It started a couple of days ago and from multiple locations so I know it is not just at home. Is there a reason why it takes so long to go to the forum? It is the same when I go to the home page.

Unless things on the space station are psionically controlled, Both RCCs are no danger to the station. If the station works on magic power, only the psi-nullifier would be a danger to the station. The nega psychic st least has a say in whether he wants to nullify magic near his person.

That is a great idea. However, Myrrlin, up to this point has been a force for good, even though he is just pretending. Even before the apocalypse, he was playing the long game and gave no indication that he was working against Arthur back then and even now so you would have to come up with an event ...

It will be a long time before they start on a new IP. Between working on a new Elder Scrolls game and the Fallout series, it will be a while until they even start to think about another new IP.

I don't think it was an oversight on the part of the authors. If you look at the stats such as the Fat Boy, it has a higher MDC on various parts of its body, especially the main body. The Hells Angel has addition al benefits such as flight and the ability to fire the boom gun in mid air. You can thi...

I don't think there was ever a Lazlo supplement. Haven't checked the Rifter. Lazlo opted to not to stand with Tolkeen. They did not want to draw the ire of the CS. However, I believe they were willing to help Tolkeen residents establish a new home. They tried to persuade the Tolkeen govt not to figh...

Other than mechanics. THe Deluxe version has a decent rules to creating your own race. It also more or less states that humans are the default from which all other race are compared to when creating a new race (in the book, it gives list of what is equivalent to a free edge and beyond).

If a NEMA platoon arrived on RIFTS America, especially east or central America, the Republicans would have been notified through several means. One would be through ARCHIE, another may be that their communications are aligned, and 3rd through their own spies.

You can explore that possibility with an alternate universe where Tolkeen succeeded in crippling the CS enough that the CS no longer could pull off another offense without putting their own territory in danger. In that future, I would have made it so that Lazlo, New Lazlo, and the Federation of Magi...

It is a shame that the Rifter has been either discontinued or dropped down to 1 issue per year. That was a nice way to find fans who could potentially become great writers for the company. Does any writer work as a full time employee (like Bill Coffin used to) or are all Palladium Books writers now ...

Out of curiosity, what was the baseline used when statting up weapons, power armor, and mechs? For example, in D&D, humans are the base from which all the other races are compared to when being created.

Will the books be appearing in retail?

Again, yes, I know that Palladium is notorious for missing deadlines. The fans have known about Kevin being the bottleneck. However, Kevin does not have to be involved in the monthly or quarterly subscription operation where everything has to be approved by him. That responsibility can be given to a...

oni no won

Well, that is due to the bottleneck that is Kevin but I believe Wayne has done an admirable job of keeping the Rifter a quarterly publication for as long as it had. WotC is moving towards that model. It is inevitable. Paizo already has embraced it and seems to be thriving.

I recently got into Starfinder rpg from Paizo. They have a subscription base model where they gain regular monthly revenue by doing what they do best - making great adventure modules. Palladium books should look into doing something similar. Paizo has several subscription plans. One is a monthly sho...

Was excited to see a group putting up a video of their gameplay. It is nice to actually see Youtubers play a Palladium rpg. However, it was bad. First, the screen was dead for close to 9 minutes before the group showed up. Second, they started off disorganized. The GM did not go into the setting unt...

It's too broad of a brush to say "Being a member of the CS military means being part of an openly genocidal military"? You bring up Custer's Regiments... that's pretty much the official CS stance. They may pick and choose their battles, but... To Embrace the Inhuman is to lose our humanit...

So I was a huge Rifts fan back in the early 2000's, and as far as I know I had purchased every single book up through Aftermath. Unfortunately a confusion in the shipping process when I returned stateside left me without the box that held that dear collection. Now I'm relatively settled and would l...

It's a place for politics, current events, opinions, or just plain random stuff that doesn't fit into the gaming portion of the boards. They made it an 'approval only' board years back with a requirement for a minimum amount of posts and age, but now it seems there's no one to approve any new peopl...

The explanation also depends on where you will start your players. For example, if they start in China, your players will only know that Hell has come to Earth.

Heys guys and gals. I'm a new Dm to RIFTS, but it was my starting ttrpg game. So I just have to ask. What is the order of the books?

I think the biggest benefit for us fans will be that the kickstarter will show Kevin how hungry people are for a more comprehensive rules update of RIFTS. The last time I checked the kickstarter was nearing a quarter of a million dollars. If this does not wake Kevin up to the potential, I'm not sure...

I've had some xp with Savage Worlds and IMO, it is an OK system. I initially bought it because I really enjoyed the Rippers miniature game and wanted to roleplay in that setting. It is my go to generic system but in my own personal attempt at a RIFTS conversion, I gave up trying for a straight conve...

The Megaversal system has a bad rep so it may be a hard sell to your local gaming group. I found it easier to find people willing to try your games if you first try their games. Join a group at your FLGS and get to know them and them, you. If you manage to get a group together to play RIFTS, I recom...

I highly doubt Palladium would update their existing IPs over to the new system because that would invalidate tons of splatbooks. I see two ways of intrepreting this: 1. Our definition of a new system is not the same as Palladium and we may just get another incremental update (such as was the case w...

It depends on how destiny is interpreted. Some believe that they can make their own destiny. If so, Tolkeen would have a big edge knowing the future. Then there are those who think destiny is fixed and no matter what you do, the end result will be whatever its detiny was. Did you ever watch the Butt...

My recommendation would be to start out with the R:UE and Sourcebook One. From there add to collection as needed. If you want to create your own encounters, get the Conversion books (sort of the monster manual of RIFTS). If you want to ideas about certain locations, choose the WOrldbook that interes...

I vote C. If you look at the comma placement in that sentence, it indicates one of the three. If the comma was placed as such: Weapon Skills: W.P. Bo Staff, W.P. Sai-Paired or W.P. Nunchaku-Paired. It would indicate that you would get bo staff but that you had to choose between Sai and Nunchaku. So ...

I feel your pain! For me it is N&S. Although N&S did manage to get one supplement out, I was hoping for more, especially a more settings oriented book. As for Splicers, I did like some of the concepts such as the split personality computer but the big turn off for me was the RCCs?/OCCs. They...

I'm more interested in the pre-stated monsters for the group to fight. While I would like to have a few NPCs they are not essential and neither are the alternate races or classes.

I don't have the Aftermath book but why would the CS care about increase in pirate activity since it is mostly Quebec's problem? The CS never had use of a navy until Free Quebec joined the CS.

I like the direction that D&D 3.x took. In D&D, prestige classes took a generic class and focused it to fit a particular flavor. For example, if we were playing Forgotten Realm, the Magic User class would be remolded to fit the feel of playing, say a Red Wizard of Thay. Taking that same noti...
