp LAM and Phoenix Hawk LAM. These are, of course, Macross/Robotech images, which the mid-90s court case between FASA and Harmony Gold (both companies acquired rights to the images from the Japanese owners) that resulted in FASA stripping those images from their products. At the time, Harmony Gold had the better financial and legal backing, which was why FASA settled. Here's hoping Smith & Tinker have the edge, these days. Otherwise the game will just need to remove those 'mechs and replace them.
