“I'm sure that most of the people buying this book already have some idea of what Role-playing is all about, so I'm not going to bore you with some lengthy explanation or history of Role-playing.”
—Kevin Siembieda, Palladium Fantasy RPG 1983

Bold assumption, but probably true most of the time. A lot of games poorly explained what an RPG is. KS doesn’t even try.

I still have a fondness for Palladium RPGs, but I mostly only collect them these days using the annual holiday bundle. I’m unlikely to actually use the system, but they are fun books to mine for ideas.

I got the two Rifts China books, and two fantasy books, Balgor Wastes and Eastern Kingdoms.

It does make me think about what system I would use if I were to run something in the setting.

From a conversation on discord, I always kinda wondered why Palladium RPGs don’t have a retro clone, but I think the answer is: it’s never been out of print (TMNT and Robotech licenses excepted).

I actually played more Palladium Fantasy than AD&D when I was young.

But Kevin is still putting out the same games 40 years later.

Keep me in your thoughts. I signed up for a Palladium Fantasy 2e campaign. Character creation is too much.

I am loving #TerminatorRPG and the #SLAIndustries system it's based on, but I normally prefer fantasy games.

D&D was my favorite game for thirty years. I reckon it's going to take a fair bit of time before I'll know what's taking its place.

Right now I'm on a buying/reading rampage across pre-2000 non-TSR fantasy RPGs. #RuneQuest, #Earthdawn, #PalladiumFantasy
