In the rare circumstances that it would come up,it would he a reasonable house rule for other non-MDC beings doing MDC with their bare hands to take damage in SDC.

Perhaps crystal makes you faster, stronger, tougher, and stronger because the crystal armor focuses the akashic memory through your subquantum matrix and let's you bend reality by reversing the polarity of the tachyons.

Colonel_Tetsuya has the right of it. The entry says that this includes certain weapons. It doesn't say "only includes," and the presence of an actual definition for weapons covered is the final piece that shows us that the list is not exhaustive. That definition wouldn't be needed if the l...

Starting a campaign and one of my pc wants to be a shifter. Has anyone made or come up with a good way for rolling for his minions. Have all the books so trying to figure out a way to be able to randomly roll for where his portal is opening to and then what creature comes out. You could always use ...

Does a Godling get 3 or 2 Mega-Powers? I know they have at least 2 because: plus the Immortal power described on page 181 of HU2 (in the Mega-Hero section) and one other Special Mega-Power But do they get a third since they also roll as a Mega-Hero? Do they also get the Achilles heel, extra range/S...

We always just gave it to anyone with magic or psi automatically. We didn't make minor pyschics use one of their powers on it to have it.

I was pumped at the title, thinking that the Manhunters had infiltrated the Coalition as part of a devious new plot to contain humanity through taking over the government with sophisticated fleshcoats, or some other way of having Manhunters and the Coalition working together. I'm a little underwhelm...

Can your greater familiar who can cast spells get its own familiar?

There should be a Millenium Tree. For a little twist, make it an adolescent Millennium Tree. One that's not full grown and is need of protection. Perhaps the locals try to keep it secret from outsiders. The description of Millennium trees says that they are only in Afro-Euroasia and not in the Amer...

*double checks* No, actually, I just plain missed he said "some kinds" of Impervious to Energy and just saw "Impervious to Energy". That said, cut the attitude: Misunderstandings happen. Attributing some kind of deliberate malice or strawmanning on my part is just rude on your p...

Partical beams doing partial damage to some kinds of impervious to energy is the result of a game of Telephone on these forums I actually watched happen in slow motion over the years. 100% incorrect: Impervious to Energy An invisible magic aura surrounds the vehicle to protect it from most forms of...

Where are they getting the espers for the magitech?

One GM just would rewind when he forgot about Sixth Sense and just ruled that sometimes it gave much clearer pictures of what was about to happen than others. We found that fair.

Regarding having it be something that only a character could do as opposed to a deity or the deity's followers could do, I'd suggest keeping in mind that opportunity and knowledge of the nees to do said thing can make that the case as opposed to raw ability.

I know I'm a late entry, but i had a thought, what if space ley lines are a phenomena of gravitic flux lines, similar to magnetic flux lines, so if you had a material, that would allow you to detect and modle the effects, similar to iron dust/filings allow you to see the effect of the magnetic fiel...

Hate to say this but the offical Pro Athlete Is the Pro Combat Athlete in the Aliens Unlimited:Galaxy Guide. Yes,some people would bring up that it is a Skill Program as offically presented. But it has conversion notes to use the SP as a OCC. And, if I am remebering right, that is a sports OCC in o...

You may want to limit how many times PP can be enhanced on level-up, if not all the stats (perhaps no more than 5 times).

Yes you can. There is a curse in Eternal Torment called Undeath. You could curse a person and turn them into a Bone Fiend. The curse is supposedly localized in the Eternal Torment but technically you can apply any curse to a weapon, artifact, or even a given situation. And Garden of the Gods will h...

This may have been discussed before. I know that we had joked about it in my old group in college, but as I was re-reading Lone Star today I realized that I'd basicaly forgotten about it for over a decade. The Lone Star complex was found in 68 PA (WB13 p. 16). Desmond Bradford supposedly spent 10 ye...

Where there is a language skill unmodified is probably an option to select either, but I'm guessing only 1 language EVER can enjoy 88/1 instead of 50/3. One of the things that I wish Palladium would have done is expand the idea of "background skills" that we see with some classes like kni...

While I chose give the player one more chance, I'm also going to point out that you fix it it by being a GM and pointing out that what he said happened didn't happen, because you don't get to add in powers just because. Also, even if he DID have uncontrollable limited omniscience, then clearly the p...

There was a movie planned? out of rifts? seems a bit of a pipedream given the level of complexity in it. Wish i'd been around when it was discussed, what were the plans? Jerry Bruckheimer's company optioned it a while back, but major studios option oodles of stuff all the time without developing it...

That video actually shows just how little drift would likely have affected mutual intelligibility. It just sounds like how many learners of English read itbearly on in the process. Still easy to make out what they mean. That said, a major factor that is being forgotten here is rre-rifts media. We kn...

Wouldn't a "magic eugenics" character just be a bioborg (like the ones made by the Splugorth)? Nope, bioborgs, and other bio-wisardry things already in the books, would fall in the bionics or super soldier power cats. An error on my part, as I should have written "essentially" i...

Sure, but you'd just be wasting your PPE for no extra time dilation benefit (at most, you'd get an extra 20 ft area per level space separate from the original space to control...which would be fairly pointless, as only the caster and the casters possessions go into the time hole). You'd be teleporti...

@Axelmania: apparently the satire was lost on you.

I stand corrected, that is how the wording makes it work. That the total amount of PPE burned off to enhance the familiar is thirded to get the familiar's base PPE total. Thou, I would exclude the 20 PPE used to get this ability from the total being thirded. No, it doesn't grant the familiar a base...

Roadgangers killed your pet wallaby and now you are going to use a souped up 1973 Ford XB Falcon GT 351 to get your revenge on them. A 1973 Ford XB Falcon GT 351, I guess that would be very hard to come in Rifts Australia. Maybe hard to come by in Real Life. As far as I am concerned, player charact...

Also, early Chi-Town is stated to have Glitter Boys by Erin Tarn (presented as a known fact) in WB 22 (p. 21). They do give up on them due to not having the tech to make more towards the end of the Dark Ages, and there stockpile dwindled over time, but they may well have still been using them in the...

Palladium has a neutral energy matrix, so that Wilk's Laser Pistol ends up being a very sleek looking vellum-weight.

In WH40K i guess there's a bit of an excuse with genestealer infiltration (maybe) and travelling the Warp is a weird thing, one might "jump the gun" and arrive on target without appearing in the systems in the path. Kind of like if one or more Xiticix hives opened a huge rift in the middl...

basic concept: It creates a Base PPE into the familliar. the way it works: The mage burns off 3x PPE from her or his perm/base PPE to make the familliar have x perm/base PPE. There is no text saying wheater or not this ADDs to the animal's natrual PPE base or if the only PPE the familiar will have ...

While not on the topic of Gnomes..... I'd like to know if it's okay to use the Psyscape book to pick some of the newer powers after having rolled Major Psionics on the random Psionics table or is this book just for pure Psionics.

I think New Lazlo is an afterthought even Kevin's forgotton exists by now. Someday he'll remember about it and mention how they were all eaten by Tyranids Xiticix.

Given that the passage ends up presenting one point or no point, that doesn't do anything to support the idea of fractional damage.

A good choice for a laser weapon around PA-12 would be the venerable L-20 Pulse Rifle.

You guys are looking at the wrong spells. No need to go in yourself and plant an explosive. If you can find a way to make the location "known" to you, you can send 50 lbs of explosives there with an 80% + 2% per level chance of success. Given that having a photo of the place is enough to g...
