TRAGEDY!! - Laptop Hard Drive Crashes
Oh my god, I can't believe this happened just 2 days before the OH- ALL my notes and characters for my Rifts: Grand Paladins game and my Robotech game are history!
I have notes to both, but I have to recreate a total of 18 pre-gen characters- 10 for the Grand Paladin game and 8 for the Robotech game.
This is a nightmare-
The best I can hope for is to recreate the characters and use my notes as a guidline and wing both games...
Sorry in advance if it's not up to snuff..

Grrr nothing worse then an ill-timed HD crash (is there EVER a good time?)
Sorry for your troubles.
Not trying to rub salt in the the wound, but in the future, gotta back it up! I've learned that lesson the hard way more then once... GL

Be at peace, my people. All shall be looked up.

Cripes! Sorry to hear that GP :-/
Hopefully some data recovery can be achieved...
What system is the Grand Paladin game? I don't see one by that name doing a quick scan of the schedule.

Thanks to all for the good vibes.
I'm a big proponent of backing up the HDD, but I didn't take my own advice. About the HDD- it's not even being recognized by my Powerbook- i tried to restore with an archived backup- and I screwed something up royally.
As far as the Grand Paladins game- it's Rifts based, but it's all new. everything is my own creations based on an old manuscript submission that I never really finished.
I need some sleep now. I have to get up @ 6 AM- that's less than 4 hours from now.

Again sorry to hear about the stress, but well you did a great job at the game Haven't gotten into a Robotech game in a LONG time and had a blast Story was great, and even hurt the head a little at the end (more because I was trying to come up with other uses for 'the stuff' )
(don't wanna give spoilers incase it's run again or shows up someplace a la rifters or something)
But thanks again Pete for a great time

So did everyone get that +1000 exp? Or just the doc?

Hey thanks Mildaner!
I'm glad that you enjoyed the game, that was my hope. I had a great time running it for all you guys, everyone was superb!
Thanks for keeping the plot twist a secret- maybe the adventure will come up again some day!
Special thanks again to everyone that played in my games over the Open House!
To my Grand Paladin players, it's too bad that we had to stop right at the point where it was going to get good. Kudos to MADMANMIKE and the crew for sticking through a on the fly rendition of the adventure! You all were awesome!

My many thanks Xar!!
The Grand Paladins (obviously) holds a special place in my heart- so I'd love to finish it up and see it published for Palladium.
Remind me, which character did you play- was is one of the twins, or the Bio-Armored Trooper??
