    Shackled City - Ch. 1: Life's Bazaar

    Sym eyes the alley way curiously for a moment then steps in blending with the shadows Themind I move silently (roll = 13 including +5 to skill) down the alley way scuffling along the walls in the shadows not wishing to be caught in the middle of something that may not benefit me with some...

    Can you guys recommend some free map making programs for a DM in need?

    a couple of Free mappers I've tried is Screenmonkey and TMapper, neither of them as good as Campaign Cartographer granted but still good for nice looking maps, I also use AutoREALM as its good for multiple genres, has that labels on a grid look to it still, but its free as well.

    An Idea I had

    Hey guys so I was thinking about writing my own RPG and I find that there's much more to it than I initially thought. Now I've written several short shorties and had them published in quarterlys, and even had a small following for a Comic book I wrote and was distributed locally, but I've yet...

    Ultimate Rifts. Improvement or Same Old Stuff?

    KS would never write RIFTS as d20 so you wouldn't have to worry about that happening, and I seriously doubt that anyone that has a long history with Palladium would do it either as that would cause loss of their meal ticket, but someone from "outside" of palladium could be more easily persuaded...

    Ultimate Rifts. Improvement or Same Old Stuff?

    would say that the game could could be converted to d20 with a bit of shoehorning, just because d20 is written to balance classes, doesn't mean that you can't still have unbalanced classes within a d20 game...its just that the concept of RIFTS lends itself to needing a ton of tables and...

    Ultimate Rifts. Improvement or Same Old Stuff?

    I've yet to see people complain about lack of timeline in D&D though was my point, some people would like to have a time line I understand, just never been a concern of mine personally

    Ultimate Rifts. Improvement or Same Old Stuff?

    Depends on your definition of minor change :D I use a cheep world atlas and just drawn new shore lines as they are described in the books...there was a program floating around on the net somewhere at one time that would let you raise and lower water levels of the oceans over topographical...

    Ultimate Rifts. Improvement or Same Old Stuff?

    Just because rules are "streamlined" as somepeople would surely say, doesn't mean that a Glitterboy wouldn't still be able to smoke a Vagabond in a quick draw...RIFTS is designed with all character classes being balanced to each other but a good player can make his character stand up to anything...

    Ultimate Rifts. Improvement or Same Old Stuff?

    Sure he would, afterall they allow players to post House rules :D Just can't call it "RIFTS D20 Conversion Rules" because that would be wrong and prosecutable

    Ultimate Rifts. Improvement or Same Old Stuff?

    Let me see if I can provide a little insight I've had through years playing RIFTS among other games... Maps = Use an Atlas after all the basic geopraphy is earth, just with a few minor changes GMing adivse = Most of the books are filled with the background information to the area they cover...

    Ultimate Rifts. Improvement or Same Old Stuff?

    Ok So here's a quick question, and I'm not saying that this will happen its just hypothetical, but... If Rifts was Rereleased with all new d20 ruleset, since most peoples complaint seems to be that they love the setting but hate the rules would it be more enjoyable for you to play and therefore...
