A Coalition plot fools a number of innocent people into undergoing Juicer
augmentation. When the lies are revealed, a Juicer army rises up to lay siege to
the CS city of Newtown. Chaos erupts as Juicers, bandits and outlaws ravage
the countryside. Action packed adventure and source material!
Highlights Include:
• New types of Juicer O.C.C.s, including the Hyperion speed-demon,
the giant Titan with his supernatural strength, the mysterious Mega-
Juicer, and the Dragon Juicer (dependent on the blood of dragons to
sustain his powers)!
• The Juicer O.C.C., developed and expanded; the motivations behind
these suicidal warriors, and the process and effects of being "juiced"
completely described.
• The Prometheus Treatment: Immortality for the Juicers or a Coalition
lie?
• More world information about North America, Newtown, Fort El
Dorado and hints of things to come.
• Written by C.J. Carella with concepts by Siembieda.
For those delving into the Rifts Megaverse, this is perhaps one of the best supplement books to pick up.
It's based upon one of the Character Classes (Juicers), but there is much more. There is "fluff" text (stories, roleplaying suggestions, adventure hooks) as well as "crunchy bits" (a plethora of alternate juicers, including Techno-Wizard creations and alternate skill packages). The storyline, as it interacts with the Rifts megaplot, applies to parties that lack a juicer as much as an all-juicer party would, with an adventure that an inexperienced GM would be able to use.
