How does one go about converting characters from systems that use the Education / Skill Packages system, like Heroes Unlimited, to a Rifts game?

I've tried looking in a few places, including the first Conversion Book as well as various online FAQs, but nothing's helped so far. Trying to do it ...

Simple answer: If powers or spells like that could do so, it would render Bio-System replacements pretty much useless, and there wouldn't need to be so many comments/rules on their impact on psychics and magicians in the first place. The assumption would be that they'd the readily available powers ...

Eh, if a timer that drives away players is the only thing you can think of to help with the situation, that says a lot about your creativity as a GM.

Damage is MD or Structural Damage (SD).
Armor/Structural Capacity is MDC or SDC.

That does make a lot more sense in context with the other available mods. It's basically an ammo-saving mod. Got it. Thank you for your help.

Thanks, that's what I was looking for. The help is much appreciated.

Thanks for the reply.

It's the rules for MDC rope that I was hoping to find more than the rules for W.P. skills. I can only find references that it exists, but nothing concrete beyond that.

I'm particularly puzzled because the main thing about volleys seems to be that if you fire four, it makes all of them immune to being dodged for some reason. So that seems an incredibly powerful option when converting firearms or even just grenade launchers.

Hopefully I'm not misunderstanding, and this can be used for any similar topic.

If so, do any of you know where I can find information for MDC rope, lassos, whips, and similar rules? I know I've seen some whips before, but I'm not so sure about the others.

I didn't want to start a new topic, but I have a somewhat related question.

My problem is that I can't seem to find any rules for guns ...
