Set 4 is Undead , and Set 6 is Dwarves . I also did a set recently under my El Cheapo Products label, Fantasy Guards . I wasn't privy to the choosing of the product for that Bundle of Holding. All of the paper minis are available in the Palladium Books section at Drivethrurpg.com, including the Her...

Warwolf stole my original statement, about the family reunion. Palladium is in my blood. I long to hang with my brothers and sisters! I was just looking through my photos from GenCon and thinking "I can't wait to see these guys at the Open House!" There's only one thing I can complain abou...

MADMANMIKE

And now that you mentioned it hopefully it doesn't get a S&D like Mad dog did with the mega list. This nonsense about Palladium hasn't had teeth for 20 years... Also, Cease starts with a C, it would be abreviated as "C&D".. Lastly, mrloucifer is Steven Dawes, who is a freelancer f...

I've got a series of Megaverse Character sheets, and Heroes Unlimited and Aliens Unlimited versions, all fillable.

My day job (evenings actually, 3-11PM) is in assisted living, so I work out of a house. This house is in a college town and the house next door is rental property that's been empty for over a year. A couple of weeks ago some students moved in, and several times when I've gone out to get something ou...

Savage Rifts had 4,238 Backers, and Savage Worlds is a Minis based RPG rule set..

looking at the maps that come with it, i'd say the default scenarios might be set in the Burbs. old style armor is more common with the troops used in such locations in the CS. plus lets face it.. the old style skull armor is more well known than the CWC suits, by players. Bingo. ISS uses old style...

Alright, I ran three games at Gencon, four hours each, all designed to be part of the Tombs of Gersidi manuscript. All of the player reviews were positive and on Friday I actually had a four players from Thursday try to get back in (two did as I had two extra characters). I learned a few hard lesson...

If anyone is going to GenCon, I have three games on the registry, all playtests for the Tombs.. The Smuggler's Pass - RPG1691751 The Secrets of Castle Instax - RPG1691752 The Tombs of Gersidi - RPG1691753 Bummer, can't make it to GenCon this year. Sorry to hear that. There are still 3 tickets for T...

Deconstructing the Sea Titan with your GM might be the answer too.. They became Sea Titans after being exposed to a mysterious radiation from a rift... I'm letting a player use the powers from the Sea Titan to make a different character entirely on the grounds that anybody could potentially be mutat...

MADMANMIKE

All of this advice is excellent. For my part, I say if the GM gets a good handle on the setting they're going to use, the rest becomes a matter of logic if-thans. If the players do this, than that will happen. With that you can run a game on minimal planning as long as your players don't just sit th...

You might find my Minion rules useful for generating them, in my sig.

Men of Magic has been turned in, possibly up by the end of the week.

Ratings and reviews on DrivethruRPG.com are very much appreciated!

Hey MADMANMIKE, have you considered making paper miniatures for Chaos Earth? I would love to have minis of the Glitterboy and Glitter SAMAS Well, as I do paper minis for all of my commissioned characters, technically I have; I did this one earlier this year: m with some Air Force armor in there too...

Between the Shadows is one of my favorite books, hands down. Also check out The Rifter #9 , which has a great article expanding on Astral Domains and some pretty cool O.C.C.'s like the Astral Junkie and the Astral Knight. Nightlands is a great book, but as was mentioned it is very setting specific t...

Thanks. Men At Arms finished and turned in with the other two sets, could be in the store as early as tomorrow.

MADMANMIKE

I redid the Deadboys, and those and the Adventurers are done and waiting for Wayne to go up; I'm about done with Men at Arms, and have about half a set each of Magic Users and Psychics. Yesterday I did the bulk of the work building an NG-Samson, and I've already got a CS SAMAS and a Glitterboy finis...

22 hr flight time is just a bit too much unfortunately. Good luck to those going! I've taken Coach trains to the Open House a few times; the seats are more comfortable than a plane or bus, and there's plenty of room to go for a walk and stretch your legs... Don't think of it as 22 hours cramped on ...

I have three games on the registry, all related; I'm reworking the Tombs of Gersidi for 2nd Edition, and these games are the outline/playtest.

Dirigibles have not been added to Palladium Fantasy, but have been described with Airship Construction and Combat rules in the very first RPG book I ever purchased, Mutants Down Under for After the Bomb.

Meh, any mage could easily cast any spell in 1st edition. Wall of Thoth was no harder than Blinding Flash So claiming that it is 'obviously a poorly thought out decision' is only true if your conclusion is entailed in the premise. I.e. if we assume that the spell was intended to do one thing, and t...

It means the Madman decided he needed to light a fire under his own *** to get working on it..

See, what you just mentioned is my issue with the place. It's got fantastic loot, from the Chalice of Dragonwright to the deathstone to Deathkiss, but there's about 1 paragraph on each item, and that's kind of it. It just felt disjointed to me, like it was a dungeon thrown together for a party to c...

Not sure how I missed this thread.. I'm working on the update for the Tombs and have been thinking of putting together a package of battle maps to use with minis for this...

I've always ignored the Trance times in my games; meditation is for replenishing one's energy, not focusing it for use in the first place. The Healer and the Shaman class were both hobbled with this build-up time..

Since becoming disabled I've been blessed to have a job where I can wear Palladium shirts every day. It's to the point where I wear non-Palladium shirts when I'm relaxing with the family simply because my wife is tired of looking at them.

MADMANMIKE

I should be headed up on Wednesday with Warwolf to work the booth and run four games.

MADMANMIKE

It's not mine.. nobody has a dice bag like mine!

MADMANMIKE

Question: Can the shirts simply be made in a print on demand fashion where the color of the t-shirt and the color of the screenings can be customized? I'm afraid I don't know much about this type of thing but I feel like I've come across a good number of sights who allow you to choose those options...

No, I'm still offering $25 commissions for Open House attendees. Check your notes at DA, I've sent a preliminary final on your Lemurian..

Message received, and thanks for the plug.

Well, the paper minis seemed to be a hit, as did the dungeon floor tiles I made for my Game Saturday afternoon (since someone walked off with them while I was running one of my games).

It was great to see you Mike! You are an inspiration.

Glad you made it. I should point out that my 4AM is 5AM in Michigan, so I'm going back to bed.

MADMANMIKE

I made it home and in bed by 4AM today. 3 hours of sleep and up to take the kids to school.. I'd say it's then back to bed.

Everybody post a note that you made it home safe!

Kathy caters the event; I had a ham sandwich, meatballs and mostacholi.
