ApocalypseZero

Looking for interested players/GM's in the area. No real requirements or criteria outside of able to get yourself to the place we play. Don't even need books, just need to be interested in playing.

ApocalypseZero

Try Option 3: Target under the "Center/Hole" of the Template receives FULL damage. All others effected take HALF damage from Blast. Add that to the normal rules. It eliminates the whole DF issue (in a way) and mitigates the absurd damage missiles can lay down. It also is the LEAST intrusiv...

ApocalypseZero

A solution to this is to either have a video tutorial or written examples from Jeff Burke or Carmen Bellaire.

ApocalypseZero

I want to clear something up. When I first started playing RRT and when missiles were fired, whether in a Volley or Single, we'd only roll ONE (1) Die for the attack, regardless of Missiles fired. This was fast, but also felt very lacking. The all or nothing of the missile shots left something to be...

ApocalypseZero

The big issue is that BLAST is so wordy and modifies ANTI-MISSILE, MISSILE, and VOLLEY (# & X) to a point of confusion and contradiction. It needs to be kept simple. BLAST should be treated like all the other MISSILES and even with those with VOLLEY. Only difference is the Template used for BLAS...

ApocalypseZero

I am not sure if I will be able to make the Open House this year. (Got to do some planning). BUT if I do, I will run an RTT Tourney there. Depending on turn out, it could be an all day event or spread out over the whole thing. Let me get my planning in order. If I do, you'll see a post here about ru...

ApocalypseZero

Each Missile gets its own roll. 4 Missiles, 4 rolls. If all 4 hit, Inescapable. Blast missiles (even just 1) require a Natural 6 to Shoot Down (even with Anti-Missile/Missiles). Determine Scatter for any Miss Missile. Target and Roll like Volley. Scatter, Damage, and Shoot Down like Blast. Blast rul...

So per new FAQ, Grell (a founding member of the Malcontents with Azonia and Khyron) has NO USE except the points waste?......

Grell SHOULD be allowed to use his Reinforcement rule with the squadron he's assigned to. That, or there needs to be rules for a Malcontent Grell that differs.

ApocalypseZero

3. If a Special Character is added to a figure with the Life is Cheap special ability does it lose that special ability? No, Life is Cheap means that the unit does not generate command points and can be killed by friendlies. If a character is killed such as Pirion-Galarr he is not brought back with...

15. Can Grell's Special Ability (Allows Reinforcements to any unit destroyed from his Squadron within 8" without need of LOS. Works in ANY Mecha he is piloting.) usable with the Malcontents Faction? (Requires Grell to be in a Squadron with Regult Pods or Infantry to be usable.) 16. Can Special ...

ApocalypseZero

Okay, sitting down with the rules without the pressure of playing a game, I see where my eyes skipped over something on Blast Missiles and Anti-Missiles. Anyone hit by a Blast Missile can make an Anti-Missile roll. The roll needs a 6 to succeed, but if ONE mecha succeeds the roll, NO damage is done....

ApocalypseZero

My bigger issue with Blast is with Missiles..... Why does a Missile with Blast suddenly cause my Anti-Missile Systems to be as effective as my non-AMS weapons? Just because it is Blast? And let's be real, Blast would happen upon impact, so it's still a missile like any other to be shot down, but bec...

ApocalypseZero

Anything with the Volley or Volley X ability can choose to divide its number of missiles fired between multiple targets or have them all hit 1 target. If all missiles are shot at 1 target, it's ONE roll for the whole volley. Phalanx has Volley 4 and Blast. Serahaug-Regults have Volley X and Blast. I...

ApocalypseZero

Anyone else finding Blast Missiles (Phalanx, I'm looking at you) a serious pain in the butt? Volley of 4 are Inescapable and then Shooting down even with Anti-Missiles , requires a 6! I've watched 2 games of Phalanx fire cripple opponents on turn one just because of this. Is there an errata to this?...

ApocalypseZero

i didnt get a UEDF brawler squad card with my battle cry did anyone else get that card ? As far as I've seen we'll have to purchase the Tomahawk Destroid box to get both the Brawler and Heavy Destroid Squadron cards. Please see first post as I have updated the information. The list I've typed out i...

ApocalypseZero

Sorry, all the cards that have models in Wave One are out. Malcontents are a little tricky. I'll make a full list soon. I found myself missing many of the Spartan based cards. (Brawler Squad, Heavy Destroid Squad,)

ApocalypseZero

Hey all, if you are missing cards from these lists above, email kickstarter@palladiumbooks.com with the information. Everyone should have the above cards if you got a Battle Cry or more since that came with all the models/cards that are out for Wave One. And can we get this sticky'd so the resource ...

Cool, I seen these charts elsewhere, but did not know the Official-ness of them. These should really be somewhere handy....might just post them....

ApocalypseZero

Sorry Mike, while that link is nice....not Official. it may be correct, bit I am looking for something with the Palladium and/or Ninja stamp of authenticity. But, it was things like this that started cluing me into thinking I was missing cards. Looks like the ones I am missing would revolve around D...

ApocalypseZero

I wonder if the KS backers will get the cards that were not sent out in the Wave One pledges, but are in the retail packages? yes, they will. But I am trying to compile an official list to see what is missing. (for everyone to check against.) I already talked to Wayne about it. I have not seen any ...

ApocalypseZero

where are you guys finding these lists of Cards from? You're own collection?

ApocalypseZero

Axiod, I have what you list, but the ones Fishkiller lists I am missing. Not sure if there were certain cards released with Battle Cry, Showdown, etc.... I got a Showdown. I have at least 1 of everything on Axiod's list. I would like to see an OFFICIAL list to check against. I'm curious as to what o...

ApocalypseZero

I've been seeing some different cards listed around the internet and I was looking for a roster of Core, Support, and Special cards. Is there anywhere out there an OFFICIAL list of these? I ask because I feel like I may be missing some cards (and yet, have an excess of ones I can't use). So, anyone ...

ApocalypseZero

I need my likeness done as a Demon so this can be settled.

ApocalypseZero

Apologize to those two. I was glad to avoid your stench....

It's all good. **** happens and such. I got to hang with everyone a fair bit anyways.

Either I'm a Giant, Ogre, or Sasquatch. You all need to make up your minds.

I guess my worry about having a crap game on Sunday is for naught. I keep seeing love for it. Perhaps it was all due to Hendrik for his amazing juicer escapades.

ApocalypseZero

Glad I could give some people 'one last hurrah' before the weekend ended. I was feeling it Monday morning though. Thanks for coming to America and being a part of the event, Hendrik.

ApocalypseZero

There's prep involved?.....Novel Idea...

This year, my games are a little 'prep light'. Only thing I need to do is get a map print out. This is a nice reminder to do so.

I think you might be confusing me with my much shorter but more hairier twin, Mr. Oberle.

All Your Puppychow Belongs To Me!

I guess we could set up some 'bum fights' to try to win it from me. The question on that is: who's going to fight for 10th in line, for the other nine to wear me down?

ApocalypseZero

I love the out-of-context quoting and then the self-gratification, however.... But instead of coming here and contributing a respectful post using the 'World As Written', you choose to almost enforce that what you do in your game is now 'World As Written'. We all here have played games where things ...

Makes me wonder if its possible to have magical irrigation of sorts to divert some energy from a line to power your magic based town or wizard tower.

Check the Rifts Game Master's Guide for a map. There are plenty of them in the back of the book. However, that particular region has yet to be covered closely by any books and finding a good/detailed map (a canonical one, that is) may be imposible.

First off: To answer the question of how to evict Splynncryth, it'd be through business. Make it un-worthy to do business on Rifts Earth and he'll go away. But that means ruining all business.

Sunday By this time, I am not completely sure of everything that was going on. I know I met with Josh Hilden, one part of the driving force behind Dead Reign.

Friday Well, technically, I started off the day by running a game at the hotel, but we'll use those little sleep breaks to denote the days.
