    I currently have 6 DVD's of Roughneck's in my library... When you say last episodes, are you refering to the Earth campaigns?

    I have that. All were bought at Best Buy, so they are out... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/wink.gif[/img]

    well i was reading online over [url="http://www.trooperpx.com"]www.trooperpx.com[/url] that there were three unproduced episodes numbers 33 38-40 were never produced.

    The commentary on the Homefront disc mentions the unproduced episodes.

    Episode 33 was cut because of budget and time reasons--it was a very ambitious episode.

    Messiah, the Roughnecks series is excellent. Highly recommended.

    I believe that's correct. Hey, the way things were going, you're lucky to only miss 4 episodes... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    Grrrrr... now I have to hunt down 2 more DVDs... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    I have all of the Roughnecks DVDs, and there are only 6 of them.

    The original plan for the series was 40 episodes. There were to be 8 different 5-episode story-arcs, each one taking place on a different planet.

    During the course of production, various episodes were cut for various reasons.

    3 episodes were never made, and some episodes were replaced with "clip shows" that contained mostly pieced-together clips from earlier episodes.

    There is only one main story arc that hasn't been released on DVD, and that's the "Ice Asteroid" episodes. That set of episodes is considered to be the weakest, but it does leave a rather large hole in the overall story.

    In all, I think there were a total of 10 episodes that haven't been released on DVD. 3 of them were never shot, 2 are clip shows, and the other 5 are the Ice Asteroid eps.

    So Jack, don't worry about it; you've got 'em all. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    FYI, here's the list of DVDs that have been released (this is from memory, so they may not be in chronological order):

    The Pluto Campaign
    The Tophet Campaign
    The Hydora Campaign
    The Tesca Campaign (Tesca Nemerosa)
    The Klendathu Campaign
    The Homefront Campaign
