To: Mark Hall, Khanibal, Eliakon, and future posters...do you guys agree with ShadowLogan that as an alchemist trap, it doesn't have to follow the same rules that a general spell caster does? Even though yes, it was anchored to two sliding panels...one below and one above. Fortunately for them, they...

This is an idea for a game world...in an sdc environment, LOW PPE, and I'm talking VERY LOW! Like, only way to naturally restore spent ISP or PPE is to sleeping or meditating on or at a ley lines or nexus or mediaite in the astral. 20 ppe for per hour on a ley line, and times that by however many le...

Can the spell energy field be moved once it is cast by a level 7 wizard? My player is arguing with me because I wouldn't let him cast energy field twice and move them to smash the militia that's after his party. Now, in his defense, I did used a mobile energy field as a trap 3 games ago, but it was ...

It’s been awhile since I’ve played and I don’t have my core rulebook anymore but does Call Lightening even require a roll to strike? Not officially, but some GM's do require them for spells. I don't, but she does on anything without a saving through that is an attack. Plus the fact making a called ...

You asked if I would have allowed this. I answered. You don't need to argue how your house rules work, or why your group has made those house rules. You don't need to justify yourself here, your not on trial and the gaming police won't come take away your books and dice if you can't defend your rul...

When I say flachettes, I am talking about the air-dropped flechette not the shotguns bullets with nails.

Yes, however, they don't have a lot of magic on there side. And you've got to admit the effectiveness of some of the spells. Specifically Air: Phantom and the Rift's spell of legend warrior hoard. Which I can see Thoth's priests having. Also, something to consider: the combined use of dimensional po...

The spell wont short out electronics... In Rifts, no...but in like nightbane, BtS, N&SS, I have blown up computers. I am playing at level 11. So, reduce it if you wish, but salt water IS still an excellent conductor of electricity. But for the sake of the debate...because it does disperse as it...

Well, I'm not quite sure what the allowed part is that is being questioned. -Vek "Also, it's magical lightning so it isn't necessarily conducted by water." She didn't take into consideration that I had carpet of adhesion, cloud of slumber, multiple image, telekinesis and rope, words of tr...

We are going to now play a fun game, called "Would you have aloud it?" Where we give each other gamemaster's call that we have questioned or disapposed. An army of like 35-50 mercs, dressed as pirates, and hired by a mate's character to get his son back. Apparently he was due to marry a du...

For me, there is a lot of sentimental value to Palladium games from my childhood. The games also bring many of us together as friends for a wonderful time. Of course, any game system is capable of that, but there is something special about playing the same game with your kid that you also played wh...

Oh, I see. Great question. It would be heartbreaking if they closed their doors. I don't know if I would have the same reaction. I mean, yes, I get that they are busy. However, it has been a LONG ride, and their promises were not kept. And I have simply lost almost all of my faith in the company.

pblackcrow

I wouldn't count on it. It's absolutely stunning how little Robotech stuff is out there. If I owned that license, I'd market the hell out of it. Harmony Gold is sitting on a gold mine and they do nothing with it. Unreal. No, I was talking about if Palladium Books goes under because of the lawsuits.

pblackcrow

Well, SHOULD worse case scenario happen, I'm almost certain that they will be bought out and licenses and rights bought up. Hopefully by people who will continue these lines, and actually check them for errors and edit them...which for some reason keep getting left in the books. And hopefully do so ...

Does anyone "OFFICIAL" have any idea when the rest of the PFRPG 2nd ed books will be released on ebooks?

I find that, if you consider the AR to be the AR of the field itself, which has to be brought down before anything inside can be damaged, the spell remains useful, without being overpowering.. I agree. However, it is still a weak force field at a 4 to damage it. Heck, it is the baseline to hit anyt...

I am moving to the Los Angeles, CA again with in the next 3-4 months. This time to stay for 10+ years. And I would like to get to know more people there before I move out there this time.

Energy field spell...the crappy AR solution. 4+1 per level of the caster. That way it can grow as the character develops.

4+1 per level of experience. That way it can grow as the character develops.

First off, we are talking a player v/s player v/s GM type of game of pirate, privateer, psionic, and magician. We use Palladium Fantasy rules. We each have miniatures, to scale plans of what our ships look like, and the like. And Miniature ships, thanks in part to Sails of Glory.. Now, that said...m...

In the last campaign I ran one of my players was part of a new Noble House. In the western empire, his father had been raised to nobility by imperial decree after thwarting an assassination plot against the new emperor. The player in my campaign was the nobles second son. His eldest brother had emb...

So, how is everyone doing this holiday season?

pblackcrow

Do they have a following already? If not, 3.5 words for you...it's bard time! Bards are great PR reps. Or do they have land and want to keep the fuss to a minimum? If so, have them take in refugees and establish a "patroonship".

Not sure what resources they have.

Hey Shawn,

Wow, there it is, staring me in the face. I can't believe I missed that on the source map. Well, that's a pretty easy fix. I'll move Raf-Chalon west a bit and put Old City Ruins in between them. That should solve the space issue. Distance-wise, I don't see a major issue with Wisdom claiming it; the...

An assassin would make for a rather interesting plot twist. I might have to weave that in there, after everyone gets their titles. However, I am not going to sacrifice my mini plots. Besides, why would an elven assassin wish to rush? His oath to cause the family of the man cost him his. I figure he ...

Hey Mates, I need some more ideas on how to test my players...To start, the players are either brothers, sisters, cousins, or wives, husbands or lovers there of. There is a reason for this.

This is just some of the thing that I have done to give the map a bit more validity with my players (as we have done a lot in Timiro and the southern part of ET) was to put Raf-Chalin on the map and move New Crest,to where it no longer invades space with what is on the Timiro map.

I just read the preview of the new book, and am definitely going to order it!

What kind of heroes are we talking about? Happy you asked that...I suppose it is more of a Justice League Dark type of team. Only, instead of swam thing you, have Eco (Eric Di'Medichi) who is basically a cross between an stone master and an earth warlock. There's his wife, Envira (Angelina Fortunat...

i thought of that after I wrote interrogation room. The training room would be over kill, at lease at this point...Hangar, Manufacturing bay, and Electronics Lab & Clean Room would too.

Guys, what does a group of heroes need to have a base of operations? Other than a gym, medical room, place for a crime lab, interrogation room, a monitoring room, individual apartments, and kitchen/bar area.

I don't let the phantom footman learn any skills save those in the description... they're a tiny chunk of elemental air, not a full person. It's like someone took the bit of a demon that goes into a witch, and made it a non-implanted servitor. It's not bright, it's basically something that will do ...

pblackcrow

That's right folks, I wish to talk about what those phantom footmen and phantom are good for, also discuss what skills they should be assigned/can learn. And also, I noticed an inconsistency...Or was that simply to stay that generally the footman will stay within 200 feet but can go up to 1000 feet ...

In my world, they take double damage from cold steal weapons. But that's a GM's call.
