Curse of the Crimson Throne and Advanced Player's Guide coming to Pathfinder for Savage Worlds

 I haven't found a direct page to link to, but in my email newsletter from Pinnacle Entertainment they indicated that a new Kickstarter is coming for the Savage Worlds edition of Pathfinder, and its a doozy, with the following items to be included in this new Kickstarter (copy/pasted from the email):

  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Advanced Player’s Guide
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Curse of the Crimson Throne – Book 1
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Curse of the Crimson Throne – Book 2
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Curse of the Crimson Throne – Book 3
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Curse of the Crimson Throne – Book 4
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Curse of the Crimson Throne – Book 5
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Curse of the Crimson Throne – Book 6
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Guide to Korvosa
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Crimson Throne Handouts
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Harrow Deck
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Crimson Throne Adversary Cards Set
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Archetype Set 3
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Archetype Set 4
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Curse of the Crimson Throne Poster Map
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Ally and Adversary Cards Set 2
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds: Ally and Adversary Cards Set 3
  • Pathfinder® for Savage Worlds Advanced Power Cards

That's a lot of Pathfinder goodness, and gives me keen hopes that Pathfinder for Savage Worlds isn't just a useful book set for the SWADE rules, but will have viable legs in its own right as a "D&Desque" system that provides a distinctly alternative ruleset to the now very long in the tooth legacy of D20 era RPGs.

The Advanced Player's Guide in particular will include inquisitors, witches, oracles, alchemists, cavaliers and summoners as new edge classes (SWPF treats classes as uniquely packaged starting edges). That's going to greatly expand the available flavors to the system. Now fingers crossed they will eventually include a Savaged up Bestiary 2!
