Has anyone thought of Outlaw Star and their Caster Rounds!? Been there done that. Please elaborate what rules did you use and in what setting i often picture the Bushi federation of phase world as a mix between outlaw star nd cowboy bebop. Space oni!!!! Simple, we used TW crystals on the tips of re...

I'm surprised that they don't have a setup like the one that the US Army was considering where a Stryker is modified so it only has the drivers position and the entire rear of the vehicle is vertical missile launch tubes. The unit follows behind an advancing line, designated soldiers are equipped w...

I didnt think an ancient master could select karmic power.

They can't

Yes actually. Switch O.C.C's using the conversion book and you should be able to.

3 Majors: Control Kinetic Force, Create Force Field and Energy Absorption. The only weakness should be radiation.

I gotta say that the one power that jumps out of me for being overpowered is flight:insect. I get to shrink to a foot in size or smaller and can fly up to 10,000 feet? And it's a minor power? Sign me up! As far as powers that are too powerful or not powerful enough, I have stated in other threads t...

An RTS can deal with the unbalanced nature of the the RPG. Treat it like Dawn of War and none of the sides are really good or bad. Yup, said that already. Too bad THQ is gone, not that they'd show interest. I personally love unbalanced games - which is probably the reason I love RIFTS so much. I lo...

GBAnnihilator

No, PB should not itself create a video game. Nor Hire someone to. If some game company wants to license the Rifts setting for a video game...sure, fine, whatever. Best option. (stamp) The only problem with the best option is that it does not give people something to argue over. That's more along t...

I don't know how well the time token system would work. People I know (including myself) would rather like to go on for their leisure instead of thinking their forced to by the time token system. Though, I don't recall playing a game with one, so I can't really say it's a bad idea until I've tried ...

GBAnnihilator

That's great in theory, but in reality, an unknown ip in the video game world that makes a less than mediocre Facebook game, doesn't get a quality game later on. It goes in the trash. It's also about brand management for Palladium. They can't afford to have one of their premier IPs being associated...

GBAnnihilator

A facebook, "free to play, pay to win" game is not that cosmic to make or maintain. People would try it just because its a game on facebook. It would reach out to millions of people who either think Rifts is some other game without the "s", or has no idea what Rifts or Palladium...

GBAnnihilator

If we don't want mainstream then we need to have Palladium make a Kickstarter to support their DayZ like mod game. Which would be a testbed to send to the people they want to make it into a full platform or PC game. If the game doesn't get picked up, Palladium could just send copies to those who bac...

GBAnnihilator

Been done. m To be fair I would love to see a PC adaptation or a new game, since you know the N-Gage is pretty much dead. But yeah Rifts run like Fallout 1 or 2 it looks AWESOME, but it is next to impossible to find both an N-Gage and the game. That game is ancient and horrible, which is why a reva...

This may have been posted before but, I've collected and collaborated with my friends and family. We have found that most people anymore are hardcore videogame addicts who don't care much for board games. The game should surround the Tolkeen Wars and the three cities; Tolkeen, Free Quebec and Chi-To...

TW-Glitter Borg! Cyborgs brain downloaded onto a hard-drive inside the G-Borg, so when the brain is downloaded it keeps it's ISP and Psyonic powers. Then the Nuclear Power Core would be replaced by a TW Mystic Generator (rechargable at a Leyline), witch would power the G-Borg and it's TW weapons and...

GBAnnihilator

There was an NPC in a game long ago (depicted in my sig, Operation Sniper Wolf) that was a glitter boy borg. He had black chromium armor and some kind of TW enchantment that silenced his boom gun. Wasn't the kind of guy you wanted to mess with. I know this was your campaign, but the only thing you ...

GBAnnihilator

Glitter Borg! A cyborg custom fit into a GB. This should increase the MDC by about 280, from cyborg MDC. Then on the useless left arm a 12ft tall Glitter Shield (chromium tower shield-made by Quebec of course) with at least 300 MDC. 770+280= 1050+300= 1350 I thought it would make sense since Quebec ...

GBAnnihilator

I'd say that one of the best ways to enhance a Glitter Boy would be to use alchemist enchantments from PFRPG. (Picking stuff via memory, since my books aren't close by) Armor: Invisible* Regeneration Impervious To Fire/Heat Buoyant Boom Gun Invisible* Indestructible Thunder Hammer *Yes, Invisibilit...

Free Quebec, page 84: "Triax Glitter Boy Note: Reprinted from Rifts® World Book Five: Triax & the NGR™, pages 45-48, with additional text and data specific to Free Quebec." There's the updated material. Does the Triax GB as presented in Free Quebec still fire at Mach 1.5? The original...

Radios are too restricted by range, and a jammer only needs to jam the one transmitting. Yes that might work for the military but I'm trying to connect the cities. The CS could also make a giant MDC drill to connect the cities by putting the cables and whatever else too far for seismic sensors to d...

GBAnnihilator

burying cables is not a particularly easy thing to conceal. it generally involves a lot of machinery. so, let us suppose for a moment you do that. one of your many enemies takes the time to note where your lines are, and distributes maps (assuming this is even necessary, considering you're probably...

GBAnnihilator

Then the CS could put the solar roadways in the burbs and have the burbies work on them, instead of connecting the Megacities with them. The roads could also be used to root out hiding D-bees and find people that could become Operators.

GBAnnihilator

My question is who would be funding this new variant? How far it goes and in what direction is determined by the budgeting and it's source. I had first just thought of giving the GB an 11ft tall chromium tower shield (200 MDC) with drills in the base for even more recoil suppression, and was going ...

GBAnnihilator

My idea was to give the GB an Kitani class 1/2 (200/150MDC) if not some kind of tower shield, and a Naruni Force Field that doubles on power armor (320MDC). To top it off, give him a Kitani Plasma Sword for melee combat.

GBAnnihilator

It depends on the theam of the power armor, and how munchkin you want to make it. The Crazy Het TW SAMAS killer PA is a fling suit of PA with deflect, invincible armor, bound teleport (a teleport spell and magic net teleports 10 feet from the target and an energy tether bind them at close range for...

if it cost us nothing to make solar panels, it would probably be a good idea. but it doesn't cost nothing. which is why we don't use solar power for everything. that's why they're recycling garbage to make the roads so it reduces the price and gets rid of garbage.

The nation might even be able to get the economy out of the toilet. Just think of what the CS could do with all the extra creds. Not to take this further off-topic, but the Coalition "prints" it own money, they can valueate it as they need to, effectively unchecked as they are their own b...

It would be even less practical in rifts timeline than today (people with more money than brains fell for and are funding this) It's Massive waste of resources and i'd be stealing those panels like a over juiced juicer to get at all that hardware that I could put to far better use.

Another modern method is to use high-altitude bombers. Bombing from 50,000 feet or just under 5 miles up. The bombs could be refitted LRM warheads. Using Proton Torpedoes (6D6x10 MD, 50 foot blast radius) or Heavy Plasma/Heat warheads (5D6x10 MD, 50 foot blast radius), and carpet bomb a battlefield...

GBAnnihilator

Well, how about we combine some ideas here. After all, the primary use of the Glitter Boy Killer idea is for the Coalition States to more efficiently combat Free Quebec, right? Start the assault with strategic air support in the form of carpet bombers. Simply converting the old USAF bombers is far ...

Back on the Artillery idea. Could the CS make something like a Mountaineer, but with two huge Howitzer cannons on the back and multiple different turrets on the sides. Maybe they could also take the smart missile and turn it into a smart round so that infantry can laser target an enemy for more acc...

to be fair, within the context of the thread people keep complaining about using multiple other units to defeat a glitterboy. and yet, that is almost definitely the exact tactic that the CS would use, so it really shouldn't be disqualified. for example, my artillery scheme. well within the CS techn...

techno-wizards explicitly only have the ability to build spells into devices not psionics. Although there is the convenient overlap of spells that are also psionics like Astral Projection or See the Invisible. Oracle also seems similar to Clairvoyance.

Still the CS centaur had issues firing the mini-missiles from the small conversion from robot to centaur, let alone robot or power armor.

After analyzing the Flying Titan vs. GB scenario, I've come to really like the CS missile Rifle, and I think that it'd be a powerful force against a GB. With that in mind, I think that a CS Combat Borg might well be the best option. Main Body: 280 MDC, plus MI-B2 Medium Infantry Armor: 230 MDC. Tot...

I personally wouldn't go the Full TW Conversion route, but I like blending magic and technology. I never liked having to essentially sacrifice and replace the base utility of the techo-goodie.
