I'm currently working on a small campaign for a few online players. One of the character's is your basic joe blow who for reasons "good hearted, good headed, etc." was selected by a dying mage hero to receive his powers via transference. Basically, he pulled a green lantern, only with magi...

and well, the good news is that there is the start of a fairly strong streak of support for RTT in the 3D printer communities, with a number of sellers on Shapeways and other such sites. till now they'd mainly done stuff for 'wave 2' content, or the non-macross Era's, but i've seen a few of them st...

GundamChief

Thought of this myself. I think a Splicers or Systems Failure variation would be pretty cool to see. Customizing units on the splicer side would be where most of the crafting time would be spent as most machine forces are cut and paste. Numbers could make that even for the machines though. Systems F...

Well, guess one has to figure that the Earth R&D establishment took a serious hit in the Rain of Death. Attention was focused on other projects with bigger payoffs(new mecha designs, greater warhead yields, better guidance systems, Fold drives, etc,) and so CIWS got short shrift. Frankly though...

I decided to look and see if Palladium actually does make Mini's yesterday.

Turns out they do! Alot of them! They are made of pewter, and the selection is a bit limited with focus on the Coalition. So I'm gonna be buying some when I get home from being out of state.

GundamChief

Application sent.

GundamChief

I've always run the Coalition the same way one runs the Imperium in Warhammer 40k. In any other setting, the Imperium are the badguys, but in their home setting, they are simply the arguably least worst to deal with. In Rifts, while the Coalition is nowhere near the same level of "screwed"...

GundamChief

I'm gonna be honest. After what happened over the last month...I am genuinely worried about Palladium's future (and Robotech's future as an IP come 2021 for that matter).

So...I'm gonna try and help. Better to try and fail then to try and never know.

I already did something earlier today here on where they could go in new media, but I will reply here for emphasis. They need to get their YouTube Channel back up and running, though looking at it I think making a "New" channel with their actual name on it would be better because when I lo...

GundamChief

A little late to the game here, but here's my opinion. They need to expand into six areas, which the poll in the OP has shown alot of people agree with. I'll start with the Easiest and then go down to the hardest. 1: PDFs and E-books. It has been said since back in 2012, but this needs to be done. I...

GundamChief

I do it all the time. In my experience you don't have to have alot of NPCs or references ready, unless you are planning out an actual campaign which is still minimal compared to a group game. The good is that games are easy to keep track of, and games that are more "Slice of Life" are very...

GundamChief

For Rifts I use a variety when I run. D&D minis for the more magical, classical, primitive based classes or societies. Some Warhammer, but not many since aside from Chaos, there's little there that actually fits Rifts. Fallout Warfare. I have my bundle, so I'll get a fair amount of use if I run ...

GundamChief

It is a Heroes Unlimited campaign, with a bit of TMNT thrown in.

I should have made the original post more simple. looking back at it, it comes off a little strangely. What I need is page numbers for random tables best suited for enounter generation.

GundamChief

To put it simply, I have a problem. It has been many years since I had run a game that lasted more then a few hours and wasn't just messing around. I had forgotten most of the rules, but I am slowly remembering the more complicated ones. I was able to run a game with a decidedly cinematic feel but h...

Wikipedia: In 2002, a sighting of a large birdlike creature, with a wingspan of around 14 feet, was reported in Alaska. Scientists suggested the giant bird may have simply been a Steller's Sea-Eagle, which have a wingspan of 6-8 feet. hmm, I kinda remember that...well not really. On the Glen-Highwa...

GundamChief

The Demon or monster bear reminded me of the HISTORY CHANNEL MONSTERQUESt when they did the show on the killer bears . Yeah I've seen that too. They downplayed it quite abit from how much there really was to the legends and stories but that was pretty much what they were talking about. There are al...

GundamChief

Hey all, I'm sorry I have taken so long to reply to this topic but life up here can get..cold and hectic. anyways, last post i said I would come up with some more information, I decided to cover a little on the mystical aspect of Alaska. For this I had looked up most of the legends and myths of Alas...

GundamChief

If it is breathing life into it that you need, then you don't have to look no furthur then Robotech. Same premise, a giant vehicle that due to events beyond one's control (Rifts earth is vicious as is space) people basically turned it from a machine made purley for battle to something of a home. Ano...

GundamChief

I have used such vehicles in my games, most of my inspiration comes from reading "Bolo" novels and from time to time playing "Ogre" from Steve Jackson Games. http://www.sjgames.com/ogre/ Nothing gets the Coalition off thier butts faster then one (or in my games case six) 30,000 t...

GundamChief

Well, I would try as I have lots of my own ideas and such, but lack of experiance and knowledge of what to do holds me back. Plus...i would be what you consider shy, this is in regards about sending in my things

GundamChief

Thank you for the complement Aramanthus. here's a few more notes. I've done some looking into some information I wasn't clear on my last post and am adding new information and opening new options with some of them. In regards to the Military, Alaska is a site of great strategic importance to the Dep...

GundamChief

A few things to bear in mind when it comes to the coming of the rifts. Despite the fact the right now most of the population is near the coast, in the future (2098 A.D.) most the larger population would live inwards away from the coast. Living in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley (near the Knik Glacier r...

GundamChief

just throwing it out there but, would it be wrong to guess that another reason for renewing Robotech be because he has a large stock of robotech books that haven't been sold yet, which would provide the company a sort of...money making oppertunity and put thier sales up again at some convention some...

As far as the intentions of K.S. goes, it doesn't matter what his initial ideas were and what they are now when it comes to japan, it here like it or not. second, the Traversing the world by Tarn was written in 100 P.A., it was in 87 P.A. that the city which would eventually become the Republic of J...

Would Atlantis survive the orbital bombardment? It would certainly dramatically alter the world situation. The obvious answer is no, they wouldn't survive. Their Psychics would probably sense the impending doom but wouldn't know the exact source. As for the world situation, not only would there be ...

GundamChief

While 40 foot tall giants would make great slave stock you still ave to feed them.

I think they would make an exception, especially with all of the applications they could do. Like a super Bio-borg or super cyborgs just to name a few.

GundamChief

If they made a novelization of the Tristine Chronicals and stories on the Defilers, consider me sold.

GundamChief

Well, unless something happens to specifically disrupt it (ie a interaction with the ley lines), 30 ships would mop up the orbitals and establish a space pressence without difficulty. I would think that appearing in orbit around Rifts earth would be disruptive enough, and the moon has ley-lines so ...

GundamChief

In robotech the zentraedi who are in south america are in an area called the Zentraedi Control Zone. In this area they established bases of operations that were more or less scattered, forcing them to leave the protection of thier area to raid and enslave human communities. In Zentraedi Breakout, it...

Wow... what a long thread. I wonder why the character is taking the CS head on at all, that's just pure stupidity! Especially if the character is a native of Rifts Earth, because then he knows he's screwed. Not really rooting for the Invulnerable character, but wouldn't it be easier for him to just ...

GundamChief

Oh wow!

I've lost this site awhile back, thanx!

GundamChief

Psi-hound + Kill Hound =...Psycho-Hound?

A hound with the capabilities of a normal psi-hound but with the physical abilities and personality of a kill-hound...scary!

GundamChief

Okay, checked the OCC for cybernetics, now where are the cybernetics themselves?

GundamChief

Okay here are my questions. 1. apparently humans can mate with other races (Kirn in paticular) so is there halflings or are the offspring just one or the other? 2. There is supposed to be Bionics (as it shows) but I don't see any stats for Bionics or Cybernetics, so is there something I'm missing or...

GundamChief

Zer0 beats you down for comparing Robotech to Battletech that is like comparing Gundam to Battletech. I wasn't comparing Robotech with Battletech, I just said I like them both and my reason for the mention is because the Warhammer IIC is my favorite Battlemech (with the Orion being second). . I hop...

GundamChief

I choose the RDF Excaliber because it is my favorite ground pounder mecha. Plus I like BattleTech and I would modify it in so many ways. 1. better armor (laser resistant, may not matter with pulse but whatever) 2. replace lasers with Rifts lasers. 3. replace missile launchers with rifts launchers, b...

I has been awhile since I post on the boards, This thread may be old but I saw the warmounts and had to make one. Slappy, I know you've had tons of complements but, Your War mounts are pure Glory. These are up in my top ten Di-Mega Cool catagory, and Iv'e seen alot of stuff too. Keep it up. anyway H...

GundamChief

I am still asking my self though, just how lethal can a 10.6 micrometer laser beam be? Depends on how much energy is going into the beam, if it is in the Kw range it will probably be the equivlant of SW weaponry, Mw range though.......now your getting into Mobile suit gundam. What happens if you ge...

I thought of this a bunch of times but didn't bring it up. Although KS said that he was working on the long overdue "Mechanoid Space RPG" he never said that anyone couldn't send in stuff for Mechanoids in Rifter. Just curious but, Is it okay to send in stuff or not. Cause if it is, I got a bunch of ...

GundamChief

Spawn for me. He's a cool character and I like the demonic aspect, esspecially doing almost anything. Bishop is also cool, never read the comic in which he first appeared saw him in the cartoon while with the sentinals. Unfortunantly I like villains a little more, and the best villain for me is Chap...

I read all of the books I have and have a couple that mention the OCC but does anyone know where I can find the "Rune Smith" OCC or is that like the Alchemist (Which is mainly a NPC). I got a few Ideas I just thought up but need to know if OCC is around or not. Also, besides the stuff in the RPG. Wh...

GundamChief

Still....

Nice fiction addition.

GundamChief

Yeah, sometimes. But I found it was more fun to bring Rifts into Macross II and cause havoc. Imagine the look on The face of a Marduk Officer flying a gilgamesh II when he sees his leg blown off in one shot by a tiny little silver robot (Glitter boy, heh). By the way, Where did you get that cool ani...

GundamChief

Hell yeah! All my bad guys are either just really mean, or they are world dominators/ Destroyers. One guy I made was named "Infurnius" and he was a really baaad dude. he was a mutant who had read skin and a skeletal looking body (you know skeleton bones on skin) with charcoal colored rock skin. he a...

GundamChief

ugh.

just double the damage or make it do x10 damage and ignore A.R.
that makes them just as powerful as they are in rifts in essence.

Armor, either double the MDC (Now SDC) or make it x10 as well, that way you are not going out of bounds, while still keeping the feel of a walking juggernaut.

GundamChief

I live out in the Knik River area, So I don't really know the people at bosco's , not well anyway. sorry. I'll look into that plan, Forgot to mention it's like 14 stories underground. By the way ROCC would just be the type of command NORAD would be a ROCC. ummm.......I'm confused what you mean there...

Okay, a couple of days ago I was on the net in a Forum talking to some fellow gamers. These gamers are mainly into warhammer/ warhammer 40k. I know very little about either one but I do know the Mechanoids, I knew that the could mop the floor of the universe with ever force sent at them from the Meg...

good sheets, helps save time to write (though I think mine are okay!) I think it is just stupid, why be a fan when you can just do it. I joined these boards so that I can talk about the games with other people who also play and learn more. I often find myself however unable to join in a conversation...
