We've already gone over the city book idea in another thread, so I was wondering what other sourcebooks you'd like to see for BTS. Maybe a book focusing entirely on one kind of supernatural being, such as a "Lazlo Agency Field Guide To Ghosts" or maybe a sourcebook devoted to various agencies combatting and investigating the supernatural around the world. What do you want to see? (Aside from the first three planned books actually getting published, of course.)

I like the book on Ghosts Idea.

I also like the book on organizations.

You have already mentioned most of what I want to see. How about a series of books focusing on different eras opf the BOS world. An example is a Victorian era sourcebook. Maybe some BOS novels.

orginization...maybe throw in a few bad guy orgs, and conspiracies.

A book dedicated entirely to Psionics.

I think info on Magic in BtS will be in BtS:Arcanum sourcebook.

BtS:Tome Grotesque will be on New Mosters.

I hope ther will be a Book on NPC,s and Organizations, it can show Npc,s for Lazlo Agency and bad guys.

Maybe ther can be a Book on Magic weapons and items on BtS,s earth?

they can have a New O.C.C,s call Enchanter ,one of ther Special abilities is they can permanently integrated a magic spells to items.

What do you think?

possibly. But I think it would be too "magical" for a game like BTS. I think one in palladium or rifts would work better.

You could probably do a battle between angels and demons and devils. Forfit the name of heaven and God and it could go.

I'm working on a quick little book (I figured I'd call it "Behold the Paranormal" for S&G) that will have stuff on cults, new places of power, mysteries, conspiracies, some alien MIB/X-Files type stuff and other bits and pieces I like to use in BTS games.

MEPH!

Wait, are you THE Mephisto, from the Chat's way back in '00?

and if so, do you remember a goofy fool named Perfect or Slight, or Halo, or Ethereal, or Echo Blue...or just alt?

and if so, hey man, long time no chat, that does sound like a cool idea...

I'm looking to get BTS 2e when it comes out, it's the only Palladium line besides Recon that I haven't looked into.

This might be a touch to religious a book for Palladium though; they tend to shy away from anything that would horribly offend the Christian Right... Just an observation.

CJ Carella has done his own fine take on this with Armageddon, personally, I'd rather not see a repeat in the BtS line. Certainly, you could have these beings out there but I would forgo the "The End is Nigh" stuff because it has been done-- even "The End is Nigh, but Not Like the Scriptures Say".

Yeah.

ANYTHING!!! The fact that my friend plays RPGs in the church and she's a Nun offends them. But it keeps teens safe. There is just no pleasing some ppl.

Have the raptors from Jurassic Park all become possessed. Then it's a BtS game.
Maybe have a tectonic entity form from the rubble of bldgs that the tyrannosaurs wrecks.
How about some undead T-rex victims?

I think a book on 10 cities U.S that are the Most Haunted can wokr.

As long as it have New Orleans and Boston in it.

What Cities do you want it to be on?

Been there, done that...How better to distract the guards at a museum while stealing something(s)? Cast animate the dead on the dinos while invisable while your friends loot the rest of the place. It is so much fun to be GM.

what i would do is 2 Source books, and then focus on "region" books.

a creature book, with more entities, demons, ect.
and a "Society" book, with Agencies, secret societies, and cults that are nation wide.

the region books would focus on different area's and the unique stuff in them. for example a US pacific west book, a Deep south book, New England, ect.
