DATE: Every Thursday TIME: 7PM EASTERN (Canada, Ontario) START: Depends on how many players I can get and how fast the roster fills up. If it does fast enough, very soon! PLAYERS: Only those committed to learning a new game and having fun! CAMPAIGN SETTING: Heroes that have lost a battle of hell, sent back in time to correct that mistake. FORMAT: Roll20 and Discord (For chat)   Hello everyone. I have been a GM for over 20 years. I have done Rifts and D&D. Most recently I have and still continue to GM D&D 5E. I had an 11 year stretch where I GM’d Rifts. A Palladium Books game system, however, this wasn’t the strict game itself. You see I took the battle system and then created (Homebrewed) 30 classes and 10 races within a homebrewed universe. With worlds like Sherru, The Chill Lands, and others that have been updated, it grew into its own thing. Playing with a group of 6 players at different times, they all really got into the game. Most looked at it like a Warhammer battle system of sorts. I guess that is true. Now, cutting to the chase, I am looking for a few good players that are invested into learning and playing the modified Rifts system. To give you an idea of the game itself, it is a D20 system with percentile rolls. There is no AC, there are defensive rolls in combat. Skills are based around percentile to succeed or fail. Magic or Psychic abilities go by a mana pool. (PPE is the mana pool of points, where psychic is called ISP.) Think of your RPG video game, where you use a spell, subtracting its cost from your mana points. Of course like HP, these recharge over time. Speaking of HP, Rifts has a 3 tier damage system. Whenever you are struck in combat, damage goes in this order: Armor first (Uses AP or Armor Points and has different parts of that armor. Head, arms, legs, ect.) SDC (This is considered an invisible Hero armor.) Think of John Wayne walking into a bar full of 6 tough bad guys. They attack him as Wayne brushes off those punches and then he shines. Once the SDC is gone, then damage goes to HP.) HP – Your standard health, once dropping to 0, the character becomes unconscious. Now, as for the rest of the rules, that will be done in a tutorial done by me. Session 0 will be a sort of class in session. Teaching and learning the system. The players I am looking for are at least 3-4 players. Currently have 2, and would love to have a group of at least 6. If interested to learn a new game, text me.

I also wanted to add: The first campaign will be a short one, learning the game and getting into it. There are 2 other larger campaigns that I am working on. One is a mercenaries have messed up without realizing it and goes from there. The other currently is jumping between a few ideas.
