Apologizes to our loyal readers who follow our Savage Mondays. I had a 11 lb 5 oz “problem” by the name of Jack Hayes that came up around the end of November that’s had me rather distracted. Who has been rather demanding on our schedule.
I found this intriguing, I look over many Kickstarter projects and rarely find ones that I’m willing to shell out some cash for. This setting not only looked interesting but offered some great bonuses for chipping in. At the $25 you get a print copy of the book, a PDF, and at least two archtypes. If the project hits $8k then the first of four adventures will be released to the backers. Not a bad deal.
Streets of Bedlam: A Savage World of Crime + Corruption is equal parts neo-noir, pulp detective fiction, and a bit of the ol’ ultraviolence thrown into a cement mixer and poured on top a heap of nameless bodies no one will ever miss.
It’s a modern urban setting full of despicable people doing awful things in the name of God, money, politics, or to pay off old debts. The stories shine light on the dark places of the human heart but it’s about finding diamonds in the rough, about good people in bad situations. The heroes may have questionable means but they have good intentions.
Of course, you know what they say about good intentions.

I will admit this setting intrigues me a bit. Mostly in the fact that you can swap skills between missions and the sheer amount of tech that is likely to come with it. I’m planning on listening to Episode 93 of the Game’s The Thing to learn more about it. Has anyone had a chance to check it out? Let us know in the comments.
Agents of Oblivion is the highly anticipated Savage Worlds setting book we like to call The Perfect Cocktail of Horror and Espionage. Within these pages grace everything you need to play the style of spy game you want to play from “The Company Line” where every nightmare and conspiracy you can imagine is real and you can wield the powers you need to drive back the darkness to “Spy versus Spy” where you can take things on in a gritty brutal fashion.
Let’s break things down a bit more: Agent generation is designed with flexibility in mind and expands the Savage Worlds base rules while remaining true to them. Within are options to even modify your agent’s abilities between missions. Add to that resources and you have a setting which truly shines-spytech, special training, SUDs (single use devices), and a multitude of ways to trick out your loadouts and options to grab!

Savage Licenses
RedBrick: the Newest Savage Licensee
It is always exciting to see new licensees take up the Savage mantle. RedBrick is the makers of many RPG’s games already and I’m sure that their line will add some excellent choices to the Savage line.
From Pinnacle:

Savage Worlds Deluxe Errata & Character Sheet Now Available
Pinnacle has been busy again with their free releases. This week we see the release of the Errata and the Character Sheet for Savage Worlds Deluxe.
It’s funny, now. As a publisher going through your game, you always find little tweaks you want to make after the fact. It becomes easier, if your product is digital, to provide these updates, but it’s always embarrassing. Oh well. Pick these up to get your game running right.

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.

The War of the Dead is back with Chapter 3! Were excited to see where the survivors head off to and how the deal with the chase of Edward Russo. Keep a close eye on this space for the weekly updates.
From RPGNow:
It’s been three weeks since the birth of Faith Carlson. The group has remained at the Barrow farm while both the mother and child recover enough to travel.
With hundreds of miles remaining to reach Colorado, and supplies limited, the characters have been raiding nearby rural towns in preparation. Ambushed by men within the town, their problems are quickly increased when they realize that new Living Dead wandering into the area are actually from Sanctuary . . . and that Edward Russo and his army of millions of zombies are on their trail!

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.

Pinnacles big announcement this week was the pre-order of The Path of Kane for the Savage World of Solomon Kane. With over 50 new Savage Tales this is surely an book worth picking up for any Solomon Kane fan.
From Pinnacle:
You have seen the path to redemption, a road paved in the blood and bones of the evil you must defeat to save the world from its unholy taint. Face that which prey on men’s dreams, their fears, and their very souls. Walk The Path of Kane.
Your enemies span the globe, reaching out from every shadowy corner of all four continents. Men, magick, and monsters of the darkest hearts and basest desires threaten the very world you tread. Humanity is lost without the will and steel of good folk like you.
