Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close.
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
Subversives! Enemies of the Coalition!
ReplyDeleteWow! Major nostalgia! I always liked this little guy

Love these illos! The Headhunter's too (and the Headhunter class as well. Kind of mad that RUE introduced a "Mercenary" class distinct from the Headhunter).
ReplyDeleteGustavo Iglesias And it also turned the Headhunter into the "Techno-Warrior" variant from some Rifter issue, or something like that. Man, for something that purportedly was made to clean up Rifts, RUE is a mess.
ReplyDeletePaul Vermeren I consider the Headhunter the "standard" Rifts merc and I used to give PCs the option to swap out the bionics for a suit of power armor or an armed vehicle.
ReplyDeleteAnd doesn't the Techno-Warrior thing, and other variants, come from Rifts Canada?
Gustavo Iglesias Yep, you're right about Rifts Canada. Shows you how much attention I paid to that one.
ReplyDeleteI think the original Headhunter got a vehicle of choice in addition to the bionics, anyway. We always interpreted "vehicle of choice" to mean it could be power armor or robot vehicle if you wanted (and if you had the appropriate Pilot skill). But I'd need to look at the book again to be sure.
Yeah, "vehicle of choice" is a neat loophole, isn't it? I wish I got to play at your table, back in the day all the GM allowed was a crappy Highwayman bike.
ReplyDeleteRifts Canada was after I dropped out of the supplement treadmill so I'm not terribly familiar with it. I'm told the world information is pretty good, though.
Gustavo Iglesias The guy who played the Headhunter in our game decided his "vehicle of choice" was a VR-041 Saber Cyclone from Robotech. Turned out to be a very good choice.
ReplyDeleteWe had Rifts Canada in our pile of stuff but it came out around the time our original campaign was petering out, so it didn't see much (if any) use.
