This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

And it's getting a reprint, so should be even easier to come by.

Scraypers was another one of Palladium's odd side settings that I liked alot. Sci-fi Superheroes vs alien invaders.

Scraypers was hurt by being developed as a Heroes Unlimited supplement and turned into a RIFTS Dimension Book because those sold better.  You can almost hear the book creak under the weight of the M.D.C.

I have promised myself to do the necessary conversions back to Heroes Unlimited for a campaign but have yet to do so.

Systems Failure is now available in a limited print run on Palladium Books' store here.  I just ordered two copies.

Palladium is having its annual Christmas Grab Bag and if you wanted to introduce Systems Failure to your crew, you might want to get a copy for everyone in your group as holiday gifts. The book is $23 each, but the Grab Bag is $46 and you could get 4 copies of Systems Failure as your goodies. Just tell Santa Kevin you are starting up a SF campaign and want everyone to have a book. He'd be thrilled.

As for the actual game, I've highly recommended it in the past and that hasn't changed. I'd run Systems Failure over any zombie apocalypse game. In Systems Failure, you get all the post-apoc madness of a fallen modern world, but with swarms of giant semi-sentient bugs.

Mix it with Dead Reign and you get Zombies as well.

The Systems Failure bugs also make great Rifts monsters.
