I ...Just adding my "ditto" to the chorus. I love the Rifts setting, it's been a my #1 go to setting to mine for ideas for sci-fi and post apoc games for almost as long as I've been playing. (The Palladium Fantasy setting is great also.) As for actually playing Rifts (or any Palladium game for that matter) anymore, nope, not gonna happen. There are systems out there that can go that KS's system does a lot faster and with more internal consistency. A Rifts "fluff-only" book (well, book series) would be awesome. kanegrundarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07586929205405091597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569613471183362572.post-52220050303246269272013-04-28T10:01:44.744-04:002013-04-28T10:01:44.744-04:00I agree, the setting is awesome, the mechanic; cha...I agree, the setting is awesome, the mechanic; character generation in particular just doesn't work for me anymore.

Even with no crunch, there are nearly 35 world books and 15 dimension books!<br /><br />The silver lining is that many of the world books, especially the older ones, can be had for cheap on Amazon or ABE. <br /><br />I think Palladium would do well to publish a centralized system book as well, but they'll probably never do that either.DMWieghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03682249561077936507noreply@blogger.com
