Dice Rifts Adventure OOC

[DraconianWarrior]

thank you, sorry its just last time i tried that it didnt work, i must have misspelled thier name

 

[Purr]

Maybe, but you got "misspelled" right. Did you know most people screw that one up? =)

 

[DraconianWarrior]

really?

 

[Sherwood]

Psychie or Sherwood Would you give me the price on the Lawman Terra is using, please? And ammo? I think I'd like to get it. it looks like just the thing to take on vampires at range .=)

Cost: 24,000 credits for the gun, 120 credits per shell or 16,000
credits for a box of 144 shells. An extra empty drum magazine
(hold 19 rounds) costs 500 credits each.

 

[Purr]

DraconianWarrior - Yep! =)

Sherwood - Crud. That's out of my price range. Also, I came to realize my character should not have a AT-230 Particle Beam Rifle because the Republic of Japan hates technology, and therefore he has no reasonable way of getting one.

So... the search continues! Once I figure those two things out I think my character sheet will finally be completed! Yay!

 

[DraconianWarrior]

just want to let everyone know that i have work today so i apologize if i dont respond right away

 

[Silanon]

No worries - noone expects you to be online 24 hours a day. As some people have already said here: Real life comes first. This is a hobby, after all - thanks for the note anyway, though!

 

[Purr]

Yeah, DraconianWarrior! What Silanon said! Most of us won't be posting every day or anything like that. The game is new and hot and so there's lots of posting right now. =)

Sherwood I think I spotted a minor typo in the Game Master Guide. On 158, they list the NG-P7 Particle Beam Rifle as having 2D4x10 M.D. damage, but in both the original Rifts Main and in Rifts Ultimate Edition, the damage for that weapon is 1D4x10 (and given its price of 22,000 cr, that seems reasonable to me). It probably won't affect anything in your game, but there it is. =)

As my "high powered energy rifle," could I please get the M-160 Assault Rifle from Game Master Guide, page 156? Sure, it's rare, but boy is that thing just terrific in a number of ways!

Rolling now for a number of things on the Undead Slayer gear list. =)

EDIT: Bought a "Stun Gun (blaster)" from the Rifts Main Book, page 245, that uses "energy clips." I take these are E-Clips?

 

[Sherwood]

Purr I never noticed the typo myself; I'll do my best to keep it in mind.

The rifle sounds fine to me to snag. Go for it.

The Stun Gun does use Energy Clips.

IC post will be forthcoming soon.

 

[Purr]

Fantastic! Thank you! With that, my character sheet is done! =)

 

[Dano]

Question... when you say shifter... can you explain? I dont think it means what I think it means... I'm thinking shapeshifter but that doesn't seem to fit the context... any clarification would be appreciated.

 

[Purr]

Dano I'll give this a shot if Sherwood doesn't mind? Shifter is an O.C.C. from Rifts Main Book (or Rifts Ultimate Edition if you have it). These powerful mages are the ultimate when it comes to Rift and supernatural creature manipulation. No one (as far as I know) does it as good as they do. "It" is opening Rifts and summoning creatures through them (usually). They come good, evil, and in-between. They deal with supernatural creatures and D-Bees all of the time.

Shifters are the only class that truly master the ability to "pop planes" as part of their character class. Getting around the Megaverse is what they do and the doing can be very, very dangerous - a fact they live with. As such, they know the Megaverse like few people do, including I would imagine, places like Atlantis. =)

 

[Dano]

I'm assuming we "must" travel this way and not by aircraft / boat or any other type of vehicle?

 

[Epiphany]

It's not a requirement. It's an option, one unique to the setting. It's also not without risks.

There's no faster way to travel, though. But it does mean (A) taking a risk we won't land where want, (B) accidentally shifting to the wrong dimension instead of Earth, (C) we won't necessarily have an escape vehicle/escape route on hand, as well as (D) typically people only take what they can carry through Rifts, though I suppose we could drive a vehicle through...

 

[Sherwood]

Psychie I am going to limit your Starfire Cannons to be able to fire only twice per round. Otherwise they are going to be to powerful.

 

[Psychie]

Ok, I won't complain.

 

[Sherwood]

On second thought, I am going to say 'no' to you having two of those pulse cannons. One is ok, your second Earth Thunderer will have to rely upon its melee attacks or spells. Once you level up enough to be able to operate both at once, that is.

 

[Epiphany]

Rifts is such an easy game to game. >_>

I'm in the subtle process of swapping some skills around on Kimberly, as I somewhat inadvertently made her build a bit better than I expected. <_< I can't optimize a character to save my life in Exalted, how do I accidentally do it in Palladium?

 

[DraconianWarrior]

the item i requested is in the Australia book page 221

and the DCCG is i the northern gun 2 book its mentioned as an optional form of control for drones its mentioned in detail on page 245

 

[Epiphany]

Drones and remote piloted helicopters?

That's taking it to a whole new level.

 

[DraconianWarrior]

haha i would have asked for ten but i wanted to be reasonable

 

[DraconianWarrior]

the DCCG is to control the helicopters without having to use VR

 

[Sherwood]

Let me take a look at them and I'll let you know.

 

[Epiphany]

Lord Brazamal: This is going to be a stealth mission.
Everyone: I want the biggest guns, planes and rockets I can get.
Lord Brazamal: ...maybe I should explain what 'Stealth' mission means...

 

[Epiphany]

Lord Brazamal: Didn't I say you can't take on all of Atlantis?
Terra: I see a giant techno-wizard borg wrecking machine, I'm a wizard piloting a giant mech, we have cyborgs, more wizards, an Atlantean blade master and whatever the blind chick is...if you didn't want your rescuers to take on all of Atlantis, boy did you hire the wrong crew.
Lord Brazamal: >

And the official motto for this game:
"It's still stealth if you blow up anyone who could detect and report you."
