Palladium Books® – Weekly Update – April 22, 2021

One game system – every genre – countless worlds – endless adventure

By Kevin Siembieda

Hey everyone. Did you get a little springtime snow? We did. Hey, it happens. Nothing surprises me anymore. First, a week of beautiful weather in the sixties and seventies, and then a week of cold and snow. I hope you are all staying healthy, getting your vaccines, and doing well. All of us have gotten our first shot and many of us get our second vaccine shot next week. I am already looking forward to the Palladium Open House and Gen Con NEXT year, 2022. Heck, I even renewed my passport. How is that for optimism?

BACK IN STOCK: ALL Rifts® and Hammer of the Forge novels, Rifts® Aftermath, Powers Unlimited® 3 (Cat. 523, $18.99), Palladium Fantasy RPG® hardcover (Cat. No. 450HC, $39.99 retail), Heroes Unlimited™ RPG hardcover (Cat. No. 500HC, $39.99 retail), and Beyond the Supernatural™ RPG hardcover (Cat. No. 700HC, $39.99 retail) arrived last week and are available now.

Despite the Printing Crisis I spoke about in the last Update, we remain focused on new book releases. Moreover, Palladium continues to be getting shorter turnaround dates and delays than what can be seen in most of the printing industry – only an extra 1-3 weeks rather than 8-12 weeks! I have already sent Rifts® Ultimate Edition in for reprint and I have been told the next three hardcover core rule books: Rifts® Game Master Guide Hardcover (Cat. No. 845HC, $39.99 retail), Rifts® Book of Magic Hardcover (Cat. No. 848HC, $39.99 retail), and Rifts® Adventure Guide Hardcover (Cat. No. 849HC, $36.99 retail) are “scheduled to ship” from the printer next Thursday or Friday, just an extra two weeks longer than the original date given to us.

The Rifts® 30th Anniversary Commemorative hardcover has moved along a bit more slowly than I would like, but it is awesome. It is a special book so Wayne has been taking extra time and care with the gathering and cleaning of artwork and other materials going into to the book. It is a project close to our hearts and we have been adding fun little tidbits and details like a new, expanded table of contents, accurate dates of release for the 160+ Rifts titles depicted in the 12 page color spread, plus a number of what we hope are nice touches you will enjoy. Like what? Like never before seen concept sketches and pencil art, some with the artists’ original notes, a few never before seen color pieces, and other fun items we think you will enjoy. This is still slated for a mid-May release.

Rifts® CS Manhunters. I had a great weekend writing, before hitting a bit of a snag, but it is coming along well too and nearing completion. Finally!

All of these unlikely heroes stand against supernatural evil in a world of disbelievers who brand them as practitioners of fringe science or lunatics.

This book is the result of requests from fans. It was supposed to be one of our 2020 surprises. Then the Covid pandemic struck, our world went sideways, and for a while we shelved it.

UPDATE: Rifts^® CS Manhunters – May release

This fun book will please a lot of people. Heck, it is worth it for the 50 NEW psionic abilities and CS Manhunter O.C.C.s alone. Each Manhunter is an intriguing player character or dangerous NPC assassin bounty hunter. Rifts® CS Manhunters also reveals secrets about Dog Boys and Kill Hounds, other CS psychics, Psi-Ops, and the role many play in the Minion War™, as well as revisiting the Seven Dangers Prophecy (first introduced in Rifts® Sourcebook 2: The Mechanoids®), some fun gadgets and implants, and more. As good as CS Manhunters was, I had been struggling with aspects of it. When I finally made a breakthrough on that front everything fell into place and it is all coming together beautifully. Source material that should give both players and Game Masters plenty to work with. All of it building toward something epic.

As for the question of who watches the watchmen? (Meaning the Coalition military and its elite.) The answer is, the CS Manhunters. A secret division under the auspices of Psi-Battalion. Super-patriots, spies and assassins all rolled into one. Men and women who not only hunt the most dangerous spies, fugitives, and enemies of the Coalition States, but also protect the Emperor and hunt down traitors within the Coalition States. An elite force of expert manhunters and cold-blooded killing machines who use psionic abilities as part of their arsenal, follow orders without question, and kill without hesitation.

• New Coalition Psychic O.C.C.s.
• 50+ new psionic abilities and revisits of some favorites.
• CS Manhunter Divner and Precog.
• CS Manhunter Psi-Interrogator and Psi-Enforcer.
• CS Manhunter Bursters and Zappers.
• CS Manhunter Psi-Healers and CS Slayers.
• CS Manhunter Killhound and Dog Boy O.C.C.s.
• CS Manhunter Mind Melters, the deadliest of them all.
• CS Manhunter squads and special operations.
• Insight about Coalition psychics and secretive Psi-Ops.
• The impact of the demon plagues unleashed by the Minion War.
• Player Characters, NPCS, background info, adventure ideas, and more.
• 96-128 pages – $17.99 retail – Cat. No. 894 – In production and nearing completion.

UPDATE: Creature Feature^™, a Beyond the Supernatural^™ sourcebook

This is going to be another fun adventure sourcebook. The manuscript will go into editing and rewrites as soon as I finish CS Manhunters and most of the artwork is done. Though I may add a few illustrations and already have artists lined up. Creature Feature™ builds on material that has appeared in various issues of The Rifter® but there is a ton of new material and information useful to both Game Masters and players.

• A gallery of supernatural creatures. Some new. Some familiar, updated and expanded. All terrifying.

• Written by Steven Dawes, Kevin Siembieda, and others.
• Art by Steven Cummings, Nick Bradshaw and others.
• 160-192 pages – $22.99 or $26.99 depending on final size – Cat. No. 704.

UPDATE: Rifts^® Titan Robotics^™

Here it is, the reveal of the new cover. I hope you like it. I love that it presents the iconic Titan Robotics Combat Robot with a new big gun that hints at what else awaits you inside the book. I also enjoy the combat scene, smoke, and haze of war. Like Northern Gun and the Manistique Imperium, Titan Robotics sells freely to adventurers, mercenaries, and anyone who has the cash. Hence, the owners of these big ‘bots clashing with Coalition Forces.

This is why I call Rifts® Titan Robotics™ a high-tech toy box filled with many new types of Titan Robotics power armors, giant robots, vehicles, weapons, and gear. Some are big bruisers while others are small and sleek. As fun as these new tech toys are, Rifts® Titan Robotics™ delves into the company’s many secrets, including ARCHIE-3’s plans and program to monitor and manipulate the outside world. Learn about Archie’s androids that run Titan Robotics and his current schemes and plans for the future. All of which provides fodder for adventure.

• New Giant Robots.
• New Power Armor, equipment and accessories.
• 30+ power armors and robots, plus other equipment.
• New weapons, gear and vehicles.
• Titan Robotics Corporation and structure.

UPDATE: Rifts^® Bestiary^™ Volume Two

The second big, “monster book” reference for Rifts® of what we anticipate to be three volumes in the series, more if we decide to make ghosts, spirits and Entities and/or Creatures of Magic part of the Bestiary series. Much like Volume One, Rifts® Bestiary™ Volume Two collects 70-100 monsters and animals plus 12-24 new beasts found across Rifts North America. The anticipated page count is 224-256 pages.

All volumes of the Rifts® Bestiary™ series are a great resource for players and Game Masters alike. Each description is updated, expanded, and highly detailed to present players with exotic and alien creatures as pets, guardians and riding animals, as well as slobbering monsters to battle and fierce beasts for Game Masters to throw at their players. Designed to offer adventure ideas, offers notes on young, adult, male and female creatures, and all provide plenty of ways to enhance your characters and spice up adventures. Each is accompanied by a map that shows at a glance where the beast can be encountered. Ah, but in the presence of Rifts and magic means any of the creatures may appear anywhere in the world, so be on your toes.

• Monsters and animals of Rifts North America organized into big, easy to use sourcebooks.
• Updated and expanded descriptions and information for each existing monster.

Imagine a near perfect world of advanced technology 100 years in the future. Then imagine that world crashing down overnight in an apocalyptic upheaval not seen since the formation of the planet. A Great Cataclysm caused by the explosive return of magic. Now fast forward 300 years into the future where magic, dragons, and mythic gods coexist with cyborgs, giant robots and super-science rediscovered from humanity's Golden Age as humans rise from a lengthy Dark Age.

Palladium Collectibles, Negatives, Artwork, other Collectibles and Toys are always available in Kevin’s Online Toy & Collectibles eBay Store along with other good things

My eBay store is one of the few places where you can find original artwork by Charles "Chuck" Walton, Kevin Long, and others, as well as one-of-a-kind negatives from classic Rifts® and other Palladium RPG books (they look awesome framed!), rare Palladium collector hardcovers, signed books, other Palladium memorabilia, toys from my personal collection and other collectibles. Check every couple of weeks because we often post new stuff or offer a new sale. There is a sale on negatives starting today, in fact.

Other one-of-a-kind original artwork available by me (Kevin Siembieda), Kevin Long, Charles Walton II (money goes to the artist), other artists, as well as collectible negatives, prints, limited edition hardcovers, proofreader copies, out of print items, Star Wars toys, Marvel toys and many other toys and collectibles from my personal collection. Alex and I will keep adding items as our busy schedules allow, but we have a lot of fun collectibles available now and coming soon. Hundreds of items. Take a look every weekend for new additions.

Available now: One-of-a-kind book negatives. Negatives were very popular items at the Palladium Open House and people went crazy over them at Gen Con – including actor Joe Manganiello who scooped up a pile of TMNT negatives, while Palladium's own Mark Oberle, Carmen Bellaire, Brandon Aten and a whole lot of Palladium gamers went for negatives from Rifts® New West, Lone Star and Free Quebec. Fun.

Negatives are unique and attractive, one-of-a-kind (on rare occasions two-of-a-kind if a page was replaced or a second edition was made) works of art that resemble woodcut art and are very dynamic conversation pieces. Before digital printing, pages of a book were laid out by hand on a board, and each page was photographed. The plastic film negatives were then "ganged" on a massive sheet of Mylar 16 pages per big sheet, and the printing plates were made from the negatives – everything white, printing black.

When our printer, McNaughton and Gunn, went completely digital, they asked if Palladium Books wanted the negs, otherwise they would be destroyed. Regrettably, I let a few dozen be destroyed, but the negatives of many books were sent to Palladium. They have sat in our warehouse for years until I started to offer them for sale. I have also started signing the negatives in silver and each comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. Each negative comes on a white board inside a plastic magazine bag and looks fabulous framed! Fits in an 8x10 inch matt opening in a frame (each neg is roughly 8½ x 11 inches).

Closing Thoughts – Don’t let the darkness close in on you

A lot of folks are talking like the pandemic is over. I wish.

Like the rest of you, the resumption of some level of normalcy cannot come soon enough for my taste. However, I know a number of people who are feeling sad, tired, and worn out. I hear those comments a lot and I get it. Despite always trying to be uplifting in these Weekly Updates, I have been on a little bit of an emotional roller coaster myself. Hey, the past year has been rough on everyone. Many of us have lost people we care about or have watched people lose their jobs or deal with other challenges. I have had to make a number of tough decisions.

Change is hard for most people. Add a sense of loss, mounting frustration, and isolation into the mix, and this has been no picnic. And it is why you may be feeling blue even though the weather is improving and there is all kinds of talk about life getting back to normal. Maybe life is heading back to normal, but we still need time to process everything we have gone through before we may again feel “normal” ourselves. That’s okay. These things take time. Cut yourself some slack and try to enjoy the people and little things that bring you joy and moments of peace and satisfaction.

I am right there with you. I am a positive person by nature and I believe in people and goodness and hard work. I have high hopes on so many fronts, but sometimes I just feel ... blah. I think it is why CS Manhunters has been taking longer than it should. Certainly longer than I would like. Some days I am on fire writing. Other days I am struggling to find the right words or forced to deal with other matters when I would rather be writing. There have been many moments when I feel super-positive and happy and know I am spinning pure magic for you. There have also been moments when I feel like crying or just worn out and dragging. All those feelings are okay, as long as you are able to pause, catch your breath, regain your footing, and find your way back to some measure of peace and joy.

I hope you are doing as best you can dealing with our topsy-turvy world. Like me, I hope you have more good days than bad, and that you have friends or family you can turn to on those bad days. Hang tough. It will get better. It is getting better.

It is easy to beat yourself up and take the world on your shoulders. Please, try not to do that. I recently found myself in the trap of wanting to uplift your spirits so badly with awesome new releases, that I would get mad at myself every time I had a bad day or a project suffered a delay for any reason. Often due to things out of our reach. My decision to focus on the things I have direct control over has been an immense help, but I was still beating myself up. I would think, “Yeah, this is good work. Maybe even great, but is that all you’ve gotten done today?! Why is it taking so long? People are counting on you. You are letting them down.”

I got angry at a printer for wasting my and Wayne’s time when their bogus printing quote suddenly shot up an extra $4 a book! I yelled at our hardcover printer for changing the ship dates on our many hardcovers, even though I knew they were putting forth their best effort. There have been a few times that I have been short with people who don’t deserve it because something misfired or required more work and time to do it right. Everything was starting to feel like an obstacle or a challenge. Worse, I was letting every delay or complication pummel me like a kick to my stomach.

Fortunately, I was reminded of a bit of wisdom and truth from my mother. “If you give a task your all, and you are truly doing your best, do not be so hard on yourself. That is all you can ask of anyone.”

So I hope we are not disappointing you. I am happy to report the books coming your way will make you smile and your imaginations soar. We have so many plans for great things and we are working to put many more in place.

More importantly, I hope you are wiser than me and not beating yourself up over things you have little or no control over. It is what it is, take it in stride. Be the best you can be. Do the best that you can, and take a moment to catch your breath and be kind to yourself. (And those around you.) We are getting through all of this and life is good. I have your backs, just like I know you have mine. We’ve got this, so smile.

Please enjoy the sale of books and PDFs and the beautiful hardcovers of your favorite RPGs. Three more are coming in a week or so. The Rifts® 30th Commemorative and Rifts® 30th Gold, a few weeks after that. Not to mention Rifts® CS Manhunters, Bestiary 2, BTS Creature Feature, and a whole lot of other books that will make your imaginations sing and your hearts flutter. At least I hope so. Have a nice weekend and hang tough.
