Re: Wanted to review energy weapons.
Considering that lasers are, unlike plasma, not blocked by immunity to fire the explanation for the damage should include a bit more than just thermal exchange.

Re: Chi-Town Details?
Is there any information on how much traffic Chi-Town sees each day? That would be rather important to know when it comes to infiltrating it. If there are only 100 or so people coming in each they you can have so extensive checks that infiltrating that way, magic or not, is impossible. On the other ...

Re: Orbital Community's response?
1. The orbitals first need to notice that something exceptional is going on. You have a view of the whole planet and satelites can do some highly detailed images, with Golden Age tech likely also from a higher Orbit, but earth is big and to see anything besides pristine wilderness you need to know w...

Re: Propose a Rifts World Book
Something about Greece and Anatolia. Especialy what happened to Istanbul. This city had been important for more than a millenia because of the location, wvy should this change in Rifts? I always had the idea that some skyskrapers on both sides of the Bosporous fell into each other creating a MDC arc...

Re: Any details on the Near and Middle East?
At this time, and really, for the last 4 decades, there's simply no way to portray the Middle East without offending some portion of the reader base in a way that isn't likely to happen even with a clumsy presentation of the Hindu or Shinto faiths. My advice to GMs wanting to do the Middle East? De...

Re: Any details on the Near and Middle East?
A strange decision imo.
Other RPGs had no problems with talking about that area (Shadowrun for example)

Any details on the Near and Middle East?
Is there any official information about the state ot the Near and Middle East? The Area of Syria and Israel and maybe even going up to Anatolia or even Greece. And then of course Arabia, Irak and Iran. And while I am at it, anything about India?

Re: Rifts European Royalties
perhaps with non-werewolf allies overseeing the actual day to day affairs of the territory. (much like the Huns and Mongols would incorporate their conquests into their social structure as subordinate elements, and supplements to their military might in areas the Huns/mongols themselves were weak.)...

What comes after the Minion War?
If I am not mistaken with the Minion War everything from the Planetary Distress has come to pass. Also it has the potential to really shake up the established power structure in Rifts.
So how do you think Rifts will continue?

Re: Rifts European Royalties
Don't forget that some of the old deposed royal bloodlines like Habsburg or Bonaparte are still around. If they survive the coming of the Rifts and rediscover the history of their family they might get it into their head that they are destined to recreate the kingdom(s) their family once ruled.

Re: Rifts European Royalties
You cant go wrong with a King of Transylvania (even when he is not a vampire).
The question is how much do you want to repeat history and how much new ideas do you want?

Re: A Rifts Video (Game) - 5 Minute Animated Short
There was a Rifts game for the NGage. It even got quite good reviews, but sadly the NGage tanked. I remember that when the Rift MMO was first announced I really hoped that they meant Rifts... I think that something like Pillars of Eternity/Wasteland 2/Numenera Torment would work for Rifts if they co...

Re: Dragon Metamorph... shapeshifting .
My totally, not even remotely, non-canon opinion. If a dragon changes to a human form, he's naked. But, if he puts on clothes, then transforms into his natural dragon form, the clothes go poof into the magic. Later when he transforms to human again, poof the clothes are on his human body. Hatchling...

Re: Lyric's speach
Desperate times require desperate measures. War has nothing to do with morality or justice. It’s all about winning or dying. We cannot bind our hands with high ideals, even our own, or worry about the laws of renegade nations or the rights of alien people. We must fight fire with fire. And you are ...

Re: Capture Starfortress
Dont try to control the Dominator, control the Boiwar to not blow up.
Or maybe you could use the connection the stasis chamber has to the Dominator as a way to get past the Mind Block.

Dangers of natural teleportation?
First, hello everyone. I started to encounter more natural teleporters and I wonder if there has been an official word on if natural teleportation (dragons, etc.) suffer from the same dangers as the Superior Teleport spell like appearing inside an object or at a completely different place.
