What is your favorite glossed over tidbit?

[sHaka]

That the Republicans killed Nostrous Dunscon (sourced from the Tin Man sneak preview).

I'm yet to Acquire SB1:updated, so I don't how much this is covered. But I see this having possibly large ramifications.

[Balabanto]

Yeah. That actually entertains me greatly. That the entire war between the Coalition and the Federation of Magic was effectively created by the Republicans. I hope my PC's don't find that out. It would get nasty.

I always like the tidbit that the lords of magic are is one Alien Intelligence with split personalities.

[The Galactus Kid]

The hinting that the CS got the idea for their Shrike Interceptor's ASRRAAMM missile by reverse engineering the SSM-7&9 of the AGA-1JF Fighter from Macross II they "acquired"

Book and page? I don't recall which one the Shrike is in.

[Seneca]

Source Book 4 the CSN pg 88. Wow I never made that connection myself!

It is implied that they reverse engineered it from an "alien" combat vessel....

Larhold tribe camp captured a Galapagos Submersible Robot in South America 2. The tribe uses it as its flagship and the vehicle has permanent damaged reducing its M.D.C. by 20%. Now thats a setup for a gaming group to it own mobile base from a bunch of savages who don't deserve it.

[The Galactus Kid]

There is a tribe of Tokanii that can take O.C.C.'s. Try it sometime, its awesome.

The Splugorth's respect come reverence for dragonkind is another.

The Splugorth's respect come reverence for dragonkind is another.

For those Megaversal Beings "old" enough to know and remember, it was the Dragons -amongst the first slaves of the Old Ones -whose whispers were instrumental in their downfall (they persuaded Xy to craft the super Magic Circle, and at the same time persuaded his immediate subordinates to sabotage it).

Without Xy's departure weakening the Old Ones, without Thoth's subsequent appearance on the side of the Alliance of Light, and without the help of Kym-Nark-Mar (greatest of the God Dragons) in casting the Super Spell -not to mention the wartime sacrifice of vast numbers of Dragons.....

...the Old Ones would have remained in charge, and they are so vastly powerful that even the Megaverse's most powerful Alien Intelligences were bound to the Old Ones' will; for that the Splugorth are profoundly grateful.

that MDC weapons are uncommon and rare...

OMGoodness this is so frelling true....it is not even funny...

Well, it's hinted that the whole thing was just a Dunscon acid-trip too...

In the Phase World market selection it says the Naruni will sometime give a big discount or supply equipment for free for the rights to film wars. They send a film crew and equip soldier with mini-cameras. They use the filmed action for movies and other form of entertainment. Plus In Naruni Second Wave it says some groups can have credit on large purchases like the Reaper of Juggernaut hover tank. Later they can turn over captured lands, slaves, vehicles and weapons as payment to the Naruni sales rep. Great way to get a mercenary group off the ground. Nice story twists could happen if say the Naruni film team also equips the enemy and tip them off to your group's actions.

karl prosek mother being a sorceress

karl may have a brother some where in the magic zone

Karls mom wasnt a mage, the story goes that during the Bloody Campaign Joe the 1st had a mistress that was a mage who gave birth to a son (Karls half brother) after she was banished/sent away so Joe the 1st didnt have to explain things.

Did Lieutenant General Sawyer make it into ARCHIE's Stasis Army or somehow, otherwise survived??

(I would very much like to see her survive to the Present Day [she's from Rifts: Chaos Earth and she was there on 22 Dec 2098]; if she somehow became quasi-immortal and has 300 years of stories to offer, I'd like that too.
I'd hate to think that if she survived, that she would have supported the Coalition States as it currently exists in any way shape or form. I'd rather that she wasn't one of the Republicans, either.)

[cornholioprime]

That Superweapon that Tolkeen was going to unleash but never did....what was it, and perhaps even more importantly: who currently has the "schematics" for it??

[Marcethus]

The hidden tidbit that the SOT books were an acid trip (Semi JK)

Seriously the tidbit I love is the hinted at and very lost Lemuria book.


(To answer the Who runs the Brodkil Empire that's answered in Mindwerks, The Angel of Darkness unofficially rules them)

and another tidbit that I like is Manhunter.
