Unfortunately, while a Juicer is more difficult than a typical guy with a gun, there are far more complicated OCC's out there. Welcome to the stupidity.

I would humbly suggest that it is technically impossible to play Rifts without house rules.

Rifts - Ultimate Edition. Pretty much gave up after that

Better late than never I suppose.

Not really any use to myself now, I already have PDF's of my entire library.

Intending no disrespect to how insanely busy I'm sure their days have been while Shipping Like Demons, it is strange that we're now nearly 3.5 weeks without an update. Even just a "US shipments done, Canada done, ROW in progress, send help and pockey" kinda snippet. They could even just c...

I barely have enough time to play anymore, I have zero interest in having to paint before play, and even less interest in assembly before play.

Fantasy Flight Games, X-Wing, nuff said.

Well, unless you said Armada ;P

Not quite, owning copies of something you already own is legal, it doesn't actually matter where those copies came from. Country may vary

For me this is a moot point, i have a pdf version of my entire palladium library.

Does anybody know of any single voting system that catagorises a "Don't Know" "Abstain" "Forgot" into an automatic "Yes" or "No' vote ?

Apart from say the Mugabe system ?

Kevin S, and Palladium by extension, really are the modern day version of "The Boy who cried Wolf"

I actually won $10.00 over this fiasco. A freind of mine introduced me to Ninja Divisions kickstarter, and I was about to jump on board until I saw the Palladium Books link. I bet my mate $10 it would be horrendiously late. Spent the money over at FFG

"Editorial Glitches" would imply editing of some sort, we both know that this never happens. This is an incorrect statement. Well, flippant offhand statement aside. There is plenty of evidence to the contrary. Rimmer, I think what GK is simply stating is that Editing does transpire, just ...

I personally, like to draw things with after market modifications. Hell, if I think something would look cool held together with duct tape. I try to stay true to the text, but that doesn't always jibe with what looks cool. All I'm saying is that the text is canonical for how a certain thing starts ...

At least to me, Illustration accuracy matter: Lots. Some people just like to visualise things, I'm one of them. My personal little bug bears 1.

Is it possible to clarify the question, without having to reference another game line?

Short answer "Meh, PB editing and clarifications, whatcha gonna do?"

Rimmer

Editorial glitches are just one hiccup that can occur. More often than not it could be nothing more than simple oversight by the artist. We can get an idea in our head, not think anything of it and just put something in because it would look cool with fact checking and the next thing you know you'r...

It could very well just be a statement of fact. For all we know the book is already at the printer and they cannot fix it. To say they won't does put active intent on it...but they haven't made the effort to fix the error in the Heroes Unlimited book in the past 25 years. Why would they now? Just b...

A skelebot may cost more, but is far better. Recharges a long clip (30 shots) in 90 seconds, very portable, and can defend itself if need be. Which doesn't help when you're making a shop in a kingdom. Can't really get customers in to go refill at the freaky death-bot. Nothing a can of paint and a m...

What would happen if you "juiced" said were creature and or vampire, scooped him up and did one of the following.

1. Put him in a small MDC container, water tight of course
2. Use him to water a tree
3. Seperate the parts
4. Pour him into a river

Had a Wolfen Pc with a high PP (About 21 I think ?) plus the "targeting" skill, coupled with giant sized weapons (plus 1 die from memory) his longbow was one of the most deadly things in the game.

Error is the same, don't hold your breath for any changes, PB is somewhat notorious for letting editing mistakes lie for years at a time, mainly due their love of "Copy N Paste" style writing.

Rimmer

Psionic Based, use ME

Magic Based, use PE

Supers Based, use whatever method comes up in the description. eg "Holographic Memory Projection" pg 275 HU.

Tech Based, use whatever method comes up in the description. Naruni Body Armour camoflage feild.

Good eye on catching such a silly editing mistake. Unfortunate that your observation was met with snark.

You said "editing" [giggle] thats a dirty word around here

One of my last games was for a group of CS grunts, they requested one Skelebot for the group and used him as a portable recharge station, he could recharge a long e-clip (30 shots) in 90 seconds.

Ditto

On your marks, get set...........................CHARGE !!!!!!!!!!!

Put one nuke powered skelebot in every group of 12, he simply becomes the recharge bot. An interesting design modification, given Naruni Enterprises has that line of robotic weapons (as shown in Rifts: Mercenaries) that run on batteries but can recharge themselves off of 'master' robots it's certai...
