Deadlands Explorer's Edition Character Sheet Now Available

The awfully purty full-color character sheet from Deadlands: Explorer's Edition is ready for you. But wait…did I just hear you ask for more? More it is, then!

The character sheet comes in both stunning full color and easy-printing black and white, all in one handy layered file! Both versions were lovingly crafted by also-very-purty three-time Hugo Award-winning artist Cheyenne Wright!

I hear some "still not enough" mumbles in the back over there. How about the Explorer's Edition sizing? The 6.5" x 9" size is ready to be trimmed to fit with your Explorer's Edition products, printed at letter-size, or even put two-to-a-page! The options are all yours in the print dialog window.

I can't believe some of you are still asking for more. How about a form-fillable PDF? That's right, use your reader to fill in the character sheet and even save it with the data in it. Go to town, amigos, go to town.

Even though I finally seem to have won you all over, there's one more coin in the wishin' well. Like everything on downloads page, it's completely free and just waiting for you to pluck it out of the ether. Enjoy!

Das Bild hat Shane gerade auf Facebook gepostet und lässt raten wofür das sein könnte.

Hat was von Römern im Finsterwald (uiii... Baumhirten! )

Angesichts der Geschichte vielleicht ein Römer-und-Germanen-Setting mit starkem Grusel-Faktor und mythischen Elementen?

Aus der Big List of Upcoming Pinnacle Products:

  • Description: A Weird Wars version of the Roman era.
  • Release Information: "Weird War Rome and Weird War I are both in the production queue, though there is currently no date information attached to either project. Anyone who suggests they know a date for either of them is likely a liar, not me, or both.

Ist eines der Black Op Projects an denen u.a. Shane seit einigen Jahren dran arbeitet. Dem obigen Bild auf Facebook nach zu urteilen, ist das Projekt im letzten halben Jahr von "irgendwann" auf "Wenn fertig" hochgerutscht.

Klassische Antike scheint wohl gerade drüben en vogue zu sein!

Anmerkung: Weitere Diskussionen hierzu sollten wir dann im Laberthread weiterführen.

War of the Dead Kapitel 4-Abo ist gestartet:



(Requires all previous chapters of War of the Dead)

The survivors of the Pinnacle cruise ship have traveled half-way across the country and survived impossible odds. From confronting the Living Dead, to facing cannibals, to escaping Edward Russo and his army of thousands of Living Dead, the characters have become legends to those aware of their exploits.

Currently trapped inside the Federal Correctional Facility hidden away near the Citizen Relocation Zone in Colorado, the characters must once again perform the impossible if they are to survive. Forced to flee and seek refuge, they are poorly equipped and ill prepared for the array of threats that confront them.

The saga continues in War of the Dead: Chapter Four (To Reign in Hell). War of the Dead brings the zombie apocalypse to the award winning Savage Worlds role-playing game, broken down into 4 chapters of 13 adventures each.

Chapter Four concludes the saga as the characters uncover the secrets of the government shadow war, the history of the Living Dead, and of an insane experiment that could once again change the entire world. Forced into a final confrontation with a secretive government agency, as well as the outlaws that control Helltown, the characters find themselves in a position to affect the future of the human race— or die trying.

This subscription brings you all 13 adventures of Chapter Four, a $26.00 value for only $19.99

Don't drink the water-Part 1



Having some free hours this weekend, I begun photoshoping the stuff I need to play the scenario "Don't drink the water" for Savage Worlds.
To avoid spoilers, let's just say that, at the beginning of the scenario, the characters can encounter the french foreign legion.
So, you'll find here two maps, one with a trail in the desert and another with a small house used by the legionnaries as a post or bivouac.
I have also included the image I am using for desert background.
There are two tokens one of a legionnary private and one of a NCO.
And, of course, there is the wagon (with and without canvas) used by the PCs.

All the maps, tokens, etc... are made for being used in a VTT (Maptool for me) at 128 pixels/square. So if you use other sizes, you should probably rescale them.
I use 128 px/square but I generally display the map at around 60-70%; this way, I can zoom in without losing too much quality.
If you use the drawings here at under 50% (either by rescaling or zooming out) most details shall become too small and quality will suffer.

I have tried to keep a consistent comics-like look for the maps, tokens and portraits. I hope you'll like it. Anyway, here is the zipped file.

Don't drink the water-Part 2



Here is the second part of the maps and tokens destined to be used with the scenario "Don't drink the water" for Savage Worlds.
It contains a few tokens and a map of ruins in the desert (that can be used in almost any setting).
You can download it here.
Last part shall be, obviously, about the village of Bacoachi, its fort and its garrison.

EARTHDAWN SAVAGE WORLDS AND PATHFINDER
Hank Woon (Lost Dynasty, Cathay, Dark Shadows, and Immortal Twilight) is the Line Developer for the Earthdawn Savage Worlds and Pathfinder game lines. These are being developed and released independently of Earthdawn Third Edition and are intended for players of the Savage Worlds and Pathfinder game systems who have not had the pleasure of gaming in the world of Earthdawn. Both editions are based on Earthdawn First Edition.

Hank’s team is also working on producing Adventure modules to support the Savage Worlds and Pathfinder editions. Access to the core Savage Worlds and Pathfinder rulebooks is a prerequisite, but there’s a lot of products coming out for these lines. At time of writing, the schedule for 2012/early-2013 looks like this (for each game system):

2012/Q2: Player’s and GM’s Guides, Parlainth Setting Guide
2012/Q3: Denizens of Barsaive I, Parlainth Adventure #1 and #2, Creatures of Barsaive I
2012/Q4: Adventure Compendium I and II, Parlainth Adventures #3, Horrors I
2013/Q1: Parlainth Adventure #4 and #5, Player’s Companion

Following on from the discussion on the cost of Followers, I've coalesced my comments into a freebie. No rules -- just a behind-the-scenes look at the cost of life for peasants, and definitely not a universal guide to peasant wages.
