[Sneak Attack Press] Broken Earth: Ludington
Author: Jason Owen Black
Artist: Joyce Maureira
Pages: 8
Price: €1,59 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)

After the apocalypse, a cult called the Northern Light made it their holy mission to keep the lighthouse in Ludington running. A village of survivors settled in the shadow of the lighthouse. Ludington offers a safe port from the storm, but danger encroaches the town from every side. Mutant animals and carnivorous plants lurk in woods, bandits have taken the only road out of town, and fish people lurk off shore.

Ludington is set in the Broken Earth setting, but with a little work can be used with any post-apocalyptic campaign.

Hellfrost Atlas – Designer Diary 1

I’ve decided to write a bit of a diary of my cartographic progress on the atlas!

For the techies out there I am using photoshop and a graphics tablet to draw the map by hand – no cheats here!

First off it is a big project, in fact huge to tackle and after many tests and much planning I’ve decided to split the world into several regions. The main reason for this is due to the scale we are using and the details going into the maps, working on the whole world as a single file would certainly crash photoshop if not my humble pc!

After the map tests I have done I’ve found that separating different landscape features into types helps to progress a map. Its a daunting proposition when you sit down to a blank document and have to begin filling in the detail! Especially with a world as detailed as rassilon. So I begin with the coastline and I am using the original rassilon map as drawn by Justin Russell as a guide but adding so much more detail. So with the coastline I add plenty of Islands, estuaries and rivers. Once this is done I then turn my attention to mountains and hills. Other features such as marshlands and grasslands follow. I gradually build up the map in layers adding colour and detail. The final step will be to add the names.

Part of my plan is not only to include all the features from the original gazetteer but also details as described from the region guides – plus some of my own inventions with minor rivers, lakes, woods and hills being added. These won’t be mentioned in the text because only the really important information can be imparted in the text due to the limits in space. However as players traverse the landscape of rassilon they’ll be able to identify features from these new maps that have never been described before!

Here is a snapshot and a small part of the first section drawn from my studio:



I’m not going to let you know what region this is though – feel free to guess!

I’ll be bringing more designer diary updates as I work on this on the run up to Christmas!

[Fabled Environments] Fearsome Critters: Cake Walk
Author: John Beattie
Artist: T. Jordan Peacock
Pages: 37
Price: €6,00 €4,00 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)


Welcome to North Sandalwood. We hope that you enjoy your time working for the town as a member of the Special Animal Control Unit. Your job is to deal with various animals such as dogs, cats, raccoons and the occasional exotic pet that get loose. You offer a vital service to the members of this town and we are grateful that you have decided to join the team!

Your latest assignment is to check out the Golden Creme Delights factory. There have been reports of critters that have been skittering around the factory at night. These creatures are responsible for damage in the factory and they must be captured before the current owners can sell the building.

About the Module

Cake Walk is the ironic name of a new adventure for Savage Worlds written by John Beattie (Weird Wars Rome: Wellspring) and artwork by Jordan Peacock (Wonderland No More, Savage Worlds: Deluxe, Interface Zero and artwork for many other projects).

In this adventure, PCs take on the seemingly mundane role of animal control officers, but when they respond to a complaint of an animal infestation at a local sweet goods factory they end up facing something that is neither mundane nor an animal.

Apart from the Savage Worlds ruleset, dice and a pencil, everything you would need to play this adventure is included such as pregens, figure flats, a map of the facility and even adventure seeds to take this from a one-shot adventure to a campaign.

Der Klappentext:

Piraten, Plünderungen und Abenteuer in den eisigen Fluten des Kristallstroms!

Der Kristallstrom ist die Lebensader des Kristallstrombündnisses. Jeden Tag segeln hunderte von Schiffen und Kähnen durch die turbulenten Gewässer, um an seinem Lauf Waren zu kaufen und zu verkaufen. Aber der Handel ebbt ab und die Flussschiffer sind verängstigt.

Mehrere Schiffe wurden ohne Besatzung und Fracht gefunden. Es kursieren Gerüchte, aber fast jeder vermutet hinter den Problemen Piraten.

Die Helden werden von einem ortsansässigen Händler angeheuert, der Sache nachzugehen. Sie müssen nach Brückwasser, einer belebten Handelsstadt am nördlichen Ende der Handelsroute. Nur ihre vorsichtigen Ermittlungen und kräftige Waffenarme können den Piraten des Kristallstroms ein Ende bereiten!

Piraten des Kristallstroms ist das dritte Abenteuer für das epische Fantasysetting Hellfrost, einer Erweiterung für das preisgekrönte Rollenspiel Savage Worlds. In Ergänzung des englischen Originals wurde der Band um das exklusive Kurzabenteuer Phantom der Sümpfe von Moritz Mehlem erweitert.

[Fabled Environments] Blueprint For Imagination: Canned Food
Author: Darre G. Miller
Artist: Krista White
Pages: 10
Price: €1,62 PDF, €2,83 Bundle (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)

Something doesn't seem quite right about Pinnacle Airlines Flight 121. Passengers aboard the "red eye" flight from Los Angeles to New York have complained of fatigue, headaches and dizziness following their flight. Officials have concluded that these symptoms are simply the result of jet lag and stress experienced by over worked business travelers. The strangest occurrence on the aircraft has to be the recent death of one passenger who decided to jump out of the aircraft without a parachute while at cruising altitude. However, the aircraft and crew have been cleared to resume normal operations.

What is really going on aboard Flight 121?

Canned Food is a modern horror adventure and the first short adventure in the Blueprint For Imagination line. Canned Food uses the Passenger Jets floorplan from Fabled Environments. Blueprint For Imagination adventures are short modules designed to be played on their own in just a few hours with your local gaming group, at a game store or at a gaming convention. We hope you enjoy this great adventure!

Yuletide comes!

We've gained a fair few followers this year, so we have dusted off some of our favorite Hellfrost carols and poems. We begin on a dark note with a song survivors of Lair of the Vermin Lord can sing along with.

Ode to Dunross
To the tune of "O Little Town of Bethlehem"

O little village of Dunross
How still we see thee lie
Above thy burnt and corpse-filled streets
The silent stars go by
A black tide doomed your people
The rats they brought you death
But for your souls we daily pray
To Scaetha and to Veth

The vermin were defeated
The righteous fight was won
Your village it may be no more
But its memory shall live on
Freelanders mourn together
Though you we barely knew
And the with blessing of Eostre
Dunross will rise anew

In the next Yuletide Hellfrost offering, we present a prayer to Sigel.

Delling Day
To the tune of "Silent Night"

Delling Day, holy day
Through the night, vigilant we stay
Lit torches form holy symbol
Song and praise from mortals they flow
Rise O Sigel we pray
Rise O Sigel we pray

Delling Day, holy day
Come the dawn’s first pale ray
Fire arrows are lit by Kenaz
To the heavens they fly like stars
Renew the light of Sigel
Renew the light of Sigel

Delling Day, holy day
See the stars start to fade
Radiant beams cast from Sigel’s Hearth
With a new dawn to dispel the dark
Sigel, he is reborn
Sigel, he is reborn

• Descriptions of more than 25 gods and their lackeys, their tactics, and their weaknesses – including Great Cthulhu himself

Now abandoned by all but its automated security systems and enigmatic caretakers, its workings are oddly twisted and jealous, meting out reward and punishment in equal measure.

Scientorium is a setting book for The Last Parsec. It contains new locations and characters for the epic journey to find Scientorium, new Setting Rules for the library’s many wonders, a Plot Point Campaign, Savage Tales, and detailed insight into the world of the reclusive Librarians.
