Mr. Jays

You are quite welcome. I'm glad you and your players enjoyed it!

Mr. Jays

It depends. Mission 1 has more combat and has more planning required on the part of the players. It also has little supernatural content. Missions 2 and 3 allow some combat and include supernatural elements. If you want the players to get a better feel for what BTS is like, missions 2 and 3 are bett...

Mr. Jays

First off....Awesome! Second, when I have ran it at conventions, generally it takes 4 hours for the first mission. The second and third usually takes another 4 hours. So, you are looking at 8 hours total running time. Since you only have 4 available, I would just do the first mission Thank you, I w...

I have a really important question about Rifter #85 that I need answered as soon as possible. I heard that submitting something and having it accepted meant you would receive a free copy of the Rifter issue it appears in, but I haven't gotten anything in the mail yet while several others have. Was ...

It was for sale at that obscure weekend gathering

It's available in the store now

Mr. Jays

Well, the new Rifter is out. What does everyone think about it?

Mr. Jays

In years past, everyone that was GMing at the Open House had a tentative game schedule emailed to them by now. I haven't received one. Has anyone GMing at the Open House received one?

Mr. Jays

Submitted mine today! It's on! "Keep Calm and Carry on Fighting the Nightlords" Palladium Game Line: Nightbane Brief Description: The year is 1944, and the Second World War continues to dominate world events. You are members of the secret Nightbane organisation known as The Underground Ra...

Mr. Jays

I originally posted this for 2021, but I will ask again for this year. Anyone that hasn't submitted yet, needs to do so pronto. Here's what I will be running: 1. "Back to Basics (Coalition Edition)" - Rifts. We're going to Rift like it's 1990. In honor of Rifts 30th anniversary, this adven...

I have a similar problem. They said to call back before noon and ask to speak to the manager.

Mr. Jays

I am curious about what people want to play most at the Open House. I know some don't care. But, I am curious if the more popular games are ones people want to play the most, or if the less popular ones are more in demand because you don't often get a chance to play them.

Mr. Jays

Any new thoughts on this idea?

Mr. Jays

Who has submitted games for the Open House this year? I think I already submitted some when it was supposed to be last year. Do we need to submit again?

Mr. Jays

drewkitty ~..~ wrote:What I didn't like about the recent update was, other than implying that it would be out this year there was no ETA given for the book.

It said coming this Autumn in the update

Mr. Jays

I did get an email today saying I was selected.

Mr. Jays

Sent mine in!

Mr. Jays

Depends on the timeline. If you are not running present day, I would have notes about the period pay, price of items, etc. I also keep a list of all the pertinent NPCs of that adventure/campaign.

Mr. Jays

I plan on being there and and will probably run something at the Open Games table if anyone is interested

Seriously though your sight is why I got back into BTS in the first place and the only reason I started running it at cons. Well All's Quiet and Operation Minotaur helped.

Warshield, curious minds (me) want to know:

When and where did you run "All Quiet"?

How did it go?

Mr. Jays

Finally got a copy! Very special thanks to my dear friend Hendrik for making this post possible.

I have never played the other games you listed, so I cannot give you a compare and contrast, but as for the rest of your questions I can answer. Player Characters: You can play regular people with no special abilities if you want, the character class is called: Ordinary Person. You can also play mul...

I just received my copy today. I haven't had a chance to read it yet, just a flip through. But, what I see looks GREAT!

Mr. Jays

Hello everyone. I think it would be a great idea for Palladium to offer a limited edition dice set at next year's open house. The one on the D6 would be replaced with something like "2021 Palladium Open House" or the Rifts logo, or the Palladium dragon. The do this at GenCon every year. Wh...

I enjoy mr oberle's material but he thus far has been very pro cs.

@Jaymz: What has he written that you are referring to?

Mr. Jays

I absolutely agree with Warshield - there must be a better way than before. It is entirely unsatisfactory. But I don't know whether Palladium will consider it. I missed the last Open House, but there was definitely a lot of chat about this prior to the event last time - did anything change? No. Not...

Mr. Jays

I just signed up for all of the PB events and I was shocked when I realized you seemed to be doing most of them. I mean this really is a major BTS event so congratulations, we just need to get more books out for it. I'll be watching you...wow that came out creepy I'm all signed up so I'll be watchi...

Mr. Jays

With GenCon being cancelled this year, my anticipation for the Open House has increased. I am curious of what you are planning to run at the Open House? Right now I am planning on running the following: 1. "Legacy of the Dust" - BTS (a quasi-sequal to "All Quiet on the Western...What?...

Mr. Jays

The characters find out that they have clones in another facility. However, if they attempt to rescue them, they find that they have been genetically manipulated. Whatever the manipulation could be up to you: Stronger, Faster, Larger, psionic powers, ect. These clones have also been driven mad by th...

Kevin and I have talked about this very thing. I may even head to the Palladium office at some point for a week to help work on Beyond Arcanum.

This is the best news I've heard all day!

Mr. Jays

Copied from the BTS forum I might be a bit biased because I played this adventure at the last Palladium Open House. Thus, I also had the extra good fortune to see the writer himself excel, again, at GMing. I love „All Quiet on the Western... What?“. Consequently, I was chomping at the bits to see it...
