Getting together a Rifts group!

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone was interested in starting a game or if anyone had a group that I could join. I am fairly new to roll20 and have had a little experience with Rifts but I would love to get started! Feel free to PM me! 
We've had an ongoing game for about three years now. We play on Roll20, using hangouts for A/V until they get the WebRTC stuff sorted out. The same group also plays a Beyond the Supernatural game. If you're interested, PM me and I'll get you in touch with the GM.
Hey  yeah i've got 2 games i run  Ones Heroes and Horror a Hightech H.u. game on thursdays and the others a Space Game.The Epic mess on Saturdays. I'm also looking to actually play a game or two as a p.c. lol.
I run a Dead Reign Nightbane mashup on Saturday and a Nightbane game on Sunday if you are interested in joining with room for more.
I would love to play HU or Rifts, but I have a cruddy work/life schedule. Cut my teeth on Palladium, makes me sad to not see it come up very often 
Would love to get into a full on Rifts game...My 1st games were in Palladium Fantasy RPG 2nd ed. I have every single book to date for that...and a good start into the RIFTS books ( yet to get a single game of that in)...My free days are Weds and Sats...Mondays and Fridays are hit and miss...I am in USA Pa. EST. I also play D&D 5th ed. I'm interested in getting into Symbaroum too if anyone plays. As well as Shadow of the Demon Lord...and Werewolf the Apocalypse and the Burning Wheel. Just tossing those other games out there incase anyone plays or has a game with an opening. 😁
I would like to get in a game myself with maybe an Amazon or Ninjaborg if possible.
Yeah those are tight class's with lots of flexibility
I'd enjoy a full on rifts game i think; never played but got close to playing before the group went nuclear (friends suing friends does that). So, if someone could help this Rifts noob with a game, that'd be just swell. Was thinking of a Kill-Cat or some other mutant R.C.C.
yeah the mutants are some of the most fun 
We got a Chaos Earth game going on...
Hi All, I'm pretty much in the same boat as Mike. I'm new to Roll20 and Rifts but would love to join a regular group. My schedule is a bit limited, however, and I'd only be available to play Friday and Saturday evenings from 7PM-12AM (EDT). Please feel free to post or send a PM if interested. Thanks!

Would you be interested in a biweekly game? I know of a couple (one EO Friday, other is EO Saturday) that might be looking for new players.

Please feel free to reach out with further details.

(D.W.G.) said: *site link removed by Sabrina*. for all most all Rifts books on pdf...and many other games Really? You're gonna post a pirate site when Palladium has finally gotten around to offering LEGAL PDFs of most of their books? *smh*
Sabrina A. said: (D.W.G.) said: Nobody said YOU to use it.... I puchased all of the book in paperback. So I dont need it. So why bite my head off for offering somethin to someone else who would? Sites been up for years. So jump me for sharing something that for the most part is common knowledge? Really? I also purchased the books in paperback, no few of them multiple times because they wore out. But regardless if the site's been up for years - it was one thing when there wasn't a way to get the PDF except piracy. But that's not the case now. Guess it's just the editor part of me that knows how piracy hurts authors. Sabrina, There're valid points to both sides of the argument. As a freelance writer and editor, I'd typically side with your view in a heartbeat. What D.W.G. has to say bears some consideration, however. I'm really just using the free PDFs to get my feet wet, so to speak. If I can find a group sincerely interested in playing, I'll definitely spend the money on hard copies. Shuffling through PDF pages is brutal when it comes to RPGs, especially a game like Rifts that's admittedly a bit more complex than some titles out there. That and there's just something undeniably better about having a paper copy of a rulebook or sourcebook in my hands; especially when it comes to artwork and color plates. All the best, Bob

The books are worth it. When you concider the used pricing of them on a site such Amazon....you can get a few books for as little 20 bucks. Not Amazon specifically...but, the. "Mom & Pop" sellers. Who sell through there site. Anything I have ordered from Amazon directly has arrived damaged because of the cheap way they package their products. The used books from the book store sellers are wraped and packaged far better than how Amazon just throws them in a box with a little bubble wrap. Where as the Small sellers actually place and wrap their products with care and have actually just sent me a replacement without the hassle of sending damaged books back at my own cost. Just my xp with them. But, so numerous I felt it worth mentioning. 
Fair points by both of you. I have heard different stats about purchase after obtaining elsewhere, but many players do still like paper format.
This is piracy folks. It is illegal and can get roll20 in trouble. Also the poster and hoster. After having seen it on the other thread, now here also and thinking about it for a while. I am reporting it to the proper peoples.

Uh trying to get the thread back...I'd be interested in playing..though it depends on setting/power level. Are we all coalition grunts?  Psyscape? Mages?  Glitter-boys?  Hodge-podge independents? Face..er Mind melters?  EDIT: Ideally I'd prefer the group to be more or less operating at the same power level.  I have found that some folks do not enjoy playing John Q. Normal, hot dog vendor, when the rest of the players are the Avengers :)
 Yeah i run a few games on roll20,  i kinda have the  i'm of 2 minds thing as a g.m.  and player  i have most of the palladium books (and can provide photographic or video proof of that but if you were gaming with me in person you would be able to use my library of books but if we're playing online you would be completely prevented from that. Which means you wouldn't be able to encourage others to join or learn  the system with out the pdf's.. Kinda damned if you do damned if you dont..
