Biomechanical computers........anyone else looked into a hardware character focused on building biomechanical computers, exoskeletons, robots and power armour? I liked the muscle suit posted was hoping stuff like that would be Hardware Unlimited.

eoptap

So I wonder when the official Hardware Unlimited being played at the open house. Will any of the ideas in this post make it into a rifter or the book itself. Will a release date finally be announced for Hardware Unlimited?

One more day left of the convention, When I do not get enough players I am just handing out Palli promo extras, People have been calling me the "Rifts Fairy" bringing gifts of Rifters. People who have never heard of it thumbed threw the books, and got excited at some of the art, and other stuff.

Any updates on the progress of Hardware Unlimited?

eoptap

i wanted to keep it heroes unlimited style, and be able to be added to existing hero abilities. a hunter/vigilante henchman would be fearsome indeed.

You can use it and still keep the HU feel. Look at the rifter some of the powers are hero abilities as well. Shape changing, psionics, magic. Age ...

HI My advice remember to have fun. You as the game master should not think of yourself as god. Treat your players with respect, and remember they are as important to the story as you are. The rules are confusing at first, and you have allot to go through. Make it simple you do not need to have them ...

Online gaming is a great avenue you just need to not let one or two people run the night. I am in a few games I have a hard time wanting to be in. I enjoy them as people but as gamers a few of them like to take the spotlight and go off topic for hours. Most gamers that I have gamed with have this ...

What about the vampires in rifter 49 they should work.

If you have finished the research, and have all the equipment prototype could take up to a year, and that's only bc you fail a roll, and have to start over. It could take longer it could take shorter. Though I am not an engineer, on the plus side the person who is writing Hardware Unlimited is, and ...

Actually one of the writers at the last open house made mention about the fact he had a hardware or Technologies unlimited in the works. Something about finishing it after he is done with N&SS 2. Hope it gets finished and it completes the construction rules for technologies. I have high hopes he is ...

I have no problem with seeing a Hardware Character or Super Inventor creating/using a Portable Force Bridge.
Especially in my game worlds which tend to be a bit on the High Tech side.

Plausible? Pfft! This is a game.
Even games have internal logic...if hardware characters could invent items with ...

I can see no technical reason for having a AR greater the 20 to counter mod'ed strike rolls. [Note I am not disagreeing with TD, nor DM about it's max use in canon. Even though TD's example if from rifts.]

However, my opinion is that the absolute max AR a armor can have is 21. With a nat 20 still ...

I am a little late to the topic, but let me point a few things out, if I am wrong please correct me.

A hardware unlimited has long been bandied about as wishlist item.

I think uh, Baron or DLDC might have something about that on their websites, not sure exactly.

The Genius classes state that only their skill(s) with their main building/construction subject goes beyond 98%, the Natural Genius ...

I need an official ruling just to clarify the rules on the Geniuses classes in HU Please be prompt and official not looking for home ruling looking for official.

I did!

"Man I wish they sold shot glasses this year" another rifts convention goer said as he looked at the coffee cups.

"They do those are Juicer shot glasses" I said pointing at the coffee cups.

"Ha ha" he said, "yea they would be a shot glass for me!"

The conversation was something like that.

I cannot Imagine going on Vacation without the funds to drink coffee.

Again, it's not actually the price of coffee that is the problem. ....

To my humble tastes, it is only the quality of the coffee that often is a problem. I love coffee. Sometimes you get that filter stuff that tastes like ...

Hi there,

this was my first open house, it will not be the last. I have seen my share of conventions but this one is really special. To say that the Open House was fun would be saying far too little. It was awesome. It is in a nutshell really as simple as that: awesome.

I could meet most of the ...

Before the convention I played in few rifts games. I lived through all the games I think, but of course I did not get to play the robotech game so that might be the only reason. I enjoyed it completely, and look forward to the next one. Have my first rifts book. Hey Kevin next year I will try not to ...

I bought my first rifts book at the open house, and met a good number of new friends but for the life of me cannot remember most of their names. Splitting the cost of the room helps, and buying things like pop tarts, chips, and bringing refillable water bottles. If I had not given in to the Ryan's ...
