Phase World is an incredible transdimensional city that is also a space port located at the edge of three galaxies. This means that visitors come not only from other dimensions but from the... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I read it through and through four times, it is an excellent book, with colorful details, and storyline. Though it did lack content in certain areas, I found it to be very interesting with the new cultures and weapons. Though not for everyone, Phase World definately tickled my fancy.
the best Rifts scourcebook out there

This is my favorite of the rifts books. The story is great and there is almost no magic, its all psionics. The weapons are really powerfull and the character classes are truly magnificent. The cosmo knights are some of the most powerfull playable OCC's (is anyone reminded of Teknoman?) and could probably last a while against a splugorth. The RCC's are great too and theres lots of items and mecha to choose from, including a mech with a main body of 3000 with the force field. The phase powers are great and are fun to spring on unsuspecting characters, especially when they're not supposed to be able to use them! I suggest this book more than any other out there.
One of the Better Rifts Books.

In this book you will find a host of new races, new combat armor (of all types). Two types totally new weapons. Phase weapons which can fire through any non-magic power armor. And a totaly new type of rail gun based on gravity rather than electromagnets (see rifts source book). Allso this book includes a full set of skills and rules for space travel. As if that were not enough it includes a new catagory of psionics dealing with the new "phase" tech. With this new type of psionics you can teleport fire bolts of phase energy (which can pass through power armor!), and a whole range of other things. All in all this is a good book, if you are running the game, I will give you a word of warning, putting this in your game will swing the power level WAY UP if you don't keep track of what your doing! Have Fun!
