It's original to the game.

I'm sure it will be released as a softcover eventually.

I picked it up when it came out. Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to play it, but I do like it.

Rali

These two books contain all the non-AtB TMNT content that had been published.

Which ones?

Rali

It better not be just a reprint of the same rules with new art.

Rali

Doctor Feral appears in the main book and TMNT Adventures, Transdimensional TMNT, and TMNT Guide to the Universe.

His name is dropped in a few other books, but doesn't actually make an appearance.

Rali

If it's okay with your GM, then the GM decision trumps the book.

Happy Holidays AtB Fam!!

After watching Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts , I've been thinking that setting would make for an awesome alternate history. Setting basics: Sometime by the 23rd century, animals have mutated to become anthropomorphic creatures known as "mutes". Most mutes rose up against their human opp...

Is this worth getting if you don't have the physical book already? Or should I just get the regular paperback? I already have the PDF from the Bundle of Holding sale. Thanks for any thoughts anyone has on the matter. It would be a nice item to have if you've been wanting to pick up a physical copy ...

They could have added 30+ pages of color illustrations like they did with the Rifts books. That would have actually made me want to buy it. That would have been quite an investment for a game that has more-or-less fallen to the side. Including the Yucatan material doesn't really cost then anything....

So I just found out that Palladium is releasing an Hardcover AtB 2nd Edition book containing "the original AtB sourcebook and Yucatan Adventures". I'm not sure how I feel that they are including the original material instead of an updated version that's compatible with 2nd Edition. On the ...

Palladium is notorious for recycling content without updating them. Ignore the BIO-E on the table and only use the BIO-E listed on the animal template.

So, it turns out that with no one but myself to participate in a solo game, I find it quite easy to blow off game sessions. Anyway, the latest recap of the last solo session. I'm going to include some of the inner workings of how my solo session ran with the Cards and Emulator mechanics. Let me know...

Rali

I'll see if I can post a once a week update. I'll also try to answer any questions anyone may have about solo roleplaying.

Rali

Well, I finally ran myself through a Session using a few devices to build with. The setting I picked was: Fur & Brimstone (something I've been tinkering with that's basically a modern unnamed city under the threat of demons), the scenario was picked by drawing cards,from The GameMaster’s Apprent...

I'm curious if there are any of you out there Solo Role Playing After the Bomb, or TMNT. If so, I'd love to hear about it. Honestly, I hadn't even heard of Solo Role Playing as being a thing until recently. I haven't started yet, but I've been watching numerous YouTube channels for inspiration and g...

Rali

Honestly, unless your adventure is taking place in the old west, the dimensions of your wagon could be whatever you want it since it's not like anything in AtB would be exactly the same as those used in the 1800's, which seems to be what you are looking for. If you are looking for a wagon pulled by ...

I found one of the old posts regarding this same question: TMNT QUESTION

Wow, also 2007... How time flies

The question also came up in a post on House Rules, but I didn't see anything in there that seems to be of help that isn't covered in the post above.

Rali

This issue comes up every so often. It's no mistake for AtB or TMNTaOS, and somewhere in the posts you can find a response as to why. Basically, it was an intentional omission as the creators didn't see TMNTaOS as a long term campaign setting. *shrug* I addressed this back in '07 for AtB with the Te...

For me, playing TMNT at about 15 or 16, the creation of the animal was what I loved the most. I'd wager most of us have spent way more time creating characters with TMNTaOS and AtB than we have actually playing. And I agree, the mutant animal creation rules are one of the CORE aspects of both. Than...

Rali

I've been toying with the idea of 'Savaging' TMNT/AtB and am curious how important this community thinks the Mutant Animal creation/building aspect is in maintaining the flavor of the setting as opposed to simplifying the mutant animals to reflect the traditional comic appearance (No Looks, Full/Par...

HOT WIRE Hook: Stange sounds and lights are seen coming from a neighborhood park late one night.

The two kids both appear to b...

Are you running the TCRI as bad guys in your campaign?

Rali

I'm game to see what I can come up with. I'd just like a little info:

When is your campaign taking place? (Classic 80's TMNTaOS, Modern 20XX, or Future 20XX+)

Where is your campaign taking place?

Are you just looking for one-shot adventure hooks?

Are there any themes you'd like to focus on?

Rali

Stats would depend on what kind of zombie you are looking to depict: Shambler, Sprinter, or Freak (Zombie w/ Special Abilities). A generic stat-block for one might go like: Hit Points: 1D4 (Headshots only) S.D.C.: 25 (may vary) IQ: 4, ME: 8, MA: 1, PS: 18, PE: 18, PB: 1, PP: 4, Spd: (Shambler: 1D4, ...

Incidentally, which book are you pulling Horsemanship from? In relation to TMNT/AtB, it really only appears in Transdimensional TMNT and Heroes Unlimited.

Rali

If you're riding an 'animal' of human intelligence, you're probably doing so with their consent and thus "Horsemanship" probably wouldn't factor into it unless the GM wan't to use that to see if the rider can hold on when the steed maneuvers in combat or while at a full gallop, and thus bo...

While poking at an AtB scenario I've been working on-and-off on for a few years ( The Things We Leave Behind ), I had the idea of turning the underlying theme into a game setting.

I made my old sheets in Google Docs, but those don't open properly formatted anymore, so I'll need to recreate them. Can you open Microsoft documents, or do you need them in another format?

GM's choice.

Not knowing what books you have: You can find the stats for a tank on page 180 of AtB 2nd Ed (page 11 of the original), and you can find an APC on page 32 of Mutants of the Yucatan. Page 222-227 of the Heroes Unlimited Revised (First Edition) has numerous military vehicles. Page 216-219 in Heroes Un...

Doc Feral was supposed to be a creation of Eric Wujcik from what I understood from Kevin S.

You'll have to let us know if the Doc Feral they use in this series is the same as the one in the RPG, of just happens to have the same name.

My intent wasn't to track morality with this stat, but the disconnect (not sure if that's the correct term) one experiences and accumulates with certain tough survival decisions (see "This War of Mine"). Another term I might consider using is "Burnout". For example: * You receive...

I want to add a stat in my upcoming game to track the character's growing disconnect as they face the tough decisions that are so abundant in survival situations. I'm not sure if I should call it Apathy or Humanity; comments/thoughts are welcome. I'm planning on this being a twenty point track that ...

Don't forget Beyond the Supernatural if you're looking for Psychic or Magic characters, they could probably transfer over easily. Never tried it myself.

Thanks for posting this. I heard part of the story and was going to look for it.

Thanks for submitting your work! I'll have to order a copy. I also really need to find the time and gumption to start submitting AtB material.

Do you have any suggestions you can share from your experience submitting your work?
