#57 – A Look at the Rifts 30th Anniversary Limited Edition Hardcover

Since both of us recently acquired copies of the super-limited black-and-gold Rifts 30th Anniversary hardback edition, we're here (nominally) to review the overall book and its new content. In actuality we spend most of the time waxing nostalgic on how awesome the original content really is. Turns out neither of us had looked through the original Butts Edition in a lot longer than we remembered! If you also got your hands on one of these, drop into Discord and let us know your number!

#56 – Inspirational Fiction for Rifts

We're back to talk about inspirational fiction for helping you get into the "Rifts mindset!" When running any new RPG campaigns, we find that it can be super helpful to immerse yourself in as much relevant and tangential fiction as possible. Give us a listen to hear some of our favorites, and then write in and tell us your own suggestions!

Sorry this one is a couple of days late! We had a breakdown with our internal file-sharing system that took a bit of time to work out, but it looks like all is back in order.

#55 – Intro to RECON

Just Jacob's guest run with us concludes (for now) with a guided look into one of the "oddities" among the Palladium catalog: RECON, the RPG of the Vietnam War. This one is interesting in that it is _not_ part of the usual Megaversal system that connects most of their games. If you're interested in learning more about it, give us a listen!

#52 – Intro to Heroes Unlimited

After a lot of listener requests, we're again taking a look at other Palladium RPG properties. Since there is a handful of them that the two of us are sadly not as well-versed in, we've invited our friend and fellow Breakfast Puppy host "Just Jacob" to join and talk about them. First on the list is Heroes Unlimited, Palladium's classic take on superhero comics-style role-playing.

We've made it to episode 50! Huzzah! To celebrate we're doing a longer episode, talking about the default villains of the Rifts RPG: the Coalition States.

Listen in as we talk about our takes on the faction, their core classes, and ways to involve them in campaigns.
