I've always thought that the heavy Irish Catholic presence would create a very strong resistance to the Night Lords
I could see masses were the priest would call the presence of Satan ie the nightlords strong and gather their flock for war

csbioborg

good luck!!!

To defend the emperor, you would need 24/7 astral overwatch, at least 2 high level mind melters on guard at all times. 2 to 4 dog boys on watch lead by at least one psi-stalker. probaly at least 1 of each type of psionic user at all times at least with range of him. 2 high level rcsg specialists, w...

I definitely see the CS as being pro life
There whole motto is saving and protecting human life
I can't see them spending all that time fighting heretics and demons
while not protecting their young within there borders
moreover they need more troops for the military

csbioborg

Archie Zero is in the South East if you read DIno Swamp you'll see it
I think the second one
by rifts earth it is offline but still operable

csbioborg

well I'd transition to dragon juicer the best since I have been playing with the society of sages for a long time

csbioborg

even a grunt is going to have a lot of off time if he is in the rear since
he is mostly going to be a guard
one assumes that they'd rotate between the front and rear every couple years or so

csbioborg

Coming from a military family and military background...along with four years JROTC I can honestly say that when you are focused on Military...your time to really build outside skills are limited. i learned html while on active duty on my own time. ok, literacy is harder, but still the point is you...

In Rifts canon, there is only one way to get a familiar. That is through the "familiar link" spell. This can be found on page 128 of the RBoM Or on page 217 in RUE. The NB:TtGD book has a different way, for a mage, to get a familiar. This way was built on/expandid in one of the rifters. I...

so what happened?

A jet plane flying at mach 3 a few miles up is not going to be noticed in time by a bug Agreed. There is a listed limit on how high they can fly, and a 4000' range for their weapons. High-flying bombers can hit them with impunity, although there's only so much you can accomplish with bombs. this is...

csbioborg

I guess its up to the DM
but I'd see the mage getting some powers if it were done well
if not he gets turned into a vamp because the AI's splinter essence is still in the heart

csbioborg

A jet plane flying at mach 3 a few miles up is not going to be noticed in time by a bug

this is about containment not beating them
that's the whole point if your the CS and your weakened by Tolkeen
you want the bugs to not want to expand
while you regroup

csbioborg

if 35-55% is the actual number that is really good If you kill off half of them its going to take awhile fo them to comeback and they won't be worried about CS territory for awhile that's the thing if you drop bombs from a miles up you haven't commited to anything its not like the bugs know it was y...

csbioborg

Okay assuming that the CS can't make a really good bunker buster let's just assume they nuke the hell out of the bug lands killing all the surface bugs whatever now the bug lands are a radiated mess wouldn't all the bugs leaving the hive get radiation poisoning. I am not suggesting that this would k...

The Grunt is intellectually held back by the CS, deliberately kept ignorant. The vagabond has to learn or die. So for the first 18 years of life these guys were doing nothing eh? Not working on a farm learning the trade? Not working in their dad's mechanic shop? Not running wild and learning the st...

Dr. Doom III wrote:A Vagabond has nothing besides his skills. A grunt has a lot. It`s what passes for balance in Rifts.

the GM can toss him a suit of armor and rifle
he can't give the CS grunt the same
from a story perspective it breaks verisimilitude

csbioborg

a vagabond is meant to be well a vagabond
just a regular joe that's picked up a variety of skills while bumming around
a grunt really is just a regular guy that went to boot

unlike a llw or cyberknight that obviously needs to train on just their skill for years prior

csbioborg

a grunt should get as many skills as a vagabond because he is basically a vagabond that went to a three month boot camp

csbioborg

so what would happen if the mage
incorprated the vampires heart into a pacemaker and then put it inside of him in order to try and get the vampires powers

csbioborg

As you know the CS grunt gets the bottom of the barrel in terms of skills bonuses etc the main arguement is the CS grunt dosen't get trained for as long as most OCCs eg the cyber knight or llw takes years to get to that level well that's a valid point the CS grunt is sorta the equivalent of the mode...

just summon rats get a wood chipper and repeat until you get enough ppe Lol, thats just awesome, quick question though... Would it actually work? Look up Mack (the moderator) posts on TW he has effectively invented game legal perpetual resurrection machines to name a few the old rats and the woodch...

Gentlemen this has been explained in the film Legend already I see not the point of debate when given clear and convincing evidence

Its been awhile since reading Quebec but I doubt they kick all their phyics out
that's 25 percent of their population
the only time anyone has even attempted that was the Khmer Rogue
and they were not exactly funcitoning as a society

csbioborg

the only canon example of a NPC getting into CHit town is a vampire in the burbs that has gotten in a few times to explore

these are all questions that could be answered in a WB chi town

I really would like to know the motivation behind not writing a Chi town and Lazlo WBs

csbioborg

i'm not so sure a bow would actually deal your supernatural PS damage. as has been noted many times, supernatural PS does mega-damage because it's supernatural, not because it's so much stronger than anything else. actually, it's the inverse. SNPS is stronger than normal PS (just look at the lift a...

okay this is completely out there but here is one for a knight of the round table I used it for Sir Kay my favorite of the bunch (no disney did not do a accurate job) the historical Kay problay died fighting the Romans in my rifts he left after not being able to convince his liege that Merlin was up...

csbioborg

that is far and you'd need someone with a beat up pick up truck that speaks a little spanish anyway

csbioborg

a fallen cosmo knight mind melter with hydrokineis
a murder wraith as the other thread mentions
some sort of chi master with the ability to take out negative chi beings

and a high level ludicrous mage for general offensive attacks

csbioborg

more than 8 I will tell you that assuming they don't turn into fog and run like anybody sensible

csbioborg

the scale is a tad different is I remember right
its lbs vs tons

csbioborg

I really ignore alignment and just go with character descriptions because there are sure of heck of a lot of CS troopers that with miscreant alignments that are decribed as willing to lay down their lives for the CS I just except that their being a whole school of study on human behavior putting dow...

csbioborg

A rune weapon with that being in it .. would be above an beyond more powerful then 99% of the most powerful rune weapons in exsistance .. Not likely, even greatest rune weapons severely damp down the power. Just look at the Tarnoz (or however it's spelled) Crystal. It is one of the few (maybe only)...

csbioborg

Honestly considering every High lord worth his salt has a greatest rune weapon it should have some epic powers at least on bar with castrake

csbioborg

You know the thing with alignments is they make things real black and white
oh now he is diabloic I can't work with him
In real life you think that's the guy that gave me enough suppresive fire to run for my life
I know he is a crazy sob but hey he's on our team

csbioborg

WHile I don't play much bug land for my group is a radioactive wasteland of bugs skelebots and not much else
the CS uses bunker busters nukes with a intial nuke shaped chargeto drill and a secondary nuke to kill
but the bugs burrow deeper and get more resistant to the radiation every year

csbioborg

This was addressed in the bug book. The short answer is, tht the hives are built out of MDC resin and even if they dropped nukes in the middle, it would just nock over some towers nd **** off hte bugs. 95% or something are deep underground and safe from the nukes. To really do damage you'd have to ...

csbioborg

yes only because I want some retcon of the basklisk those guys don't get enough love common they are the same size as some dragons and get a tenth the mdc screwed up life span how else get 600 years because they tend to get killed but they could live to 2000 get the guys a break I also want a hydra ...

csbioborg

That was my point (( of the post where I actually opened the book people had been citing)), that it's internally self-contradictory. That in one section it clearly states "This means most humans and humanoid visitors from other dimensions are seen as D-bees. Mutants ,cyborgs and superhumans fr...

So we are entering PA 110 and we've got ourselves a minion war apparently but in WB Xitixic (however you spell that) the bugs were just about to make that push into both CS territory and Lazlo territory which would start the great bug war I don't remember off the top of my head but I think that book...

Sure but I could not see that being as efficient as a bow and arrow assuming the environment has md materials to produce bows and arrows. Even in our real history bows and arrows were actually much more efficient than early guns depending on terrain. Note the Chinese never developing them to fight t...

csbioborg

I don't see how weapons would develop in a society comprised of MDC being. Assuming they didn't just become that way by entering rifts earth and are MDC to begin with where would be the impetus to develop any beyond bow and arrows. Black powder would bounce right off them and with out that then were...

If everyone on Earth ganged up on Atlantis, they could take it back. Splynn could easily destroy every power bloc on Earth single-handedly but he wouldn't.
