I would like to see a push to have more non-combat adverturers in the new books. More OCC like the rogue scientist and the operator. I would also like to more skills like Resist Torture(Splicers) That add bonuses over character development rather than all at once.

If you are a person of exseptional PS and you jump in a power armor, you use the strength of the power armor. If you jump in something like the Gladius and you have greater strength than the armor, you should be able to do your PS damage,but thats just my opinion.

Shadow Wyrm

I'd have to say that there will never be a new book for N&SS. Palladium seems to have left the writing for that line to Eric, and since he has pasted away,I'd say the line will never see any new books. I would love if new books were written, but we will most likely only see new material in the R...

I havn't found a solid number yet,but on pg. 146 of Rift's RPG is says that everything south of Tampa is under 200 ft of water.

im useing google maps with a sea level ajuster in it a 250ft rise in sea level would put flordia and several other places mentioned in rifts under water could it be 25 ft ? i was trying to find out if a few places i was wanting to use in california would be under water at 250 ft its not under water...

I would like to see a revised and updated VK, but I getting to old to get my hopes up on Kevin's idea's. I give it a 15% chance of ever seeing it.

Shadow Wyrm

I like the older artists that Palladium used to use, some of the new guys aren't very good. IMO.

Shadow Wyrm

I often treat the juiser prossess as a template that can be added to most characters. A Gunslinger who got the juicer opperation would be a force to be reconed with. A 10th level "slinger" might be an old guy who did it to go out with a bang.

Now that they have bionic wings its a full converstion all the way.

Though i do belevie an Abrams track can't be taken out by a 50 cal.....

A .50 BMG AP round has a very good chance at breaking a track. It's just not very common for a 50 cal. round to hit a track.

Shadow Wyrm

I can't recall were I've seen it but its 250 ft. or there abouts. I know its atleast this much because when I drive around the CA Central Valley I check city elevations to figure out what would be under water.

Shadow Wyrm

There are many reaasons why we have not seen a result to the bug war. Though everything is speculation at best. The Crisis of Trechery happened around the time that a book covering the bug war should of come out, and Kevin admits that he move on to other newer projects. So if a book covering the bug...

I can see a rune weapon being able to teach its user things, but I know of no rule concerning this ability. Ditto. I wouldn't allow it to become a serious issue in the game, but I can see a player picking up a skill or two over the course of the game. Alternately, the GM could house-rule a few skil...

I just looked over "light target," it says that it can't be abscured by putting a covering on after being effected. I'd rule that if its invisibility:simple, I would say that the person is still effected by light target. Invisibility: superior negate the "light target."

Do they hit, "Buckshot" like or "Slug" like ?

I never answered the question. They hit like buck shot.

You seem to have the basics down. Most changes are minor and in the combat section. It's really minor tweeks rather than a whole new addition.

Shadow Wyrm

Ah, there we go, that helps (thank you!). I remember there was a list of gem values somewhere, or maybe it was what they were good for magic-wise. Anyone know where that list was? I'll check my Atlantis when I get home, Stone Magic is ringing a bell on that I think. There is a list in Atlantis, the...

Simple put a hidroponic farm produces a lot less than a non-hidroponic one because most probably the tradicional farm cover a lot more area than the greenhouse that have the hidroponic farm. Also you would need to have a entire infrastructure ready so that your plan to counter a sudden drop in worl...

Duh! <slaps forehead> I hadn't even thought about just having the Black Market being at least a possible or first place for the PCs to talk to. Thanks for that! I'll check the New West, maybe they have some prices for gold and silver, but does anyone know off-hand what an ounce would run in univers...

Like a host mole armor, I think a goeffer would be better. Never had a mole problem myself, but goeffers suck.

I really dug the Shemarrian Nation book also. It gave a good about of imformation and helped advance the game world with out breaking anything.

Shadow Wyrm

It is my contention at this time that if Palladium wants to survive, they need to start freelancing out some of those projects, or putting them into print. I think they might be afraid to release Lazlo because of other concerns, but if I were them, I would do it anyway. Settings don't survive witho...

Shadow Wyrm

You should be able to buy any of the things you are looking for in any major city in NA. Any techno-wizard should be able to give you a connection to his supplier. THE Black Market will also get you what you need for a price.

Shadow Wyrm

The answer is, it DOESN'T provide parity with Juicer and Crazy autododge because Automatic Dodge itself is just a maneuver that doesn't cost you an action. Crazies and Juicers can autododge even if they CAN'T see it coming. Big difference. I think that might be part of the problem with Commando aut...

Please carefully read the definition of holds on R:UE page 345, 2nd column. It is a roll vs roll to maintain a hold. That clearly means it is action vs action. The hold is only maintained if the attacker beats the defender's roll. It only 'clearly' means it is action vs. action if you add to the te...

The area you are talking about is one of the best regions in North America. Why? Because there is little, to nothing there. There are a couple of Indian Perserve's,check WB 15 Spirit West for those, and the Shemarrian Nation, but you don't have it. But, for the most part it's all up to you whats the...

Shadow Wyrm

Well the Simvan of Rift's use dino's as warmounts, so it's do-able. What kind of weapons were you thinking about adding.

Shadow Wyrm

Since Mindworks is a major player in the Brodkil Empire I think them making a PA for them would be a great idea. I think the brodkil would go for a power armor that is sized to fit them.

Shadow Wyrm

Great would book idea. All major magic area's on the planet, who's the power players, major nations or forces in the area. All Super Nexus points, and the ley lines that conect the continents.

Shadow Wyrm

I've always felt that this should be a mandatory skill for high-tech PC's. I have not used it in my games yet, but I plan to use it in my new game that will be starting this weekend.

I will post the results, and just how I put the skill to use in the game.

Shadow Wyrm

The RMB has silver listed at 300cr an oz. A 12ga. shotgun has 1-1.5 oz. loads, sometimes more. So considering other costs like manufacturing and obtaining the materials tthe rounds would most likely cost around 500-600cr. per round.

Nightbane is the last new game to have charactor sheets inclueded. It seems that the people at PB no longer use charactor sheets anymore. And don't care if some of use still do.

The canon rules are on pg. 355-356 of RUE. They are also in the main book, but I do not know what page.

Also, Rifter #30 has a good artical on this. Page 45 MDC Armor Pass-Though Damage.

Shadow Wyrm

I like the idea, but untill I see it on the shelf, I just don't care.

I'm sick of the palladium habbit of promoting titles, and then failing to deliver.

If it does come out I'll buy it.

Im a CA native. I would love to see a would book on the west cost. I just what to see the writer correct the mistake about our cental valley. The majority of the area is under 100ft in elevation. So it should have reverted back to being a shallow inland sea instead of a deasert area. Also having SF ...

The book says the swords are rune weapons, so they are rune weapons. I personally have never treated them as such in my games. I just don't think they need to contain a soul to do the damage, or anything else. I treat them as powerful magic weapons made through a shinto ritual. The weapons are empow...

Should not of been a world book.A sourcebook yes, but not a world book.

I think It's just a dirity trick. A real world book world of been Japan 2 or Austrialia 2 or 3 or Underseas 2 or India or China 3. Dino Swamp 2 is more a sourcebook or an adverture book.

Rifts Japan 2 realy needs to be made there is just too much that's been left out of Japan that needs to be covered.

Dragons and elementals sounds to much like SoT to me. And the SoT is why I have gone with Japan to run a game.

Anybody know any japanese mythology that might provide insparation for low tech air power.
