Right now mine is in North America. Mostly in the New Lazlo area, but the guys are heading to Mexico and decided to go the northern route via Wisconsin.
Not good on geography this group. Great on History and other social sciences, but not geography.
Hand them a map and ask them how going north gets you to Mexico.

The campaign I'm running off and on right now is set in the middle of the Tolkeen War, 105 PA. The characters are chiefly Vanguard sleeper agents working inside the Tolkeen Defense Force's ranks on behalf of the CS... of course without the knowledge of the CS itself other than a small few Vanguard sympathizers who serve as their contacts/handlers.

Tactical Hazardous Engagement [T.H.E.] is a mobile merc group they have several branches throughout North America. The main one in Kingsdale. They have a small branch in Northern Gun territory.
The game previous to that was ran through phase world. The game previous to that was a CS game The game previous to that was in Texas
I guess we got a short attention span compared to some of the guys on here that have campaign's that last for 20 years. oh well, good enough for me!

Huh, funny. The group I am in just recently got rifted into Russia. We were fighting some BBA in the remains of what used to be Fort Gordon (located near Augusta, GA, well within the Dinosaur Swamp area) when it opened a rift and it tossed one of the party members through. Another character got tossed through the rift, we kill the BBA finally and my character jumps through the rift to rescue the other two, only to find that it's a one-way rift. The other two members of the group eventually decide to jump through as well, abandoning our mission (which was to blow up the base hospital that some entity turned into it's base) all because someone forgot to detonate the demo-pack that my character made from 24 plasma mini-missiles and 10 plasma grenades. The group consists of myself, a Bearman of the North Headhunter, a human City Rat, a human Rogue Scientist (or Scholar, I can't remember) a human mutant Cyber-Knight, and a Wolfen Cyber-Knight.

I start them individually and give them reasons to go to the Burbs of Chi-Town and from there it begins. We usually only spend one or two but never (in the past) more than 5 sessions in one location. They've currently been in Center on Phase World for a LONG time. It started as an accidental... and coincidental rushed dimensional teleport just before the Apocolypse demon went BOOM. They appeared in different locations across the city but have since managed to find each other and just before they were going to go back to Earth, Central was invaded by demons and they are currently assisting Thraxus in a ploy to create a bottleneck at a check point to level one while a massive Naruni Equipped army holds the tide back making a false opening to the designated check point.

Playing Rifts with your five older children, PRICELESS.
My tabletop Rifts game I run is going through the Tolkeen war right now, although the group is currently in Lazlo trying to track down the Orb of Solomon.
In the online games I play...
The CS group is in Atlantis at the moment, but based out of Merctown Another merc group I'm in is based in Merctown, but currently in Old Bones Our NGR group is currently in Russia
I prefer North America, mostly because it has the most source books/background info and as a GM I'm most familiar with the setting. I also like to create my own pocket dimensions to flex my creativity and get a little more control over the group.
Like Shinitenshi it really all depends on my campaign. I have had groups run around in Europe, Russia, China, Japan, SA, and all over NA. My next campaign I think will be placed in Australia. (I am going to use a combination of the Dreamscape and the Astral Plane to represent the the Dreamtime.)
DM is correct by the way. - Ninjabunny It's a shoddy carpenter who blames his tools. - Killer Cyborg Every group has one problem player. If you cannot spot the one in your group; look in the mirror. It is not a good session until at least one player looks you in the eye and says "you sick twisted evil ****"
Most of mine start in southern Wisconsin. Funny that's where me and my group live ;p We are a creative bunch at times.

I generally run my games everywhere. By the time your character reachers 8-10 level in my games, you will have visited 90% of the books that palladium creates, even Nightbane and Ninja Turtles. I don't "F" around when it comes to this system. I own every book, except Heroes of the Megaverse and I use every one of them. But... With that being said... The games usually focus around Center in Phaseworld, just because Gateland allows for somewhat infinite possibility. My gaming parties usually go something like this: Wormwood Blood Shaman, Mindwerks Full Conversion Borg, Altess Space Pirate, Glitterboy, Mega Juicer, and a Palladium Dark Priest. That was the last group. However, it's usually pretty diverse. I can't bring myself to limit players to a 1-3 book campaign. Sorry, but just can't do it.

kingsdale for me but I actually did play one based out of Hanoi
I remember days like this when my father took me to the forest and we ate wild blueberries. More than 20 years ago. I was just a boy of four or five. The leaves were so dark and green then. The grass smelled sweet with the spring wind...For us, there is no spring. Just the wind that smells fresh before the storm.

Only episodes 1-2 have been released in Japan so far, 3-5 will come out next year. As for the US, Funimation has the license so hopefully they will release quickly after #5 comes out in Japan.

Never heard of a series called "DNA Cowboys" and could find nothing on it.

This is a huge bad case of we have been posting together for way too long to not know that we are within a handful of miles from each other.
Hey more than a few Georgia rifters then - I'm down in Macon. I actually started a campaign there (with the Fort and the Indian Mounds; re Dinosaur Swamp) but it fell apart quickly due to scheduling (as many do).
My online game is set in the ruins of Baton Rouge with the CS Brown Water Base there. The group will be patrolling up and down the Mississippi before its done, and I intend to send them down into the gulf at least once. They'll also be dealing with the Juicer Uprisings, though most don't know it yet. Of course they aren't dealing with Newtown, just the aftermath and lead up of it. I may send them into Minnesota for a mission or two as well, all depending on where we are at when the campaign gets there (and assuming the game lasts that long). I hope it does. Of course the past few months have been dealing with the events of two days so far, so we'll see
