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.

Re: What is your favorite glossed over tidbit?
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.

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.
I will be 125 living in Rio de Janeiro when the Great Cataclysm comes, I will not survive long but I will be cloned threw the Achilles project and my clones will be Achilles Neo-Humans that will start a new Jedi order in Psyscape. So You May Strike Me Down & I Will Become More Powerful Than You Can Possibly Imagine. Let the Clone Wars begin!

Re: What is your favorite glossed over tidbit?
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).sHaka wrote:The Splugorth's respect come reverence for dragonkind is another.
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.

Well, it's hinted that the whole thing was just a Dunscon acid-trip too...
Eyes without life, maggot-ridden corpses, mountains of skulls... these are a few of my favourite things.
I am the first angel, loved once above all others...
Light a man a fire, and he's warm for a day; light a man on fire, and he's warm for the rest of his life.
Turning the other cheek just gets you slapped harder.

Re: What is your favorite glossed over tidbit?
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.

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.

Re: What is your favorite glossed over tidbit?
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.)

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??

Re: What is your favorite glossed over tidbit?
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.
