[High Level Games] Cat's Meow: A One Page Adventure for Savage Worlds
Author: Josh Heath
Pages: 4
Prices: €0,86 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)

Excuse me, my cat is lost. Can you help me? She’s a ginger cat, and this isn’t the first time she’s gone missing. If it was just a day or two, I wouldn’t be worried. I’ll pay you (an extreme amount) to help me find her.

This is an adventure set in a urban setting that starts with a plea for help, includes a short investigation, and culminates with an encounter with a myusterous cult with an extradimensional connection.

This product is the first of a series of One-Pagers, single page adventures that are perfect for a player or GM without a lot of time or running short on ideas.

It can be dropped into any setting and is written so that it can be run as a starter quest, part of a longer adventure, a side quest if you are out of ideas, or even as a one-shot adventure!

Not only that, but we have chosen to include the lionoid race you see pictured on the front cover, the Chatoulim, as bonus material to add to your campaign or even provide as an option for your players who want something a little out of the box.

Please let us know how you think we did and if your group enjoyed it!

Author: Paul 'Wiggy' Wade-Williams

Prices: €8,57 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)

Who doesn't love the smell of napalm in the morning?

Love them or hate them, few citizens or Church officials deny the Incinerators have played their part in helping rid Salus of the Rephaim. Time after time, the brave Knights of the Ordo have delivered cleansing holy fire to the enemy. To some, they are true heroes of the faith, prepared to wade into the heart of darkness to purify Salus. To others, they are nothing more than pyromaniacs given license to wield fire.

Inside you’ll find: an expanded history, information on how the Ordo recruits new members and finances its scattered forces, details on the various Chapters, a tour of noted facilities, a range of hardware, sample Wild Card and Extra characters, background details on famous units, and plenty of new options for creating player character Incinerators.

[GGstudio] Hope&Glory: Part of the Machine
Authors: Davide Mana, Umberto Pignatelli
Pages: 60
Prices: €2,54 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)

Welcome to a new world... On the 21st of October 1852, the citizens of London and Paris were awed at the sight of the western sky turning suddenly a strange shade of purple and red. The first seismic shocks were felt all over the world in the following hours, and by the dawn of the 23rd of October, the giant waves hit the coasts of Europe. In the evening of the same day, while the tremors continued, catastrophic waves also hit the coasts of Asia. Whole cities, blasted by the earthquakes, were submerged by the sea. Millions of lives were lost. Then the Black Rain began, washing the ruins and leaving behind a thick layer of ashes. Dark, impenetrable clouds hid the sun, and the Thirty Years Winter began. In the Northern Hemisphere crops failed, snow-bound cities went up in flames as the populations rioted and the governments tried to find a solution, the means to survive.
One hundred years have passed now since the Catastrophe, and humanity has survived. In the former colonial domains of Africa and South America. In the blasted plains of China. Among the remains of the Japanese archipelago. In Russian palaces sealed against the howling winds of the steppe. In the land that once was India. With sacrifice and ingenuity, with courage and hope, new nations have crawled back from the brink to claim the new world.
Science is a beacon to the future.
From the frozen wastes of Europe, where the mammoth roam, to the proud Zulu Nation of Africa, from the technological wonders of the Anglo-Indian Raj to the mist-shrouded shores of Lost America, these are the stories of a new, strange world.

Part of the Machine is a story set in the universe of “Hope & Glory”, a game setting developed for the Savage Worlds rules.
The “Hope & Glory” universe exists for the game and for the gamers, and attached to the novel there's a roundup of gaming information for those readers that would like to start playing straight away.

Thanks for reading, and have fun!

[Clockwork Publishing] Space: 1889 - London Bridge Has Fallen Down

Pages: 29
Prices: €8,44 €4,22 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)

Everything Jules Verne could have written.
Everything H. G. Wells should have written.
Everything Arthur Conan Doyle thought of,
but never published - because it was too fantastic.

Mylarkt—Mars’ oldest city, home to a proud and fading race. But that pride masks a rot festering in the cracks of the city’s decay, an underworld teeming with smuggled goods and ancient artifacts sold at the behest of local crime lords to be shipped out along the ancient canals of which the city’s founders were pioneers—or so the inhabitants claim.

No sane Earthman would enter this pit of iniquity willingly—but who can refuse the request of a grieving noblewoman? Lady Edith Tillington is mourning her husband, a scientist in her Majesty’s service, who crashed in the desert onboard an ether flyer called London Bridge. She is now in need of bold, Mars-proven adventurers willing to help her recover the remains of her late husband. The characters arrive at the ancient Martian city only to find themselves at the very heart of the city’s quarrels, with the colonial powers, local smugglers, assassins, and the ruling elite of Mylarkt all playing out their own selfish schemes. In a wild chase, they will find themselves forced to make their way deep into the Isidis Desert, where they will be confronted with the best kept secret of the Empire!

This adventure includes a detailed description of the city of Mylarkt, including a city map, with additional locations, factions, and thrilling plot hooks providing inspiration for further adventures in and around Mylarkt, a city with a long history and powerful interests at play.

This adventure is written for the Savage Worlds Version of the Space:1889 RPG.

Can't run your usual game, running a Con game or looking for something short to introduce new players? Just Insert Imagination has you covered.

In Peckham, London, through some admin error, a scummy little post office has to hold a gigantic amount of cash for a small amount of time.

Outside, stands a group of the most under-qualified post-office robbers the whole of London. Armed with replica guns, a rubbish motor they bought off some geezer for cash and a load of plastic Animal masks they head to the door...

In 'Punted in the Bonce: A cockney adventure', players assume the roles of a bunch of punters who met in an East End pub called The Duke. Through a cruel twist of drunken fate, they end up owing a ridiculous amount of money to the most feared gangster in the whole of London.

Now, of course, they must do the only logical thing; rob a bloody post-office.

Punted in the Bonce is an Action-Comedy Plug & Play Adventure from Just Insert Imagination and it includes so much bleedin' stuff (that is designed to fit inside a GM screen):

• setting rules
• twists and complications to use
• npc's
• 5 pre-generated characters

[Pinnacle] The Last Parsec: Tales of the Red Band Part I
Authors: Matthew Cutter
Pages: 6
Prices: €2,54 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)

Savage Tales of the Red Band by Brand Manager Matthew Cutter is an ongoing serial for The Last Parsec, the parts of which can be assembled to form a loose Plot Point Campaign.

During the early exploration of the Known Worlds, JumpCorp survey teams color-coded bands of expansion. For several decades, the “red band” proved the most dangerous—and the most profitable. Eventually, several of these trailblazing charters joined together to form the “Red Band Conglomerate.” Red Band is so large it defies any simple description, much like JumpCorp itself. Its charters participate in everything from galactic defense to the usual gamut of exploration, shipping, and R&D.

This adventure series requires the Savage Worlds core rules, Science Fiction Companion, and The Last Parsec Core rule book.

Savage Tales of the Red Band (Part I) originally published in the Savage Worlds Explorer Issue 2, available in print directly from Pinnacle.

A one night job in Jalizar, the City of Thieves: you must sneak in the palace of Val Catha, a dangerous sorcerer if one ever existed, and ransack it. You can keep everything you find, apart from the content of a crystal strong box and will have a full bag of gold on top of it, too. The Palace owner is currently out of town, only his dim-witted servant is at home, so what can possibly go wrong?
Combat, sea chases, dangerous explorations and an ancient secret await the hero in the first, introductory adventure of Beasts & Barbarians Steel Edition!

This scenario is an excellent way to start your adventures in the Dread Sea Dominions.
It is designed for a party of four Seasoned characters with 20 XP, but it can be easily altered to fit more powerful or numerous groups.

It includes a variety of situations: social interactions (Persuasion and a good Charisma could be very useful there), some good old-fashioned breaking and entering (Lockpicking and Stealth), a dangerous sea voyage (Boating) and a number of combats (any combat skill).

In addition, having a character with some Knowledge (Arcana) could give some extra insights to the party.

Although all the Skills above are useful, they are not essential to complete the adventure successfully.
