Complete with a full adventure for <strong><em>Savage Worlds TTRPG</em></strong>. <strong><em>New Bristol</em></strong> is both a campaign setting and a campaign in its own right. The intention behind this project is to introduce a unique city into your player’s campaign via the introductory adventure, making it a unique setting, perhaps even the base of operations for your players. Superheroes are defined not just by their powers or their rogues’ gallery of villains but also by their surroundings. <strong>Superman</strong> wouldn’t be the same character without Metropolis, and putting <strong>Batman</strong> into Cleveland just wouldn’t work. A hero’s city is as much a defining characteristic of the hero and their struggle as their powers. In a comic, the city generates plot lines at a hero, generates supporting characters, and builds the drama. <strong><em>New Bristol</em></strong> will help you bring that to your roleplaying experience. Building on the legacy of fictional cities, <strong><em>New Bristol</em></strong> draws upon the heritage and history of comic book cities, drawing inspiration from such notable towns as: Gotham, Metropolis, Helium, Star City, [and] Astro City.”[/EXCERPT]</p><p style="text-align: center"><a href="https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/coyotesisters/new-bristol-a-campaign-setting-for-your-supers-ttrpg-swade/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/coyotesisters/new-bristol-a-campaign-setting-for-your-supers-ttrpg-swade/minichart.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></p><p></p><p><strong>RPG Quick Hits</strong></p><p></p><p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/matthew-christensen/forges-of-byorn" target="_blank"><strong>Forges of Byorn</strong></a><strong> from Matthew Christensen</strong></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Fri, September 18 2020 12:03 PM EDT.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">“The Euro-style RPG for storytelling like you've never seen.”</li> </ul><p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/science-wizard/crypt-of-the-science-wizard-dcc-and-mcc" target="_blank"><strong>Crypt of the SCIENCE-WIZARD DCC and MCC</strong></a><strong> from </strong><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/12902/Skeeter-Green-Productions?affiliate_id=814082" target="_blank"><strong>Skeeter Green Productions</strong></a> <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/dcc.jpg" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":dcc:" title="Dungeon Crawl Classics :dcc:" data-shortname=":dcc:" /></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Tue, September 22 2020 3:00 PM EDT.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">“<strong><em>Crypt of the SCIENCE-WIZARD</em></strong> for <strong>DCC</strong> and <strong>MCC</strong>.”</li> </ul><p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bitesizedgaming/captain-hartchilds-guide-to-rare-dragons" target="_blank"><strong>Captain Hartchild's Guide to Rare Dragons</strong></a><strong> from BiteSizedGaming</strong> <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/dndnext.jpg" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":dndnext:" title="D&D Next :dndnext:" data-shortname=":dndnext:" /></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Sun, September 20 2020 10:00 PM EDT.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">“Bizarre Behemoths & Reclusive Wyrms for <strong>5th Edition</strong>.”</li> </ul><p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1758974936/adventure-journal" target="_blank"><strong>Adventure Journal</strong></a> <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/dndnext.jpg" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":dndnext:" title="D&D Next :dndnext:" data-shortname=":dndnext:" /></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Fri, September 18 2020 9:00 PM EDT.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">“The <strong><em>Adventure Journal</em></strong> is an excellent tool for keeping track of your <strong><em>Dungeons & Dragons</em></strong> characters and chronicling their epic journeys!”</li> </ul><p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/643710787/stat-trackers-friends-and-foes-gm-accessory-for-5th-edition" target="_blank"><strong>Stat Trackers Friends & Foes DM Tool for Dungeons & Dragons</strong></a><strong> from Top Dog Games</strong> <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/dndnext.jpg" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":dndnext:" title="D&D Next :dndnext:" data-shortname=":dndnext:" /></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Thu, September 24 2020 3:10 PM EDT.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">“<strong><em>Stat Tracker Expansion Box</em></strong> adds hundreds of new Monsters and NPCs to the ultimate DM accessory for <strong>5th edition</strong>.”</li> </ul><p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/darkravengames/valhalla-darkraven-fantasy-soundscapes-flac-edition" target="_blank"><strong>Valhalla Darkraven Fantasy Soundscapes - FLAC Edition!</strong></a><strong> from </strong><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/6432/Darkraven-Games?affiliate_id=814082" target="_blank"><strong>Darkraven Games</strong></a></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Fri, September 18 2020 3:41 PM EDT.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">“<strong><em>Fantasy Soundscapes first FLAC Edition</em></strong> - 25 hours of fantasy audio to bring your tabletop adventures to life!

You are the last surviving crew member of the intergalactic salvage ship The Wretched. Adrift between stars after an engine failure, your ship was attacked by a hostile alien lifeform. The crew are dead. You thought you had won. You launched the creature out of an airlock, and that should have meant safety. It didn’t. [B][I]The Wretched[/I][/B] is a solo journaling/roleplaying game played with a deck of cards, a tumbling block tower, and a microphone. [B][I]The Wretched[/I][/B] is a game about human resilience in the face of overwhelming odds and almost certain death. It is a game about isolation, fear, and perseverance. You play a lone survivor of an horrific attack. You have seen and done terrible things, you have seen your friends - your found family - brutally butchered by something you can’t even begin to comprehend, something that you were sure didn’t exist until it manifested itself aboard your ship.”[/EXCERPT] [CENTER][URL='https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/loottheroom/the-wretched-second-printing/'][IMG]https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/loottheroom/the-wretched-second-printing/minichart.png[/IMG][/URL] [ATTACH type="full" alt="65 Enchanted Trinkets for D&D 5th Edition.jpg"]125730[/ATTACH][/CENTER] [URL='https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/enworld/65-enchanted-trinkets-for-dandd-5th-edition'][B]65 Enchanted Trinkets for D&D 5th Edition[/B][/URL][B] from [/B][URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/87/EN-Publishing?affiliate_id=814082'][B]EN Publishing[/B][/URL] :dndnext: [LIST] [*][B]END DATE[/B]: Tue, September 15 2020 11:51 AM EDT.

The intention behind this project is to introduce a unique city into your player’s campaign via the introductory adventure, making it a unique setting, perhaps even the base of operations for your players. Superheroes are defined not just by their powers or their rogues’ gallery of villains but also by their surroundings. [B]Superman[/B] wouldn’t be the same character without Metropolis, and putting [B]Batman[/B] into Cleveland just wouldn’t work. A hero’s city is as much a defining characteristic of the hero and their struggle as their powers. In a comic, the city generates plot lines at a hero, generates supporting characters, and builds the drama. [B][I]New Bristol[/I][/B] will help you bring that to your roleplaying experience.
