With the recent announcement about Savage Worlds Rifts, I pulled out my copy of the Savage Worlds Deluxe Explorer's Edition, along with the few other Savage Worlds books that I own. I thought it would be a good idea to refresh my knowledge of the Savage Worlds system and maybe start working on building a Campaign. The Rifts edition isn't due out until Christmas, and I know delays may happen, but with my schedule being so crazy with real life obligations and such, starting sooner rather than later, is probably a good idea.
At one time I had a few other Savage Worlds books, but this is my current collection. I just picked up the Sci Fi Companion this week and am still reading it over. The Darwin's World books are from an earlier edition of Savage Worlds, so I may have to do a bit of conversion work for those two (anyone know of a conversion document that updates stuff to Deluxe?, I think Guts was one of the bigger changes). The white book with the upside down flag is Planet MF'er, a damn cool book with some jacked up stuff in it. I can see a fun campaign with just this collection of books. : )
With all the cool Sci Fi stuff coming out this summer and fall; movies, T.V., etc, I may try to run some space opera stuff this summer to prep for the awesomeness of Rifts. Trey's Strange Stars is a great system neutral sourcebook, and Mike over at the WrathofZombie blog has been doing some great Savage Worlds conversions! And if I need to throw some Marvel aliens into the mix, my buddy Giles over at the Worlds Galore blog has been posting a bunch of cool Savage Worlds write-ups, Thanos anyone?
Anyways just a random Sunday afternoon post. Hope everyone is having a good weekend.
Now back to the books!

Rifts Savage Worlds!
Rifts is coming to Savage Worlds!!!
The announcement today really knocked my socks off! I'm excited and quite hopeful about this one. I loved playing Rifts back in the day, but the system just doesn't work for me these days, especially character creation. My gaming schedule is hectic and crazy at best, non-existent at worst, time is a very hot commodity around these parts. Savage Worlds is Fast, Furious and Fun and Rifts as a setting is just Awesome! This is all kinds of chocolate in my peanut butter... course I'm a diabetic so I'm definitely in trouble with this one!
I'm soo ready for this!!
