  1. Stars Without Number System Mechanics | Worlds of Palladium

    4D AGO

    Stars Without Number System Mechanics | Worlds of Palladium

    Stars Without Number character creation gets real in Part 3 as we lock in foci, finish your final touches, and then read through the core system mechanics so you can run the game clean and play with confidence. If your builds feel “fine” but never shine at the table, this session fixes that—fast, practical, and focused on decisions that actually matter in play. Then Heathendog brings a firsthand report from the Detroit Historical Museum’s Worlds of Palladium exhibit, including what stood out during the walkthrough and the biggest takeaways from Kevin Siembieda’s 45-minute speech. If you want smarter Stars Without Number character creation and a rare behind-the-scenes look at Palladium’s legacy, show up live, ask questions, and jump into the conversation.

    Stars Without Number Character Creation + Percentile Dice

    Stars Without Number character creation gets easier when you know what to pick and why. In Part 1 (attributes & skills) and Part 2 (background & character classes), we walk the process step by step so your next PC feels focused, playable, and ready for a sandbox campaign. Then we tighten up percentile dice at the table: roll-under for quick pass/fail clarity, followed by the FASERIP column shift method for clean modifiers and fast reads. If you want fewer stalls, fewer “wait, how does this work?” moments, and more confident calls, this stream delivers the tools. Jump in live, ask your questions, and leave with Stars Without Number character creation and percentile dice handled the right way—hit play and stay for the full breakdown.

    Alternity Character Creation + Rifter 31 Deep Dive

    Alternity Character Creation + Rifter 31 Deep Dive Tonight we tackle Alternity character creation step-by-step so you can build a clean, table-ready hero without missing the small choices that snowball later. I’ll walk through the process in plain language, explain why each decision matters, and show you how to avoid the classic traps that slow a session down. Then we shift into The Rifter 31 with a focused spotlight on two standout articles: “Rooms with a Skew,” featuring the Seven Dread Micro Wizards of Chaos—evil children with a Saw-style dungeon twist—and “Rifts: Phase World—Sunhammer Consolidated Freightways, Ltd.,” a freight company your character can work for with “Futurama in Rifts” energy and campaign hooks. If you want Alternity character creation you can actually run at the table, plus Rifts-ready ideas you can steal for your next session, join the livestream and bring your questions—watch live and don’t miss the best context and chat-driven follow-ups.

    Alternity RPG Skills & Combat + Dice Pool Mechanics

    This Alternity RPG skill system deep dive shows you how checks and combat actions really run at the table.

Then we will compare dice pool rolling mechanics across major tabletop RPG styles: Variable Target Number (Shadowrun), Fixed Target Number & Count Successes (Classic World of Darkness, Year Zero Engine), and Fixed Target Number with a Single Success (WEG Star Wars RPG). You will walk away able to explain what each method does to tension, pacing, and player agency.

    JAN 5

    Alternity Dice System Deep Dive + The Rifter 30

    Today we break down the Alternity dice system by showing how the Control Die and Situation Die interact, then we connect it to the action system so your rulings stay fast, fair, and consistent. You will leave with a cleaner way to call modifiers and keep initiative and actions per round moving, especially when the Alternity dice system feels unclear at the table. We also review The Rifter #30 from Palladium Books, including a skill-based “superstar” advancement angle and additional demons that can sharpen a Rifts: Chaos Earth campaign. Hit play, bring your edge cases, and upgrade your next session.

    Palladium Rulings-First System Explained Live

    This livestream breaks down the Palladium rulings-first system so you can see how it actually plays at the table. Join Kevin Siembieda and Sean Owen Roberson as we cover Palladium news, TMNT & Other Strangeness Redux updates, and what “framework, not lawbook” really means when the dice hit the table. We will unpack how a game master makes judgment calls in a cinematic Palladium session, how danger and advancement feel when rulings come before rules, and why opposed d20 rolls and percentile skills make the Palladium rulings-first system so intuitive and fun at the player-information level. If you want to run or play Palladium in the spirit it was designed, and learn how to explain that style to groups used to tightly codified rules, do not miss this one—watch live, bring your questions, and be part of the conversation. 👍 Like, subscribe & share, share, share.
