Palladium RIFTS mod

[XavierCanuck]

Good Day!

I am a huge fan of Civilizations since the original (I'm 31) but have also been a HUGE fan of Palladium Books RIFTS Role Playing Game. While I rarely have time to play RPG's anymore, and only an occassional game of Civ III PTW - I was wondering if anyone knows of any RIFTS mod's that have been developed, or are in development currently?

If there are none currently, I would love to give my two cents about how one should look & feel like, perhaps assist in some small way in it's development or in the case of one already under construction, aid in finalizing and Beta testing the product.

Any takers?

The RIFTS world is FANTASTICALLY developed, and with the recent announcement that a major movie is in development I thought I'd mention it here now and perhaps get the ball rolling.

Never heard of it. What is it?

Post apocalyptic Earth. Bands of magical and psionic energy that criss cross the globe errupted to life in the begining or middle of a massive war in the 21st century. The war saw the use of powered armor, railguns, lasers and other supertech weapons. The coming fo the rifts basically destroyed everything as people around the world over-reacted and sent the planet into a new dark age. Rifts is set 300 years later as human civilization is reappearing.
However, the bands of magical energy, Ley Lines, have opened Rifts into other dimensions and allowed aliens and demons to start roaming the planet. Thankfully, most of the civilizations that are reappearing, and those few that survived in tact, have gained access to magical or high tech weapons.
Some Major Civs:
Coalition States (NA)
New German Republic
Russian Warlords and Sovietski
Perth
Melbourne
Republic of Japan
New Empire (Japan)
2 more smaller ones in Japan, forgot the names
New Navy
Xitcix
Horune
Naruni
Spurgoth
Gargolyes

I just recently started playing. So, if i missed something or screwed something up... sorry. For the civs, there are a ton more. I'm just going from memory, if I opened up the books I've got I could list maybe a dozen more.

People truly want a Civ mod or scenario made for just about anything they can get their hands on anymore...

Why not. The game is so modable that it just begs for it. If only i could help with the unit graphics... I would love to get this mod going.
