Palladium Books® Weekly Update – June 29, 2017

By Kevin Siembieda

One game system – every genre – countless worlds – endless adventure

Happy Independence Day to all of my Fellow Americans. Okay, that’s a little bit early, but the Fourth of July is just around the corner, and I imagine many of you will be heading out for a long weekend today or tomorrow. Enjoy the holiday.

Our week here at Palladium has been a full one. Julius has been kept busy in the warehouse shipping out many online orders and a large number of distributor restock orders. Awesome! Keep those orders coming. Wayne has been active getting new PDF books posted to DriveThruRPG as well as editing and other duties, and Chuck has been drawing away. My main focus this week has been getting Rifts® Secrets of the Atlanteans™ finished so we can get it off to the printer. I was able to devote most of the week to writing and editing, which meant peeling 100 manuscript pages off the printer for Wayne and Alex’s final edits. Meanwhile I’m working away on the remaining parts of the book. I’m happy to report everyone has been loving what they are reading. Awesome book. When it is at the printer next week, we dive immediately into Nightbane® Dark Designs™. Both sourcebooks should be July releases.

I think I put together a very fun and useful sale for the holiday weekend, with several titles that should come in handy for use with Rifts® Secrets of the Atlanteans™. Read on for details.

NEW – Rifts® Adventure Time Sale – June 29-July 5, 2017

Here are a number of sourcebooks with which to build adventures for your Rifts® games.

UPDATE: Rifts® Secrets of the Atlanteans – July

I finished the Atlantean clans, O.C.C.s, Sunaj and Shadow Dimension sections and have mostly the magic sections left to do a final pass and tweaks on. Talk about a book packed with a ton of useful source material. Secrets galore about Atlantean clans, the Sunaj, new Atlantean O.C.C.s, new magic tattoos, Stone Magic, Crystal Magic, Shadow Magic (I loved this section with the Shadow Mage and Shadow Assassin), some weapons and gear, and clans across the Megaverse.

Closing Thoughts

We are rockin’ n’ rollin’ on finishing products on several fronts. Wayne, Alex and I are working through the weekend to insure Secrets of the Atlanteans goes to the printer by the end of next week and I can dive right into Dark Designs for Nightbane. Working on The Rifter® too, as well as RRT and other projects. Scott Gibbons is a welcomed addition and helping to keep everything rolling along.

In America, July 4th is our annual celebration of independence. There will be all kinds of traveling and summer fun at parks and beaches, as well as store sales and new blockbuster movies to see. And maybe some gaming fun too. It is a worthy celebration.

I am proud to be an American. I can’t think of too many places in the world where a punk kid from the wrong side of the tracks, clutching fiercely onto a dream of a better life for himself and his family, has a real chance to follow that dream. I was that kid. I believed in my country and the opportunity it had to offer. Thanks to my amazing, loving and hardworking parents, I believed in myself, too. I was able to take my dream and not only make it a reality, but touch millions of other people with it; and make them smile and laugh, as well as inspire them to dream. The journey has not always been easy, but every step has been worthwhile.

America is not perfect. Not by a long shot. But it is the land of opportunity, hope and dreams. The media is filled with stories about how divided we are, especially in politics, and concern about all manner of things. But when I look at my friends and you, our fans – people of all colors and faiths, Republicans, Democrats, etc., rich and poor – I see awesome human beings. Good people. Kind and generous people. Imaginative and creative people. People who hope and dream and strive to live their lives as well as they possibly can. It makes me feel proud and honored. It gives me hope for the future of our nation and the world. And it makes me proud to be a fellow American.

I mean no slight to our dear friends in Canada, Mexico, and the rest of the world. You’re awesome too. I am thrilled to count so many wonderful gamers from around the globe among my cherished friends and fans. Be proud of who you are and where you come from. Dare to find the courage to fight for your dreams and the dreams of others. We all struggle in our pursuit of happiness and our journey to find our place in the world. It is a journey and goal we all share. Try to remember that. We are not so different, any of us, and we all need to hope and dream.

Please, keep those beautiful imaginations burning bright. I mean it. These words are much more than a slogan. I sincerely mean them and believe in them. I always have. Unleash your imaginations and keep them burning bright, whether your dream is writing, illustration, game design, film, science, engineering or an infinite range of possibilities. Or just for the sheer delight of it. Game on.

I know because my heart skipped a beat when I accidentally knocked my tumbler over on my paperwork covered desk. I expected everything to get soaked and ruined, but only a few drips of ice water came out. What a relief. These items are so useful and attractive that I can’t even pick a favorite design. We love them all.
