Palladium Books® Weekly Update – October 11, 2012

By Kevin Siembieda

UPDATE: The Rifter® #60 at the Printer – Ships October 22

The Rifter® #60 is done, at the printer and ships in a couple of weeks. I approved the printer’s digital proof just this afternoon. The John Zeleznik cover is amazing. Is this guy getting better, or what? I love the creature at the succubus’s feet and the wormy critters in the cage. 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 new description elsewhere in this Update. It has a ship date of October 22, 2012.

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 way 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 October 22

This fan favorite issue is at the printer for a special, short printing. The Rifter® #50 is larger than a typical issue at 128 pages, and is a special anniversary issue that 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. Ships the same time as The Rifter® #60, which is now estimated as October 22.

X-Mas Grab Bags

UPDATE: Palladium Christmas Surprise Packages

Orders for the 2012 Christmas Surprise Packages are coming in at a fast pace and shipping. Even though we said orders wouldn’t ship till next Monday, EVERYONE came in over the weekend, including writer Matthew Clements, to sign books for those of you requesting autographs, which is most people. Then Julius Rosenstein came in on Saturday and Sunday to pack up the first 50-60 orders so they could be shipped out on Monday and Tuesday. That’s dedication to our customers. Thanks guys. Makes sense since this is our way to say thank you to our multitude of wonderful customers.

And we’ve been shipping Surprise Packages every day. Carmen Bellaire signed some books on Wednesday. Chuck Walton should come in today to sign, and we hope to get Mark Dudley and Ben Rodriguez to drop by to sign some books as well.

I always go a little crazy with the first 60-100 Surprise Packages, so don’t expect every Grab Bag to be loaded with goodies like these. I’ve also been enjoying the brief comments many of those ordering include with their order. As is tradition, I’ve included a sampling toward the end of this Weekly Update. Thanks for the kind words and support.

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.

Click here for complete details and to place your order.

UPDATE: Online Sales

Online sales have been rocking with dozens and dozens of people placing orders for the Palladium Christmas Surprise Package Offer. Many of whom also place orders for other titles and product they want at the same time. Plus regular orders have been good as well. Excellent.

UPDATE: Robotech® Genesis Pits Sourcebook

I’ll be assigning artwork as soon as we get approval of the text from Harmony Gold. At this point, Robotech® Genesis Pits™ Sourcebook seems likely to ship in November. It is an excellent sourcebook.

UPDATE: Robotech® Tactical Role-Playing Game

I had an excellent conversation with Tommy Yune last Friday and more legal documents came in a few days ago from the people we’ll be working with to make the product line. I’ve reviewed the documents and my attorney and I will be hammering out the final details over the next week. Very exciting. Expecting several follow-up calls will ensue among several interested parties.

UPDATE: Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook

I’ve actually gotten to continue to do a little work on the Rifts® Vampires Sourcebook. I can’t wait till it is in your hands.

UPDATE: Rifts® Northern Gun One and Two

Chuck Walton will be turning in a stack of gorgeous robot illustrations today. He and other artists will be working on additional artwork. Matthew Clements dropped by the warehouse last Sunday to sign books for Christmas Surprise Packages and chat about various projects.

UPDATE: Rifts® Megaverse® in Flames

This book is going to be epic in scope. Still hoping to get it out by the end of the year and will do my best to make it happen.

UPDATE: Other Titles and Projects

I’m trying to keep everything moving forward.

Mark Dudley’s Comic Book Kickstarter

Don’t forget to take a look at Mark Dudley’s Kickstarter comic book project Imaginos Plus.

UPDATE: Kevin’s Online Toy & Collectibles Store

Alex will be adding a few new Palladium collectibles every few days to my online store, including the proofreader copy of The Rifter® #60 and a few other items. 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.

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.

V.Y. in Singapore, Singapore, writes: Palladium is still the best!

J.R. in Bath, Avon, Great Britain, writes: Been out of the loop for a while, but glad to see you guys are coming back strong from what sounds like a pretty rough time. First time I’ve been back since the new online store – great upgrade, much more attractive for first time browsers. Good luck with the future and I wish everyone at PB good health and good luck in the coming year.

S.H. in South Porcupine, Ontario, Canada, writes: I would greatly appreciate if both Surprise Packages are heavy on Palladium Fantasy as one is for me and the other is for my 12 year old son’s first Palladium X-Mas package.

J.M. in Lincoln, Nebraska, writes: Thank you for being awesome and providing me with over two decades of great gaming memories.

J.G. in Spokane, Washington, writes: [In part] You guys have done supreme work this year.

J.D. in St. Louis, Missouri, shares a wild tale: [In part] ... last year, a thief with good RPG taste stole (I’m not exaggerating) my entire collection [of Palladium games]. Now the funny part about this story is that unless he had supernatural strength, he could not have gotten my books out of my apartment without a minimum of two trips. And to top that, instead of choosing my laptop (with a lot of DriveThruRPG.com titles), my gaming system, my car keys or my wallet (which I believe he just didn’t notice – thank you, God) – he took the books. He did get away with a few other things, but in hindsight, it could have been worse. My only hope is that he is running a game somewhere, and converting players from other systems over! Merry Christmas! I wish all of you at Palladium Books good health and success!!

R.C. in Central Point, Oregon, writes: I’m just happy you guys do this, it makes it possible for me to hopefully get a few things I have been waiting to get. I wasn’t able to do this last year, so I am very excited for this [Surprise Package].

J.M. in Glenns Ferry, Idaho, writes: I’ve been collecting and reading role-playing games for 25 years and I always come back to Palladium Books. Palladium has the most well written books in the industry. Thanks for eveything Kevin, and make sure to take some time off for the holidays, you deserve it.

C.B. in Wyoming, Michigan, writes: I ordered a Surprise Package several years ago and was extremely happy with the results. Looking forward to another great box of goodies.

J.W. in military service, writes: As a lifetime loyal customer of Palladium Books, I make it a point to own nearly every product you produce, either by purchasing from you directly, from merchants, or my fellow gamers. May God bless Palladium Books and the employees and volunteers, their families and your customers this holiday season.

From Kevin Siembieda & staff to all of you. Thank you, one and all, for your very, very kind words, warm wishes and suggestions. We can’t possibly print all the comments we get, but we do read them ALL, and we appreciate every last one of you, including those of you who leave no comment but whose names we recognize as loyal customers. Your kindness and support are welcomed and cherished. Game on. - Kevin Siembieda
