My Roll for the Rory's Story Cubes PPC Challenge

Here's my Story Cubes roll for the RSCPPC Challenge. This week, I'll begin a very rough outline for a Savage Worlds Plot Point Campaign set in Eberron. I plan to create something that spans Khorvaire and several of the other continents, possibly leading to an epic conclusion in Argonnessen.

Savage Worlds GM Chat: Bennies

+Jerrod Gunning hosted another excellent Google+ Hangout on Air in which I had the opportunity to be a part of a panel that included +Ron Blessing of The Game's the Thing, Smiling Jack's Bar and Grill, and RolePlay DNA, and +Robert Brumbelow. The topic for this chat was bennies in Savage Worlds and the variety of ways we use them in our own games. It was a blast, and I really enjoyed talking Savage Worlds with the group.

Rory's Story Cubes Plot Point Campaign Challenge

I've posted before about how the Savage Worlds Plot Point Campaign (PPC) model would work well for Eberron. I also recently purchased a set of Rory's Story Cubes and Rory's Story Cubes - Voyages set. Then I realized that it might be entirely possible to create an outline for a PPC using Rory's Story Cubes.

With that in mind, I came up with the Rory's Story Cubes Plot Point Campaign Challenge.

Rewriting the Loot Generator

I've been working on rewriting my unofficial Savage Worlds Fantasy Companion Loot Generator to update it to the 2nd printing of the Fantasy Companion. During this process, I'm converting it from PHP back to JavaScript to decrease latency while also taking a more object-oriented approach to its structure. The idea is to distinctly separate the data from the scripting and repurpose as much of the code as possible across the various tables.

Playing Tokens Kickstarter Project

I came across a really interesting Kickstarter Project for a set of playing cards printed on tokens. Playing Tokens by All the King's Games are plastic, abrasion resistant tokens with a full deck of cards printed across the set. I don't know about you, but I think these tokens have Savage Worlds written all over them. I can think of at least half a dozen use cases for these, especially in a Savage Worlds game.

Savage Eberron: Three-Dragon Ante Action Deck

For the longest time, I've always wanted to use the original Three-Dragon Ante deck of cards as an Action Deck for a Savage Eberron game, but I had a hard time figuring out how to use the cards.

Until now!

Savage Eberron Plot Point Campaign

One of the reasons I had chosen to take a break from Savage Eberron was because I was struggling with finding a focal point for the campaign I was running for my players. It seemed some were interested in specific aspects while disinterested in others, and there was only a small amount of common ground among those aspects of interest. Eberron offers a lot of diversity in subject matter, themes, and adventure styles. In hindsight, perhaps my mistake was to make the campaign more like a sandbox rather than a Plot Point Campaign.
