Forget it Juce, Rappanui has shown how antagonistic he is towards any rule that differs from the first printing of the first rulebook, so we need to stop feeding the Troll.

So what rules are you calling house rules?

And what is it you are declaring as the criteria for calling a house rule?

Are you saying anything outside the rule book and Errata of your selection is a house rule, regardless of other books it may appear in?

Rappanui wrote:Just off the top of my head, There was a Leyline modifier for psionics of +1d6, 2d6.. This is actually not stated anywhere, And it only shows up in the description of Burster powers. It's not reiterated anywere else.
There were other such modifiers in each table that are Just plain old house rules, with no pages to back them up.


I have read the document, and I have read multiple books, every rule is backed up by what I have read. Your insistence that it is not in the books, but rather are house rules, combined with you inability to provide any specific examples leads me to believe your claims are inaccurate mistakes at best, and I will not state what they are at worst.

As to your (multiple) assertions that the power increase on or near Ley Lines and Nexus Points are house rules and not stated anywhere, might I direct you to page 366 of the RUE. Second Column, item #5, near the bottom, entitled 'I.S.P. boost at ley lines', where it details drawing ISP from ley lines, and an increase in the potency of psychic powers both near and on ley lines or nexus points.

These are official rules, clearly stated, and not 'house-rules'.
As an FYI, there is similar text under the Mind Melter in the RUE and several classes in Psyscape, not just the Burster.

So as you can see, there are pages to back them up, and they are not, as you have stated multiple times, 'plain old house rules'.

Rappanui wrote:I just gave a specific example, The power increase for psionic powers <b>was</b> 50 and 100%. In the rewrite of the burster, the flame aura is given +1D6, +2d6, .. The GM shield writer decided that this a power mod that applied to all psionic powers.
There are other instances of this happening Through out the screen.


Incorrect, it DOES apply to every psionic power, as stated on page 366 of the Rifts: Ultimate Edition.
Also, specifically related to damage it adds One Die or Two Dice to damage, they could be D4s, or D6s, or D8s, or what have you. Again, this applies to all powers, as per page 366 of the Rifts: Ultimate Edition.
The writer of the GM Shield did not decide this, it is stated, in black and white, as an official rule, not a house rule.

So your cited example is invalid. Please cite another.

I was going to answer this especific example, but you already do it. Thanks for the clarification.

What it is in the GM shield is a mix between RBM and RUE where the last didn't covered that specific rule, such as those from leaping (IIRC).
