Hadn't heard about that. Do you know how that will differ than renewing your subscription after you receive your 4th and last Rifter of your subscription?

Traditionally, Palladium does a subscription drive around this time every year, which usually includes an added bonus gift. Here is the one from last year...

The Rifter® 2017 Super-Subscription Offer

• $16 savings off cover price
• Free gift(s) worth $20.95 to $43.85
• Free shipping of each issue in the USA
• Each fun issue delivered to your doorstep
• Each issue a sourcebook for the Palladium Megaverse®
• Offer ends Tuesday, February 28, 2017, at Midnight

The cover price of The Rifter® is $13.95 – a steal for 96 pages of RPG source material and adventures. But a subscription gets you The Rifter® delivered to your doorstep for only $9.95 an issue. And you can select a free gift worth $20.95 to $43.85 available only during this special offer, for the cost of shipping and handling. All prices are in U.S. dollars. Offer ends February 28, 2017 (a bit longer for subscribers only).

• $39.80 – USA. That’s only $9.95 each, a savings of $16.00, and Palladium pays the shipping! Plus you get to select a FREE subscriber’s gift worth $20.95-$43.85 (please include $7.00 to cover shipping and handling). That’s $46.80 total including shipping and handling for the free gift. Note: This rate is limited to subscribers in the USA only. Sorry.
• $61.80 – Canada. That’s $15.45 for each issue of The Rifter®, plus you get to select a FREE subscriber’s gift (please include $12.00 to cover shipping and handling). That’s $73.80 including the gift item. That’s still not a bad price for four 96 page sourcebooks. Our apologies for the higher cost, but Palladium Books cannot cover the cost of postage to other countries. We hope you understand.
• $75.80 – Overseas. That’s $18.95 for each 96 page issue, plus you get to select a FREE subscriber’s gift (please include $20.00 to cover shipping and handling). That’s $95.80 including the gift item. We are only passing along the additional postage cost, but it is hefty. Our apologies. Postal rates are out of our hands. Likewise, the purchaser is responsible for any duty or customs fees.

Note: Please indicate if the gift items are NOT wanted. You may decline the gift and get your subscription for the regular price of $39.80 (USA), $61.80 (Canada) or $75.80 (other countries). Offer ends February 28, 2017 (a little longer for subscribers only).

Usually it doesn't start until February. So, check back in a few days.

They haven't even finished last year 4 book Rifter run yet. Rifter #79 I believe is the
fall Rifter (in Jan/Feb). After Rifter #80 comes out then they can run the Rifter
subscription drive.

Yup I am pretty sure that is why we are not seeing the rifter drive yet until rifter 79 is out the door.

It starts Saturday night!

Am I just missing what the seven gift choices are?
