Are you sure? A copy of the core book was posted some time ago, from what I saw in 4blebs.
And on their website they have all the products available for purchase. It says nothing about only being in Spanish or preorder the English version. They even have them on a discount now.

This is what's retarded to me about the "The CS are the good guys" people. You can make an argument for the Imperium in 40k as there's literally only them standing on the wall. But in Rifts you have Lazlo, New Lazlo, the various Indian tribes, the NGR, and the various New West baronies. Even Archie could be considered a force for "fuck everything not from Earth"

On top of that the "Xiticix-killer" was such an astoundingly retarded plan I wouldn't trust the CS to lead a parade.

>>97242760
UPN Kids was so weird. They started strong with Teknoman and the 11th sci-fi version of the Odyssey but then ditched them and replaced them with a trash Jumanji show and a passable Hulk show. Project Geeker would have been cool but got stuck with the late 90s early 2000s "We have to stick a wacky character in it" BS.

>>97243616
I think if I ever got the opportunity to do a new edition of RIFTs I'd have more of an emphasis on players customizing basic power armor and robots like the Samson rather than everybody just heading for the fancy stuff. Like the robot hero rules from Heroes Unlimited.

>>97273417
Lazlo should be like Vault 13 in Fallout 1 where its a nice place to live but the PCs are defacto exiled because they're too rowdy to live there and any Lazlo sourcebook should mostly focus on the political machinations of city factions working as patrons for the PCs.
Probably the one time the "Let's make a big dumb list of robots and equipment rather than actually describing the town" method of old worldbooks might have worked.

>>97313734
Idk, I think they should ficus on it being a center of learning/university town that's super diverse. Besides Atlantis, it's probably the most melting pot place you can go, so you should be able to go there & say pay a bunch if credits to learn a new skill or a handful of spells Lazlo RAW seems to go out of its way to shit on that idea though

>>97313587
Fucking THIS. I was hoping the Northern Gun books would do this but no, we just got a hundred pages of Walton's knock off halo suits I would love to add & modify power armor. Especially if you would allow the merging of proprietary tech like Megaversal anti inertia fields

>Revolvers existed during the Civil War, but your average soldier still used a musket for economical reasons. So it isn't all bad until the canister shots come out.

Problem is here machine gun nests, not revolvers.

>I think it'd be interesting to see how Centuars would behave in an everchanging world. I think if we are willing to suspend some disbelief we could use their size and speed to have them be a portable artillery.

Those things were HEAVY anon. Like, four draft horses were needed just to tow the lightest of them.

>Problem is here machine gun nests, not revolvers
I suppose. But the way I see it. Strong defensive formations have always been a centuars defining weakness. A battle cart or even a pike formation would give them trouble even back then.
>Those things were HEAVY anon. Like, four draft horses were needed just to tow the lightest of them
I didn't mean a literal, fullsized, realistic canon. I meant more miniature, less powerful, canon. Think like the one from bloodborne. Canoneers aren't unheard of in steampunk settings. I'm just thinking they'd make more sense on a centuar than person.
Or you could take notes from >>97312669 and have them use something based om Congreve Rockets. It's admittedly a bit of an asspull though. But its fine as long as it's done cool enough.

>>97313321
Like a Swivel Guns / Amusette Artillery? GPT had suggested those as well, but I didn't include that. Basically, those'd be an intermediate caliber between standard musket rounds and larger cannon shot.

If we're talking steampunk, though, that opens up Gatling guns or maybe a Puckle gun
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPC7KiYDshw
There's also the Hotchkiss Revolving Cannon, which would be too heavy in its original configuration. It would need to be scaled down because it'd be 440lbs (just for the gun itself). The field carriage with limber and ammunition would be 2000+lbs (Way too heavy for a vanguard force, you'd be better off mounting it on an airship or some shit). Each individual 47 mm or 53 mm shell would be 6~10lbs.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQEs6i4fwLA

If you were to scale it down by 2/3rds that would be workable for them to carry around. You'd be firing 20mm rounds instead of the heavy 47mm rounds. Pretty powerful gun for a vanguard force. If we have massed armor and airships in a steampunk setting, you might be better off with goofy rocket shit like a brass bazooka. I haven't dabbled much in steampunk; the amount of tech available will vary by setting, so I'd have to see what kinda shit the centaurs were up against.

Fundamental problem with centaur units is dealing with the injured. In unit of men, injured combatant can be carried by somebody else back for treatment at 1:1 (fireman carry) or 2:1 (stretcher team) ratio through pretty much any terrain. Centaurs can't transport an injured centaur without access to cart and road (or possibly some sort of sled), limiting extraction of the injured. They'd either have to accept putting down all their injured (and such double standard vs human soldiers would be inevitably bad for morale) or stay close to the road (reducing their battlefield utility).

The Americans generally beat the other western powers to the use of the locomotive in warfare. While all powers saw the logistical usage, the first historical instance of what we would describe as a train designed for warfare, an armoured train, was the 'Armoured Battery', along the Baltimore-Pennsylvania railway network, whose workers had been continually subject to Confederate raids. It's more or less just iron plates nailed to a boxcar, with a 24-pounder on a turntable at the front. Gunholes for fifty riflemen were drilled into the sides of the boxcar.
The British famously used more modern examples during the Boer War, and the Germans and Austrians would go on to build entire armoured railway batteries, but that would be pushing things a bit too far. It fits best with the American frontier ingenuity trope.

>>97307740
No argument here. The British did use an armored train during the Anglo-Egyptian war but that's already what directly inspires a lot of the traction engine (Also the Steam Sappers of one of the Ashante Expeditions) so giving them another armored vehicle would be redundant.

Alright, if I keep it in the USA book, should I make it something where the carts you get are random (with perhaps, some options keyed in, for example the military one could be Federal Leader only...), or where you purchase each one?
I'm thinking of putting a Valuable (x) rule on some Carts, like the Deepfolk's buildings, and you would score a percentage (or multiple) of that amount if you manage to get that Cart off the map on the 3rd, 4th, 5th turn for example.

Wide meta does not mean game is balanced necessarily. There are cards and interactions that can be rather toxic and turn entire situations and get wins without much thought to it. There are strategies that are gatekept due to how punishable they are by certain cards.
If your deck is particularly vulnerable to Royal Oppression and Deck Devastation Virus you are just handicapping yourself when the top meta contenders can chill under these cards. Brain Control is an unhealthy card, so is Heavy Storm. These cards were either banned or put at 1 copy in later formats. The lack of Effect Veiler also makes Hamster, Ryko, Caius very strong.
Edison is a format that can be really fun, but let's not kid ourselves, it has issues, it's not perfect and by no means balanced. It's not different from many other formats in YGO's History.

Also. On a personal note, I find it a little less enjoyable since it lacks a lot of cool archetypes from the late 5D's era like Scraps, Fabled or T.G.
I must admit, thought. That I really like Amaryllis Burn and Edison is the only place where that deck is playable.

Invest it in paying off debts, getting better gear, upgrading the ship or getting a better ship, getting a luxury ship upgrade*, insurance, setting up a retirement fund and house, buying a house for my PC's parents, buying a small fleet of murder/cargo loading droids, buying a large herd of GONK droids and letting them roam freely on my new retirement estate's grounds (that one led to a fun adventure). The sky's the limit, and the GM is incentivised to have the player spend AS MUCH as possible.

"You've been hired by a local crime lord to kill an Imperial Moff who refuses to turn a blind eye to said crime lord's dealings"
Now the party gets to decide what sort of morality it wants. Full murder hobo killing evil Imperials, or helping the Imperials enforce their evil lawful ways by helping them get rid of a crime lord.
Or get jobs from a mysterious contact (who may or may not be a part of the Rebel Alliance) to strike and destroy Imperial infrastructure or steal money or ships from the Empire.
Or stealing rare and valuable ancient artifacts from rich asshole who supports the Empire. Or from the local crime lord.

Just spitballing here. You can take a lot of fantasy adventures and just replace things like "king" with "planetary governor" and still have cliche'd adventures rescuing a princess.
The sky's not even the limit since there's also all that space out there to explore. Like having the party fly into an asteroid field to investigate an ancient derelict spaceship for anything valuable and/ or fighting off space pirates who want the loot for themselves or are just harassing local civilian traffic.

How do gene stealer cults start? Do the Tyranids send a planet an approximate of what the humans/whoever find a 10/10 mate or do they just send some bug to attack and rape the first human they see?

>>97314017
...Are you under the impression that an argument about semantics SHOULDN'T be autistically specific in evidentiary standards?

D&D wizards aren't scholars, they pick up spells from a menu of premade options like fatman picks up "a number 9, large number 3 with fries and a soda" at Drive Thru.

Only NPCs get to invent, test theories, discover new magic, form classifications, etc.

>>97304565

>>97314036
False. Your DM is just bad at letting you do this. There are even rules in the DMG for letting your players design their own spells.

>>97314029
>but it's clear already you're an absolute retard that would not accept this is the case even if wizards literally had an innate ability called Science™.
I'd disagree with the author's use of the word qualifying for this argument if it was sufficiently contradictory to the empirical framework of study that is the contrast of the magic vs. science trope, but it's quite possible to demonstrate a scientific process through research rules that are incremental.

>>97314036
No, the free spells on level-up are fluffed as independent research and you actually have to spend time studying writings to copy them into your spellbook. And back in 3.5, you can find spell research rules on pg. 198 of the Dungeon Master's Guide:

>Research requires an expenditure of 1,000 gp per week and takes one week per level of the spell. This money goes into fees, consultants, material component experimentation, and other miscellaneous expenditures. At the end of that time, the character makes a Spellcraft check (DC 10 + spell level). If that roll succeeds, the character learns the new spell if her research produced a viable spell. If the roll fails, the character must go through the research process again if she wants to keep trying.

Of course, a "viable" spell is "DM-may-I" with fuck-all guidelines and remains devoid of what epistemological approach is used, but it does exist.

You know, while HexTech can look pretty generic, it being in the roughly 1:220 scale rather than 40k's 1:64/1:48 Heroic scale makes the terrain look a hell of a lot better, much less how the terrain rules roll out.

Feels like the scale pushes a bit harder on the need for overall stylization, while Heroic scale pushes more on the realism side, which can more easily fall victim to the Uncanny Valley. Something that is naturally way harder to climb past when dealing with placeable terrain.
