Horror woks fine in a Fantasy setting, back with original D&D we played a lot of horror-flavoured adventures.Savage World would work pretty well for it. The Fantasy Companion is back in print and designed for easy cross-patching with the Horror Companion!https://www.peginc.com/the-fantasy-companion-returns/
Pulp Alley is easy to work through and now has horror decks.
There's a set of rules called Pike & Shot AND Zombies, set in a TYW/ECW-like setting.
Isn't Pike & Shot more in 16th century? I am more interested in 9th-12th century^^. Sry for the question, but what does TYW/ECW mean?
Do I need the savage worlds mainrulebook for this? I remember that there is something like a mainrulebook, but maybe I am wrong?
Thirty Years War/English Civil War - but it means it has rules for swords and armour and the likes.Have you tried combining Fear and Faith with Song of Blades and Heroes (same engine)?
Yes, there is a core rulebook for the generic game engine, and then the companion books are supplements that add specific flavours. I haven't played the Horror one, but I've found the Fantasy system works very well for tactical dungeon skirmishes, each player controlling a party of 5 adventurers each party entering a big dungeon from different points, monsters in combat are controlled by any player sitting next to the one whose party is fighting them. I trust the Horror companion would work quite well in conjunction with the Fantasy.
Thanks for the info . No, but I will try it.Ah okay, i knew it XD. Is there a big difference between deluxe version and gentlemen version?Btw can someone tell me the difference between this?https://www.peginc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/gjpg1-e1334100640572.jpg and thishttps://www.p3comix.at/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/horror.pngThere are also two different looking fantasy companion books? Which is the newer one? BTW do i need the action and adventure cards?
I only have the Deluxe [Adventurer's] Edition. Adventurer's editions are just smaller paperback versions of the larger hardcovers, no other difference. I don't have any cards or decks, and when I've played in games at conventions, the GMs weren't using any. So I would say they are not necessary. ^,^I am not familiar with the Gentleman's Edition. A quick google search now is only showing me posts written in German. The 2 links you posted for the Horror Companion, one of them appears to be the German edition.For the Fantasy Companion, the covers look the same, you want to be sure it's the Second Printing, the title page should read Copyright 2009, 2012. Looking at the full-size preview on RPGNow, they have the recent one.http://www.rpgnow.com/product/64257/Savage-Worlds-Fantasy-Companion
