Palladium Books® Weekly Update – July 28, 2011

By Kevin Siembieda

UPDATE: Rifts® Vampire Kingdoms is at the PRINTER. We will have a limited number of advance copies at Gen Con Indy next week.

The book capped out at 224 pages. We even had to make some portions 9 point type. Vampire Kingdoms is jam-packed with new and expanded material that will make you cringe, smile and want to play. I rewrote almost the entire book, expanding and adding so much to the existing ideas that I went 100 manuscript pages over what was allotted for a 224 page book. That means a good hunk of the Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook™ is already done with plenty of ideas for the rest of it.

I don’t want to over-hype Rifts® Vampire Kingdoms™, but everyone who has seen it has absolutely loved it. Place your orders now to make sure you’re the first in your neighborhood to know how to slay vampires.   ;)

Julius: “It’s great! I was impressed.”

Alex: “Frightening. The situation with vampires is worse than I imagined. The fans are going to love this book. I think it’s some of your best writing ever.”

Matthew Clements: “It’s really solid. I loved the original book, but the new edition feels fresh and brand new. These are not Twilight vampires. They are vampires the way they are meant to be.”

Carl Gleba: “I love the Doc Reid point of view. It so pulls you into the book, setting the mood perfectly. Great job! I love the writing too. Man, you are showing off your stuff!” 

UPDATE: The Rifter® #55 has shipped. It arrived in the warehouse Tuesday and is winging its way over to subscribers and distributors. This issue looks fantastic and presents all kinds of nifty, new source material you’ll enjoy. The R.C. Aradio cover is really sharp. Order your’s today.

FREE Rifts® Vampire Kingdoms™ Sneak Preview available now from DriveThruRPG.com. Check it out. Remember, it is just a taste of what’s in the book. There is so much more.

To get the free PDF download of the Rifts® Vampire Kingdoms™ Sneak Preview, go to DriveThruRPG.com. It is easy to create a free account and only takes a couple of minutes. Sneak Previews of Armageddon Unlimited™ and Rifts® Thundercloud Galaxy™ are also available. DriveThruRPG.com is a good resource for getting the Hades & Dyval Map Pack, The Rifter® Number Zero, The Rifter® #1-48 and to fill in your RPG library with first edition copies of Rifts®, Palladium Fantasy®, Heroes Unlimited™, and other game lines, as well as books such as Nightbane® Book Four: Shadows of Light™ and both versions of the The Mechanoids® RPG (1985) and The Collected Mechanoid Invasion® Trilogy (1981-1983).

DriveThruRPG.com Christmas in July Sale – July 25 – August 1: Offer ends Monday, August 1, 2011 (10am EST).

UPDATE: Rifts® Lemuria. We are already at work on Rifts® Lemuria and the Robotech® New Generation Sourcebook. The initial edit has been done, and now we are in the rewrite and final editing stage. I spoke with Chuck Walton and approved the rest of his final pieces of artwork, all of which look amazing. The rest of the artwork from the other artists is in and it rocks. This book is going to surprise a lot of people. Place your pre-orders, because this baby will ship in August.

UPDATE: Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook. This 96 page book is already half done! Should be out in September. And you will love it. Everything that couldn’t fit in the Vampire Kingdoms™ World Book is here: Fort Reid and more on Reid’s Rangers, Techno-Wizard weapons and a whole lot more. See the new description for it in this Weekly Update.

UPDATE: Robotech® New Generation Sourcebook. In production and should ship in September. Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook™ and Megaverse® in Flames™ follow it.

UPDATE: Back in Print: The following books are back in print and available now. We’ll have them at Gen Con too.

Available Now:

Note: All six books in the Coalition Wars/Siege on Tolkeen series are in print.

The following titles are also recently back in print and ready to ship:

UPDATE: Online sales. Remain up and down, but picking up a bit. New books being released along with more out of print titles (three this week) will make a huge difference. Right now our Number One selling item is the 2012 Palladium Open House. People have been snapping up VIP Night and weekend admissions like crazy. At last count there are only 4-5 VIP admissions left. (Another 20 will be offered in February.) Looking forward to Gen Con sales next week.

UPDATE: 2012 Palladium Open House. Wow, I guess people were really looking forward to a 2012 POH, because the response has been outstanding. I’ve received thank you emails and private messages and seen excited online posts. Cool. The VIP Night admissions are going fast and enthusiasm is running high. In fact, Julius is already working on 6-7 new games for next year’s event. What a guy. Folks have also been reserving their hotel rooms. Excellent. We already have gamers coming from across the USA, Canada, England and Germany! Join the fun.

NEWS! Matthew Clements is Palladium’s new staff writer. Matthew has been working behind the scenes at Palladium for something like the last 8 months. He’s the gent who has written Rifts® Antarctica™, he has contributed to Rifts® Vampire Kingdoms, Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook, has done some editing assistance, and is the driving force behind the Rifts® Black Market™ and Northern Gun™ books, among other projects. We think he’s going to be a huge asset in writing quality sourcebooks and helping us release a new sourcebook (or two) every month starting now. Welcome to Palladium, Matthew.

UPDATE: Gen Con Indy August 4-7 – that’s NEXT WEEK

Palladium Books is Booth 1125

Tell everyone Palladium will be at Gen Con Indy. I mean it. Tell them to swing by and say hello, get some autographs, play in demo games, get the latest products, buy books to fill in their collections and have fun.

Palladium Creators You Can Meet at Gen Con:

And maybe a few others.

Mike Mumah will be doing convention character sketches (maybe Bradshaw too), plus there will be prints and original art for sale. Brandon Aten plans to run a Rifts® Triax game and Zachary Houghton and Lonnie Langston are running demos of Palladium games. Join the fun.

Most of us are at Palladium Booth 1125 for much of the day so you’ll have easy access to us. Stop by to say hello, get books autographed, character sketches, original art, and buy the latest releases, back stock titles, some out of print books (like Ninja Turtles® RPG titles, Rifts® Ultimate Gold and others), collectibles, T-Shirts and other goodies. The guys and I are happy to sign books and chit chat for a little while with everyone who swings by the booth, so come on over and join the fun.

Give us a helping hand by spreading the word that Palladium Books will be at Gen Con Indy – Palladium Books is Booth 1125. Be part of the Palladium “grass roots” promotional campaign to introduce a new generation of gamers to the Palladium role-playing worlds you’ve loved for generations.

UPDATE Alex. I must have jinxed us with last week’s Update, because Alex ended up being hospitalized that very same evening. Suffice to say he was released Tuesday and is feeling better.

QueenofGhouls.com – As you may know, Kathy Simmons’ favorite holiday is Halloween. She goes all out every year putting out a massive display that covers a quarter acre and includes 50+ life sized ghouls. Thousands of people drive by or stop at her house during the month of October to enjoy the display, and Kathy comes out to chat with many of them. It’s fun and nice for her, but Kathy doesn’t think of herself as being “known” even in the neighborhood. Consequently, she was caught off-guard when a man at the local fruit market exclaimed to his wife, “Hey, look it’s the Queen!” Kathy must have had a puzzled look on her face, because the man said, “That’s right. Aren’t you the Queen of Ghouls?” Everyone had a laugh. Then, two days later, she was recognized by a lady a few blocks away at a garage sale. “Oh, aren’t you that lady who has the wonderful Halloween display? The Queen of Ghouls, right?” She went on to talk about how her two grade school daughters make mom drive by the house every day after school. Kathy has even bigger plans for her display this year, with the addition of Frankenstein in her mad doctor’s lab and a horde of zombies coming out of the graveyard. I can hardly wait to see it myself.

She’s working away on more cool stuff. Check it out in her online store. Kathy continues to whip up new creations with more life sized Halloween props going up this weekend. The Queen of Ghouls has plans for more zombies, skeleton pirates, wizards, werewolves and monsters in the weeks to come. Halloween is creeping up fast.

Detroit Fanfare, September 24 & 25

Palladium plans to attend the Detroit Fanfare, September 24 & 25 at Cobo Hall, downtown Detroit. One of the guests is Kevin Eastman – co-creator of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles®. So this fun comic book and media convention will be a great chance to get your Ninja Turtles® game books (and comics) signed by one of the creators. Other guests include fan boy favorite actor, Bruce Campbell, and dozens and dozens of comic book guests. Palladium fans may be interested to know Dave Dorman (Palladium cover artist), Tim Bradstreet, and pal, Defiler and Palladium contributor of old, William Messner Loebs will also be attending, among many other guests. I’ll keep you posted as we firm up the details.

Click here for more information about Detroit Fanfare.

Alliance Trade Show, October in Fort Wayne, Indiana

This is a trade show for retailers, but many hard working store owners and their employees are gamers and Palladium fans. I invite you to bring books for us to sign for your own collections and/or to put in your store as an extra selling feature. We’re happy to do it. I, Kevin Siembieda, and Wayne Smith will be present at the event. Also, please drop by to chat and get the latest news and developments at Palladium.

Rifts® World Book 23: Xiticix Invasion

Rifts World Book 1 Vampire Kingdoms New Revised Edition

NEW! Rifts® World Book One:

Vampire Kingdoms, New Revised Edition

–At the printer – ships August 12, 2011

Trust us, you want this book.

For centuries, Mexico has been considered the realm of monsters best left alone. A land dominated by packs of Wild Vampires and rumored to be home of Vampire Kingdoms in the south. Most of the northern civilizations have stayed away, but over the last 20 years, a growing number of heroes, vampire slayers and adventurers have been waging something of a secret war against the undead. As that battle escalates, stories of heroes, vampires and entire human populations enslaved by the undead or penned, raised and slaughtered like cattle, are starting to leak out. Come see for yourself if the rumors are true and join the battle for humanity in Mexico.

Rifts World Book: Lemuria

NEW! Rifts® World Book: Lemuria

– Ships August, 2011

The power, secrets and magic of the underwater realm of Lemuria revealed. Player characters can use symbiotes, magic and technology to breathe underwater and spend time below the waves.

Lemuria is more than an underwater civilization of aquatic beings. They can trace their lineage as far back as the Atlanteans and can survive on dry land as well as underwater. In fact, their greatest secret is that there is no one resting place for the Lemurians, their great cities are always moving. Learn about the people of Lemuria, new Biomancy magic and weapons, Biomancy engineered riding animals, sea herbs, new powers of healing, sea monsters, and more. Epic adventure awaits.

Rifts Vampires Sourcebook

NEW! Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook

Trouble is stirring in the Vampire Kingdoms as ambitious vampire lords, ladies and misanthropes seek to expand their power to dominate more mortal life forms.

Kevin Siembieda, here. I was dealing with so many other things (Alex’s health and house, coordinating the next several books, Gen Con prep, business, etc.) and lost track of how much I had written for Vampire Kingdoms™, and went over by more than 100 manuscript pages (plus notes and ideas for more)! The good news is, Rifts® Vampire Sourcebook is at least half written and we should easily make the September release date. I have Matthew Clements doing writing and editing for that book right now. Best of all, it’s going to be just as exciting and packed with cool stuff as Rifts® Vampire Kingdoms™.

NEW! Robotech® New Generation Sourcebook

This Robotech® sourcebook will be a 2011 release.

Note: With any luck, there will be companion Robotech® sourcebook released by the end of the year.

NEW! Rifts® Megaverse® in Flames

The Minion War spills across Rifts Earth, where demons and infernals hope to recruit allies and use the Rifts as gateways of destruction. Their influence shakes things up across the planet, especially at locations where demons and Deevils already have a strong presence. More details to follow, but for now, ‘nuff said.

NEW! Rifts® Chaos Earth Sourcebook: First Responders

Data about the chaos and madness of the early days of the Great Cataclysm, and the brave men and women who tried to stem the tide of destruction and save lives, the First Responders.

Rifts World Book 13 Lone Star

Rifts® World Book 13: Lone Star

– Back in Print – Available now

The Coalition State of Lone Star is a wild and woolly place of contrast and conflict. The Coalition States claims the entire State of Texas as their own, but they only control a small corner of it. It is here, at the Lone Star Complex, that the CS engages in genetic engineering and creates the famous Dog Boys and a host of other mutants. The rest of the state is held by the Pecos Empire – an empire of bandits, outlaws and rebels. The perfect companion to Rifts® New West™, Rifts® Spirit West™ and Rifts® Machinations of Doom™.

The Palladium Open House

2012 Palladium Open House – May 4-6, 2012

The Palladium Open House is like nothing you have ever attended. It has a fun, family feel and is three days (four with VIP night) of games, fun and wonderful memories. People talk about it for years, and this may be the last one ever.

● Meet 40+ Palladium creators available throughout the entire event.

● Game with half of the creators present.

● Get autographs from all Palladium creators.

● Have the time of your life.

● We are hosting this event because YOU begged us to do it. So come on over. I promise to make it as special as possible.

● Costume Contest with cool awards and meaty prizes.

● Panel talks that are fun and insightful.

90+ Gaming Events:

This may be our last Open House. Having sufficient parking is becoming a big issue. You may have to car pool from the hotel as it is. And the event is a ton of work that takes four weeks out of our production schedule. It is especially hard on Kathy Simmons, who coordinates most of it and does the catering (we’ll try to help her more). So we may make this our big, final Open House blow out.

V.I.P. Thursday (May 3, 2012). Available now. YOU are the VIP. You get in an afternoon early (doors open at 3:00 PM – catered dinner at 5:30 PM) and are the first to play in special game events, participate in special panel talks, purchase items, and enjoy a dinner catered by Kathy Simmons (and those who have been to past VIP nights know how awesome that is). Reserve your place today.

Weekend Admission is Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Reserve your place today. Placing your order early helps us on many levels, and tells us how many people to expect and how many hotel rooms to reserve.

Individual Day Admission - Friday - Saturday - Sunday might work better for you. If you can only make it one day, that’s cool. Reserve your slot.

Hotel is the location you love at the same 2009 rates ($69.95 a night). The hotel does not charge your card until a day before the event, so reserve NOW. I’m concerned they might run out of rooms. Based on the economy, the hotel has not reserved the entire hotel for us as they have in the past. Book your room fast so you know you have a place to stay. The hotel now offers free hot breakfasts and we will have two conference rooms for late night gaming and open gaming.

We need G.M.s. This means we’ll be looking for volunteer Game Masters (you get a T-shirt and a discount on books if you run three “official” games or more).

Plan to enter the Costume Contest. Winners get a nice plaque and real prizes. Rifts/sci-fi, fantasy, modern (includes horror) and best of show are the categories.

Click here for more details and to reserve your tickets.

The Queen of Ghouls: Life-Sized Halloween Props

Check out the new creations by Palladium’s very own Kathy Simmons. See her zombie doctor and other new zombies, Jack Skellington and Sally, and more. New creations are on the drawing board, and so is a new website. Each Halloween prop is truly life-sized (most are 6 feet or taller – Jack is almost 8 feet) and seems almost alive.

Each is an all-weather, life-sized Halloween prop that can handle rain and snow, and is a one-of-a-kind work of art (no two are exactly the same). Each looks frighteningly “real.” All come apart and fold down to slightly larger than a king-size pillow for easy storage. Comes with easy instructions, a plastic storage bag, and the lawn stake to stand it up in your front yard. Indoor stand sold separately.

Types of “Ghouls” include: Zombies (all kinds!), killer clowns, wizards, witches, devils, grave ghouls, scarecrows, executioners, mad doctors, deadly nurses, vampires, werewolves, and more. Kathy's also now offering an array of hand-painted Halloween signs, signs with heads and bodies hanging from them, witch's brewing pots, Halloween centerpieces and more. Best of all, her high quality creations are much more affordable and imaginative than most competitors or mass produced items in a store, making them affordable Halloween fun.

If you think the photos online look good, you should see them in person. A typical “ghoul,” as she calls her creations, costs $129-$259. You can see some of her work at her Queen of Ghouls™ Ebay store – queenofghouls.com.
