The Legends of Sindbad for Savage Worlds (by Game Smith LLC)
The Legends of Sinbad RPG, nach dem vor Kurzem gescheiterten Crowdfunding-Versuch für das The Saga of Dragon Star & N.R.G. Core Rulebook RPG lassen sich die Game Smiths nicht beirren.
Sie legen stattdessen abenteuerlich nach und Sindbad stellt nun wirklich eine fantastische Vorlage für Rollenspiele dar, oder?
Die bescheidene Zielsumme von 1000 $ konnte innerhalb kurzer Zeit nahezu erreicht werden. Die Kickstarter-Kampagne läuft noch 26 Tage und aktuell fehlen lediglich 120 $, damit das The Legends of Sinbad RPG wahr werden (kann). Die Macher versprechen, dass das Rollenspiel vollständig sein wird, die Regeln für Savage Worlds werden demnach enthalten sein.
The Legends of Sinbad is a new sword-and-sorcery campaign set on Earth in the year 801 C.E.
Inspired by the Harryhausen Sinbad trilogy but based on real-world mythologies, histories, and legends, as well as the tales of the Arabian nights, the game is more than a Prince of Persia tale. As you can see from the map below (which is not yet complete–more cities will be added as development continues), a wide variety of cultures are represented. In this one era, you can find every RPG setting imaginable. You have the Vikings in the Norselands; feudal Europe with the Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms and the Carolingian Empire; wild, druidic barbarians in the Celtic Kingdoms; a classical feel with the Eastern Roman Empire; savage nomadic hordes with the Kazar Khaganate; and Arabic with the Abassid Caliphate.
And each culture brings with it its own monsters from mythology–kraken, gray dwarves, and frost giants in the Norselands; dragons and centaurs in the Carolingian Empire; trolls and ogres in the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms; brownies and banshees in the Celtic kingdoms; gorgons and hydras in the Eastern Roman Empire; and djinn in the Kingdom of the Moors; just to name a few!
Of course, there is a lot more to this setting than just the above. This is just a quick note to point out that this setting is not just another Arabic genre piece, but a vibrant, versatile, and unique sword-and-sorcery campaign setting!
The campaign book will be made available in Savage Worlds, and you won’t need to buy the Savage Worlds book to play! This will be a complete set!
