Savage Worlds stats for Reaper Bones
« on: March 07, 2013, 07:05:52 AM »
Hi everyone!

as many other members of LAF, i'm gonna receive soon (well, realistically more than a month from now) a Vampire pledge level of the Reaper Kickstarter.

For everyone who doesn't know it, it is a huge pack of plastic fantasy miniatures, approximately 240, for around a hundred quids.
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1513061270/reaper-miniatures-bones-an-evolution-of-gaming-min


here's the point. I'm now using the Savage worlds rules for various skirmishes, and now i gotta be prepared for a new income of minis. It would be great, for that time, to have the stats for each of them ready on a sheet, like character of a skirmis game.
Do you LAFers know of anything that started some project like this? Am I the only one for the moment?


Thanks,
Jack

Have you thought about using some of the rules from the fantasy conversions from sites like this.

http://www.savageheroes.com/otherrpgs.htm

It would give you a basis to start from. It might save a bit of work for you.

Cheers.

The Savage Worlds Fantasy Companion has more monster and human archetype stats, and you can always poke around the official adventures.

The Deluxe rulebook has, I believe, more stats for NPC characters - it's about £4 at the moment on the DriveThruRPG GM Day sale.

Many of the settings books also have expanded stats for monsters and NPCs - Solomon Kane and Pirates of the Spanish Main are good in this respect.  Maybe check out Evernight for fantasy (although I've never seen it!)- again DriveThruRPG is your friend at the moment.

Pre-Fantasy Companion, there were several monster and spell compendiums - GeorgeD's Savage Heroes suggestion is a good one.

A lot of the work has already been done, there are several Fantasy companions and kits available.
Some of the ones listed on DreadPirates link are good, but many have not been updated for the revised Savage rule editions or for Fantasy Grounds 2.

The "official" ones are here:

Look especially for the "toolkit" volumes.

interesting indeed, thanks! All of those links are extremely helpful.

What i was looking though was a list of stats for each of the bones figures. I know it's lazy, but there are 240 of those and... well, i guess i will have to "choose" the right and balanced stats for each =)

while waiting for the minis, i started the very first experiment for sculpting a modular dungeon set.

I know that there are many around, but most of them are too much cartoonish, and ... well, i wanted one mine! :)

I put a thread on the Reaper Forum, hoping for help :)

There's always the Savage Bestiary.  A free document put together by some folks on the Pinnacle Forums.  Hosted on Google Docs:

Here's the thread from the forum (you probably need to log in to view):

http://www.peginc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=255632

Has lots of the usual fantasy creature types in it (not sure what is in the Reaper Bones package, as I completely missed the offer!)

That's nice, thank you for the link (and the forum doesn't need a login)!


here's a guy trying to do the same for Heroquest, might worth checking!

http://www.reapermini.com/forum/index.php?/topic/48732-beyond-heroquest-for-bones/

with the related google drive link: https://drive.google.com/#folders/0B_dGQQhS2y0vMmowZHFUN3F5dU0

That's really interesting, i've to say!



Beside of that, i'll try various rulesets, but i'm pretty happy with Savage worlds, and i'll keep it as first choice. I'll probably make my cards, in a future. :)

My friends, sorry for the threadomancy, but apparently someone did what i meant to do (and never did):


http://savagereaperbones.blogspot.it/


That is a GREAT initiative, and comments and support should be given to him! :)

Wow, that is an impressive amount of work and the stats are fine for any similar fantasy types not just the Bones models (particularly useful as I missed out on the Reaper KS :-X )

Final races is on.

My Reaper shipment has arrived in Houston.

Unfortunately thats so my nephews get half of it and then My sister when she gets back from the UK will send the rest on.

Since I'm down to about 23 stat blocks. I should complete before being buried in stuff to paint.

Then August and September bring Sedition Wars Wave two and Zombicide Season 2. And I have painting for years.

Well I'm down to four statblocks. None of them for creatures from the kickstarter.

Still to go: Sarcophagus, Burning Sphere, and Barnabas and the Gost from the original bones.

And with the last two done that is it until the next bones kickstarter. Unless I forgot something.
