[QUOTE="paulewaug, post: 1189983, member: 5899"] So far there is Evernight, more of a campaign book/adventure than anything. And 50 Fathoms. 50 Fathoms is not out yet but should be Very soon apparently. I guess it is in Printer Hell? To tell much about Evernight is to do some spoliage so [spoiler]Evernight is a preplanned adventure set in what appears at first to be a more or less standard fantasy world. Although you may note there is gun powder technology so it's not exactly "medieval" You should be able to drop any and all refereance to that kind of tech and not even know it was there. The way things "diverge" is the scripted adventure. The world is invaded, part of the invasion plan is to blacken out the sky, thus the "Evernight" aspect. So the characters are caught up in fighting off the invaders, discovering who they are and all that fun stuff. Now the invaders are not exactly "space men", they are actually inspired by some old events in the writers D&D campaign so they have some similarity to a certain existing D&D monster.[/spoiler] 50 Fathoms has some good info here: [url]http://www.peginc.com/OurGames/SW50Fathoms.htm[/url] and especially here: [url]http://www.peginc.com/Articles/50FStory--Thwaack.htm[/url] Just released is a product by "12 to midnight" called "Last Rites" a modernesque horror investigation. Check here:[url]http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=2137&PHPSESSID=506f6d5f14e1a550f6d1d88d84820665[/url] also notice it was written for d20 as well. Not "dual stat" so much as pick the system you want it for and get that version. One of the strengths of the system is that it is easier for the GM to get ready and run an adventure. I also think that Reapers Warlord line is totally suited to this system. IMO the style of the Warlord sculpts fits the feel of the system as fantasy particularly well. Another nice thing is that the system never changes regardless of what genre you play. If it is darkages just use the mediaval gear only, fantasy-allow the players to make pcs that can use magic, 18th century-no problem, pulp era-good to go, contemporary modern, strap on a Kevlar vest and grab aDesert Eagle. Future- mmm can we use the Power Armor this time? It goes well with my Molecular sword and my Laser Pistol! So it's all right there and no differance in how you actually play. Unlike the D20 system where the rules themselves change. I don't mean this as a diss on the d20 systems out there, I just am noting I have seen a few comments on how d20 modern is slightly different than D&D. Granted it is and for a reason, but people have noted that they felt there are differances in rules that they felt did not need to work differently. Well anyhow I hope his is useful info. Maybe some day Sw will have as big a following as D&D and we can have a "Savage EnWorld!" :D hehe [/QUOTE]
