I would like to change my vote

Power Source and Device are required limitations you do not receive points for in Supertech.

Otherwise I approve and think it works.

PS: You may want to look at SFC for a cheaper option that provides a -4 and works versus technology.

maybe it was a was from a old rifts book or from one of the previous editions of TLPG?

Just reread Rifts original and it keeps saying "like a Blood Hound tracking a scent". But then makes it explicitly clear it is a supernatural sense not a sense of smell.

One thing the Naruni are good about it is accepting credits. Working out an agreement the Repobots are willing to accept the security policy and the additional credits, using the Remorseless as collateral and requiring an Oath to commit no violence, or destruction while on Paradise from Power Dump.

Pursuit As a note, while I am in the camp of 99% against Rich being used to justify a Signature Vehicle, no matter when selected.

Very good points Tribe.

I think it is 100% clear. You would have to ignore the normal definition of words to think it includes Rich.

"provided that any vehicle, Power Armor or Robot Armor must be part of a character's Iconic Framework or MARS Framework in order to turn it into a Signature Item"

The whole point of Option 3 is it specifically excludes Vehicles, PA and RA unless they are part of your IF.

Racial edges and Hindrance points are not part of a Iconic Framework, they are separate steps in the creation process.

If someone uses the Rich edge to buy a vehicle at character creation, can it be used for a signature item? I had figured that would fall under #4 (buying the vehicle). I think that would fall under #4. But in the case of a MARS who rolled F&G roll it would be allowed in 3 & 4. As F&G is part of you...

Dang it, who ever voted for four needs to change their vote to 3.

The maybe we should post that somewhere? It doesn’t take much effort and might help someone. “If you would like to earn extra EP, contact your gm or an administrator to see if there are any tasks you can assist with.” blah, blah, blah...

blah blah blah... I imagine it would be much harder to get half of the slots I have, much less a single sig item without being a patron. Not to mention not being able to pay even for extra bennies or the extra little cool bonuses you can snag through EP. If I had stopped getting char slots sooner, ...

While this was brought up in the past it caused a lot of issue, because Patreons usually pay for two things; Extra Character slot, and Signature Items. Without the EP option it becomes a pay-to-win situation instead of pay-to-advance situation which would cause all non-patrons to leave. Right now be...

What was the price delta between the two armors?
Looks like the one he went with is 6,000 credits cheaper.

Cool, lets add 25% of that to starting credits so 1,500

My thing is with Signature items they have a sort of plot immunity to them. For example the 99 have just spent 5 months real time and three battles without most of their awesome gear because I arranged an awesome deal for them by giving them a million credits. While a signature item would not be par...

I do like this resolution and would vote for it.

Switched out the armor for a lesser armor that didn't incurr a strength penalty. After reviewing the Robot Armor rules, writing them into the character sheet.

As I said in the Hangout I think the specific case of the Behemoth I would allow. But i would not let it be modded up and I would only allow it because the Behemoth is a completely non-combat option.

I am inclined to say "gear" refers to personal items.

Hmmm. So technically, a TW item is supposed to use some sort of "technological device" as the base item, although the shadow cloak is an outlier there.

Okay,
So turns out Clint has ruled on this as Transforming takes Size/2 mod slots.

I am going to post and beg some GM's to come look over the robot. One thing I know for certain is the walker form will not have an acceleration but instead only have one pace mode.

Couple notes I think the character overall works. The robot and fighter will need cleaned up. It is pretty maxed out and transforming should at a minimum take a couple mod slots. I will get some more feedback on it from others more skilled in such. Also, I will need a cost for the machine for Mainte...
