Hi there, first of all this is a fanmade and personal project at the moment it will be released in German, for my own self than I will work also on a French and English version.

- My first objective is to complete the rulebook for my Transformers Tabletop game.
- The little introduction of the Transformers, I took from the first official Transformers Guide what Simon Furmon had released and translated it in German. But for those who can read German don't gudge me too hard, because the pics I will put in here is the first edition so there are still many faults.
- Next are the rules, I'm not really an expert on Tabletop games, so I searched for a tabletop game where you can play in little groups or even in a large amount of characters like Warhammer 40k but it shouldn't be a must. And I found a game wwhat I'm searching for and this game calls themselves Infinity, so I'm very inspired on the game rules from this game.
- Then when I finished the rules I will do the techspechs of all character in the Transformers IDW Comic Universe. Because my goal is it to create a tabletop game based on the characters from the IDW Universe (Transformers Prime/Beast Hunters, Bay Movies not included).
- The next step will be the hardest, I will learn and I hope I will understand it to use the free program blender to modeling the miniatures I need for my game.
And when I can manipulate the program, the tricky and also the expensive part will come, and that is to ask the IDW Transformers artists to ask them to draw for me, if the artworks I have from the comics aren't enougth, to draw me the characters from the front, from the side, and from the back so I have more data to modeling them.
- But if evreything fails because the Copyright and so on, I still have a backup plan already.
- When the rulebooks are finished I will try to upload it somewhere and it will be a high PDF and most of all it would be Free, the same would be for the miniatures; when I come there of course.

So here the pics I have at the moment. First of all the Cover of the rulebook.


Then the little introduction, but when I'm back in my home I will correct the fault of the introduction.

There I finally corected the German text.

Here we have the 8 first rulepages from my fanmade and personal project Transformers Universe, unfortunaty it still be written in German, but when I'm finished the rulebook, I will work on a French and English version, too.

Here we have the next 12 pages of my little project.

I don't really read German but the idea of a table top game is SUPER AWESOME! I haven't played a table top game like that in quite a while. You pop out an English Version of this and I'll be on it like white on rice.

Back when Alternators were still being made, (They really got me into starting my collection. I miss alts ) I started to work an an RPG game using PHP. I only got as far as character sheets and basic combat. I haven't looked at any of it in a while. I was using a mix of D&D and D20 rules.

Will you be posting a new thread for the updates on this or will this be the "official" thread for this project? I just want to know what one to bookmark

Well first of all thanks very much for your interest of my work and yes, when my fanmade project is done I will also make a French and English version of this rulebook.

And for the topic, this one will be the official topic for all the updates.

Excellent idea and clean, well designed pages. I would love to play this, and paint the miniatures! Reminds me of my days playing Warhammer 40k...

Exactly, that would be my goal. To play the game with friends and coloring the miniatures.

Well I wish you luck dude, It's kind of surprising that Hasbro haven't thought of it.

Thanks and yes it's true, but maybe one day they will bring also a official Tabletop out.

There, the next 12 pages from my German Transformers Universe rulebook are finished.

There the 10 last pages at the moment, because I make some researches now for all weapon types from the Transformers Universe at that would take a while.

Here's a little update on my fanmade project, but note this it's still the German version so you must read German to get the hole informations but I assure you all that after the German version I will work on a English version of this rulebook.

Here the 6 next pages of my fanamde project.
