The thread that NEVER DIES!

So much necromantic effort in such a small span of posts!

Anyway, I thought it was thought of as a single point of departure/for want of a nail sorta thing

Crazy Lou

magical cities could produce thousands of such people for armies since they often have at least a few high level casters, 1+ diabolist, and 1+ dragon/godling OR 1+ summoner who can get them demon(s)/devil(s)? YUP. Adds a cool element for warfare. We should assume Tolkeen already resorted to this, a...

And besides that, just because there's a bionic system called "Reinforced Metal Bones (M.D.C.)" in the bionics sourcebook and duplicated maybe in a couple places, doesn't mean that just because you have a description in the Titan Juicer description that also mentions bones being reinforced...

Crazy Lou

Got text to support that or is it your own interpretation? Nope, I don't think he does. There are no bionics in the titan juicer conversion. The only thing even close to that are these lines (which is suspect is what is being referenced): The perfected process involved the injection of a chemical s...

Crazy Lou

Anti-Magic Cloud, and a vibro-scalpel. just saying You realize that's an extremely rare spell right? Like it even says in the description something like "most mages think this is just a legend" And that having the weakness of "well, I'm not COMPLETELY unstoppable, there's this one sp...

Permanence wards on Adrenalized Titan juicers works fine. However Murderwraiths can't be made from titan juicers. PheonixJuicer zombies would work however. (emphasis mine) Um... why not? The only requirements to become a murder wraith is to be an evil aligned juicer (except explicitly stated varian...

Crazy Lou

we always limited it to just one, because otherwise things get real munchy, real fast. It's not that bad when you consider that all the gods out there who are diabolists have probably been at it to, to far more frightening results. Yeah... I'm with KC on this one. Stacking many spell effects onto a...

My thoughts from one of the other identical necro'd threads (Seriously, can we not have all but one of them locked?): I mean, they're not actually identical. I originally created them separately because they were separate questions that I thought of around the same time, but posted each as I though...

Crazy Lou

The rules forbid adding them to a supernatural creature, but they don't mention mortals-turned-supernaturals rejecting previously sewed on ones. They don't mention keeping them either, so it's kind of unclear I guess. If it doesn't work on supernatural creatures, then it doesn't work on supernatura...

Is that the ruling handed down in the event that a big Titan Juicer Wolfen eats his standard Juicer Gnome competitor?

Crazy Lou

Hyperion Juicer with Metabolic Induced Voracity: Pie Eating Contest. Titan juicer would probably still win most of the time. It's the biggest by a LOT. Doesn't matter how fast you burn calories - your stomach will break down food only so fast and you fill it up a lot faster than that. Juicer conver...

Crazy Lou

Haha, that'd be funny, but it would take too much credit away from the Juicers themselves, and knowing most juicers, they wouldn't like that very much...

Crazy Lou

Good point. Maybe there'd be some sort of official board/committee that explicitly defined types of juicers? And you can only use the right kinds of drugs/magic drugs for those juicer types? So that you don't have Hyperion Juicers trying to sneak bonus magical power-ups to compete with SN juicer typ...

Crazy Lou

Or maybe magic drugs/compounds or something like that I guess.

SUPER NECROOOOO!!!!

Where's obsidian spell thief? What book?

Wow, hardcore thread necromancy action going here.

The Rifts China books make some edits, including converting Chi wholesale into PPE, but they are not anything like a thing apart. Moreover, my guidance was to make it in Mystic China and convert it ( Conversion Book , p. 49). It converted Chi into ISP btw. As a side note. Also, careful with asking ...

Oh, well I never really read Africa. I never owned it and only borrowed it from a friend once.

A netherbeast. I'll leave it to you as to how to go about doing that... I just don't remember my books well enough it seems anymore. I've been away from them too long and I can't remember where that is either. What book is that from? The beasts that the 4 Horsemen ride in Africa. Not to nitpick, bu...

What are some creatures that could serve as a mount to a 12 foot tall, almost 1000 pound humanoid? I'd prefer that they can move at or over 50 mph, but that's not a hard requirement. I just can't seem to think of anything quite that big.

About MDC: I'm sorry, but when I originally posted the question I didn't intend/expect the thread to turn into a discussion of the power's survivability and a general analysis of its strengths. I brought up MDC b/c I'm mostly a rifts player and I actually posed the question because it's relevant to ...

About the gods and their damage capacities: I'm much more familiar with Pantheons of the Megaverse than Dragons & Gods and I was thinking about those listed damage capacities. Fleet Feet is listed actually on the page before the rest of the wizard spells in Palladium Fantasy RPG 2E. It's 6th lev...

Crazy Lou

the point is moot as stated the 1 million points is to a 100 foot area, which is kind of week for a god but meh anyhow I would require the character to have a Spd of 101 to get out the initial blast radius. Not simply for 1 action, but one second and THEN you only have to have 5d6x1000+1 pts to sur...

Crazy Lou

Well all I was really interested in was being able to dodge the point of impact 1,000,000 points of damage. For my purposes the being in question could survive the max damage of the first 100' radius (30,000 MD). It just can't survive a million points of damage. That's a bit extreme even for him. Bu...

Crazy Lou

Oh, I just re-read the spell to see why you said that and I realize I missed the parenthetical "(and only the spell caster)."

Thanks for catching that.

Crazy Lou

Because then you don't have to dodge. You could cast the spell before entering combat, and the enemy wouldn't even know it was there. Plus you would only need to spend actions casting it, and no extra actions dodging later. It's like having an absolute shield against all projectile attack from one ...

Can the entrance and exit of a mystic portal have different orientations? It seems like that would be possible using the Teleportation section of the spell, as it says that it can be a portal to any nearby (within range) location that is known to the caster. It doesn't mention orientation of the exi...

Crazy Lou

I want to know whether one could cast astral hole but have it appear in front of him to swallow enemy fire, rather than using the hole to dodge the fire.

Crazy Lou

Dragons & Gods states that Godblaze has no saving throw except to attempt to dodge the point of impact (the million damage point), which would allow one to attempt to survive the blast radius damage instead. However the book does not state how one would dodge it. Does the attack require a strike...

Trade where, with whom for what? Do you have some sort of cool book trading place near you? I don't know of anywhere you could trade Rifters..?

Crazy Lou

shrug and put the extras on your shelf too? I've been sent duplicate rifters in grab bags even though I requested not to get any, as I already have them, and that's what I did with the extras.

Crazy Lou

It was the first rifter I got, so I remembered it the instant I read your post.

It could use a bit of clarification and description as to what the victims of this experience. I thought it a bit vague. Have you seen Inception by any chance? I think that the scenes where the girl "architect" is messing around with the "dream world" with mirrors and stuff help...

With the Mundane Aura, using the "Aura of Irrelevance" sub-power, if the power is activated, can he intentionally negate its effects upon select people prior to moving out into a larger/different area with different people? IE: he could be in a locker room with his 2 buddies, have them tur...

I'm not a big fan of how it treats projectiles and magic/psionics differently as to whether the person is treated as running stationary or having moved down virtual space. I think it ought to be one or the other. Either the previous spatial extension should be treated as distance through which psion...

What did folks think of the article about the Lazlo City-State? At first, I didn't like it. I thought it had a lot of holes and infeasibilities. For example, carnivore life forms can eat anything they like so long as the prey isn't intelligent. Who decides what is or is not intelligent? Some of the...

Thoughts about the Teke Freak's Hammer/Crush abilities: First off, the Teke Freak is a beast. No doubt about it. Beating up on mechanized squads is what he does best. That said, none of this was really put through the wringer, so this is definitely a dry run for what will appear in Psychic Storm. A...

Haha, YES! Exactly what I was thinking.

A major version of that power would be cool too. Another version of it might be something like you're swapped with anyone not hostile to you within a radius? Or you could designate several people at once, as long as you're in a radius. It'd be very tough to survive a serious assault, but it would be...
