Sorry I made a mistake!

IT,s All world books not set in North America needs a Second part!

Ther 11 World books set in NA and 13 set outside of it.

Look South-America have 2 books,Russia have2 books and Atlantis have 2 books!

China,Africa and Australia will get a Second book this year maybe?

So that makes only 4 Left!

SO tell me what do you want in them?

If Kevin Siembieda das not make them I will do my own!

I'd like to see a remake of Mutants in Orbit just for Rifts, adding the Arkhon fleet remnants, expanded space station brakdown and their defenses, more glitterboy variants and spaceship stats.
The original was good, but it seems way too dated now.

I'm still waiting around for the Coalition State books, the lone star book was awesome and the coalition campaign was cool but I want more basic info. I think palladium should adopt the Shadow Run catalogue style for some of their books, a whole catalogue of PA and Robots would be sweet then the world books could be substantial world info at only 186 pages. But as far as sequels they beat me to the punch with the next two merc books, what is merc town? is it a whole book detailing one town? because that would be tight, palladium needs more premade world info because thats the stuff that is a pain to come up with, a book of pregenerated towns and communities would be sweet - with maps to back it up, in this respect I was really happy with the Canada and Quebec books. NGR was a let down here but it was basically a tech book so thats forgiven because we all want more PA than we do info on the old man down the road.

Completly agree with you mate. Britain really needs o couple of books the size of the Russia ones devoted to it. I'd like to see more info on Ireland, Scotland and London (I reckon a good 20 pages just for fleshing out London.)

Uderseas 2? Definitely :ok:

How about England/ Great Britain 2, preferably with some content to make the first one worth having? Maybe an old foe for Zazshan to deal with, along with more on Scotland and Ireland (that teaser in Rifter # 9 was cruel) :ok:

Canada 2 with info on the Calgary Monster Kingdoms, the horseman of Ixion and hopefully (finally) ......:eek: :eek: :eek:
Lazlo (and more than the passing reference we've been getting since the beginning!)

Hmmm... there wouldn't be a vested interest in your wanting to see more England/Scotland/Ireland info, now would there? :lol:

Great Lakes Worldbook with info on Lazlo, New Lazlo, Ishpeming, Manistique and the lake region.

Coalition Worldbook on Chi-Town, Arkansas and Iron Heart (the redheaded stepchild of the CS).

Rifts Middle East (just bite the bullet and do it. No terrorist is going to bomb your headquarters).

Australia - the book was practically written with sequels in mind.

Japan - even though one could use "satellite" world books, one of the elements of Japan is isolation. While a good world book in and of itself, it could use a lot more development/explanation. Heck, the magic vs tech debates probably become confusing here - New Empire vs tech-based opponents?

Africa - it was written around the Four Horsemen plot plus only scratches the surface of the continent.

Canada - the book creates as many questions as it has answers.

man, not a single outry for more Vampire Kingdoms stuff...

I would have liked to have seen vampires updated/revised in Dark Conversions, just to make them a little more concise and flow a little better. I figured somebody would have been shouting for something more on them, at least in the Yucatan.

I Hope ther will be a Vampire Kingdoms 2 or a Vampire war 4 Issues mini-series.
It can give a UPdate on the Population of each kingdom.

info on warlord Carlos Arroyo.

It will show Ixzotz plan to take down Reid,s Rangers, The Tampico Protectorate and the Muluc kingdom.

Ant other info.

Do you want to see it?

Some more Goodness on Europe would be nice. I also have to agree on Undersea's getting more coverage with the various groups from the first one detailed better. To be honest I've got more than plenty to last me a lifetime of gameing, so whatever they decide to go with is cool with me.

Dinosaur Swamp is on the way courtesy of Todd Yoho.

As far as World Books go, I do think that the British Isles and Ireland need to be given a second and more thorough look.
