Das offizielle Endergebnis der Abenteuer-Umfrage steht fest.
Lange Zeit sah es so aus, als würden wir uns in die unerforschten Tiefen des Weltalls begeben um Abenteuer zu erleben. Aber schlussendlich stand euch der Sinn dann doch mehr nach gegenwärtigem, weltlichem um nicht zu sagen Modernem Horror.


Wir danken allen Beteiligten für ihr Feedback.

Bleibt savage!

Game Geeks #224 Savage Worlds: Science Fiction Companion

Damit das Warten bis Dienstag Nacht nicht so lange dauert...

[TAG] Hellfrost LoF Realm Guide #6: The Heart of Fire
Author: Paul "Wiggy" Wade-Williams
Pages: 12
Prices: €2,58 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)

In the center of Al-Shirkuh lies a burning wasteland of choking ash, boiling mud pools, chocking sulfur, scorching winds, and rivers of bubbling lava. In the core lies a vast crater, fed by lava rivers, its heat the enemy of flesh, its glow a beacon that illuminates the desert for countless leagues. Never conquered, it is home only to fire giants, elemental beings, and a handful of hardy orc tribes. This is the Heart of Fire, the nearest thing to the elemental realm of fire mortals can explore. It is an arid, lifeless realm that offers no pity to the weak.

Inside you’ll find:

• Expanded information on the cult of Geb-Agni (god of earth and fire), including major festivals.
• Information of the creation of the fiery realm, its fire giant ruler, King Surtur, and its many perils.
• 6 new locations to explore and two major NPCs to encounter.
• 3 minor deities.
• 5 new monsters, including the fearsome lava dragon and choking soulfur cloud.

Seit Jahren steht die Mini-Kampagne in und um das Städtchen Socanth für den Einstieg in Savage Worlds. Vor einem generischen, und damit leicht zugänglichen, Fantasy-Hintergrund erläutern die Abenteuer nicht nur die Grundregeln von Savage Worlds, sondern zeigen auch einige Anwendungsmöglichkeiten von speziellen Regel, wie bspw. der Verfolgungsjagdregeln.

Im Rahmen dessen, hat sich die Kampagne zu einem echten”Fan-Favorite” entwickelt, weshalb wir im Rahmen der Fanfinanzierungsaktion eine Erweiterung der Kampagne angekündigt hatten.
Bevor wir uns dieser aber widmen können, mussten wir zunächst eine Basis schaffen.
Beispielsweise waren die Abenteuer der Socanth-Kampagne regeltechnisch noch auf dem Stand der Savage Worlds Gentlemen’s Edition von 2009. Das Abenteuer Trollfutter setzte sogar auf einem anderen Regelkern auf.
Bis jetzt

.



Phil und Birger, denen wir an dieser Stelle noch einmal unseren Dank für die fantastische Arbeit aussprechen möchten, haben sich der vier Akte der Kampagne angenommen und diese überarbeitet. Alle Abenteuer sind jetzt auf dem Stand der Gentlemen’s Edition Revised, auch Trollfutter. Es gibt weitere Regelerläuterungen und sogar eine kurze Settingbeschreibung inklusive mystischer Wälder, massiver Gebirge und kilometerweiter Steppen.
Das alles wurde in einem PDF zusammen gefasst, das Birger optisch so sehr aufgemotzt hat, dass es einem die Socken auszieht.

Ich möchte euch das Gesamtwerk nicht weiter vorenthalten.

Socanth überarbeitet, als ein PDF (30 MB)

Viel Spaß in Socanth und bleibt savage!

Marcel

P.S: Kritik, Lob und Feedback ist im offiziellen Sammelforum zu Socanth sehr gerne gesehen

There are places far beyond the familiar bounds of Earth. Some lie twinkling in the distant starfields, waiting to be discovered by intrepid explorers or conquered by legions of space marines. Others are just around the corner in time, a near future where hovertanks race across blasted battlefields, cyberware replaces organic limbs, and robots serve humanity—or attempt to annihilate it.

The Savage Worlds Science Fiction Companion contains new races, Edges and Hindrances, Setting Rules, gear, cyberware, and numerous strange creatures from across the galaxy. It also includes detailed but simple rules for players and Game Masters to create their own robots, power armor, vehicles, starships, walkers and more to travel to the stars…and beyond!

The Science Fiction Companion requires the Savage Worlds core rules to play.

Add Shipping Cost to Germany for any physical order: $20,45

It takes more than a cape and a costume to be a hero. It takes guts, determination, and the willingness to sacrifice. It takes even more to be a super hero. For with these amazing powers comes the responsibility to stand up to the greatest evils, protect the oppressed, and occasionally, save the world.

…or rule it!

The Savage Worlds Super Powers Companion (Second Edition) contains new Edges and Hindrances, Setting Rules like Death & Defeat and Power Stunts, gear, rules for headquarters, a rogue’s gallery of insidious villains, and of course a host of streamlined super powers ready for action.

This is a new edition of the Super Powers Companion. It’s a comprehensive update of the original with significant new material. Soon after it debuts, we’ll have a free list of the most important changes for owners of the original edition.

The Super Powers Companion requires the Savage Worlds core rules to play.

Note: Super Powers Companion (Second Edition) Free Villain Supplement

The Savage Worlds Super Powers Companion (Second Edition) has significant new powers, Setting Rules, and abilities, so some of the villains from the original edition didn’t make it into the latest version. We’ll have a free update soon with all those villains and their updated powers for those who’d like to use them in their campaigns.

The PDF is available for immediate download.

Hallo miteinander,

da der letzte Zwischenstand zur Fanfinanzierung vor einem Monat veröffentlicht wurde, hier nun ein weiteres Update.

Die Taschenausgabe befindet sich im Druck und sollte damit Mitte bis Ende Februar erscheinen. Das PDF, inklusive Lesezeichen, ist bereits im Shop eingebunden.

Bei der GER warten wir im Moment auf Karten für zwei der neuen Onesheets. Dann kann das PDF vervollständigt werden. Das Vervollständigen der Taschenausgabe hat ungefähr 10 Tage gedauert. Ich rechne bei der GER mit ähnlichen Zeiträumen.

Der Kreaturenband von Hellfrost befindet sich leider immer noch im Layout. Es gab einige Verzögerungen, die sich am besten mit dem Faktor Mensch beschreiben lassen (Krankheitsfälle, Überstunden etc.). Wir rechnen aber in Kürze mit dem finalen PDF und halten euch natürlich auf dem Laufenden.

Eine weitere Sache: Es wurde angeregt, dass den Vorbestellern die Informationen zu den aktuellen Zwischenständen per E-Mail zugesandt werden. Wir finden die Idee ebenfalls gut und werden das ab sofort so tun. Ein entsprechendes Rundschreiben wird gerade vorbereitet.
Falls ihr die Informationen nicht per E-Mail bekommen wollt, antwortet uns einfach auf die erste Mail. In Zukunft lassen wir euch dann außen vor.

Bleibt savage!

Marcel
