Forums of the Megaverse®

Have any of you guys puzzled why this board is so slow, compared to the others palladium boards(with the exception fo System Failure).
I figured out this cuold be related to the fact that we are not many interested in splcier(i'm a case apart i'm a megaversal croonie, I'm into anything palladium). Or perhaps is the fact that on long term the man against the machine campaign become boring, mostly for the lack of charismatic villains. Apart the seven main villainess , the average robot has the charme of a toaster. And they don't feel pain, a fact that disappoint the bloodthirsty munchkins. Another cause of this sluggish moment of the board could be the relative lack fo reference material to talk about. No no soucebook, but referecne stuff, like pictures, book, comics or movies. Other games got plenty of it. Biotech don't get this luxury, being a very recetn concpet, less than 20 years old. On the other side the them of man vs. Machine was more than exploited.
sincerely don't know, perhaps the most simple answer is that people got busy.

Well, I don't yet have the book... And when I add up the cost of what books I am missing... I think it should be another 2 or 3 years to catch up. I think ... I hope.


Anyway, Splicers was on my list to buy at the Open House, but I had a budget, and I had 18 books on my list that I wanted and I knew I could only get 5. Heh.

Been there done that. Rifts china is on my To BUY list since the first one come out... thinking about my budget make me sad.

Splicers is very much a "special interest" setting at present. Hopefully this changes once the in progress sourcebooks are done and see print.

As it happens, BtS2 suffers the same problems.

For me, i Dislike the Man vs Machine aspect of the game completely. Its very boring. The AIs are not to my liking either.

So i focus on HOUSE vs HOUSE conflicts and Politics within a single house as well as politics between Houses.

Thats much more fun.

My Splicer game came to an end tonight as we started a HU2/Nightbane game. Players = Mutant/Hardware character (Invulnerability/Immortality major), Mega-Imbued character (Sonic Flight, Divine Healing, Matter Expulsion Metal, Disintergration, Mega-Immortality), and a Were-Insect Nightbane.

At my current rate, I figure 2010.

You should join the Word Association game and the 4 Word ATB story... that should boost you a few a month

Hey now....that's evil.


Those things get deleted on a regular basis, so any posts you have in them are temporary at best. Well, maybe not the ATB story one

Yeah, the threads get pruned, but the post count stays - the "count" system is very screwy like that.

Huh - just realized that I am probably eligible to get into Sound Off now.

I think that I'll pass.

Judging by posts I've seen made by people, the post count doesn't stay....

Everything pass and fade awaym even post count.

Yes, but I'm somehow excused because
a) I'm not english, and I don't live in an english speaking nation.
b) Typing errors happen!(to me more than anyone else)...I hate qwerty keyboard!

The last time I was in the Dark Dimension, everyone there spoke fluent Demongogian, what happened?

Well recently Dark Dimension was brought Freedom and Democracy, American Style, so we were kindly asked to pass to English... Ya know President Splynncryth can be such picky about such things

With the quality of this book it will catch on good. Just needs two more books to set things up good, but I think the lack of magic and psionics is holding some people back. What a great book!
