I like to tease #PalladiumBooks, but as I've said before, they're an important part of both my personal #TTRPG history and #Detroit nerd history. They deserve the exhibit the Detroit Historical Museum is giving them. This is the kind of story local museums are supposed to tell!

New to me RPG - The Mechanoid Invasion Trilogy - It contains all three source books from the original game, about fighting alien cyborgs on a far off planet. This is the 2015 special printing.
Fortunately for me, #HeroesUnlimited is still in print, and the #PalladiumBooks website even has an errata page for the rulebook... where they misspell "errata."
Yep, same old Palladium! Pride of Detroit, right there!
I'm currently signed up to play #ADnD and #HeroesUnlimited at U-Con 2025, so I figured I better reread the rulebooks before the con.
Turns out I don't own a copy of Heroes Unlimited. Oops! Is it still in print? You can never be sure with #PalladiumBooks.

Yes loved them both!
Side note:
About 87 i started borrowing my friend's black and white tmnt comics, and they were great. But imo the best part of that whole saga is the rpg!

Ps- road hogs, etc all the supplemental games! And nice game mechanics too. #palladiumbooks
Now I'm just rambling #everythingisconnected (to #PalladiumBooks, apparently), so I'll stop.
Gary Reed, by the way, eventually closed or sold all of his stores. The Dearborn store became Green Brain Comics, which is still the best #comicbook shop in Wayne County. I'm getting old, but life goes on.
