Introducing: Savage Worlds Online!
Digital Adventures, LLC and Pinnacle Entertainment Group are proud to present Savage Worlds Online, a new
community designed to support and bring together gamers using the Savage Worlds Ruleset for Fantasy Grounds II to
play their favorite Savage setting online with friends across the globe!
At the moment Savage Worlds Online (SWO) supports a forum for everything Savage World and Fantasy Grounds, and
a gaming calendar for linking up with other SWO members to find or host a game. There will also be product giveaways
from Savage Worlds licensees, gaming and development blogs, officially sponsored PEG events, product support,
gaming advise, and all great geekness associated with the Savage Worlds setting from Australia to Denmark to England
to Arizona!
In the future they'll also be a live chat area for players to form ad hoc games, officially sponsored organized play events,
discounts on SW Fantasy Grounds downloads and other Savage Worlds products, and much more down the road.
"We're extremely excited about the launch of the Savage Worlds Ruleset for Fantasy Grounds II," said Shane Hensley,
CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment Group. "Our typical customers are in their mid twenties to late forties, and can't always
get together with their gaming friends due to work, families, or simple distance. Digital Adventures provides them with the
tools they need to play online, and a central meeting area to find new players and adventures to share. I think this marks
a new era in roleplaying, and we're very excited to be on the cutting edge of it."
Savage May!
The launch of Savage Worlds Online also begins a month-long dedication to expanding the scope of products available
to play Savage Worlds with the Fantasy Grounds software. The first release will be the long-awaited code update to the
Savage Worlds Ruleset for Fantasy Grounds II. This update will be made available free to all registered buyers of the
Savage Worlds Ruleset (for FGII), as well as updated versions of the two released Savage Tales adventure conversions.
Some of the changes to for this updated ruleset code include updated NPC and vehicle interfaces, a shared combat
tracker, and additional options for types of dice (and Wild Dice) to be rolled. All of these changes were requested by
customers to overall enhance the playability of Savage Worlds using Fantasy Grounds.
In addition to the code update to the ruleset, they'll be at least three more Savage Tales adventure released, a minimum
of two official Savage Worlds campaign settings, and there is a chance they may "Explore" other possibly releases as
well (hint, hint!).
Lastly, for anyone that buys a Savage Worlds product for Fantasy Grounds in the month of May (back dated to May 1st,
Digital Adventures' store only) gets in a drawing to win a free printed copy of the newly released campaign setting for
Solomon Kane -- yes, that gorgeous black book that is nominated for an Origins Award! Your name can only be entered
once regardless of how many products you purchase, and downloads of the Savage Worlds Ruleset Update are
excluded from this contest. Just click on the STORE button at the Savage Worlds Online website to get to our online
