Discussion: A central premise of RIFTS is the tension created by people sacrificing their humanity to fight the inhuman.

How has that played out in your games? Do those characters who do take the options to sacrifice their humanity - Borgs, juicers, D-bees, etc... deal with challenges related to those choices, and if so how do you incorporate that without simply making them barred from half the places your players choose to visit?

If they were good they'd not have the skull and death motif. They'd have a knight in shining armor motif.

Which is why the liberal NGR is stomping all over the Coalition technologically, socially and militarily all the way from Naples to the Ruhr.

>Savage Rifts® for Savage Worlds® rules

>The more we see, the more we like. The release of the Savage Rifts® game line from Pinnacle Entertainment is promising to be pretty awesome. Sorry, I can’t say too much except we are getting excited about it as it all comes together. We’ve been reviewing and approving artwork, covers, text and so on. I even wrote a forward a week or so ago.

Neat. Savage Worlds is a great system. I hope they eventually convert a bunch of the world books. Vampire Kingdoms, New West, Lone Star, Coalition War Campaign, Northern Gun and Japan being some of my favorites.

Favorite world book?

I think China seems like the coolest rifts bit, cool enough that I'm considering porting some of its stuff to my GURPS game. I already threw an animal-hybrid person (or whatever they were called) into a Nightbane game, the dragon-girl with snake kung fu went over well.

Dinosaur hunting is a hard but rewarding job, need the right gear so that you can take the motherfuckers down, but nothing too much that it destroys the hides and shit, and repair cost/upkeep of gear going over how much you are gonna make.
>>
>>46011412

Not to mention there's a whole OTHER series of giant robot dinosaurs in south America, so if you ask about missile launching chrome T-red vehicles you need to specify which one.
>>
>>46011592
The real killer is trying to get all the shit out, need something that can haul giant dino carcasses, if you don't have anyone that can skin and prepare the hides, usually have to go to locals. Then the whole fact that the area is a swamp, makes it harder for bigger vehicles and shit to get in and out. Then there is also the risk of poachers and people just looking to steal your game, and other crazy RIFTS shit.

Why would anybody go juicer, when there are ways to get power without dying in a few years?
>>
>>46014518
Maybe it's the closest, cheapest option where they live.
Maybe they don't see dying in a few years as a bad thing.
Maybe they were forced into it.
>>
>>46014518
Cheaper form of a shock trooper, just push in some chems into a person and boom super soldier cannon fodder, right there right now.

Power Armor is expensive, not all places in RIFTS have access to it or produce them, repairs and upkeep are a bitch if you can get the supplies and parts, transporting Power Armor is a hassle cuz you aren't gonna be in it 24/7, and some situation you wouldn't/won't be in Power Armor.

There is a lot of logistics to owning Power Armor. But most just see "POWER ARMOR!? FUCK YEAH!"
>>
>>46014518
When the life expectancy in some areas can vary from 23 years to 23 minutes depending on the neighboring monster population the Juicer option might seem pretty good
>>
>>46014685
Plus there are not as many skilled Power Armor Pilots as there are people able to go Juicer.

I don't remember the exact reasoning, just N-Gage emulation isn't as advanced as some other forms of emulation, so while games with less security issues or that don't modify the system's code work fine, with others they just don't emulate.
