I'm thinking of buying Rifts COnversion book and Rifts Bionics and see if it would be easy to convert the Bionics in the sourcebook into the Heroes Unlimited world.. Has anyone already done this??

With the Bionics Sourcebook i've done that quite a lot......its pretty easy, just convert M.D.C. Bionics to S.D.C. and leave everything else the same. Also since Rifts prices are credits and Heroes Unlimited prices are dollars, when converting stuff to HU i increase the prices in the Bionics Sourcebook by 50%, and thats the price in dollars

So the Rifts Conversion Book isn't necessary then???

BTW, Thanks....

For HU bionics I would get the AUGG book for the bionics it has in it. And use those in both books to come up with a conversion ratio to use to convert between the two.

I agree with Drew. I think that is an easier way to do the conversion.

I've always considered that the Rifts Bionics book to be a sourcebook for HU. All you
do is covert credit to dollars.
