Just an incredibly successful, well run campaign.

Jason Richards

Really looking forward to y'all getting to see these new books. Some very faithful conversions and some slightly new takes on things. Should be lots of fun! We're all looking forward to it too! And if y'all wind up needing any freelancers, I'm always available. XD Ha. I'm just a dude along for the ...

I say this as someone with first hand knowledge. The new KS, or whatever platform is used, will be run by Pinnacle at the right time. Last year, Pinnacle ran KS campaigns in April, so that seems like a reasonable guess. This was said about April... 2018... I think now that it's January 2019, its fa...

You can easily hire someone from Fiverr.com to do artwork, I pay $10 for original work at my Flickr site, check it out. m I LOVE Fiverr! hahaha Definitely don't do this for a submission. Submitting your own artwork would be awesome (and a separate submission, ultimately), but don't hire someone els...

Jason Richards

I hear you. MOS is just the parlance we're given by legacy and it takes burden off the players to give prearranged packages of skills.

Jason Richards

Some of the best skill systems involve you just taking a single skill for your career, like "Dental Tech" and then using that skill for everything related to the profession.

Jason Richards

Now that it looks like we're getting First Responders, would an introductory campaign be of any interest to y'all? The format I have in mind would be four Rifter articles with different scenarios for civilian survivors. Surviveability would be low, but the game would allow for new characters to be a...

Jason Richards

Just ordered my copy of Surviving Chaos Earth. Looking forward to it Hey Jason - I noticed that this covers the First Responders and Psychic Storm books. I could be wrong but didn't you also submit a book on the military too? "Brothers in Arms" or something like that? Not submitted, but w...

Jason Richards

I'm looking forward to reading my copy of the Raw to see the differences. If I think there's room for some stuff that got cut, I'll see if I can dress it for the Rifter as official material. Jason, I added stuff to page 8 to 13, Hell on Earth - to - A World gone mad! Made some maps too that were no...

Jason Richards wrote a great book! Jason's Bunkerman OCC inspired the Survivalist OCC. (PB removed Bunkerman, I added Survivalist) The Survivalist OCC is in Rifter 80 also. In the story part: The Nebraskan Prepper (Survivalist OCC). I wrote a bunch about the Survivalist OCC but had to parse it down...

Books still rolling. Very excited for the new team. My fellow Texans, doing work!

Jason Richards

Fwiw, Shane says this doesn't impact SR. For my own knowledge, Sean had turned over development of books on SR to others anyway, though it sounds like he is writing some of the crunch.

Saw they have another about to launch. Lankhmar: Savage Seas of Nehwon

Jason Richards

There are often at least a couple of pickup games around if those on the schedule fill up. I know I'm bringing enough setup materials to run my one extra time, if needed.

Jason Richards

"Sean Tate Bircher said in the replies, that the writing is pretty far advanced, but he wasn't able to elaborate on it, any more than that. Hopefully we'll see the official announcement on Pinnacle's website, with more details, soon" This was written a year ago.. and we've not even seen a...

Was booked at the Hampton, but just switched over to the La Quinta. I'm sure the Hampton is a touch nicer, but the price difference was big, plus it seems to be where many people are staying (though they're basically next door to each other). Just gonna be crashing there, anyway. And eating the &qu...

Jason Richards

As everything Fannon said about the next Savage Rifts books could be applied to Mechanoids Space (With the exception that Mechanoids Space is also available for pre-order), a tempering of enthusiasm may be warranted. I know it's fashionable to be super pessimistic on this board, but when doing so r...

Was just coming here to post this. His responses in the AMA mirror what he told me privately.

Jason Richards

I don't actually know, but I'll see if I can get that done for you. Brb.

Jason Richards

All good points, but remember that Sean doesn't run the Kickstarter or have any say about when it goes, or doesn't.

Jason Richards

I'm not trying to fight anyone, for crying out loud. Just communicating what information I have. The KS isn't in SPF's hands, in any case. It's in Pinnacle's/Shane's. And Shane is currently in Africa. Rather than a bunch of posturing, how about I just ask Sean what he had heard about it and report w...

Jason Richards

I think people underestimate the effectiveness of mind controlled servants and plain old paid mercs. Also the ability to stake vampires to keep them on standby. Especially wild vampires.

Jason Richards

I'll be there, so... let's hang out.

Jason Richards

Yeah, there are some aspects of his plan as they appear in the book that are problematic as you describe. I always viewed it as a longer term threat. One thing a vampire should never be is "in a hurry."

Jason Richards

I'll try to get to it all... Not actually Spring yet, right? In any case, there is a lot of the season left. Also, I don't know that such a date was ever announced, so no promises have been broken, here. SPF doesn't have anything to do with Tokusato. Freedom Squadron is his company's project, but Sa...

Jason Richards

What a great conversation! For the record, my assumption for the sake of Arzno is that because the pyramid essentially exerts some control over the ley lines it's connected to, that control includes some coming and going. The idea that any pyramid allows teleportation to any other pyramid, regardles...

Jason Richards

Probably one of those things like the Xiticix War where is gets setup and most of it left to the GM and players to work out in-game how is pans out. As it was basically the set up of the writers home game and intended to be the theme of any local games there wasn't supposed to be a resolution. Inst...

Jason Richards

It has been about a year since the announcement, no kickstarter has been launched, and there doesn't seem to be a breath of this on Pinnacle's site. I wonder if they're wondering how risky it would be to do a Kickstarter on a Palladium linked project at the moment. If the plan was to kickstart all ...

Jason Richards

Submitted my game yesterday. Gonna run it twice. I call it The Fall of Arzno.

Jason Richards

If you missed out on this, you can now pre-order the miniatures and other add-ons on BackerKit:

No inside info, here. You guys know what I know!

Jason Richards

At least SOME things that fall into this category are in the First Responders manuscript.

Jason Richards

I have my Rifts Arzno game concept all worked out.

Will probably run a Chaos Earth First Responders game.

Will also probably run a Savage Rifts game.

Jason Richards

Hey dudes and dudettes, help a brother out. As of RUE, Whykin had been offered a place at the CS table, and the king was supposedly considering accepting statehood (RUE, p. 25). In subsequent books, has that storyline ever progressed at all? I don't think it has, but certainly could be missing somet...

Jason Richards

Hi guys. I was prepping some Open House stuff and left wondering about what CS soldier loadouts were the most iconic. This is for a "new style" soldier, but I know many artists and players prefer some of the old weapon designs, so those might fit better. What weapons are most iconic in the...

Entering the last day! Thanks y'all for the support!

Jason Richards

Also, I have my Arzno game hook written and it. is. epic.

If you're really running a spectator game with creators playing, I want a seat!

Jason Richards

Look alive, Palladiumites. Jason will be at the POH. I'll probably run three games. One on VIP night, and a couple the rest of the weekend. I figure, being the only person that I know of to write for both Classic and Savage Rifts, that I should probably run one Savage game featuring the new material...

I'm not a backer of this project (I'm not a mini fan), but I really hope it does well. I have to admit, I love the California License plate on Tusk's weapon. Very classy!

Well TECHNICALLY it's just Savage Worlds content, but if you check it out you'll see how Riftsy it is, down to the Mike Wilson art. I have a couple more coming your way in the next several days. This is all tied into the Kickstarter for miniatures that correspond with these supplements, which launch...

I do get around a lot. That could be an explanation.

You can compare that map with Google Maps.

Nailed it.

My vote is for 2019. 10 months seems like a long time, but it really isn't. I think more than a year to plan is a must. Don't wanna rush it!
