Another Rifts Bundle - Land and Sea

Don't know if this is the last of these or there are more to come:

( Rifts Land and Sea )

This appears to include some new material, but I don't know if it's new or new editions. Rifts fans can probably judge for themselves.

More PDF Conversions?

While it was quite a lot of work I quite enjoyed doing the PDF conversion of FF4, and I think I've added some fun stuff to it. I'm now thinking about trying to do more, probably in the new year.

So far the game material that already exists in PDF form is the following:

Forgotten Futures Rules
Forgotten Futures Introductory Adventure - Taking the Tunnel. There was a problem with the link to the PDF which has now been fixed.
The Forgotten Futures Compendium
Forgotten Futures IV - The Carnacki Cylinders
Forgotten Futures X - The Tooth and Claw Role Playing Game - a licensed game based on Jo Walton's novel
Forgotten Futures XI - Perilous Planets - Stanley Weinbaum's SF

The ones I HAVEN'T done are the following:

Forgotten Futures I - The A.B.C. Files - Kipling's SF. The pro is that it's small and only has one adventure, and that I've already converted the fiction to PDF. The con is that it would need a disproportionate amount of work since I've made lots of changes to the rules in nearly 30 years, would probably want to rewrite the airship construction sequence completely, etc. etc.

Forgotten Futures II - The Log of the Astronef - George Griffith's interplanetary SF. Much bigger, but possibly needing fewer major changes.

Forgotten Futures III - George E. Challenger's Mysterious World. Based on The Lost World and the other Professor Challenger stories. Needs some work, and I really DON'T want to do the fiction part since The Land of Mist is DREADFUL... On the other hand I do have all of the illos from at least the first two novels now, and I think most of the rest will be in the Strand Magazine files at archive.org

Forgotten Futures V - Goodbye Piccadilly. Lots of adventures and settings with the common theme of the destruction of London or other changes to the place. Probably not difficult to convert, and it does feature a very silly giant monster attack. No, not actually Kitten Kong, but close...

Watch on YouTube

Forgotten Futures VI - Victorian Villainy - Adventures with extra melodrama, including dramatic monologues and asides to the audience. And lots of villainy, of course. No especial problems except that there's a LOT of source material of varying quality and the conversion would be a bit of a pain.

Forgotten Futures VII - Tsar Wars - Based on George Griffith's The Angel of the Revolution and Olga Romanoff or The Syren of the Skies, a tale of revolution sweeping the world and anarchy triumphant. Can't see any huge problems, and I may be able to reuse some of the original game art rather than having to redo everything.

Forgotten Futures VIII - Fables and Frolics - based on Five Children and It and other Nesbit fiction. I think that the art is now out of copyright (it wasn't when I originally wrote this so I had to roll my own)  and I'd have to hunt down the originals since I never scanned them, but again I think all of the relevant issues of The Strand Magazine are on line at Archive.org so that's not a huge problem.

Forgotten Futures IX - It's my own invention - a bit of a departure and more steampunk than most of the others, four game settings based on common SF / Scientific Romance ideas:
Flight and a war against the supernatural with The Queen's Own Aerial Hussars
Automata (useful, deadly, or whatever) and a global conspiracy with Swiss Movement
A race to the moon in The Space Bubble
and time travel, with the smallest possible time machine a 2400 ton steamship, in Past Out, Future Home
Nothing particularly difficult about this one, I think, and again the art may be reusable.

So if you were me, and bearing in mind that I'm not actually earning money from this, which would you tackle next?
