are you just remembering the image on the first page of vampire kingdoms (not revised) which shows (what looks like) a vampire in clown make-up?

and under H for traveling show types of acts one of the options is clowns but says they can be any occ

I detune anything new to fall into line with the original rules instead, but an OCC book could be interesting just to have them in one place, or a book/page reference number (even though i have those written down myself) with update changes only being listed

I've always run Bio-Systems as a third category of replacements. Bionics, Cybernetics, and Bio Systems. Bio Systems are mainly organic, flesh and blood. Permanently affixed and integrated with existing tissues. Bio-systems heal in place, they share blood and nerves with the host, the artificial bon...

I was hoping (against all reason) that there would be a specific cannon answer with book and page number lol It was a thought that since CWC lists them as being flesh and blood cloned from DNA (in the section of decommissioning borgs) which does not mention any inorganic material, that the tech had...

you're probably better off asking for help on 3D printing forums where you're going to have highest volume of people that do 3D printing. People that play Palladium are a (relatively) small group, of those a much smaller portion use these forums, and it's possible there is little to no overlap with ...

@killer cyborg: RUE also included the change for spellcasters to throw around 1 (low-level) spell per melee action, so they actually didn't fall behind on ROF. but, now it forces spell casters to take a hand to hand skill (if they didn't start with one) to get a viable number of actions to make use...

In practical games terms I suspect one of two basic answers: 1. Hit Points are only contained in the "main body" not limbs (are there any creatures w/locations breakdowns for SDC/HP to compare to) 2. the SDC for the bio-system limb is for the mechanical aspect only, the organic part count...

I've been having an ongoing "debate" about Bio-Systems and looking for a definitive answer since the books are... well you know. They say Bio-Systems are cybernetic (which a few books do say "cybernetic Bio-systems") which are fully mechanical with a living skin coating, and Bio-...

maybe this (and the other one) should be unstickied, since it no longer has the information the title says it does?

Earth is a nightmare hellscape, with unimagined monsters everywhere, nowhere is safe, and you'd better be prepared to kill, to hold on to the chip bag you found in the garbage, that still had a few crumbs in the bottom

Does anyone know off hand which GBs are printed as having the 1000 round capacity? I know the Chromium Guardsman in the Chaos Earth Main Book does. Other than the RUE version in Rifts, none that I know of. I found a reference to the 400 round capacity in FQ (pg83), the most previous reprint before ...

7PSI-Lence Can you please fix the formatting on your last post to properly credit the poster's statements you copied, it makes it much easier to read. As far as I'm concerned the 1000 round payload of the USA-G10 is a typo/misprint. 100 or 1000 rounds, it doesn't change the GB's vulnerabilities. Wh...

[] : quote="ShadowLogan"-1 flyer having to fly into the GB under fire I'd expect to get hit at least once, sustaining heavy damage, 3-4 flyers have much better odds, but since the GB was not designed to be a solitary unit I'd expect NEMA to have enough counter aircraft to deal with it, or ...

I doubt a GB really needs to be (or had been planed to be) in full scale direct combat for that long, for one it has the ranged advantage, meaning enemies need to be willing to rush it's position, under heavy fire that is destroying their heavy armor, a good portion of the enemy forces is going to ...

PSI-Lence

One thing I've seen touched on, about 1000 rounds being a short time of sustained fire, is that it requires them to fire as fast as they can, rather than artiliry or sniper picking off 1 high priority target, then finding another and taking out that target. I doubt a GB really needs to be (or had be...

i found that 6.5 thing somewhere online just recently as at least a base list to go from since it's been helpful but then had to check other books for certain ones (like prowl getting +8% per level instead of 5% i think) is this done? or being worked on still? (i've wrote out the skill lists a few t...

A portable kit makes sense. I always equip my pilots with the skill "General Repair and Maintenance" as it seems really stupid that you can't perform basic repairs and maintenance on your equipment. That way you'd only need a Operator for any major repairs. well there are a lot of people ...

first off of course, if you want to do that in your setting, then do it so not to poke holes in it but... the nutrient paste is not really a crucial aspect of the armor itself, helpful for long periods in it, but not super important and could probably just make a smoothy and fill the container (but ...

depending on lineage could you be looking at it the wrong way? rather than how a quickflex became a master psionc, how would a master psionic look and have the same reaction speeds as a quickflex alien?

I can barely get my guys to remember to level their characters when they do actually ding. While I'm sorry to hear that; I'm glad I'm not the only GM who has that problem. I had a player that refused to check his email or update his character so he spent most of game being two levels lower than the...

power cat.= power category. I am spelling challenged and the word category is a trouble spot so I shorten it. This is in the Heros Unlimited forum.

"Assassination Study" would be best served these days by dropping the WP Concealed, as it effectively bundles two skills as one. I approve of the rest, given that I created a 'desensitization' skill (though for hardening people against the supernatural). Still, I can see this skill as som...

well sure you can make anything into a sniper, since snipers are normally picked from the marksmen of basic ranks any extra training for snipers would be reflected in the occ related skills. (maybe with special skills like control breathing etc for that class only to make them better snipers than so...

i was looking for a thread like this but when i didn't find one i made my own, i don't know HU specific details really so they were made over the years to reflect rifts and some are still works in progress (there was more too but i haven't found them all again yet) and of course some are now replace...

So a medium round shield, Spartan size.

Its a matter of mass & momentum.. The more PS a char has the more momentum the weapon builds up because the mass is moving faster. All the mass is in the handle of the energy melee weapon, not out at the tip on the weapon. so there is no momentum at the cutting edge so it only does the energy d...

no it doesn't, i posted in the rifter section for that, but i was hopping some might have been compiled online too, i looked for player made ones and was unable to find them here too but no doubt there are many i just missed the thread lol

So, I saw a sentence in I believe Aliens Unlimited, referencing Heroes Unlimited stating that Melee Energy weapons don't include a P.S. bonus because it is the energy doing the damage, not the force...

Dont the Index & Adventure books have a list of skills by location? i know i have at least 1 index book, but they are kind of out of date compared to a lot of the skills, like mid/late 90's or something, so anything that came after they'd be no good for, but i've got a good start with the one l...

PSI-Lence

could go with either option, the first i thought too was a "glow" around the natural sword (of course this gives them no range advantage) out the tip of their sword first would give them more range but may make detailed or close in strikes harder (like anything in grappling range or trying...

thanks that's a huge help, i think i do have most of them written down (at least the ones that came out of rifts world and source books and a hand full of rifters) but it gives me something to check against to compare and maybe what other books to get (i noticed going over it last night some of the ...

if they have a base or decently powerful vehicle (and the skills to pilot it) they could be kept pretty safe and still add to the offence ...and then of course never under estimate how devistating a bio weapon can be (something the average samas pilot can't make for sure lol)

And the biggest problem with the 'slow but steady' method is that it makes it so that the GM has to start explaining why the NPCs are not making big stuff all the time.....
