   Episode 9 - The Burbs Are the Real Heart of RIFTS

   The Burbs outside Chi-Town are where millions of people live, work, trade, hide, struggle, and wait for a chance at something better. They are packed with mercenaries, D-Bees, psychics, criminals, Black Market operators, Coalition patrols, refugees, adventurers, and ordinary people trying to survive beneath the shadow of one of the most powerful cities in North America.In this episode of Railguns & Dragons, Vince looks at why the Burbs may be the real heart of RIFTS, what everyday life looks like outside Chi-Town, why the Coalition tolerates these chaotic settlements, and why they might be one of the best places to start a RIFTS campaign.

   Episode 8 - New to RIFTS? Start Here #3 - Magic Returns

   In this episode, we continue our New to RIFTS? Start Here series by exploring one of the defining moments in the history of the Megaverse: the return of magic during the Great Cataclysm. We’ll talk about why humanity had forgotten magic ever existed, how the detonation of nuclear weapons over ley lines unleashed unimaginable amounts of mystical energy, and why ordinary people had absolutely no idea what they were witnessing. This isn’t just the story of wizards. It’s the story of an entire civilization discovering that everything it believed about reality was wrong. https://railgunsanddragons.com
