Ziggurat the Eternal

i dont know if it was this thread, and i dont have the patience to check, but someone made a really good argument over why palladium draws such nuclear level praise/defense and hate/criticism. What it boils down to is this. Palladium books are written in a very personal and familiar manner, kevin di...

You guys keep going with mages... how quickly will there PPE stores run out? Going against a horde of undead? So an Apok uses a standard sword... it works, a pistol with standard bullets... it works, a shotgun... it works, a grenade launcher with frag rounds... it works, (see where I'm going with t...

Sorry bout that Shin, some of us don't read an entire topic before we post. Anyhoo, as I add my Not-Locked-Count 1, I'd just like to Derail a bit and ask if anyone has thought of adding a nazcan line warriors rune drawings to a regular mage, even though it is not plausibly possible. why isn't it pl...

You can not have a half human half vampire. Vampires are dead they don't have bodily fluids. they have them, they are just inert useless fluids. Also, vampirism isnt biological, its supernatural. A Wampyr however is pretty much a Dampyr, so check out nightbane for that. Wampyr are not half breeds. ...

As myself and quantum are a doctor and a bio-chemist respectively, we knows this very well.

Derivative works aren't fair use, and "oh but it's not for profit" doesn't change that. The reason fan-created works almost never get shut down is because it's bad publicity, not because they're legally protected. J. K. Rowling, for example, has made it quite clear that she really doesn't...

Okay I will explain the Venom aimed at Palladium and Co. 1) We are getting a new book(s) that are rehashes of one we bought ages ago. 2) Kent Burles snot rocket art (not my words but I appreciated them) 3) Kevin is for all intense and purposes releasing the 2nd edition of a sourcebook we bought sev...

Ziggurat the Eternal

So far that preview is nothing I didn't see in the first book. And some yawn inducing fluff text taking up a whole lot of space. Lemme just say that its a waste of time and money and move on. For you and your opinion it may be, for me I'm stoked. Sadly, me and my opinion generally includes my gamin...

Ziggurat the Eternal

Who are you to say what does and does not fit into the "this can be interpreted different ways" category. I am not saying this is canon, just that it is an interpretation. Yet all other Mystic classes on Rifts Earth have spell knowledge, so one could conclude that it is possible for a Mys...

good stuff. what about everything else you mentioned?

Ziggurat the Eternal

actually, the LLW gets free armor on a ley line, as well that i believe is stated to work with other armors, giving them more durability. add in that they can use all the same spells and they can have nearly as many minions as a shifter. a shifter only gets so many minions, spells would provide the...

Ziggurat the Eternal

short answer, not really. there are very few actual magical items, most are rip-offs of spells. this isn't dnd with a plethora of magic doodads to satisfy you. Magic is highly neglected in the opinion of many. The magical items tend to pale in comparison to tech too. For example, the rings of the el...

Ziggurat the Eternal

You can add Combat Mage Okey-dokey. Are Russian LLW different than normal LLW's? I wondered the same thing myself. I never got into the Russia books; my campaigns are based in North America, so my interest in the farther-out world books is pretty limited. russian ley line walker is the same, except...

Ziggurat the Eternal

The reason i asked this .. was because .. 1) - Some casters do get enhanced abilities for combat .. while other's do not . 2) - Some caster's get a reduced PPE cost casting certain spells .. other's do not which increases their overall damage capabilities 3) - Some simply have access to more powerf...

The Gizmoteer is in the Rifts: South America 2 world book. TY Um - quick question - repeat of above. Kinda Does anyone know of any listing of a power source, doesn't matter what kind. That states it can be run for "X" amount of time off a standard e-clip??? We just worked out the rulings ...

Nice to finally see them! Looks like a cool house. thanks mate. this all stemed from Todd Yoho's statement that he was writing something that would scare even H. Shiva this is my attempt to bring a level of terror that the Splicerverse hasnt seen before That would have been House Emaciai. A Splicer...

Thank You All for the support and push! , IMHO, I highly doubt it will be like an Austrialia 2 & 3 or Lemuria wait, Ziggy. I don't make the final calls on what goes out and when it does, but I am pretty confident in saying that Palladiumbooks wants to produce as many quality titles as possible ...

If, in one posting, I can increase the hellish chaos of even a single planet seven-fold, then I believe that I have done my duty as a Game Master to the widows and orphans of that world. By increasing their number. Drastically. Take note, I found this post worthy of being spread to the Megaverse. I...

Gritty Game = Far from civilization. Little to no Military Designated [MD] Gear. No inate powers. Honestly not what Rifts was meant for [IMHO] but some people imagine it that way. Low Power = Limited to standard MD body armor and classic rifles/pistols. No Power Armor. No full augmenation [May incl...

I dont think there are too many, just too many redndant ones, and reprints with one or two minor alterations.

Ziggurat the Eternal

IMO the only people who could care less about or think the removal of the life-span of juicers is a good thing are "optimizers" (God i hate that phrase call a spade a spade - a number cruncher.) You'll need to explain then what numbers that they're crunching to 'optimize', since lifespan ...

Ziggurat the Eternal

Really, outside of rampant B.S. and serious hard-core munchkining, no player group will have the power or influence necessary to pull off a stunt of such magnitude. It was kind of designed that way. Atlantis is pretty much a forlorn hope.

Also when the GM lets someone kill your character cause you are having a technical issue and can't show up for a couple of sessions

So much rage.

Alrighty then, I have some stuff. Been a bit more than half a year. round three quarters. LOst everything i was working on. I'm going to rebuild everything from the ground up. First things coming, Bio-E Disrupters. Some fluff from my plant house, and a bit o' bio-tech from 'em too. Maybe a warmount...

Switch Blade A Bio-Tech Switch Blade is far different than its technological equivalent. Instead of a simple spring-loaded knife blade, this weapon is the bizarre combination of a wicked-looking long sword and a serrated whip. A simple mental command from the wielder causes the seemingly solid blade...

I always have some sort of Bio-E vent or pistol. Standard on everything I make. A light-cell rifle is usually a choice, and I'm fond of the Fan creation Switch-Blade. Its a tentacle whip that stiffens into a sword. Its awesome. Think it's slappy's. As For HA, I love me some Bio-Rockets and Combat Sp...

they sound kewl. not much i can offer for advice at the moment.

Really i dont do much for the animals themselves. I rip off mosters and animals from rifts worldbooks and dimention books.

I would love to stat out stuff from some of the crazier animals found on earth, but dont have the time lately.

My deal breaker is rampant and favoritized munchkinism. i.e. favorites get to be munchkin, no one else does. Vast and sweeping house rules that have no support in the game, make no sense, and aren't informed to the group. Constant interruptions of both the game and myself. I can tolerate a bit ...

Cannot be a psychic and a harvester. Actually... there's nothing technically preventing that. There's a not under one of the Harvester abilities saying that the Harvester can't be psychic. Psychics are also immune to being harvested... You don't have to be able to use that ability to remain a Harve...

Couldn't care less. Vampires MORE dangerous than they already were? Who gives rat's behind about their tactics, they're stupid bloodsuckers. Deluded Vampire? Deluded author is more like it.

I can be corrected but Splicers supernatural strength isnt really 'supernatural' it is just called that cos it is at the same level of damage capacity you are right this is a non magical world but this world is linked to the megaverse and there is always the slim chance that something from somewher...

UPDATE: The manuscript is shaping up much better since I was able to devote some of my vacation to it. So far I have 14 new Morphus tables and over 60 new Talents (among other content), though many are just skeletonized concepts. If all the Talents work out and stay in the finished product (and ass...
