1MDC=10SDC is better
>>98365186>How often do you use stuff from the Rifter? If so, which articles?I steal a lot of weapons/tech from rifters, and some slice of life stuff explaining how towns work, because Kevin is awful at actual world building outside of action figures hitting each other scenarios, and a lot of rifts books, especially ones from the Coalition Wars and on, that have his fingerprints on them tend to completely ignore anything that would require any deeper thought.>>98367043I used to turn my nose at this, then I tried it at my table for a campaign and now it's a regular rule whenever we play Rifts.
>>98365186who approved this, it's basically porn
>>98367243Ramon Perez has a lot of pervy pics that get edited before the book comes out.IIRC Rifts Ultimate Edition's Flying Titan clearly shows that the wearer has a thong and no pants.It wasn't until the ARCHIE book that came out recently that they showed a Flying Titan wearer wearing cargo pants, which inadvertently confirmed that the previous picture was indeed a chick with just a thong and power armor, and confirming that the flying titan is assless/pantsless despite being EBA.

>>98365186https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1VNRnE1dFgf_4DkBeOfYKpOWV2p9ONHbFI forgot to upload a lot of the tokens. I think its up to date now. I couldn't remember the names of some of the dbee tokens.
>>98367840Ah thanks, anon!
>>98367270Gotta move those units somehow, especially since they could go to bandito arms and get a Wild Weasal, which is like a Samas but it comes with a warm half empty bottle of tequila in the seat storage.
>>98368113The green woman with the blue shield is the Staphra Warrior Woman from Atlantis.The similar one with the blue pauldrons is a Staphra Mystic Man from the same book.They're one of the like 5 "Women are bigger and stronger" races in Palladium.
>>98368113Yellow dude with spikes on his back is a vanguard brawler.
Do you guys think the CS has their own version of GI Joe to show to their kids?
>>98370931That would be fun. I mean, the ShipWreck would be obviously be a CS Navy OCC. Junkyard would be a dogboy. Flint would probably be a an Officer OCC. Scarlet would obviously be on of the psychic OCCs everyone hates.What would snake eyes be? Closest thing to them I know of would be the CS Juciers.
>>98368116no prob, anon!

>PalladiumOnly one I actually played was Rifts and used some stuff from After the Bomb for another game. It was alright, combat sucked though. May print Heroes Unlimited someday.
>>98374752Yeah rifts combat is made for 1v1s which is kind of weird.Additionally Kevin SIembiedia can't decide if he wants players to be useful or not be allowed to change anything about the world, so his setting is both fun and incredibly stupid simultaneously.
>>98365186Not sure if this will get me banned but...Do you play Palladium Rifts or Savage Rifts?and why don't you play the other?
>>98375655Palladium Rifts.Because I can't stand Savage Worlds, feels like they don't have the balls to commit to being a crunchy system or a narrative system.
>>98375655Palladium Rifts, for all it's problems, still an RPG unlike SW, who is just a wargame with midly to none roleplay stuff.
>>98375159I belive it's supposed to be sorta like a comic book fight, you know, each panel is a character clashing with another. Kevin kinda illustrate that a bit on how he handle combat in his games in UE.
>>98375655Palladium rifts.At first it was because the rifts book was not the core rule book, later because I found the rules too simplistic for a very technical setting
