Palladium Books® – Weekly Update – November 10, 2022

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

By Kevin Siembieda

I hope you are all doing well out there. There is a heck of a lot going on here at Palladium Books. In addition to the Surprise Package offer shipping and Creature Feature off to the printer, the Rifts® Titan Robotics™ Kickstarter launched at 3:30 PM Eastern time yesterday. We hit our goal in almost exactly 5 hours and support continues at a steady pace. That’s very exciting because word is just starting to spread today and over the weekend by pals like artist Steven Cummings, podcasters, and individuals like you. The support is greatly appreciated.

UPDATE: The Rifts® Titan Robotics™ Kickstarter is live and a continuing success. Titan Robotics™ is a great book and the additional Kickstarter items are pretty sweet too. There is the Titan Robotics™ PDF, the softcover book, two different hardcovers, Savage Worlds Conversion PDF, the Rifts® Cyberworks Poker Deck and the Cyberworks™ Collection hardcovers! The Cyberworks Collection includes Rifts® Sourcebook One, Sourcebook Two: The Mechanoids® and Shemarrian Nation™, plus a little extra all rolled into one, big, foil collector’s edition (signed and the foil hardcover is available only for this Kickstarter campaign, plus 50 or so copies for Palladium staff and insiders). An alternative color cover version of the Cyberworks™ Collection hardcover is also available and it will be offered to the public after our backers receive all their Kickstarter items. There are other cool items too.

This is Sean Owen Roberson’s baby. He has experience doing Kickstarters, he put this all together, is pumped up about it, and is personally overseeing the Kickstarter campaign. Here’s what he has to say on the subject:

“Hi, Palladium fans! For those of you still getting to know me, I'm Kevin’s new Creative Director and Business Partner. I’m super excited to be working with Kevin to carry the Palladium legacy forward into a new generation.

“I'd like to invite you to check out the link to the new Rifts® Titan Robotics™ Kickstarter, and I hope you enjoy the video trailer.

“Some people are curious why I'm running a crowdfunding campaign for Titan Robotics™, and the answer is largely two-fold:

“First, every book I've worked with Pinnacle Entertainment on has had a Kickstarter, and I love how the platform helps spread the word and allows me to interact directly with fans to make a better product.

“Second, I want to do a crowdfunding project for Rifts® Titan Robotics™ to delay price increases and get you all the coolest swag we can provide. Many tabletop companies have had to increase prices dramatically over the past two years because of supply chain disruptions and inflation, and we want Palladium Books to avoid that as long as possible. You may be wondering, how does crowdfunding make a book cheaper? Well, the more books you print at once, the cheaper each book costs to make – often much cheaper as economies of scale multiply. Similarly, when we have accurate print run numbers before we order the books, it makes limited edition foil covers and other popular extras a lot easier to bring to print at a reasonable price. So jump in, get all the limited edition goodies, super low prices on PDFs, and other special backer-only options, and help us spread the word to make this thing as big as possible!

“I hope that helps you understand our core goals for the project. To everyone who supports this new generation of Palladium products and me as a business partner, creative director, art director, writer, and designer, I have only immense gratitude and respect. And you are helping Palladium move forward to do even bigger and grander things in the future.

- Cheers, Sean Owen Roberson

UPDATE: Creature Feature sourcebook for Beyond the Supernatural™ – ships November 23 (that’s the date from our printer). Yes, you can ask for it in the Christmas Surprise Package but not before November 23. (Please do not ask for Titan Robotics™ as it will not be available for Surprise Packages). Yes, Creature Feature it is at the printer. Yes, this book is going to be a crowd pleaser. Though retired, Julius Rosenstein continues to do freelance proofreading for Palladium. He’s also an excellent barometer of our fan base, so I was thrilled by his response when I asked him what he thought of the book. “It’s great! Each monster is unique and offers a very different type of encounter. Then I got to the rules clarifications and gaming section, wow, it’s excellent. And the adventure at the end of the book is a page turner! I couldn’t put it down!”

Nice. It’s always rewarding to hear we hit the mark. As you all know, Steve Dawes put his heart into this book and so did I, putting in lot of time polishing and doing rewrites, expansions, and updates, because I want this book to sing. I also did the border artwork and a few illustrations of monsters. I couldn’t help it, I love BTS so much it just called to me and I really enjoyed doing the art. I’m happy to say, I have not lost my touch doing artwork. In fact, Sean loved the art so much he wants me to do at least one or two pieces of art every book. No promises, but we’ll see. I can’t wait till the book is in your hands. See the complete description for it below. Titan Robotics™ too. I will try to have that FREE Creature Feature Sneak Preview for DriveThruRPG next week.

Creature Feature Pre-Order Note: If you had placed a pre-order for Creature Feature before last week, your credit card had not been charged and you will need to place your actual order for it now. Kathy should be sending notices about this to those of you who placed pre-orders months ago. You will love this book.

COMING: “Original” Beyond the Supernatural™ RPG Bonus Foil Hardcover (1st Edition rules and monsters). Due to popular demand from our fans, we have a deluxe, blood red foil hardcover also at the printer. This is a reprint of the 1st Edition rule book, plus an outstanding adventure from The Rifter® as bonus material. As soon as we have a ship date from our printer for it we will let you know. Hardcovers can take a while (6-12 weeks), so we are not even taking orders until we have a strong idea for the delivery date. We’re hoping it will be available in time for Christmas. Red foil on a black faux leatherette. 280+ pages, $55.00 retail – Cat. No. 699HC – release date to come (mid-December tentative and hopeful).

UPDATE: Rifts® Bestiary Volume Two. I am back to working on this bad boy, though between the Kickstarter prep, Surprise Packages, and other business matters, I have not been able to do too much yet, but I will. And soon. This will be another great book.

UPDATE: Christmas Surprise Packages – effectively puts everything on sale and is an annual tradition that fans around the world adore. We are happy to do them as our way of showing you our appreciation and saying thank you for your support. Every Update we include Surprise Package comments from fans like you after my Closing Thoughts. I think you may find this week’s comments interesting and uplifting.

That feels like enough excitement for this Update. Enjoy the Titan Robotics Kickstarter, don’t forget about Creature Feature in all the excitement, and keep those Surprise Package orders rolling in.

At the Printer – Creature Feature^™, a Beyond the Supernatural^™ Sourcebook – ships November 23

Beyond the Supernatural™ is set in our modern world seen through the lens of mystery and the supernatural. A lens that lets us see clearly the “things” – the creatures and powers – that science and our rational minds tell us are not real. It is a world of shadows and the uncanny where a monster may really be hiding under your bed or stalking the alley. Creatures that lurk in dark corners and prey upon the unsuspecting, the innocent, and the wicked.

Creature Feature is a journey into just a few of those dark corners. Places where strange and terrible creatures wait, and bold heroes and psychic investigators face their fears and fight against the gathering darkness.

• 15 supernatural creatures described in depth. Some are new. Some were pulled from the pages of The Rifter® but updated and expanded (many completely rewritten). All of them are dynamic, scary, and offer different horror adventure experiences.
• Each creature offers adventure hooks and ideas for more.
• The art of making and running monsters.
• Creature encounter table and tips on making unique creatures.
• Player paranormal investigator background table.
• Game Master source material and tips for running modern horror.
• More world setting and monster hunting lore.
• Rules clarifications and errata.
• A full adventure and numerous adventure suggestions.
• Paranormal encounter ideas, tips, advice, NPCs, and more.
• Written by Steven Dawes, Kevin Siembieda, and others.
• Art by Steven Cummings, Nick Bradshaw, and others.
• 192 pages – $26.99 retail – Cat. No. 704 – ships November 23.

Christmas Surprise Package Offer – now shipping – 6 weeks till Christmas

Beat the holiday rush and order yours today. Shipping now. And God knows this year has been so crazy, we need something fun like the Christmas Surprise Package to bring a little joy and laughter into our lives. With so many people suffering from rising prices, money issues, frustration, and post-Covid-19 related doldrums, they need to escape into realms of role-playing adventure. Not to mention the huge savings and fun autographs available via these Christmas Surprise Packages. Start sending those orders in, we’re ready for you.

What is a Christmas Surprise Package?

A smile and a hug that comes in a box filled with signed game books from available Palladium staff and freelancers. It’s a way for you to get physical books (and autographs if you want them) for PDF prices! $95-$105+ worth of Palladium products for only $58 (plus shipping)! That can nab you four or more items when these days one core rule book can cost you that alone.

These Christmas Surprise Packages are our way of saying thank you for your support and showing you our love and appreciation. It’s a surprise because you never know exactly what you’re going to get or who will sign your books, because we pick from your Wish List and may surprise you with stuff you are not expecting. Extra items may include other RPGs, sourcebooks, issues of the Rifter®, novels, miniatures, prints, art books, greeting cards, T-shirts, negatives, and other items. Some books may be slightly damaged (scuffs, scratches, dings, a bent or crunched corner, etc.) so we can send you more.

No other RPG company on the planet has an offer like this. Truly the best deal in gaming, the Palladium 25th Annual Christmas Surprise Package gets you $95-$105, sometimes MORE, worth of product for ONLY $58 (plus shipping), as gifts for others or for yourself. That’s like getting physical books at PDF prices, plus autographs if you want ‘em.

Christmas Surprise Packages are not just for Christmas. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or the Winter Solstice, or you are looking for that special gift for a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or any special occasion that falls between now and the end of the year, a Surprise Package may be the ideal way to go. You get a ton of stuff on the cheap, you can get a bunch of autographs (if you want ‘em), and you look like you spent a fortune.

This is also a great way to try that game setting you’ve wondered about – Splicers®, Dead Reign®, Chaos Earth®, Palladium Fantasy®, Nightbane®, Mechanoid Invasion®, Rifts®, After the Bomb®, etc. – or to get something for your favorite Game Master. Or perhaps, to get your player group to consider a new game or setting.

Your “Wish List” is vital – the Palladium Surprise Packages are designed to simulate the joy and surprise of the Christmas Season of Giving. To do this, you submit a list of 10-15 Palladium products (or more) FOR EACH Surprise Package you order. This list of 10-15 items for EACH Grab Bag is critical, because you will not know which items we will select to send you. That makes it just like a Christmas gift because it’s a surprise. Plus, Santa Kevin, who personally hand-picks every item for every Grab Bag, may toss in something extra like a limited edition print, or a negative or similar collector’s item, or an issue of The Rifter®, or something else he thinks you’ll enjoy.

Autographed books. For those of you who want them (which are most people), available members of the Palladium staff, and any freelancers we can lasso at the time, are happy to autograph each and every book in your Surprise Package. This is the only way many fans across the country and overseas can ever get signed books.

Send us your brief comments. There is a special form and format to fill out for Christmas Surprise Packages, including a place where you can offer your brief comments, suggestions, greetings and salutations.

First-timers are always nervous until they see the great value in their first Surprise Package. A typical Grab Bag has $100+ worth of product. Yes, often more for only $58 plus shipping. Many people order 2-3. Some order 4-6, and some maniacs order even more! It makes sense, because it is a great way to fill holes in your own collection, treat yourself, get autographs, try new games and settings, rebuild your collection, replace worn out books, and get your gaming pals gifts. PLEASE spread the word about this great offer.

To those of you outside the USA, the X-Mas Surprise Package is a way to get books and circumvent the damn high cost of shipping from the United States, since you are getting $95-105 (often more) worth of product and only paying $58 plus shipping. Shipping via Priority Mail International (required for packages weighing more than four pounds) to most locations in Europe, Canada and many other countries is around $70-80 US dollars. HOWEVER, because the cost of the product is so low, that’s the equivalent of paying retail for the products and only $2-$30 for shipping. A very good deal. Plus you get autographs if you want them! X-Mas Surprise Packages are the way to go for those of you outside the USA. Please take advantage of it to get all those products you’ve wished you could get except the shipping was too prohibitive. We feel your pain. Game on!

Please spread the word. The Christmas Surprise Package is only publicized by word of mouth, on Palladium's website, and social media, so please tell everyone you know. Buy one for every gamer you know. They make astonishing gifts for every occasion.

NEW! The Palladium Book of European Castles – now shipping. It is the last book in the weapon series to be brought back to print due to fan requests.

Compiled by Matthew Balent. Gorgeous new cover painting by Scott Johnson – 48 pages – $10.99 – Cat. No. 410.

Rifts^® Bestiary^™ Volume Two – Coming

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, plus 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 the presence of Rifts and magic means any of the creatures may appear anywhere in the world, so be on your toes.

- After the Bomb® RPG and sourcebooks.

I think you will enjoy it, and it is a fun piece of history. ALL proceeds go directly to the Wujcik estate and probably toward the education of Erick’s beloved grandchild, Tristan. As most of you know, Erick would go on to write the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness RPG, Ninjas & Superspies RPG, Amber Diceless, and contribute to a number of other RPGs and sourcebooks.

And more to come in the weeks ahead.

Yeah, I used to be a crazy toy and art collector. Alex and I will try to post new items on a regular basis, so check in every few weeks to see what’s new.

Other one-of-a-kind original artwork available by me (Kevin Siembieda), Kevin Long, Charles Walton II and 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.

Negatives are unique and attractive, one-of-a-kind (on rare occasions two-of-a-kind if a page or section of pages were 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 was going to discard them, Palladium acquired many (not all) of the old negatives. I am only keeping a few books for myself and make majority of the rest available to you. I sign each negative in silver and each comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. The 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). But don’t miss the other collectibles as well.

NEW! Cozy Caverns Mysteries – Beyond the Supernatural RPG adventure podcast from the whiz kids at www.realplaygamespod.com – now through the end of the year

Here are the descriptions and schedule for the Cozy Caverns Mysteries podcast inspired by Beyond the Supernatural, 2nd Edition.

- Cozy Caverns Mysteries Chapter 1 – Welcome to Cozy Caverns – Jasmine “Jazz” D’Amore and Jordan “Dani” D’Amore are two sisters in their early thirties struggling to find love, job fulfillment, and money to pay the bills on time. When the loss of an estranged family member changes their circumstances, the sisters change their location, and discover the quirky, mysterious town of Cozy Caverns, Arizona and its inhabitants. All is not as it seems.

- Cozy Caverns Mysteries Chapter 2 – Supporting Local Businesses – Following Dani’s weird dream from the night before and Jazz’s unusually invigorating morning run, the D’Amore sisters hit the town of Cozy Caverns for a day of shopping and relaxation! After narrowly avoiding one hunky close encounter and picking up some reading material, the gals do lunch and then hit the library. There Dani’s jaw hits the floor and Jazz’s personal self-restraint is pushed to its limits. The excitement dies down a little bit around nighttime, but an explosive late-night confession throws everything the sisters know, or thought they knew, into chaos.

- Cozy Caverns Mysteries Chapter 3 – Rough Night – Dani has a another dream that leads to unexpected revelations and ramifications, while Jazz’s jog leads to a terrifying situation! There aren’t any romantic parts in this one and you’re not meeting any hunks, we can assure you of that! Suspicious behavior abounds regarding people in authority, and secrets slowly begin to reveal themselves. At least you can count on Milena’s cooking over at the Prickly Pear!

- Cozy Caverns Mysteries Chapter 4 – Deep Dives and Love Lives – It’s an incredibly full day for the D’Amore sisters during the annual Cactus Festival! Dani’s experiences prompt Jazz to have the both of them do more digging into the weirdness that seems to surround Cozy Caverns. The two uncover vital information.

- New! September 9 – Cozy Caverns Mysteries Chapter 5 – D. Frisbee and the Curious Case in the Caves – The D'Amore sisters are certainly keeping busy on their trip! A meeting with D. Frisbee reveals a whole glut of information about some of the stranger goings-on that have taken place within bucolic Cozy Caverns. Meanwhile, a mine tour with ol' Tom goes south fast. It happens when Dani discovers something she really wishes she hadn't in the cool caverns below the little town with the most warmth!

- New! September 23 – Cozy Caverns Mysteries Chapter 6 – A Bumpy Pre-Date Afternoon – With their dates fast approaching, Jazz and Dani are digging up as much information as possible, but will a freak-out underground spell disaster for a promising evening? Or will the D'Amore sisters take their lumps as they come and try to make the best out of a sticky situation?

- New! October 7 – Cozy Caverns Mysteries Chapter 7 – The Only Good Part was the Sushi – One sister's date goes badly, but it's fun to watch that train wreck happen in real time. The other's goes well, maybe too well. Things get really dramatic after the dates, to the point where the sisters find themselves repeatedly menaced by a shadowy figure that's been stalking their trail! Don't miss the bone-crushing excitement!

- New! October 21 – Cozy Caverns Mysteries Chapter 8 – The Reek of Burnt Motor Oil – A sudden manifestation of potent supernatural abilities puts the sisters back on the right foot, at least for the time being. The two join forces to attack the ancient alien foe who has been stalking them throughout the caverns. They have put almost all of the pieces of the puzzle together, but now they need something even more important than the truth: A plan!

- New! November 4 – Cozy Caverns Mysteries Chapter 9 Finale – Ghost Bashers – This one is for all the marbles! The sisters gather as much equipment as they can and head out to the old mine shaft for their confrontation with their evil spectral enemy! Dark things are revealed. Will the D'Amore sisters get devoured by the darkness beneath the Earth, or will they drag the vileness monster into the light? Don't miss the explosive finale!

Coming ...

- November 18 – Cozy Caverns Mysteries “Bonus” Episode – Cozy After Dark – This is the one where we kick back, stop worrying so much about what's happening in the adventure (since it's over!) and talk about how we created the characters, the setting, adapting an adventure published in 1990 to a 2022 context, cultural issues in portrayal that specifically involve the US Southwest, and give a bunch of information about what we were thinking and feeling as the adventure was going on.

More to come. You can expect a new Heroes Unlimited Christmas podcast special in December, and more episodes of their popular After the Bomb®: Purrsuit of Knowledge™ (mutant animals) series in 2023, as well as a Road Hogs mini-adventure, and could there be a Palladium Fantasy podcast coming? I think there might. We are happy to see more gamers finding these fun podcasts based on Palladium RPG worlds almost as much as we love seeing Palladium fans getting creative and having fun. Spread the word and enjoy.

Closing Thoughts – Kickstarter & Titan Robotics^™

Welcome to the new age of Palladium Books. We told you we would be making changes and launching new projects, new structures, new methods, and new products as we work to rebuild and strengthen Palladium Books for the future.

Returning to Kickstarter is only one small step in that direction. We are putting our past triumphs and failures behind us and are laser focused on Palladium’s future. That encompasses a lot that we are not able to talk about, but if you are thinking of something you believe we should be doing, we are probably planning on doing it. How’s that for cryptic? All of these things, small and large (and some of our plans are very large), take time, careful planning and execution, and making smart moves with the right people, and we are in the process of doing all of that.

Some of our small, immediate steps are to give you many of the books you have been waiting for. Titan Robotics™ is one of them. Rifts® Bestiary Volume Two is another. So are Land of the Damned 3: The Bleakness (Fantasy), Rifts® Antarctica (mind blowing), Rifts® Coalition Arsenal (which we have been quietly commissioning artwork for behind the scenes), Chaos Earth® First Responders and Psychic Scream, Rifts® Disavowed™, and a number of Beyond the Supernatural and Fantasy titles. None of them are forgotten and by hook or by crook, we are going to get these and others to you as soon as we can. And that’s just some of the titles. We have so much more coming your way.

Some are little things like the re-release of a bonus edition of the Original Beyond the Supernatural RPG, 1st Edition. Many of you have been requesting it for some time now. We thought it would be nice timing to have it release shortly after the new Creature Feature sourcebook for BTS-2. As I have mentioned before, Creature Feature was supposed to be a quick, simple release. A fun little project to give BTS fans something to enjoy. Fast and simple didn’t happen. But you know what? Creature Feature is epic and fun and a taste of things to come for BTS. As I have stated, we want every title released to brim with Wow Factor and push the envelope as we build to bigger and better ... well, everything.

Your support of the Titan Robotics™ Kickstarter, Christmas Surprise Package offer, and other purchases help us move ever closer to our goals of not just giving you more of the RPG material you love, but to keep Palladium Books going for another generation or two, even after I’m gone. So thank you for your love and support.

When it comes to Sean and the launch of the Kickstarter, he has been like a little kid anxiously awaiting Christmas morning. He put his heart and soul into the design and writing of the sourcebook (along with Matthew Clements) and in the Kickstarter itself. He worked hard to keep it simple and clean and fun. He experimented and had fun with the video presentation, finally getting it to where he wanted it after the 4th or 5th version. Every word and image you see on the Kickstarter page is Sean. He also created the poker deck, and he jumped at my idea for the Cyberworks Collection which, honest to God, came to me in a dream. We think he has done a great job. And before I forget, we want to thank the good folks at Kickstarter for their help and support.

Enjoy the Titan Robotics™ Kickstarter and all its goodies, keep the Palladium Christmas Surprise Package orders rolling in, order your copy of BTS Creature Feature, I promise it’s great, and don’t let trolls, politics, and the state of the world get you down. Stay positive and let RPG fun reign.

– Kevin Siembieda, Publisher, Writer, Friend, & Surrogate Santa Claus

Surprise Package comments from fans like you

Every year there is a section where our Surprise Package customers can offer comments and suggestions with their order. We do so because we want to know what you think, and what you want, and we appreciate your suggestions and insights. The idea to do hardcover editions of core books came from fan comments in the Grab Bags.

Every year, in acknowledgment of our fans, and because they are fun to read, we offer a sampling of these comments in the Weekly Updates. Our heartfelt thanks to all of you who have stuck with Palladium through thick and thin and now these new strange times. Please use our games to find escape from the pandemic and other worries. Use them to bring a little joy, laughter, and adventure to the holiday season.

I want you to know that your comments and support mean the world to all of us. Everyone at Palladium enjoys reading your brief comments and they always brighten our day. Thank you for making us smile and feel useful. As always, I have tried to write a short response [in brackets] to each comment. Happy holidays.

J.W. in Verona, Wisconsin, writes: I want to get a Rifts® multiversal campaign going. Really looking forward to Creature Feature. Any other BTS plans? Still hopeful for a UWW sourcebook. Keep up the great work.

[Yes, there are more BTS plans, J.W., and you will love Creature Feature. As for UWW, nothing planned at the moment, but EVERYTHING is on the table as we move forward. – Kevin]

M.S. in Sweden writes in a Help Desk Ticket: I just want to thank you for the X-Mas Surprise Package! It was very expensive to get ($82.50 in shipping), but so worth it. The coffee mug means the world to me, since it is almost impossible to get in Sweden. The books I got were amazing. The autographs filled me with happiness! I will 100% get me one of these [Surprise Packages] every Christmas. Thanks again for making me so happy and I hope you will continue with spreading this happiness for several more decades.

[That’s the plan, M.S.! It is truly a wonderful honor to be able to bring such joy to Palladium gamers around the world with our Surprise Packages. Thank you for letting us know how much it means to you and all your kind words. It was smart of you to indicate in the comment section of your order that the coffee mug was your most desired item in the Wish List. It scares us when we ship a fragile coffee mug so far away, so we are as thrilled as you that it arrived to you unbroken. Lol. That’s the effort of our warehouse goddess, Crystal. Merry Christmas, M.S., and many more. – Kevin]

N.C. in Green Island, New York, writes: Favorites Rifts®. In these tough times I appreciate you guys still doing this annual Surprise Package offer.

[We’ve got your back, N.C. We hope everyone takes advantage of the fun and value of these awesome Grab Bags. Happy holidays. – Kevin]

R.V. in Petrolia, Ontario, Canada, writes: Have played Palladium’s games since the 80s and recently come back since seeing the Savage Worlds Rifts®. Most of my collection has disappeared over the years and I’m enjoying getting back into Palladium again. Thanks for the great books and memories over the years.

[Welcome back, R.V., it’s a great time to be a Palladium fan. Enjoy and keep your imagination burning bright. – Kevin]

J.T. in Athens, Alabama, writes: Love my Rifts® books. Truly awesome world to work with. Can’t wait for the new books to arrive. Keep up the great work.

[Hey J.T., I think you’ll love what we have coming out. You need to get Rifts® Coalition Manhunters and check out the Titan Robotics Kickstarter taking place right now. – Kevin]

R.K. in Bellingham, Washington, writes (in part): My favorite games are Rifts®, Nightbane®, and Heroes Unlimited, with Beyond the Supernatural a growing favorite. I’m a Palladium fan from way back ... lost all my books ... slowly rebuilding my collection.

[Sorry to hear about your loss, R.K., but you’re smart to use the Surprise Package offer to rebuild your collection. Try to get another one or two in if you can. – Kevin]

E.J. in Hanover, Pennsylvania, writes: My teenage son and I are getting back into Ninjas & Superspies and After the Bomb®! Back in the day my crew were serious TMNT and Robotech® players and, of course, we dabbled in Rifts® as it rolled out.

[Sounds like fun, E.J., we wish we were there gaming along with you. Merry Christmas. – Kevin]

NEW! Lopan^™ (Fantasy) Raw Preview Edition – Collector’s item – Available now

Get your first glimpse of Lopan with the Lopan™ Raw Preview Edition. Lopan is the often overlooked gem of the North. Nestled in the middle of the inland sea, it is near the center of the known world, yet Lopan is isolated from much of the rest of the world’s nations. This has kept it a calm, peaceful domain largely free from war and conflict. The creation and clever marketing of the (Olympic-like) Lopanic Games and the Garden of the Gods have brought Lopan international notoriety and increased trade from the rest of the civilized world.

Like the rest of the Palladium World, Lopan has a long, rich history, much of it forgotten. A history which harbors ancient secrets and forgotten magicks, such as Mosaic Magic. Meanwhile, though it seems grand, its future is not entirely certain. As a home to Elvenkind, these long-lived people, alone, bring with them a checkered past and a certain amount of drama that can be good or bad for Lopan’s future.

Glen Evans’ Lopan world book explores the present politics, people, and places, as well as a few of its secrets and history. Lopan is a safe environment where visitors do not have to worry about war, throngs of thieves and cutthroats, or monsters. That makes it a resource and staging ground for expeditions into any of the many lands around the island nation. Lopan serves as a place for adventurers and mercenaries to resupply, sell and trade treasure and loot, buy weapons and gear, acquire magic, find clues and information about new quests, and rest in between missions. Of course, the Lopanic Games offer the chance for fame and riches, while the Garden of the Gods may provide inspiration, visions, quests, and just causes to champion.

• Your first glimpse of Lopan in its “raw” manuscript form.
• Kingdom of Lopan overview and notable history.
• Key cities and places.
• New character classes.
• Notable people.
• New Mosaic Magic.
• Magic items and gear.

• Only 350 copies of this limited collector’s item are available.
• Sold on a first come, first served basis, while supplies last.
• Written by Glen Evans.
• 184 pages – $28.99 retail – Cat. No. 476-RAW – Available now.
• What is a Raw Preview Edition? It is the unfinished, unedited, advance manuscript subject to rewrites and expansion. It gets a limited print run of around 200-350 copies and is fun for collectors to have something rare and unique, and is especially handy for writers and game designers (and curious gamers) because they get a glimpse into the development process at Palladium when they compare what is in the Raw Preview and what sees print in the final book, what gets expanded, dropped out, etc. In this case, writer Glen Evans has presented an overview of Lopan based on conversations and notes from Kevin Siembieda. Kevin will be tweaking and adding material to make the final book even more compelling and full of adventure hooks. And of course, this is the perfect companion for Garden of the Gods and if all goes well, it should be followed by a sourcebook about the fabled Lopanic Games (and how your characters can participate in them).

NEW! Land of the South Winds^™ (Fantasy) Raw Preview Edition – Collector’s item – Available now

Get your first glimpse of the Land of the South Winds with the Land of the South Winds™ Raw Preview. Also known as the Land of 10,000 Cults, the Land of the South Winds is a sweltering pit of secrets, mysteries and opportunity for those bold enough to seize it. From its farmland to its dense coastal cities, the region is infested with Ratlings, jungle people, death cults, jungle cults, strange religions, believers in forgotten and ancient gods, dark magic, foreign spies, smugglers, pirates, mercenaries, thieves, assassins, nonhumans, adventurers, and fortune seekers of every type. Political corruption abounds and intrigue and opportunity of all sorts, there and abroad, are available for those bold (or foolish) enough to seize the moment. In short, it is a great place for adventure!

All of it filled with even more mystery and intrigue and adventure opportunities than you see here. The Raw Preview is 224 pages all by itself.

Still Hot! Rifts^® Automated Character Sheet for EXCEL

The next step in character data collection! This EXCEL template provides automation to your Rifts® character creation process. Done in Microsoft Excel, this character template will allow you to build your character with substantial ease and speed. Ideal for the new gamer who doesn’t know all of the Palladium Books® rules just yet, it’s also a highly effective tool for Game Masters and advanced players alike who make multiple characters, NPCs or just like to min/max or theory craft characters between games.

• Dice Roller: A simple dice roller is on the main page of the character sheet to help with character creation or in-game dice rolling needs.
• Automated Attributes and Stat Block: All the bonuses and features from attributes are presented in a large stat block allowing you to easily see your bonus to save vs Psionics, Mind Control, etc. You can pick your strength type (Normal, Augmented, Robotic or Supernatural) to determine your carrying and lifting capacity and even your M.D. punch damage if your strength is high enough and of the right type.
• Automated Combat Stats: The main page holds a section where you can pull up data for your various combat stats, from hand to hand abilities such as Strike, Parry, Dodge and Disarm, to W.P. bonuses including those of the W.P. Sharpshooting variety. This section draws upon all of your character’s selection of skills and abilities and even offers customization from odd O.C.C. or racial abilities.
• Automated Psionics: All psionics from Rifts® Ultimate Edition, Rifts® World Book 12: Psyscape™ and Rifts® World Book 32: Lemuria can be selected from a dropdown menu that then populates tables with the information on psionics for your character. Each psionic ability’s data including damage, M.D.C. and range also automatically increases based on the character’s level of experience.
• Automated Spells: All Common Invocations, Necromancy, Ocean Magic and Biomancy spells (yes, all the Lemurian Biomancer spells too!) can be selected from a dropdown menu that then populates tables with the information on spells for your character. Each spell’s data including damage, M.D.C. and range also automatically increases based on the character’s level of experience.
• Automated Skills: All skills from the Rifts® Ultimate Edition, Rifts® World Book 25: China 2 – Heroes of the Celestial Court™ and Rifts® World Book 32: Lemuria can be selected and then automatically add bonuses from prerequisites and related skills. Physical skills that provide bonuses also add those bonuses directly to attributes and combat stats. Bonuses that require dice rolls are denoted and can then be manually rolled and added to the character sheet. Custom percent bonuses such as O.C.C. bonuses can also be added to individual skills.
• Automated Cybernetics & Bionics: All cybernetics and bionics from Rifts® Ultimate Edition along with some favorites from other books can be selected from dropdown menus which then tabulate bonuses and add them to your combat stats. Prices also sum up so an enterprising Headhunter can keep track of his hardware and upgrades. Simple cybernetic body part diagrams even allow players to allocate the locations of their various cybernetic and bionic components.
• Freeform O.C.C. and Racial Power Section: A section for non-standard powers, special O.C.C. or racial abilities allows the player to add custom skills and powers that can be linked to those features to draw upon the character’s level of experience, I.Q. bonus or other stats so powers grow as the character advances.
• Character Building Section: On the main page of the document is a section to help you build your character, from customizing attributes, to adding non-standard bonuses from O.C.C. or racial abilities, to an optional point buy system for attributes.
• Helpful Hints and Suggestions: Red triangular tabs appear throughout the document. Hovering over the red tab with the mouse cursor will reveal useful data from sourcebooks, hints, suggestions and other information, such as what a particular stat means, how it’s used in the game and what things can add bonuses or affect it. There is also a page with overview instructions on how to use the sheet, and a number of instructional videos will be posted via Palladium TV on the ins and outs of the character sheet. The first can be found here: http://youtu.be/a89XzAV37sE
• Portrait: A special sheet is set up so you can add an image to the document for a custom portrait for your character. That image is then displayed on the main page and is protected from accidental movement or deletion from the main page.
• Password Protected: Several pages of the document are password protected so players won’t accidently delete formulas and ruin the character sheet’s automated features. The password is provided so players can customize the sheet to their liking then protect the sheet again so they don’t undo all their hard work.
• Note: The file is best used in Microsoft EXCEL 2016 or above. Some data may be lost if not using Microsoft EXCEL, such as when using similar products like Open Office.
• Available from PalladiumBooks.com AND DriveThruRPG.com – make them characters!
