If you know what this is, you win, but you are also an anti-social nerd-geek-dork.

RIFTS – What do I win?

A Splugorthian slave barge with Atlantean Blind Warrior Women. I so love/hate rifts!

They lost me when they brought out the Atlantis world book. So many rules and contradictions to other rules. I heard a rumour somewhere that a movie was being made??? But that was most likely just the stoned ramblings of one of our group members… There is always one in every group…

there’s like five of them in my group.

It has been optioned as a potential movie, but has been so since 2004 and they are no closer to actually making one than they were 6 years ago. Lots of reasons including 1)the 2008 writer’s strike, 2)Roleplayers are too small a demographic to ensure a movies success (see also D&D films or the lack or Serenity 2), and 3)Rifts is a very complicated setting, and 4)Kevin Siembieda is notoriously hard to work with.

IIRC it’s Jerry Bruckheimer studios that optioned it, it was actually re-optioned which means they are still interested. They have a fan campaign to send letters in to show support for the movie to be made, apparently someone in the industry informed Siembieda that fan campaigns really do make a difference. There’s info on the PB forums about the letter campaign. I doubt it’ll happen, but if it does I hope it’s good. If it’s bad, it would have been better to have not been made.

I remember a game scenario from a few years back, our group was getting a little cocky; we were a group of mercenaries-in-residence in a little town and were getting a little too big for our britches, so the GM warped a slaver into the middle of the town to get us to do something.
Well, we had a long battle, almost lost, but the local bar owner saved our asses by bringing out a heretofore unknown military-grade missile launcher to fend off the slaver. Wounded, the slaver opened a short-distance warp hole to escape.
Our crazy decided the best idea was to jump in after it!
We found the slaver warped to the basement of the bar, so the rest of us trekked down to save the crazy’s ass.
The remarkable part was the crazy was fighting one of the warrior women, and was just about to get killed when he decided to yank the pins from his grenade bandoleer and hope for to get the warrior woman in the blast.
He rolled a fucking natural 20 to strike.
Rolling for damage, he was able to kill the warrior woman, and the slaver warped away again.
However, his body was vaporized. The GM let him have his brain, which our medic swooped in and packed into a portable cryo-unit she had on her person to take to a cyborg-shop later.
Damn that was a fun session.
Someday I’ll have to put up a picture of my RIFTS book collection. I don’t give a damn about the rules governing the gameplay, I just love the story.

Our DM had us as a pack of Dogboys… When we got too good at beating down everything he threw at us, he went and pulled Robotech Zentradai on us…. that ended our packs rampage.

That’s just a bad GM. GM/DM could do that kinda crap in any game. In D&D it would be the level 5 party that is steamrolling things getting thrown up against a level 20 Lich or Mind Flayer or Dragon.
