Nod, I would say the child has a 50/50 chance of beign either race, but not both.

verdilak

Never will come out.

Why you ask?

Because KS never wanted it written about in the first place.

How I roll up my chars and have my players do it. Roll 3d6 3 times each for each stat. You get to pick out of the three. You dont get to change the numbers to a different stat. If you are wanting to play a [blank] but dont meet the requirements, then you either play something similar who tries to pa...

In my opinion, Seduction doesn mean instant love. All it should mean is "Sarah, the guy your elf is talking so notices how smooth he is, how charming... if you didnt know any better, you would say he was putting the moves on you... but alas, his pretty boy face IS to die for." and you let ...

I've looked in BOM and RUE, the RUE errata, and searched the form, but came up dry. It says that the save is standard, however it can be raised by one (-1 to save) with the addition of 3 PPE. Is there an official ruling on an upper limit? If 3 can be pumped in, why not more? And if so, just how muc...

I love books, I dont like to see them harmed in any way/shape/form. But... I say to burn the manga sized ones and never mention them again.

Well yeah, but they are found in a PF book, so was talking about them from PF's perspective.

Well as for the parrying all with the auto parry, they can't. If anyone with WP Paired Weapons does a simutaneous attack with both weapons, then the person parrying can only parry 1 of the attacks. The exception is if the defender has paired weapons. If you allow the Jeridu to perform paired weapon...

verdilak

Well, if we want to go with semantics, paired weapons would clearly mean only 2. So, while each pair of limbs can act like a human with paired weapons, each pair would require a seperate attack action. It doesn't say anything about them being able to bring all 6 arms to bear at once in 1 attack. It...

Try an Archer/Longbowmen!!!! 3 longbowshots at a time! HOPE HE IS ON MY SIDE!!! I hope he's on your side, too, given that the mechanics don't work on that. In order to get the advantage of a long-bow, it has to be drawn cross-body, otherwise you don't use the length of the limbs to their full advan...

verdilak

Well, I took that just to mean they could use any of their limbs as paired weapons, not that they could use them all simultaneously in one round. I don't read that as giving them a multiplier with their H2H attacks, but rather more options. For example, they could use one set of arms to hold someth...

verdilak

Well, this is something I always wondered about. I don't have my copy of LotD1 handy but when I read it, I didn't have the impression that Jeridu can use their APM x the number of arms they have. The bonus attacks they receive are for the added limbs, they don't have the ability to multiply their a...

Seems like everyone forgot about the Danzi, found in the beginning of Eastern Territories.

Or is this just written badly?

Written badly.

With HtH Expert, this is what my char has for attacks at level 2
Number of Attacks: 6 (+3 at level 4)

So I had this idea of running a pirate campaign and the idea of it sounded fun at first then I thought about the mechanics of it and decided that 20-30+ sailors versus 40-50+ pirates is a lot of combat to accout for. Secondly if there is mass combat and you only tell the stories of the few characte...

In the past week, I have come across 2 separate rifts games with 2 separate GMs and gaming groups. They both are not allowing glitter boys to be played in their games. I understand GMs perogative and all, having ran several games myself where certain things just wouldnt fit. Why, in a "regular...

It says in the back of the Japan book, that Stone Ox grants a lifting and carrying capacity 50 times the normal weight capacity. So... if you have a strength thats over 17, the normal carrying weight would be [PS]x20. Then you would multiply that by 50, correct? So if your PS (playing a Dwarf Demon ...

verdilak

Thanks for the responses everyone. The one issue still not completely answered is the combat rules for the archer in a point blank range situation. Long bowman in PF don't get an automatic dodge. Therefore like in the situation mentioned the long bowman who had not switched weapons by the time the ...

verdilak

At Point Blank, I do believe people at -10 to dodge gunfire, so at least half should apply to arrows. You are right, dodges use up attacks. However in D&D the defense is completely passive, meaning you have a 15 for defense and if the other guy gets above it, you are hit. Personally,I prefer the...

I dont charge 1 hp for AOE... The theory of backing off to let it cool down could work some times. but not for a good Diabolist. Example 5th lvl Diabolist Inflict+ AOE+Sleep+Sleep+death+Death+Death+power thats (5d6*3)*3 = 45D6 PER ROUND for 5 rounds strait to SDC/HP... if they fail one of the sleep...

Personally, I dont give a **** what KS says on the matter. If that makes me rude, so be it.

Palladium. Dont care who says otherwise. Wow. Rude much? Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Including you. I read that as "Even if the official position changes, I will continue to call it Palladium." Nod. I wasnt forcing my opinion on anyone, otherwise i would have said something...

Palladium. Dont care who says otherwise.

I just hate getting a book with an ongoing storyline, pages on updates from PB, and npcs in skimpy outfits...

I say just make a normal rifter and add on the skimpy clothed npc's to a normal rifter, so that we get normal rifter-goodness.

Nod very true.

I assume, as was KC, that you were talking about rifts.

Well... not entirely alone, no. It's just my personal opinion , but if it is to be an anual event, I would like to see the Swimsuit Rifter printed in addtion to the regular quarterly issues. That might not be feasable printing cost-wise, but that is what I would like to see. I agree. I love doing t...

Interesting. On further examination, I'm not sure where I got the impression ferrets were covered by either, because in my revised edition, ferrets aren't mentioned in either the Marten or Weasel entry. Not in the index list at the bottom of the Wolverine page. Perhaps I misread. I may be missing i...

macksting wrote:I thought ferrets were under the Mink & Marten listing. Has that changed in AtB2?

In TMNT, before the revised, Ferrets were listed with Weasels i believe. I will double check when I get home.

verdilak

Ferrets/Weasels. They are the best. Especially if you are using original rules, as i do.

verdilak

Who cares about a typo? You all should be used to them after reading just one of PB's products. Sheesh.

Thanks for the thread jack.

No, Taoism is in Mystic China. Its already Cannon and whatnot.

verdilak

Alright there is the normal ones, Principles, Scrupulous, Unprincipled, Anarchist, Miscreant, and Diabolist. But everyone seems to forget about Taoist. So if there is Taoist as an alignment, I think there should be alignments drawn up for other philosophies. Not religions, since having a christian o...

Yup. That and when my group plays TMNT, its always played in current time. We dont go back in time to the 80's to play the game since it doesnt have to be pidgeonholed to that decade. It's not fair to the game to do that to it. What? You need someone to spell out your game for you and flesh everyth...

what I would fix: Updating the fluff and setting to make it a 2010 TMNT. 2010!?! Why? I think it's best to keep set in the 80's that way you don't have to worry about adding new technologies and information on everything that was available in the 80's is available via the net. Simplem Gordy, the sa...

Check out the Old Ones book for Palladium Fantasy. There is the Illusionist OCC.

What i wouldnt fix: Skills. i love that setup and I think it's the best. Bio-e. ATB2 is just ridiculous in their bio-e usage. Very high powered in that sense. i would make everything TMNT costs, but add in things that need to be added in. what I would fix: Layout. Paired Weapons. Updating the fluff ...

Looks good!

Thanks!

Okay, I found the skill in MC... and it pretty much sucks. Gives no damages to anything (so in reality, you would use whats in the book already and use the damages set down in Moo-Gi-Gone), and gives you the normal +1 to damage, strike, parry every few levels, but you can only pick one of them to ge...

So far, I have just increased it by what seems it would be in progression. 5d6 restrained, 2d6x10 normal, and 4d6x10 power.... but I will see what my GM wants.

If you are not putting the information out there for anyone else, it would be okay. As seen by Kevin stating that he can use DC characters, and Marvel characters in his own home/gaming place and its okay to convert them to palladium books and vice verse, its not okay to post them online. The same is...

I have an Experiment Hero that must transform to use his powers. He has APS: Metal, Superhuman Strength, and Adrenaline Surge. When enraged/terrified and in his metal form, he can top out at a PS that is 88 and Supernatural. What damage would he do? The chart stops at a PS of 70.

Here is a basis (still havent found the rule in MC... Nekira, please enlighten us?) or starting point of what I am thinking of... If you do not train for Improvised Weapons, you have a penalty to Strike and Parry. -1 for tiny objects like pencils and pens -2 small objects, like wine bottles -3 mediu...

Well... TMNT was a license held by Palladium, which it no longer does. So i guess its up to Laird and Eastman, who would love to know people still love their stuff. As far as weight and speed and height to deal with damage... gotta find out the speed humans punch with, and the force, then tabulate t...

Nod... what upper hand to give is hard to determine. I'll have to look again, but I didnt think Moo Gi Gong gave any parry/strike bonuses to using found objects, though it does give bonuses to damage... so by going off of the damage aspect, i think training in an improvised weapon skill would give f...
