Very cool - will be incorporating some of these into my games!

I wanted to share some random starship encounters I created for use in an Anvil Galaxy campaign focused near Altess space. Any of the encounters could take place elsewhere and can be tailored to individual campaigns. I would enjoy seeing what others may add to this list. Starships and Encounter Idea...

Have you checked out the Naruni ships in Dimensional Outbreak? There is a cruiser that has I believe four destroyer type ships that dock with it, makes the cruiser a little more formidable by giving it a boost at expense to destroyers.

May be something to look at.

I agree with Caballis134269 in that the stat requirements are way too low - lower than the average stats for an Altess, given the bonuses they receive. In my game, they choose between H to H: Martial Arts, and H to H: Commando, but the latter costs more related skill slots. Also, wouldn't make Pilot...

I can't remember which book it was in, but remember a section on slang terms commonly used in the three galaxies. Had stuff like "Don't go getting all tentacles and eyeballs on me." referring to splugorth/evil.

I love the "new" style dead boy armors, and would like to see kits released of these, preferrably with multiple poses and optional weapon choices. 32mm would be ideal, but 28mm would be good as well. As the Coalition are more often than not the bad guys, the more the better. And if a table...

Preferably tech-based, but TW-oriented could work too. More on the Good/Neutral spectrum of alignment, but not strictly required either. Truth be told tech-based is not even essential, having human-level intelligence is good enough for having a flexible definition of "advanced" societies ...

*sniff* Well, at least I have never given money to Palladium BEFORE they books were actually present. They are worse than Kickstarter... -STS They are. Love their material, but even when they provide a timeframe for release of new books, it is generally months later before they are actually released.

Follow up to this line of questioning: What would a "restored" In'Valian look like? What would their stats be?

Here are current links to my Anvil Galaxy map.

Posted this last year, my homebrew map of the Anvil Galaxy.

Species III (Altess Space) Coladin – red skinned humanoid species, average height and build, hair and eye color range across the spectrum. Dress and mannerisms similar to early 19th century Earth, with fewer nationality distinctions. Technology is likewise in the early industrial age, with a blend o...

I've been working on/compiling an index of the Rifts books that I have either hardcopy or PDF of. This is still a work in progress. I'm still playing with formatting and layout. In fact, the layout has already changed a couple of times since I started this a while ago. m I chose to do it in Google ...

Character points are an additional way to customize your character and help them to grow as they advance in experience. We’ve used a version of this system for our Palladium games for more than 25 years. To justify use of character points, role-playing and backstory should be considered. As with all...

There have been some wonderful fan created races and materials on the boards - would there be some way for Palladium to contract with fans to utilize said material, revamping some of it where necessary to keep in line with other published books? I would love to see some of the wonderful ideas people...

"Small but Fierce? How 'Fierce' can they be? They're like a meter tall! So fluffy and CUTE! Wait... Wait.. what's it doing with that plasma cannon?? No.. STOP! I DIDN'T MEAN IT! ACK RUN!! It's pissed off now!" Procylonians: The Procylonians are a smallish species from a distant star syste...

Welcome! Hope it enhances your games!

Yeah, have computer limitations and have never found a good program for making galaxy maps. Played around with some different mapping programs for fantasy games but haven't found anything good for sci-fi galaxy or solar system maps. Played around with some 3d graphing programs for galaxies, but agai...

m m Never did any link sharing, so I hope these links work. The first is to the map itself, the second is a list of coordinates and the source material they are from, along with page numbers. The resources without reference materials/page numbers just have names, i.e., "Zyganian," and can ...

I'm working on revising a map I made of the Anvil Galaxy, and wanted to see if (1) Anyone is interested in such a map, and (2) How I would go about posting if the answer to (1) is Yes. I've incorporated some of the fan races/empires, and have made a 2D map with a 3D coordinate system for calculating...
