About the project:
The science fiction genre is MASSIVE… like space itself! It encompasses everything from dystopian tales of a grim near-future to star-hopping tales of far-flung galactic adventure.
The Savage Worlds Science Fiction Companion allows you to emulate ANY sci-fi world from games, books, movies, and television OR those of your own creation. It includes Fast! Furious! Fun! rules for over a dozen new ancestries, starships and space travel, air, land, and sea vehicles, giant war-walkers, cyberware, robots, exploration gear, weapons, armor, transhumanism, netrunning, Arcane Backgrounds, and Setting Rules to help you run everything from space opera to the hardest sci-fi. And like all our Companions, it contains a VAST menagerie of strange and alien creatures to fight or befriend, including xenos, evil empires, and fellow travelers!
This 200+ page hardcover book updates the original Science Fiction Companion to be completely compatible with the Savage Worlds Adventure Edition. Here’s what you’ll find inside:
- New CHARACTER ancestries, options, Edges, and Hindrances for everything from star-spanning humans to most any alien creature you can imagine.
- Customizable AND premade suits of power armor, starships, and vehicles of all sorts. You can make anything from the Mercury capsule to world-wrecking behemoths!
- Pages of new and updated GEAR to help you run the dystopian streets or exotic planets, and a MASSIVE arsenal of weapons and armor!
- An all-new EVENT BASED system for quickly and easily running chases, dogfights, or vehicular shootouts!
- Narrative Outpost rules, the sci-fi take on the narrative system first introduced in the Super Powers Companion! Build a unique base for your party in the heart of a dying star, the drifting ruins of a space hulk, or the penthouse of a crowded industrial city.
- New SETTING RULES for everything from netrunning to starship combat to transhumanism AND a whole new simplified system for handling massive vehicular weapons and vehicular armor we call HEAVY METAL!!!
- Brand new arcane backgrounds, psionic abilities, and even psychically powered weapons!
- A HUGE bestiary of scoundrels, xenos, monsters, and evil empires to challenge!
- Dozens of strange and alien artifacts to discover!
