Rite Publishing–Races review
Hello everybody once again! With the Questhaven patronage project approaching commission, I’m going to take a closer look at all the race-books published by Rite Publishing for PFRPG so far.
Role Playing Games
Blood Moon Rising
For reasons I’ve never completely grasped, there have always been far more low-level adventures than mid- to high-level ones. I suppose it has a lot to do with the fewer number of variables in play when dealing with 1st to 3rd-level characters compared to, say, 9th to 12th-level characters, especially in old school RPGs, where mechanical balance isn’t a significant aspect of their design.
Abandon all Hope
By Megan Robertson You might think that it was bad enough to be locked up on an automated spaceship and
Tommy’s take on Age Past Preview.
Age Past is an upcoming fantasy RPG by Jeff Mechlinkski, and I have been given the opportunity to preview the book. Now, this is just that, a preview…I won’t be doing a full review here. The PDF I was given clocks in currently at 253 pages, with some material still missing as well as several placeholders for art. The estimated completion date is September 2011, so I think they still have time.
Crafty news!
Crafty Games will be pre-releasing their latest book, the Adventure Companion at NeoCon in less than three weeks.
Wedding Knight
The introduction to this adventure provides an apposite reminder: in a game in which dynasties and bloodlines and the good of your House feature large, weddings are going to be very important events indeed.
Tommy’s Take on High Valor

Interface Zero: Savage Worlds Edition

Coliseum Morpheuon
A quick glance at the cover and interior shows you that CM is a full-color book, and a beautiful one at that – both the full-color artworks and the formatting are beautiful to behold and easy to read. That being said, let’s jump into the action. The pdf kicks off with an informative introduction on the subject matter of the plane of dreams in literature and gaming that serves to provide both nice recommended readings as well as lead into the first chapter.
War of the Dead: Chapter 1
War of the Dead Chapter One is the first leg of the War of the Dead campaign epic for Savage Worlds by Daring Entertainment. To be clear: Chapter One is actually 13 adventures, of which there will ultimately be 52 (not counting one sheets, which Daring has begun to release). It is a modern setting, set during a zombie outbreak, and you can buy them in bits or you can buy all of Chapter One as a package. I’m going to save you the trouble: Like Savage Worlds and zombies? Go buy the bundle. I’ll even link to it for you.
