Mmm....3 months later and no response to my application. What's the time between sending in an application and receiving a message?

AdmTolval

Just sent mine application in.

AdmTolval

Looking forward to seeing your work online.

There is either an oversight in Dimension Book 13, pg. 102 or a great deal! The pilot's survival pack comes with a PSE-7000 with the bio-unit upgrade and costs 15,000 credits.

Atorian Gravity Guns. The Kreeghor has their "Horn Cannons", lasers, and GR weapons which do pitiful damage. But again, they would have to rely on their numerical superiority in fighters. Personally, I don't play the rule of "non-MDC in a SDC world". Some may disagree with me but...

AdmTolval

SDC to MD and MD to SDC the damage would be the same except for Missiles. Rifts short-range, medium-range, and long-range missiles would do x10 more damage (i.e. Short-range plasma missile does 2D6x10 MD or 2D6x100 SDC in the HU universe and a Cruise missile's 4D6x100 MD would be 4D6x1000 MD). Also ...

Hometown is Asheville (Ash). So I'll be in a fade town if I moved back there before 2098. Currently living in Ho Chi Minh City so I have to wait for Rifts Southeast Asia to come out in 2040 to see what happens

I just finished my student teaching (World History and Civics & Economics) so I understand where you are coming from. My little pet peeve about Underseas is that Karl should have been an Admiral, not a Captain. Huge ship with that large number of men serving onboard should report to an Admiral. ...

To each their own opinion. But the books make no mention of a President for the New Navy. I can see why one can read it that way with "the society and culture based on the Democratic Republic of the old American Empire" (p. 108) I would disagree as everyone in the New Navy, "military ...

AdmTolval

Just wanted to put my 2 cents in and clear a matter up. In Underseas, the New Navy is govern by Fleet Command (p. 96) and Captain Nemo is the leader of it (p. 107). There is not a President of the New Navy so if Captain Nemo wanted to make a treaty with the NGR, unofficial or official, he would have...

Reminds me of a campaign I once ran. Mind you it was Palladium Fantasy and not Rifts but this part was funny. We had a mix group of different characters that I won't bore you with. They were all about 2nd level when they went on the Arms of Nagastor (probably spelled wrong) adventure. While journeyi...

Well, I thought about possible nightmare scenerios for Prosek. One could be some issue or event splits the thinking of the government. Of course, the loyalists would stick with Prosek but what if Gen. Holmes joined the other side? Holmes is not one of the elite. He is a war hero. A grunt's grunt. Hi...

Ooops! You're right. Disney Land is in California. You said Disney Land and it registered Disney World for some reason. Same ideas though about the land. Instead of limestone, the fault lines could have erupted and caused it to cave in. A ratling is a race of humanoid rats. You can find them in the ...

Chi-Town does have long-range missile defenses. It's in the Mercs book. Tells why a player group can't take a couple of air castle bombers and bomb the city.

Okay, my suggestion would be to only get info on the most popular rides that have been there since the park open. Remember, there will still be another 88 years of changes to the park before the coming of the rifts. And on top of that, at least 300 years of erosion, nature taking over, etc. I highly...

I watched it Monday night and all I could think of was where's NEMA in all of this

I liked it. If I knew anything about video editing, I would use a big portion of this movie to make a homemade Rifts movie.

I was in a campaign years ago playing a Anti-Robot Spec. Headhunter. I had lost my Smiling Jack PA and had built a hybrid SAMAS and Arkhon PA with my other character a True Atlaneon Rogue Scientist.

Years ago, I was a GM of a campaign with a REF Veritech Pilot and a CS Military Specialist.

I can understand some of the problems introducing players from Rifts to Recon. Rifts: Player - "While wearing my MDC armor, I leap on the grenade", GM - "You take the damage, stand up and dust yourself off." Recon: Player - "While wearing my flak armor, I leap on the grenade...

Actually, it's Montagnards. The Recon game gives an adventure that puts the player on the other side as a VC working as a maid at a base. Some of the ways they smuggled weapons and even made them are amazing. The exhibits at the Ho Chi Minh Museum in Saigon are educational. The VC made good work of ...

Don't mess with their clerics or you could get cursed with "Donald's Incomprehesile Speech" or "Goofy's Accident Prone" curses. May you be blessed with "Mickey's Big Ears" to hear the dangers in the night.

There was a Deadlands: Hell on Earth adventure in a dime novel that dealt with a Disney based amusement park. Being Deadlands, it had a horror side to it but the best part was the manical undead owner's head that was attached to a spider ride that attacks the party at the end. Mark Hall wrote East C...

S.D.C. is the annoying little stat one has to get over 100 or they will die if something looks at them hard when they don't have any armor left

L-20 just because it's been in all of the major Palladium games; Rifts, Robotech, and Mechanoids. In Robotech, look at he LR-20 stats. It's still called the L-20 in Mechanoids.

Best: The old style SAMAS

Worst: While I like the new body armor, I have to agree with a gamer friend that the "leg warmers" look really bad.

It's a good book. I've got two copies of it plus I've found the original Myrmidon Press book with it's own rules. I'm planning to use it in a Robotech game that takes place in 2085.

Okay, I missed read it. I saw the 135 mph speed of the thing and thought jet pack when I saw glider. Still, it's a good step in the right direction.

I using use an average of 10 credits a gallon for gas in large towns or those close to oil refineries. It can go up to 20 or more credits depending on the size of the town, distance between it and other cities, and the mood I'm in

The Super Alpha. After the Vindicator, this is my favorite Veritech.

The Vindicator

It wasn't the fastest.
It wasn't the most heavily armored.
It wasn't the most armed.

It was the biggest.
And it was my first Veritech.

I just got the new book today and saw it is no longer in the game.
I will miss it.

I think it's in the new sourcebook 1 but I read that the UAR-1 was descended from one of the NEMA robot designs. I can't remember which one, I don't have my books handy right now.
