After the bomb Mutant Animals in Albedo Setting

Albedo just came out with it's 20th aniversary edition. It's a cool game and I've always liked the generic feel of it's aerodynes and military vehicles. They "sanitized" the mutant animals thou, taking away any special abilities to make them more human. The After the Bomb Mutant animals and rules used in an Albedo setting would put the life back into these unfortunate creatures. (they won't even let the birds fly!)

This skids real close to forbidden territory on these boards, namely that of conversions of other people's intellectual properties. What you do at home for your own game is fine, but it can't be discussed here. I'm not trying to be mean or anything, it's just Palladium wants to avoid a repeat of the Jedi O.C.C. incident several years ago.

Just curious, is it just RPG material that's taboo. These forums have lots of movie conversion references and I think Paramount and the like are even more protective of their property. Plus I've seen other rpg material such as GURPS and Vampire and DnD conversions on these boards as well as computer game conversions. Don't understand why I was singled out? Maybe cause I'm new?

Any thread with conversions will be deleted when a mod sees it. As for all these conversions you say you see what threads are they in?

Yah, i noticed that. Actually don't want to see deletions as it's all good to me, I'll let the moderators do their job and just enjoy the forum.

I just don't want to see you making the mistakes other people have done. And yes, anything that is an intellectual property of someone else (movie, TV, RPG, work of fiction) can not be converted. This is doubly so with IPs that are licensed to other RPG companies (i.e. Star Wars, Buffy, Army of Darkness).
