Great military reading that would be great inspiration for a Recon or N&SS game, or even a Heroes game.

I thought I saw that it was going to be revised for the HU2 somewhere...maybe in the rifter?
Help me out, where did that blurb show up?

NUTS!
I was hoping to get that in my grab bag. Now it looks like it might not happen. Gah. Oh well...I'll just have to save up and buy my 2 copies.

Will the new VU be revised for HU2?

Yeah, I'd like to get it with the ol' grab back if at all possible. I'll buy it anyway, but at least I can get a 2nd one for the Mrs. through the grab bag (plus a few books I have been meaning to pick up as well).

Ok, good thought I just wasn't finding it.
NIce to know that that has remained fairly untouched after all these years.

Is the Game Master guide missing the robot combat tables? It mentions them in the skill section for Robot/PA piloting, not finding it though. Have there been, listed in another book, changes to the tables made on pg 44-45? Any new power armor or robot combat rule changes that snuck in in some other ...

I hate the -10 rule, we had lots of character death without it. It still chews up an attack/action so it costs plenty. Remember, according the main book, you get +1 every 3 or 4 levels with WP guns. So there is a bonus to hit. Plus a little burst fire, as per the rules in the main book, and it's all...

It wasn't a review about China 2, it was on topic about the gun stats.

Yup, I thought so too, (2d6 for adults). I suppose it is in some other games.

That'll learn me for not checking my books before I post (I was at work).

I thought I read in the 2nd Powers Unlimited that heroes get 6D6 P.P.E., is this correct?

Does this contradict the main book, I thought it was always 2D6 P.P.E. for non-spellcasters.

Or is it a new rule?
Just want to make sure we're giving our wizard all the PPE he can handle.

thanks

It's easy to add the equipment if you have an old copy of access to work with. Like Office 97 or so. I think the newer version want to convert it and it might not work right. Try at own risk and back it up! I also removed all the prices, so money was no longer an issue and I could 'buy' equipment as...

I've had it on three different computers with XP there were a few glitches, but nothing unusual or weird. The same bugs that showed up in windows 98 are still there in XP [/quote] Same here, but I did update it with all of the Coalition War campaign armor, guns and a few power armor units. Works gre...

Actually it is Croatoan, and I would think that that would make a great addition to the mysteries of the Rifts world. Croatia is in the Balkans.

I'd be up for another screen. More art on the outside, possibly a nice landscape piece or assorted art from various Rifts covers. Fonts...use a better font for the screens and PC sheets. They're hard to read. I loved the PC sheets, but please, use a sans-seriff font like arial or something, and noth...

Yeah, I can see the pulp style there.

I'm looking forward to a big book detailing the south east U.S., that being Dino Swamp, but the cover kinda cracks me up. It reminds me of a coloring book that one would buy at a museum.



Still, looking forward to it. So when the hell is it going to be out? : )
