#94 – Rifts Inspiration from Marvel's Avengers

Join us for a fun thought experiment, in which we take the
characters from Marvel's Avengers (primarily the MCU versions)
and use them as root inspirations for a similarly-focused
adventurer team in the Rifts role-playing game. We are very
specifically not just re-creating them in the system, but instead
looking through the Rifts catalog for options to create
characters using those heroes as thematic templates. Included is
a deeper discussion on how the seeming lack of balance in the
game can actually work in the story at your table just as well as
it would an Avengers movie.


Drop us a line! You can follow us on Twitter and Facebook, and
we'd love to see you on our Discord Channel too. And let us know
your thoughts by leaving a review on iTunes! For even more info
and options, check out our main website or our low-bandwidth
alternative feed site.
