Palladium Books® Weekly Update – July 26, 2012

By Kevin Siembieda

UPDATE: Rifts® Northern Gun TWO Crowdfunding nears goal – FOUR Days Left

$15,170 – that was the current status of the Rifts® Northern Gun™ TWO crowdfunding as of this morning. Our goal is $18,000 and there are only four days left. The last two Megaverse® Insider crowdfunding offers saw thunderous big sales the last weekend, and exceeded our goals. We don’t know if that will be the case or not, but we should certainly reach our goal even with moderate sales.

LAST FOUR DAYS to order your exclusive Rifts® Northern Gun TWO crowdfunding items!

Yep, this weekend is your last chance to order your exclusive Rifts® Northern Gun™ TWO crowdfunding items. The Northern Gun™ TWO Foil, Collector’s Edition Hardcover, Color Cover Hardcover Edition, PDF, or getting your name listed and other items and services exclusive to the Northern Gun™ TWO crowdfunding offer are only available till Monday, July 30, 2012. This is your last chance to place your order for a crowdfunding offer this year. And this book is going to be epic. NOTE: This current Megaverse Insider crowdfunding offer is the last one planned for this year, and ends Monday – July 30, 2012.

The value of crowdfunding. Crowdfunding gives Palladium Books a boost and the ability to release books with superior production value, great artwork and helps us develop other titles, do more reprints, advertising, reduce our debt load, and engage in other efforts to make Palladium strong. In fact, two out of print titles came in over the last six days and I continue to pay down debt, much of it going to Palladium’s talented writers and artists.

Your participation is welcomed and appreciated, but please, do NOT overextend yourselves. Purchase only the Megaverse Insider items you want and what you can afford. NOTE: The special items like art prints that the higher levels of participation receive are NOT the same as those in either previous Megaverse® Insider offer; they are completely new and different. How else would they be special? Each new offer will always be something new and special, unless stated otherwise.

The Rifts® Northern Gun™ TWO Megaverse® Insider crowdfunding ENDS on MONDAY, July 30, 2012. This deadline will NOT be extended. (IMPORTANT: The Rifts® Northern Gun™ 2 crowdfunding offer is the LAST ONE for this year. Enjoy.)

UPDATE: The Rifter® #59 – Available now

The Rifter® #59 shipped last Friday as scheduled. It is an outstanding issue with source material for the Xiticix™ Hivelands (new monsters and danger – the perfect companion for the Xiticix Invasion World Book), Splicers® (Gorehounds and Packmasters), Techno-Wizardru™ (items galore!), Palladium Fantasy RPG® (an adventure), Kezel abilities part two, and more. If you don’t usually get The Rifter®, you will want The Rifter® #59. Seriously.

Rifts® World Book 23: Xiticix Invasion – Back in print – Available now.

Rifts® Xiticix Invasion™ arrived on schedule last Friday as well. It is a fan favorite with everything you need to know about the Xiticix and the Hivelands, as well as details about Psi-Stalker tribes and Coalition operations in the area. The full description is toward the end of this Update.

Rifts® World Book 31: Triax Two – Back in print – Available now

This popular sourcebook updates and details the war between the people of the New German Republic and the Gargoyle Empire, and humanity is winning! In addition to new information about the NGR and the war, there are nearly 30 new Triax weapons and body armor, new giant robots and power armor, aircraft and a wide range of material suitable for campaigns abroad and elsewhere in the world. Don’t forget, the Black Market smuggles some Triax combat gear into North America. The full description is found toward the end of this Update.

Rifts® Dice Bag – Back in print – Available now

Another popular item is back in stock – the Rifts® Dice Bag. It is a sturdy, drawstring bag made of imitation black velvet emblazoned with the Rifts® logo in gold. 7x9 inches in size.

Rifts Black Market

UPDATE: Rifts® Black Market – 192 pages

This book is truly epic. It is absolutely jam-packed with a vast range of new source material. There is page after page of dynamic new characters, O.C.C.s, weapons, armors, vehicles, random generation tables and information about the Black Market. As I said in the last Weekly Update, I think this sourcebook is destined to become a “must-have” title. And it is late. Sorry.

Try as we all did, we just couldn’t get it to the printer this week. All of my artists – Mike Mumah, Brian Manning, Allen Manning, Amy L. Ashbaugh, Ben Rodriguez and Nick Bradshaw hit their deadlines and turned in gorgeous artwork. Chuck Walton is turning in the last of some additional illustrations this evening. The final editing and writing for the book is almost finished. We expect to wrap it up over the weekend. It WILL ship before Gen Con.

I hate to disappoint people, but I guess I’d rather disappoint you with delays than with an inferior product. Rifts® Black Market is nothing short of outstanding, thanks to the extra efforts of Carmen Bellaire, Julius Rosenstein, and the Palladium artists. We just kept adding material and going back into parts that were completely done and waiting for layout to make changes and additions so that Rifts® Black Market is as good as it can be. I hope you understand.

UPDATE: Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook

I still plan to dive into Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook the second I finish Rifts® Black Market, but it probably will not go to the printer till after Gen Con, making it a September release. This is another book that is going to surprise and please Rifts® fans, and may get expanded in size.

UPDATE: Rifts® Northern Gun One and Two

Yes, that means Rifts® Northern Gun™ One and Two may also be further delayed. But they too are going to blow your mind. Chuck Walton’s art is as good or better than Lemuria, and the ideas, the power armor, the robots and source material . . . wow.

UPDATE: Available on DriveThruRPG.com

Activity at this site has been strong. This is your place to get PDFs of older product and sneak previews of upcoming books. As soon as we can do one, we’ll be making a FREE Sneak Preview of Rifts® Black Market available. That will be next week. Many back issues of The Rifter® are available on DriveThruRPG.com (issues #1-52), as are more than 90 out of print titles such as Rifts®, BTS™ and Palladium Fantasy® first edition rule books and sourcebooks. A sneak preview of Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook and should also be coming soon. We plan to add a few more items in the coming months that should please Palladium gamers. We are also planning to move forward with PDF only editions of The Rifter® #0.1 and The Rifter® #0.2 – both are big, juicy digital editions of new, fan created material for the Palladium Megaverse® of games.

Don’t forget, DriveThruRPG.com also offers the Rifts® and Palladium Fantasy® Game Master Kits (both written by Carl Gleba and complete with maps, combat matrix, character sheets, spell list, and 20 pre-rolled characters created by Julius Rosenstein; $5 each). Of course, there are FREE Sneak Previews of Endless Dead™, Rifts® Lemuria, Rifts® Vampire Kingdoms™, and Thundercloud Galaxy™, as well as 90+ out of print titles, including back issues of The Rifter®, and first edition rule books for Rifts®, Palladium Fantasy RPG®, Heroes Unlimited™, The Mechanoid Invasion® Trilogy, and lots of other good things. ALL available as PDF downloads at reasonable prices. And there is MORE to come.

UPDATE: Kevin’s Online Toy & Collectibles Store – selling like crazy

We thought things would slow down, but all of a sudden we’ve been selling Palladium collectibles, along with Spider-Man, Batman, Star Wars and other action figures, like crazy.

Palladium Collectibles. There are only 4-5 copies of the Rifts® Machinations of Doom Gold collector’s edition left to ever be put up for sale in the store and the latest one blew out in a couple of days. I may put up another and hang on to the rest for a while. Likewise, we are quickly running out of Rifts® RPG Silver Hardcovers, BTS Gold, Rifts® Ultimate Gold, and other items. We have less than a dozen of most, which is why we continue to dole them out one at a time. I have been putting up copies of the two Rifts® Lemuria hardcovers as well. This way people who missed the crowdfunding have an opportunity to get one. But these are super-limited and the books in the store are part of the around 200 copies printed for each of these books. If you recall, Palladium prints 48 extra of the color cover edition and 24 of the foil collector’s edition. Staff and friends got a few, and what’s left we’ve been putting up in the store and other special offers. Once they are sold out, they are GONE! Other collectibles include first printings of books, signed books, proofreader copies of books, original artwork, and other collectible odds and ends.

There are also a large number of collectible toys and action figures in my online store. All are from my personal collection. More toys and collectibles are added on a weekly basis.

Good News

I wrote this for The Rifter® #59, but it bears repeating for all to see; plus I’ve updated some of the material.

I think we’re all afraid to say it, because saying it out loud might jinx it. And we don’t want that to happen. So let me couch it in the form of a question:

Could 2012 really be Palladium Books’ comeback year? Is this the year Palladium Books makes major strides in getting strong and growing the company?

We’re not there yet, but we sure seem to be getting there quickly. And there are all kinds of things happening that would suggest the answer could be, yes.

We are publishing more new releases. Epic, fun and dynamic releases. Yes, we’re behind schedule as usual it seems, but books that have come out, and the ones we are working on releasing in the months to come, are outstanding. Or at least, that’s how we feel about them.

And there are a lot more where those have come from. We have ideas and plans for dozens of great books for Rifts®, Robotech®, Palladium Fantasy RPG®, Splicers®, Nightbane®, Beyond the Supernatural™, and all our game lines.

Writer Josh Sinsapaugh is back writing for Palladium after a long hiatus. He has a nice Rifts® Xiticix™ article in The Rifter® #59, he just turned in a revamped Rifts® Deep South manuscript, and is about to start on a new book project. Welcome back, Josh!

Writer Carmen Bellaire is back writing for Palladium. Carmen took the last 2-3 years off to work on some personal projects, but now he’s back writing for Palladium. He’s just turned in a wealth of weapons and equipment for Rifts® Black Market and Rifts® Northern Gun™, and I just gave him the greenlight to write FOUR new Rifts® books! Four.

Writer Matthew Clements is coming back in the fall to work on a couple of new Rifts® books. He has taken the last six months off to pursue a couple of film projects. Yeah, Matt’s been writing screenplays all spring and summer.

Writer Carl Gleba is reinvigorated. He has just finished a secret book project and is providing additional gear and ideas for the two Northern Gun books. He then plans to get to work on a few new book ideas.

Writer Greg Diaczyk is finishing up work on two Rifts® books and has gotten approval to start work on a Heroes Unlimited™ sourcebook.

Writer Irvin Jackson and Robotech®. He is working on ideas for two new Robotech® sourcebooks, plus his Robotech® Genesis Pits Sourcebook is sitting here waiting to go into final production and be sent to the printer.

Robotech® Game Pieces of Mecha and spaceships. Just a few weeks ago, Palladium Books has extended its current licensing agreement with Harmony Gold and has secured the rights to produce pewter game pieces of Robotech® mecha and ships. We are looking for capable sculptors and a manufacturer. We’d like to release of 1/285 scale mecha by spring 2013!

Writer Brandon Aten is wrapping up work on Rifts® Sovietski and has plans for several Splicers® Sourcebooks. Yes, we plan to support Splicers® in a big way in 2013.

Palladium’s freelance artists are more dedicated and committed than ever. Each and every one of them is taking their craft to the next level. Chuck Walton, Amy L. Ashbaugh, Nick Bradshaw, Mike Mumah, Mark Dudley, Kent Burles, Allen Manning, Brian Manning, Ben Rodriguez, Mike Leonard, and other artists are all unleashing a new intensity of creative energy. You’ll know what I’m talking about when the next batch of books hit store shelves.

Artist John Zeleznik is knocking out one impressive cover after another for us. I need to assign him the next one.

Artist Mark Evans is back and working on the two Beyond the Supernatural™ covers – Tome Grotesque™ and Beyond Arcanum™, plus a Heroes Unlimited™ cover. He took time off to deal with some personal matters and to work on a big tarot card project. Welcome back, Mark!

● And could it be? There have been rumblings from fan favorite artists Wayne Breaux Jr. and Mike Wilson about possibly doing some new work for Palladium Books next year.

Crowdsource funding via Palladium’s Megaverse® Insider offers has been a huge success too, putting unique, often collectible products and services into the hands of gamers, and helping Palladium to fund the release of select new titles, reprint out of stock titles, pay down debt and increase our advertising. Wow, talk about a win, win scenario for everyone involved. Beautiful.

A few licensing deals may be happening for Palladium. Our agents at Surge Licensing was approached by two or three companies inquiring about some exciting licensing possibilities with Palladium intellectual properties (I.P.s). It is too soon to reveal what they are, but if they pan out . . . I think gamers will be pleased. On top of that, Palladium has been contacted directly by another two or three start-up companies with ideas for new products and markets. One of which is located in Spain! Again, it is too soon to speculate about them, but they are all promising and we are moving forward to see if they can be made into reality.

Gen Con® Indy is in a few weeks. We hope to make some additional connections and contacts there, as well as see a lot of Palladium gamers dropping by to say hello, meet some of the artists and writers, pick up product, new and old, and get autographs.

This year’s line-up of Palladium creators at the booth includes:

Online sales have been up and down, but overall good, and distributor sales have been slowly increasing. Recent releases, like Rifts® Lemuria and Endless Dead™, were both well received. What am I saying? People went wild over Rifts® Lemuria and loved Endless Dead™.

I know I’ve been saying for a while there is an energy and excitement in the air at Palladium, but it is real and it is exciting. Very, very exciting. Ideas on a vast number of things have been flying around for months. There are a half-dozen secret projects being developed (the possibility of doing Robotech® mecha figures was one of them) and it seems like new ideas and opportunities are cropping up on a regular basis.

If none of this gets your heart pumping, I don’t know what will. Keep the faith and game on!
