A new Savage Worlds setting from Bumblebear Games looks to be pretty interesting. Guardians of Umbra mixes WWII with fantasy elements to provide a world where creatures of myth and legend have streamed into our reality, circa the early 1940’s. Both the core book and Game Master’s Guide are available in PDF from DriveThruRPG for $10.00 each.’
From Bumblebear Games:
In the madness of World War II, a new power arises. Their Tesla-inspired technology creates fearsome and powerful new weapons on the battlefield. Abacklash from a Tesla Arc opens a portal to the realm of Umbra, from which monsters of fairytale and legend return to Earth. Long ago, these creatures suffered being hunted and killed by humanity, and now they claim humans have captured their goddess. They are the aos sí, and they have returned for vengeance.
The Guardians of Umbra core book contains everything needed for players to create an aos sí from one of twelve races, each with their own unique abilities. With new Edges, Hindrances, spells, and gear, the player can take the fight to the corrupt Tesla Corps and reclaim Earth.
This book includes an all new Arcane Background, the Viscomancer. Collect parts from the bodies of your fallen foes to empower your magic. Enchant new relics to empower your adventures or steal the Tesla Tech weapons from your enemies and unleash a wave of electrical annihilation.
Then there’s the Guardians of Umbra Game Master’s Guide.
Tesla-punk zombies, Nazi’s, and feral monsters are the least of a hero’s problems when there are dark omens on the horizon…
This Game Master’s Guide for Guardians of Umbra contains unique locations and intriguing people for countries across the Earth and Umbra. This book also contains random encounter charts that can be used to challenge even the most cunning players. The tides of battle change when the heroes find powerful artifacts located within, or doom themselves as a cursed relic reveals its true nature and destroys them.
A game master can run their players through the all-new Dark Omens Plot Points Campaign, taking their heroes from Novice to Veteran, as they uncover dark secrets and attempt to save both worlds. With a collection of unique antagonists, this campaign adds to the Bestiary, which contains nearly forty new antagonists and allies.
