Neue PlotPoint-Kampagne
Interessant was Andreas ausgegraben hat. Pinnacle Games wird im laufe des Jahres Space 1889: Red Sands, eine komplette Plot-Point-Kampagne im Universum von “Space 1889″ veröffentlichen. Das interessante für deutsche Fans dabei ist das der Uhrwerk-Verlag ein Unterlabel von Ullises Spiele eben genau dieses Rollenspiel herausbringt mit neuer Regelmechanik. Diese fußt auf dem von Exile Game Studios entwickelten Ubiquity-System und findet Einsatz beim Rollenspiel-System Hollow Earth Expedition. Savage Worlds hingegen kommt, wie einigen mittlerweile bekannt sein dürfte bei Prometheus Games zur RPC herraus. Ob sich da vielleicht eine Kooperation entstehen könnte?
Dazu heißt es:

Art Sampler
The art on the left is only half the cover! The amazing Christophe Swal is putting the final touches on the rest and we’ll reveal it to you as soon as it’s done.We’ll also post some of the interior art by the phenomenal Richard Clark over the next few months.
Following the Clues
Special thanks to all those who have followed our clues. As you guessed, Shane’s initial hint was the „…1,899 pages of red tape…“ found in the PEG2009 update here.The second was a post on the forums (here) where Shane said the product was already written and wouldn’t „…fade into the ether…“ (The „aether“ is the space between planets in Space 1889.)
The next clues were dropped by Clint Black, who said „…lift would…“ on „The Game’s the Thing“ podcast # 51: Savage Supers Showcase. (Lift wood is an important part of Space 1899.)
We know we drive you nuts with this stuff sometimes, but it’s a lot of fun for us and we greatly appreciate all those who play along!
