Palladium Books® Weekly Update – October 18, 2012

By Kevin Siembieda

Is it bad to be tired of winter already, when it hasn’t even officially started? It has been dreary, cold and rainy in Michigan for the last few weeks. It was sunny and warm yesterday for the first time in a long while, and then it chilled off and rained last night and this morning. The sun is fighting to peek out, but it’s a losing battle as more rain is supposed to be coming our way.

I continue to juggle several business matters, including scheduling, plotting 2013 releases, tooling up a new catalog (one of the many things people have been requesting), working on contracts, signing books for Christmas Surprise Packages, and doing bits and pieces on various books and projects. Meanwhile, I have pretty much cleared my schedule to where I can write for 3-4 weeks straight and bang out a couple of books.

UPDATE: The Rifter® #60 arrived today – ships tomorrow

The Rifter® #60 arrived this afternoon. It ships to subscribers Friday and to distributors on Monday. The first couple of copies, hot out of the box, are going into a couple of Christmas Surprise Packages.

It is another fantastic issue packed with wonderful ideas, weapons, gear, monsters and useful source material. Plus tips for introducing role-playing games to young children. See the description elsewhere in this Update.

If you’ve never taken a look at The Rifter®, you might want to ask for one or several issues when you order a Christmas Surprise Package. Most issues are jam-packed with stimulating material you can drop right into your own game, adapt and modify, or which may give you new insight or ways of looking at gaming. I’m telling you, The Rifter® is an outstanding resource for gaming ideas with a lot of material that can be adapted to just about any setting.

UPDATE: The Rifter® #60 Sneak Preview available on DriveThruRPG.com

Wayne has already posted the FREE Rifter® #60 Sneak Preview up on DriveThruRPG.com for you to take a look at. This is your place to get PDFs of older product and sneak previews of upcoming books. 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 should also be coming soon. We have not forgotten about the 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.

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 Rifts® Black Market, 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: The Rifter® #50, Anniversary Issue – back in print – ready to ship

The Rifter® #50 also arrived early this week and is now available to order. We have reprinted this special anniversary issue because it is filled with “official” source material and because many of you have requested it. So here you go. It is larger than a typical issue at 128 pages, and contains source material for Rifts®, Chaos Earth™, Phase World®, Nightbane®, Heroes Unlimited™, Ninjas and Superspies™, Splicers® and the Palladium Fantasy RPG®. $14.95 retail – Cat. No. 150. Available  now.

UPDATE: Robotech® Genesis Pits Sourcebook

Gah, what an idiot I can be. Somehow, I put a 35 page section aside and forgot about it, so I had to stop working on Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook and finish those 35 pages of Genesis Pits. The rest is in Harmony Gold’s hands. At this point, Robotech® Genesis Pits™ Sourcebook seems like it should ship in November. It is an excellent sourcebook full of fun and useful material.

UPDATE: Robotech® Tactical Role-Playing Game

I spent two complete days and had several conversations with my attorney to hammer out a work agreement with the amazing team who will be working with Palladium to make the best darn Robotech® game pieces we can. We want to produce a product that will make Robotech® fans swoon (or at least grin with delight).

UPDATE: Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook

This is the book I get back into in a day or two and do not stop working on until it is done! You are going to love Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook.

UPDATE: Rifts® Northern Gun One and Two

Chuck Walton turned in a stack of brilliant robot illustrations last Thursday. All I can say is, “wow.” He still has a dozen to finish, and I still need to assign some additional illustrations to other artists. This book is going to blow Rifts® fans away.

A pleasant visit with Apollo Okamura

Palladium artist, Apollo Okamura, was in town on business, so he dropped by the office to visit before his flight out. It’s been a few years since we’ve seen each other face to face, so it was very nice to have Apollo at the office for a few hours. We got caught up with personal matters, Palladium, his new job that takes him all over the world, and all sorts of things. While here, Apollo volunteered to signed several stacks of books for the Christmas Surprise Packages. He was impressed by the warehouse set up for them and was glad to sign a couple hundred books. He also agreed to do the cover for the first Robotech® UEEF Marines Sourcebook, though we’re still fishing around for cover ideas.

UPDATE: Online Sales

Online sales remain strong with dozens of people placing orders for the Palladium Christmas Surprise Packages, but we’re also seeing strong orders for . . . well, everything. Particularly, a lot of Rifts®, Robotech®, Dead Reign™, Heroes Unlimited™ and Palladium Fantasy®. Wonderful; please, keep ‘em coming.

X-Mas Grab Bags

UPDATE: Palladium Christmas Surprise Packages

Orders for the 2012 Christmas Surprise Packages are coming in at a nice, steady pace. Surprise Packages ship out every day, though to pull, sign and make them special, some don’t ship for 2-3 days after we receive the order. People are loving them and we’re getting many nice comments.

Apollo Okamura dropped by to sign some books this week, and we hope to get Mark Dudley, Chuck Walton and Ben Rodriguez in soon to do likewise.

What is the Christmas Surprise Package? A way for you to get a pile of Palladium product, original artwork, prints, out of print copies of The Rifter®, miniatures, autographs and surprises at low prices.

It involves you sending Santa Kevin a “Wish List” of 10-12 different in-stock products and a flat payment (+ shipping and handling). I then hand-pick items from that Wish List and I may include product you didn’t ask for (hence the nickname, “X-Mas Grab Bag”), but all things I think you’ll enjoy, and we ship it all off to you. Gamers have been loving this special offer for 14 or 15 years now. Order one or several for yourself and for your gaming buddies. For the holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, or just to get cool stuff and signatures. Get all the information from the description in the online store.

UPDATE: Kevin’s Online Toy & Collectibles Store

Alex has added a bunch of new items to my online store, especially fanzines. I’ll be digging up some Palladium collectibles over the weekend. Take a look, there may be some items that are perfect as holiday gifts. Note: There are no more than five Rifts® Lemuria Emerald Editions earmarked for the store, and other items such as the Rifts® Machinations of Doom Gold Hardcover, Rifts® RPG Silver hardcovers, BTS Gold, Rifts® Ultimate Gold, Erick Wujcik’s Amberzine #11, etc., are also in short supply. In most cases, I have only a dozen or fewer to offer. That’s why we continue to dole them out one at a time. Once they are sold out, of course, they are GONE! Other collectibles include first printings of books, signed books, “proofreader” copies of books (a couple more coming your way soon), 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.

Closing thoughts

Man oh man, Everybody has been putting in long hours and giving it their all. I continue to juggle a number of product development items and work away at getting new books released. So much so, that I’ve had little time to post on Facebook or Murmurs from the Megaverse®, but I’ll try to post more. Continue to order and enjoy the goodies you get in your Christmas Surprise Packages, spread the word about them, and keep sending us those positive vibes.

Surprise Package comments from fans like you

Every year there is a section where the customer can offer comments and suggestions with his or her Surprise Package order. Every year, in acknowledgment of our fans, and because they are fun to read, we offer a sampling in the Weekly Updates. Our heartfelt thanks to all of you who have made 2012 a very good year for Palladium. Keep those imaginations burning bright, have a joyous holiday season and game on.

D.B. in Waterford, Michigan, writes: I received the Christmas Grab Bag that I ordered for this year and loved it so much that I am now ordering a second. Getting the books signed was awesome and I loved the personal touches like the little dragon profile that Kevin drew on the cover page of the PFRPG.

J.B. in Middletown, New York, writes: Thank you very much! This is the second year I’ve gotten a Christmas Surprise Package, and I really enjoyed the last one. I participated in the Northern Gun One incentive offer this year, and I’m really looking forward to a lot of things coming out soon. This is a great time to play Palladium games!

C.L. in White Sulphur Springs, Montana, writes: Keep up the fantastic work! Happy holidays from a long-time fan.

G.C. in Taichung, Taiwan, writes: Like someone else said, keep doing what you’re doing, but faster. Like Vampires Sourcebook, I’ve been waiting from last Christmas.

C.G. in Bakersfield, California, writes: Keep up the good work. I don’t mind books taking a little longer, because I know you’re taking the time to get it right.

T.D.P. in Annandale, Virginia, writes: Once again, I am ordering the X-Mas Surprise Package. I have not been disappointed.

M.M. in Port Huron, Michigan, writes: I have been a fan of Palladium since I picked up Robotech® back in the early 1990s. From there we branched off to Heroes Unlimited™ and Palladium Fantasy®. I know you guys went through a hard time and glad to see you are still alive and kicking ass.

J.P. at Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama, writes: I just want to say thank you for continuing to be my favorite RPG company (and thanks for still being in business!). Keep up the good work. Really looking forward to 2013 and some Beyond the Supernatural™ and Chaos Earth™ books.

B.T. in North Syracuse, New York, writes: Keep up the good work. You guys have been epic and awesome so far. Just hope new Nightbane® stuff hits the shelves soon.

S.B. in Waldorf, Maryland, writes: Palladium Fantasy® is the best. I am starting back up after a 10 year break. Found out a friend loves Palladium also. Thanks in advance.

J.L. in Madison, Wisconsin, writes: To Santa Kev and the Palladium Elves, thank you. You guys do a great job and a huge service to the gaming community. So fantastic to hear people saying Palladium is back. Your curent line of products are filled with awesomeness, and they keep getting better. That is the testament to the truth that Palladium is indeed back and getting stronger every day. Good luck to you all, and thanks for all the hard work.

From Kevin Siembieda & staff to all of you. I selected some of these to show people that we listen to what you say and want. And more product for all of our game lines is top on your list. We still struggle with getting new books out and release dates slipping. I’m working on that problem and hope it will be much diminished next year. We also plan to have books for many different game lines coming your way. For now, we’re trying to get the awesome books currently in the pipeline to the darn printer and in your hands. I promise they will be worthwhile. Keep the faith and thank you for the kind words. - Kevin Siembieda
