Expanding their free rules releases even more, this week we see an update to the interlude rules. These are the rules as they appear in the new Savage Worlds Deluxe.
After a review of them, they are quite brilliant and simple to use and explain. They’ll help quickly enhance the game any time you have a moment of down time.
We continue presenting you the changes from Savage Worlds: Explorer’s Edition to Savage Worlds Deluxe available as PDFs. Today, the new Interludes Rules from Savage Worlds Deluxe are available on our Downloads page.
These rules were originally released in Zombie Run and added as a free web enhancement at the same time. The new Interlude Rules are faster and more flexible, but still just as fun!
These join last week’s posting of the new Chase Rules. Keep watching the homepage as we roll out the rest of the changes in the coming weeks!

Here is the news from last week:
2011 ENnie Voting Open!
Voting opened for the 2011 ENnies, and the voting page is now live! Savage Worlds is being represented by three products in four categories.
Pinnacle summed up the Savage Worlds entries pretty nicely:
Space 1889: Red Sands has been nominated for both Best Setting and Best Supplement. This was a labor of love for us at Pinnacle, bringing Frank Chadwick’s classic Space 1889 setting to the Savage Worlds rules, and it’s especially gratifying to see it get two nominations.
Shanghai Vampocalypse from Savage Mojo has been nominated for Best Electronic Book as well. Savage Mojo is a long-time licensee, and Shanghai Vampocalypse continues their Suzerain setting. It’s nice to see recognition for ongoing support and line depth, and we look forward to seeing their setting continue to grow.
That’s right in case you missed the post a little over a week ago, we’re nominated for an ENnie! We would be honored if you voted for us for Best Electronic Product. If you wanted to add us to your Fan Favorite Publisher, we’d be ecstatic. Please spread the word!

It’s exciting to see Pinnacle to move into other areas in the Deadlands property, with the Dime Novels and now Miniatures. Unfortunately the pictures are a bit small but the detailing looks pretty good. Personally I love the look of Reverend Grimme with his book held high, but it may be my personal love of clerics.

It seems that everyone is taking the week off for Fourth activities as such it’s a bit of a slow news week, but the War of the Dead is here to save us. This week continues the heoric journey of the post-apocalyptic zombie survivors.
From RPGNow:
After a pitched battle that saw several women and children carried off into the night by cannibals, the convoy had to split into separate teams. One team tracked the cannibals down to their hidden cabin and staged a daring rescue; another team went into the city in search of tires to fit the RV and Humvees.
Finally arriving in Colorado, the characters are faced with a new set of problems. Will they be able to keep everything together, while at the same time facing the bitter cold and heavy snowfall?

Personally I’m a bit excited for these, but I’m a huge reader of novels. As I recently received a Kindle for Christmas, I’ve been gathering ebooks like I’m building a nest out of ‘em. With Pinnacle announcing the release of these novels and their impending Kindle/iBookstore/Nook/Sony Reader releases, I’m excited to pick these up and enjoy their stories.
The second part of The Legend of Kyla Kidd finds our heroine searching the oceans, jungles, and towns of Caribdus for the trail of her long-lost father-and his mysterious treasure!

Personally I love good fluff. An RPG book can be make or break on the fluff of the adventures. To much, your quickly turned off, to little you’re not invested enough, and for those of you who can’t get enough Pinnacle announced a new line, Fiction. They’ve culled their writers to produce books by the dozen for their settings. The latest this week is the trilogy The Legend of Kyla Kidd.
The world of Caribdus is drowning—cursed by three vengeful Sea Hags. Dozens of island nations have already been destroyed and the races beneath the Shimmering Seas have been ravaged by their drifting ruins and turbulent tides. Through the mists at the center of this catastrophe drifts ships bearing strangers—time-tossed visitors from earth. One of these is Kyla Kidd, fast on the trail of her long-lost father Captain William Kidd. But is she seeking to clear his name? Or find his much-rumored treasure? And is the treasure merely gold and jewels, or something far more amazing… Kyla’s journeys will take her into the heart of the Devil’s Cross—home of the Sea Hags—where she battles betrayal, savage monsters, and horrors beyond imagining in this three-part trilogy written by Tony “Salty Sea Dog” Lee and beautifully illustrated in full-color by Richard “Keelhaulin’” Clark.
