Daring Tales of Adventure - Pulp Abenteuer

Als euch ein Freund mitteilt, dass er wichtige Informationen hat, die er mit euch besprechen muss, ist euch klar, dass es nur der Anfang von etwas Größerem sein kann. Nazi-Schergen, tödliche, fleischfressende Insekten vom Amazonas, eine entführte Reporterin und ein waghalsiger Überfall auf Washington D.C. sind allesamt Tagesgeschäft für Helden, die Das Ende aller Kriege anstreben.

Ein vermisster Wissenschaftler, ein Schurke mit der Absicht, König zu werden, uralte Rätsel, ein tödliches Labyrinth, eine mythische Kreatur, die nicht das ist, was die Legenden behaupten, und ein Buch, dessen Inhalt das Ende der Menschheit bedeuten könnte – all das führt zu nichts als Chaos auf Kreta.

Wenn du eine Leiche in deinem Haus findest, besonders wenn es die eines renommierten Forschungsreisenden ist, dürfte klar sein, dass es kein normaler Tag wird. Das Netz des Spinnenkults führt die Helden von den Korridoren und Galerien des Boston Museums, über die Sümpfe Louisianas, direkt in die dunkelsten Dschungel Mexikos. Dort werden die Helden inmitten der Ruinen eines Jahrhunderte alten Tempels ihrem bisher mächtigsten Widersacher gegenübertreten.

Von den Straßen Washingtons in die brütend heißen Sandwüsten Ägyptens und schließlich in eine überwältigende Eisfestung im frostigen Norden. Der Schatz der Templer veranlasst die Charaktere zu einer rasanten Reise auf der Suche nach einem Schatz, für den Menschen bereit waren zu töten, um ihn zu besitzen oder zu beschützen.

Im Jahr 1935 haben die Helden einen Teil eines uralten chinesischen Artefakts in den Bergen Tibets entdeckt – ein Artefakt, an dem ein chinesischer Mystiker namens Lo-Peng interessiert ist. Ein Jahr später wird das Relikt aus dem Boston Museum gestohlen. Ein seltsames chinesisches Piktogramm, das am Tatort zurückgelassen wurde, führt die Helden auf eine Achterbahnfahrt von Boston über Afghanistan nach Venedig und schlussendlich nach China und dem Grab des ersten Kaisers. Kampfkünstler, uralte chinesische Krieger mit übernatürlichen Kräften, tödliche Fallen und ein erbitterter Afghanenstamm stehen zwischen den Helden und dem Sieg. Können die Helden den Krallen Lo-Pengs entkommen?

Hellfrost Region Guide #36: THE GLITTERSANDS
Model: TAG31236
Author: Paul "Wiggy" Wade-Williams
Page Count: 6
Price: €1.30 (TAG), €1.45 (DriveThruRPG)

Surrounded by mountains and sea, the Glittersands is an isolated realm, a cold desert broken only by melted stone ruins and the great dunes that rise in the west. An inhospitable wilderness of unnatural origin infested with orcs, trolls, and giants, the frost-covered sands are nonetheless home to sturdy souls.

Heldalund is a demoralized nation. Orcs control the northern reaches and the second largest town, Hellfrost dragons circle in the west, the army has withered to a shadow of its former self, and trade has been crippled by a loss of exports and high taxation in Cul. Heldalund stands on the brink of disaster, but all is not yet lost.

TECHNISCHE PROBLEME IM TAG-STORE!

[Stand: 01.02.2011 11:00] Bitte momentan nichts bestellen. Das Problem wurde gemeldet und man ist dran es zu beseitigen!

Email von Robster:

We are experiencing some issues with the hosts server - we are working on it.
 
Sorry for the inconvenience.
 
Thanks
 
Robin

[Stand: 01.02.2011 17:00] Die gröbsten Probleme im TAG Store scheinen behoben zu sein. Es kommt aber immer noch zu Problemen beim Einloggen in den Store und beim Versenden von e-Mails an TAG, da der Spamfilter "überreagiert". Dies liegt allerdings auf Seiten des ISP!

Wer heute morgen Heldalund und evtl. andere Produkte bestellt haben sollte und per PayPal bestellt hat, hat sein Geld evtl schon zurückerstattet bekommen.

Bestellungen sollten funktionieren, sofern man sich einloggen kann.

Es wird weiter dran gearbeitet und die Jungs bedauern den Ärger sehr!

[Stand: 02.02.2011 00:30] Problem behoben. Store ist wieder voll erreichbar. Betroffene Kunden wurden angeschrieben. Beträge wurden zurückerstattet und einige bekamen so gar Gratisdownloads.

This week we are proud to announce the pre-order release of Wonderland No More. Adventure in the world of Alice! This fantastic setting has been written by three great authors who have laboured long and hard to produce a great looking book! We have a short preview to download also - check it out today!


Wonderland No More - Setting Guide (PRE-ORDER BOOK + PDF BUNDLE)
Model: TAG30017E
Author: Kevin L. Anderson, Lansing D. Tryon & Jordan Peacock
Page Count: 196 page softcover
Art: B&W Text & Color Cover
Price: 19,53 € (TAG)

WE'RE ALL MAD HERE!

In 1865, Lewis Carroll introduced the world to the delightful nonsense of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and followed up with Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There in 1871. These tales present us with a world of whimsy and absurdity, and maybe just the tiniest hint of danger and adventure.

But what if there really was an Alice who visited Wonderland and what if it didn't vanish as soon as she left? What if Wonderland’s childlike charm tarnished just a bit with the years, and it warped under the weight of its own nonsense? Maybe it's all just a dream—or a nightmare—but it's all very real for anyone trapped within.

Wonderland No More provides a setting for adventures within a realm of fantasy and the unexpected, a madcap ride that bounces between humor and horror. Here, when the Queen of Hearts cries, "Off with their heads!" it usually happens!

Take on the roles of wooden Chessmen, two-dimensional Cards, talking Animals, mobile Plants, Tweedle, or even the occasional Human. Knights quest for blessed artifacts of Alice, Little Girls master the deadly Queen's Croquet, Haberdashers have a few tricks under their caps, and Gourmancers create magical foods and drinks (helpfully labeled "Eat Me" or "Drink Me" for those who can't figure it out on their own).

Lighthearted or sinister, it's all what you make of it in Wonderland—because we're all mad here.

Contained in this book:

• Six playable races, including Animals, Cards and Chessmen.
• Over 40 new Edges and Hindrances  explore the new character options the world of Wonderland.
• Three Arcane Backrounds - holy priests who worship Alice or the Spirit of Conflict, Gourmancers who cook their powers into dishes and Haberdashers wielders of hat themed magics.
• Detailed setting rules covering the science of Wonderland, its relation to our world, and more.
• A fully detailed campaign.
• Over twenty Savage Tales.
• Side Quests and Other Diversions - suggestions for further adventures along various themes.
• Full stats for dozens of allies, opponents and creatures the heroes will encounter on their journeys.

Triple Ace Games presents Wonderland No More for the award winning Savage Worlds RPG - adventure in Alice's world!

[GRAmel Publishing] Beasts and Barbarians

Beasts and Barbarians, a Sword and Sorcery Savage Worlds setting by Umberto Pignatelli. Welcome to the dangerous Dominions of the Blood Sea, a place where mighty barbarians fight against hideous monsters, dark warlocks whisper terrible sorceries in forgotten temples, and noble amazons duel in the sun scorched arenas of Faberterra, capital of a decadent empire!



Thirty new Edges will allow you to play a classic Sword and Sorcery legend. Become a bare-chested barbarian and fight to save magnificent courtesans from a fate worse than death. Or a cunning rogue and plunder treasures hidden in crumbling cities.

Three arcane backgrounds, Lotusmastery, Sorcery and the Path of the Enlightment, will make you able to dispatch the ancient evil that lurks in jungles of the south.

Dozens of new weapons, armors and mounts will grant your hero the best gear that can be imagined!

A simple but elegant system to develop you character even outside the adventure and to manage the enormous richness you'll find!
And much, much more!

Are you brave enough to face the threats of Beasts and Barbarians?

Coming this spring!

Model: TAG31238
Author: Paul "Wiggy" Wade-Williams
Page Count: 6
Price: €1.30 (TAG), €1.47 (DriveThruRPG)

Bound by the deadly Frozen Forest, the impassable Sunken Realm, and the treacherous Frozen Sea, the Freeholds are the most isolated and remote realm on the continent. Beset by undead and Hellfrost horrors, the rugged settlers and hardy nomads who call this realm home are slaves to no man, for here all are considered equal.

[Wonderland] Wonderland No More Map Pack zum Download!

"What’s the good of Mercator’s North Poles and Equators, Tropics, Zones, and Meridian Lines?" So the Bellman would cry, and the crew would reply, "They are merely conventional signs!"

That all said, a map can be a useful thing for traversing Wonderland, if only to give a general idea of the places one might want to visit (or to avoid). So we present you with maps from Wonderland No More, for your viewing and printing pleasure, intended for use in Wonderland-based adventures. Now you can see the length and breadth of the Monarchy of Hearts and the Looking-glass Lands, plus floorplans for a couple of Victorian-era buildings to provide a backdrop for the action.

Brought to you by the incredibly talented Mr. Jordan Peacock and best of all, it’s free!

Download it here.

Author: Paul "Wiggy" Wade-Williams
Page Count: 6
Price: €1.30 (TAG), €1.46 (DriveThruRPG)

Despite being held in the grip of winter all year round, Lakeland has a small but thriving population. Dour and taciturn, the hardy Lakelanders survive by hunting and fishing. Every day is a struggle for survival, yet the independently minded denizens would have it no other way. Here a man lives by his skills and dies by his ignorance.

SUNDERED SKIES ISLAND GUIDE #02: THE SHATTERED CITY
Model: TAG31069
Author: Dave Blewer
Page Count: 12
Price: €2.60 (TAG), €2.89 (DriveThruRPG)

The Shattered City  is a dizzying maelstrom of islets and fragments of ruins rich in both salvage and danger.

The Shattered City has chewed up, and spat out countless scavengers and adventurers, but enough have returned battered, and wounded but with valuable, and vital salvage that it still remains the Sundered Skies primary source of salvage.

The Shattered City Island Guide is the second in a series of Sundered Skies modules which builds upon information contained in both Sundered Skies and the Sundered Skies Companion. It contains a new Background Edge for those born within the ruined city. Details on both the Bright Cabal and the Sons of Spire and their schemes and ambitions.

The archetypal and terrifying Pirate Lords and many of the major wonders which can be found out in the ruins complete with enough scenario seeds to kickstart a mini campaign. This Guide also details several important NPC's who have the potential to become the heroes grudging allies or bitter enemies and finally details several creatures and hazards new to the Sundered Skies including the tragic Ancient Ghost, which has haunted the skies since the Sundering, the horrifying Soulstorm with the power to destroy an island, and the ominous carrion crowe which both feeds upon and augments necromantic energy.

Sundered Skies Island Guides are designed for the Sundered Skies setting for the award winning Savage Worlds RPG.

Hellfrost Suplementary: Resource Management
Model: TAG31247
Author: Paul "Wiggy" Wade-Williams
Artist: Chris Kuhlmann
Page Count: 25
Price: €3.25 (TAG), €3.59 (DriveThruRPG)

There is more to being a leader of men than adventuring.

Although Hellfrost is primarily a game about adventuring and heroic deeds, it also rewards characters who have invested in the Noble, Rich, or Filthy Rich Edges, or achieved positions of power through roleplaying. This supplement takes a look at managing an income-producing resource, whether that is a noble’s domain, a guild, a mercantile enterprise, a temple, a mercenary company, or even a school.

Although written for the Hellfrost setting, these rules can be easily adapted to any Savage Worlds setting or genre.

This supplement contains rules previously published in the Hellfrost Expansion. They are presented here in a standalone format.
