That's alright, as long as you have your shield facing that direction I think, it could be workable. I often think, that even if you're passive blocking (covering the main body) with a decent size shield, it would take a called shot to attack and not hit the shield. I prefer this way. My favorite sh...

At least I found out why twitch dropped half way through the game. Looks like WOW internet and cable was down from Saturday night to Sunday night through all of lower Michigan. So hopefully I'll be able to watch the next one live again.

Jerell

If I may make a humble suggestion sir, change "foot note" in the first line to something like 'event.' The Elf-Dwarf war is much, much more than a foot note, more like a major defining event, that shaped the Palladium World as we know it. I'll see if I can read over it again later when I g...

Jerell

Sounds rough. Could be a load of fun though. Better get an axe. I always thought that running an adventure were a large portion of it is about where to dig to find a lost city (probably with treasure) would be fun. Thinking like "Raiders of the Lost Ark." Have a competing group out looking...

For me, I'd like to see more detailing of Wolfen cities, culture, trade/politics and stuff. Wolfen War? That could be left to GMs for now. The good news is that I've picked a couple of different 'locations' for the snapshot pics I've got in the barrel-to-do, and I'm planning on doing at least one in...

I always thought the idea of a Megadungeon was well suited to Palladium, I'd love to see one over a number of Rifters. Back when I GMed PF, I made a 13 level dungeon, run by a Demon Lord as the Boss, located in the mountains that border the LoTD. I remember having everything worked out, including sl...

Thank you in advance I know I am asking a pretty lame question but I am old and learning a new system is not going as smoothly as I wanted it too. Still loving it though. No worries man. I remember having questions like that myself when learning the system. Also took me a little while to get the ha...

I'm totally there.

Greetings and Salutations. The closest I can find is in Book IV: Adventures in the Northern Wilderness on page 19. This takes place after the Elf-Dwarf War (therefore can't be over 10,000 years old, but could easily fall into the Millennium of Purification). This talks about Elves being spiritual l...

I'm trying to come up with an icon concept for the City of Therendil; it's hard to think of a symbolic metaphor for a snobbish ivory tower culture that's failed its sworn duty. My best idea so far has been a sword stuck into a stone; they're useless, but they have the potential to be great again. H...

Yeah, sometimes. But the divine healing and rezing comes in real handy sometimes too.

Didn't they lose? Good point though. No its not in any way grey. It is pretty much the dictionary definition of evil. They are only 'good' if you are exactly like them, and subservient to their needs. Genocidal Dictatorial regimes are pretty hard to call 'good' Of course it's not good. That's doesn...

Noted. Also note, that they were fine with eternally enslaving and binding creatures, including magic user's souls into rune weapons.

Jerell

Well... we could ask the Palladium Fantasy Dwarves about the magic?

SoT may not paint the CS in a good light, but War is War. Once battle is joined both sides do what they must or feel is right, from their point of view (i.e. Sorcerer's Revenge). However, history is history, how they move forward may change. If I may be allowed to use history as an example, the US A...

Personally (and this is just me), ever since I read Thunder Cloud Galaxy, I'm always considering if high concentrations of magic give off Magical Radiation (M-rads), possibly visible to those who can see ley lines or magical energy. Or at least it seems to me sleeping Old Ones could give off M-rads....

Jerell

More on Wolfen, and two books for the Old Kingdoms, and one for Lopan. That's what I want to see from PB above all else. Southwinds will have to tide me over, and what happened to Mysteries of Magic vol. 2?

material then reprinting an entire book.

Yeah-yuh it is! I love official stuff in Rifters!

Jerell

As for the visibility due to depth issue, since ley lines radiate their energy beyond the actual line itself it stands to reason that the visibility (to Practitioners of Magic) may extend beyond the line itself. Remember, the power extends two miles away from the actual line (even if you can't tap ...

Which page says Algor's his dad? Is it possible that Algor cuckolded Brgg (or vice versa) and that's why Od is named Brgg's son per his surname instead of Algorsson? No page does, he was mistaken. Question is: who is Od's mother? Is it Algor's wife Bestilia or whoever Brgg's wife (if he has one) is...

Jerell

Now as for Od his real name is Od'Eanwll Brggson . Od is the son of Brgg. A deity mentioned in Algor's Pantheon, nor the Pantheon of the Northern Gods because he is meant to be forgotten. Booyah! Excellent information. It does not say "The natives think Beastlla is Algors wife" it says in...

Jerell

Awwwww shucks. I haven't even had a chance to abuse them yet...

Jerell

I say, old boy. It says Brgg is Od's father. It's on page 13.

Further more, "The Binding of Brgg" from the Saga of Od the All Father states Brgg as brother of Algor and the father of Od.

Jerell

Avast thar! Algor is Od's Unlce , according to Eoten legend anyways. According to the same legend, Od was born during the Battle of the Gods , that makes him around 90,000 years old . Epim and Belimar are both mentioned in the same time frame. Algor was not married, but his older bother hooked up th...

I know those moments will stick with me longer than any one liners I heard. It was just to hilarious. Thank Od I was there to witness it. I still laugh thinking about it.

I still like bielmic's sliding scale idea best. It just looks playable and paintable, which is what I want. It looks like 15mm is way too big. 10mm would be preferable to 15mm, but still not ideal.

Take a look-

Jerell

I like it.

Jerell

After looking at the sizes on your posted scale, I have to say I firmly believe either your sliding scale or 10mm is absolutely the best option. Have you taken this to the kick starter web page yet? So long as the models still fit the bases, there should be no need for a rules rewrite. 15mm would be...

Jerell

They should've gone the X-wing route with the pre-painted, ready to go minis. I mean they had enough cash probably, these mini-models (which is what they are) are too frikken tiny and even with the slickest paint job aren't that much better than an X-wing fig. Think of all the fun folks could have ...

Jerell

Hendrik, I have to say, that's a good idea, I like it. I would buy one of those for sure!

Back to other shirts, I think their black with white printing works/looks the best.

Jerell

Commancheros and a cats eye would be cool....

Jerell

Bielmic, I think you have a great idea here. I would support this!

The thing is I like the 6mm Macross, I don't like cyclones and Southern Cross mecha at 6mm. That's my real issue, I like the modeling and painting (and occasionally customizing/converting) part of the hobby. I realize I am but one person, however, I am of the opinion an increase in scale for the nex...

Shawn's right in that it is very rare that the PB full time staff visit the forums, especially to browse.

Jerell

You could treat it like the forest of Tanith, or you could make it bigger. 25 times sounds good to me. Beside the map showing the border of the forest from an outside frame of reference would be just fine. GMs (like my PF GM, I'm looking at you Grug) can go crazy as they like once someone gets insid...

Jerell

haha, yeah, it would be like that.

It's been a while, but I seem to remember Darkest Heart being thick forest. That was the one that was kind of a dimensionally warped and bigger on the inside than the land actually covered wasn't it? Not that there's any way I can think of to show that on a map... maybe some mysterious mist surround...

Jerell

I like dimension hoping in Rifts (with environmental suits and sensors n' stuff to check things out), not so big a fan of it in PF.

I'm glad you had a good time Chuck. I know I had an awesome time, I'm still getting over the Open House withdraw, and having major game cravings (feeling like I need to play, just one more adventure... ). I know I stopped and talked with most of the artists (I did miss Madmanmike, which I regret, bu...

Just got a commissioned character piece of art from 'Madman' Mike. This is Zeldariel , my current character in Grug's Palladium Fantasy campaign.

Did you ever end up trying to draw part of Shadowfall?

I was just thinking the other day, we need another Wolfen/Northern Wilderness Supplement... Maybe Shadowfall needs it's own little book or something.

Thank you, I did highly enjoy it.
