You guys should let them know its about NYC. Hopefully, they willpromote it, and if they want me to come in to the city to sign books or whatever, I'll gladly do it. Please let them know. Thanks guys.

So um, Kid Galactus, now that you've been given a crust of bread and some water are you ready to crank out Triax 2? I might even spring for some real food if its out by november.
also listen to the people on these forums, we want our lazlo! I cant speak for everyone but I know I love city books like merctown and splynn dimensional market and even arzno that focus on a single location without trying to have a huge plot.

I'm working on TRIAX 2, but lazlo is not by book. That is Carmen Bellaires project.
As for NYC, I'm serious Argos and bookWyrm. Let them know that I'm only a NJ transit fare away.

Yes, I meant the Strategist in NYC. It's the closest one to me (Since I live out on LI) & if I ask my local comic/gaming shop owner to pick it up, he'll get it, saving me the train fare. It may take a little longer to get to me, but it should be fine.

There are limited signed printers proofs in Dayton. Not the actual book, though.

I can't make it to Origins - but if I could buy one, I'd pay at least a hundred bucks for it...budget be damned!
I'd probably drop a grand or more for the original of the manuscript submitted for BTS.

It actually sounds cool - Mad-ah-ven sorta sounds like a germanic fantasy name

I'm very much looking forward to this book. But at only at 128 pages, do I smell the hints of Madhaven 2? I hope this one sells well enough for a part 2.

Here are more questions! huzzah!
is the mystic knight, being expanded, rewritten or explored more in depth (mybe not as much as the cyber knight was in coalition wars 4, or the dog boy in Lone star, just something "added"
roughly how many new RCC's/OCC's are there, I know "new" one's have slowed down, but between china one, adventures in the dinosaur swamp ad arzno, we have maybe one or two RCC's (and trying not to count the shumper or the scoop shovel monkey or whatever)

I've been meaning to ask If you covered the massive wealth that is in NY if you find it. Like the Manfra, Tordella & Brookes, Inc. (“MTB”) vault facility located at 90 Broad Street, New York City. One of the largest Licensed Depository for the storage of gold, platinum and palladium deliverable against the Exchange’s Gold, Platinum and Palladium Futures Contracts.
Meaning Billions Of credits waiting for whoever finds the vault. Then there is the diamond/gem exchange vault. We are talking more credits than you can haul in a behemoth. Then there are the advanced research facilities like Brookhaven National Laboratory and NARA. And the one i think would the most important would be labs at the University at Albany Some of the most advanced nanoTec research one the planet is being done there. DARPA probably camps out in there lobbies. These treasure troves could change the face of rifts earth.

All the wealth of the worlds is in there!!!
The authors don't get really specific with how much you can salvage...suffice it to say a GM can put as much or as little there as he wants, but Madhaven is a VERY VERY VERY nasty place, so if you find tons of gold or treasure, it is VERY difficult to remove it.
The dangers in this book are very unique, and I am not going to give it away for you...
Suffice it to say, if you are a godling there is danger and if you are a vagabond, there is danger. It is a bit of Rifts Main Book, a hint of After the Bomb and a whole lot of new flavor.

Oh yes, how dare they write a book about a ruined city 300 years in the future where magic, psionics and demons exist when they don't live in the city.
