Digital Adventures at Gen Con 2007!

Digital Adventures, LLC is proud to announce we'll be at this year's Gen Con, along with Fantasy Grounds creators SmiteWorks, with two new products for Fantasy Grounds II at booth #2445. Our new products include:


The Complete SRD for Fantasy Grounds II
An update to our most popular product, the Complete SRD is now available in module form for Fantasy Grounds II. Over 800 pages of information taken directly from the Standard Reference Document and converted to modules of Basic Rules, Monsters, Magical Items, Epic, Psionics, and Spells!

This product will be sold individually for $6.50, and also comes as a package deal with adventures and tokens -- everything needed to get going with Fantasy Grounds -- at a Gen Con special price of $20.00, and will be available to the rest of the Internet after the show.


Savage Worlds Ruleset for Fantasy Grounds II
Our Fantasy Grounds II update to this award-winning RPG product is now available! Everything, and we mean everything, you need to play Savage Worlds is now built directly into our updated interface: card dealing initiatives, wild dice, a card dealing combat tracker, and drag-and-drop dice directly from the character sheet are now possible with this Fantasy Grounds II upgrade!

This product will be sold individually for $12.00, and also comes as a package deal with tokens and two newly converted advetures from PEG, Noble Deceit and Zombie Run, for a Gen Con special price of $25.00 -- and will be available to the rest of the Internet after the show.


Information on upgrades to The Complete SRD and Savage Worlds Ruleset from Fantasy Grounds v1.05f products for existing registered customers will be distributed post-Gen Con.

In addition we'll also be selling an array of other products, include our most popular adventures and token packs that we'll burn for you right there on a CD.


Hope to see you at the show!

Amazing news...

When you say available now, are the links for purchase going up on DA anytime soon?

For those of us unable to go to GENCON, I can't wait to become familiar with the interface and get Savage World Adventures off the ground.

[Waldo Pepper]

I'll second that - I've had my new campaign on hold waiting for the SW ruleset. I'm glad to hear that the wait is nearly over.

Like Thore said:

and will be available to the rest of the Internet after the show.

Show ends on Sunday, so give Thore a few days after that to get things together. And you won't be disappointed!

First of all - very excited about Savage Worlds!

Question 1: Are the SW rules the Explorers Edition rules or the now outdated Savage Worlds Revised rules? A few minor changes were made in the Explorers Edition - are these incorporated into the ruleset?

Question 2: What is the difference between the Complete SRD and the D20 ruleset that came with FG2? I seems like I already have rules, monsters and stuff. What to I get the the Complete SRD that I didn't get with FG2?

Thanks!

The Revised Edition is not outdated (as has been stated by the guys at PEG on their forums). There are minor changes in the SW:EX version of the rules, but we have not incorporated the SW:EX rules into the ruleset - however, the ruleset IS SW:EX compatible (fx: we have made the damage section for Weapons on the Char Sheet "Way of the Brave" compatible).

The CSRD is just that - the Complete SRD. It includes the complete rules as found on the WoTC website.

OK, outdated was a very poor choice of words, unintentionally. The biggest change to the rules as far as I'm concerned that would affect the FG2 implementation is the new damage. I imagine incorporating it into the character sheet will achieve functionality - will I be able to drag the "new" damage values from the combat tracker onto the chat window to have it automatically roll damage the way I currently do with the D20 ruleset?

(Actually, it doesn't matter what you say, I'm still going to buy the darned thing anyway, I'm just curious)

I'm still a bit confused about the CSRD. (I know what the WotC SRD is, I've perused the downloadable files). Do you have a few examples of important things that are included in the new FG2 CSRD product that aren't included in the D20 ruleset that came with the FG2 product?

Thanks again!

Hey no problem

You are able to drag the dice onto the the weapon listings in the NPC sheets/char sheets, then you can drag that entry on to the hotbar to roll. Its really kinda hard to explain. Suffice to say it's easy enough to use

Well...one thing the CSRD has is all the Psionics rules, as well as ALL the monsters, not just a small selection.

Also all combat rules and such from the CSRD, not the brief explanations.

As Thore says, all told its about 800pgs of material, as opposed to the about 150pgs that's in the default set.

[Snikle]

Awesome! Great news for us Savage World players!

The d20 default ruleset is a subset of the SRD. With FG2 it is a larger subset with them adding feats, skills and magic items but still a subset. An example of things not in the default d20 but in the SRD is equipment lists for all equipment (not just weapons and armor), sample traps, the DMG prestige classes and the things Kalan mentioned already: Psionics, Epic, ect.

To get the scope of the differances go to https://www.d20srd.org/index.htm and pretty much anything you see that is not in the default d20 ruleset modules but on the site would also be in the CSRD. The CSRD also includes the information in the default ruleset. It is entended to replace it.
