The Savage World of Solomon Kane (Savage Worlds; S2P10400) Hardcover – October 29, 2007

I bought this book quite a while ago and it sat in the back of my closet since I buy a ton of stuff and this was a bit forgotten for a while. Opened it up and gave it a read and then a play through and well all I can say is WoW, I can't believe I did not jump into this right away!. This is a beautiful bound hardback edition of a RPG based on the character Solomon Kane created by Robert E Howard the creator of Conan the Barbarian.. It's a huge book filled with high quality production values and top notch art and writing. It's based on the Savage Worlds system and includes all of the rules you will need to play with, no other books are necessary (thought the Savage Foes of Solomon Kane the creature book is a nice companion to this book but not at all essential to enjoying this product) The system is fast, fun and well not feeling like completely repeating Pinnacle's slogan pretty simple to run and play. It contains not only all the rules one needs to play in it's entirety but it also contains a whole plot point campaign for you to run or play in.. as well as an extended bestiary. My only, single caveat with this book is the plot point campaign while very good has too much emphasis put on following Solomon Kane's footsteps and I would have preferred that the campaign be just about the pc's and not the settings main protagonist, that criticism aside this game is awesome and I totally recommend this to any fan of Robert E Howard, Solomon Kane or Swashbuckling adventure!

This game has been my first time dm'ing a dnd style game night, and so far it;s been a blast. The cool artwork and quests show that the creator's really took the time to read the books and recreate kane's world. If your a Soloman Kane fan, or a neard looking for a new game system, you can go wrong here.

Savage Worlds adaptation really captures the spirit of R.E. Howard's universe.More than enough creative ideas and information to continue and expand the Solomon Kane experience.

There are really two great books here. One is the  Savage Worlds  core rules, a superb book, and my current favorite system. There are various minor rule changes specific to this particular game world.The second is a great sourcebook for the works of  Robert E. Howard , author of the Conan series, and of Solomon Kane. Many of the scenarios from the stories can be seen in the adventure material.I believe both of these are great books. Unfortunately, these really should have been two separate books.A gamemaster who already has the Core Rules has just spent $20 extra. Also, if they have invested time in the Core Rules, they need to devote extra time to figure out the minor changes for this system. The world sourcebook is useful.A player for the game has just spent $30 extra for the adventure sourcebook that they shouldn't read. If they don't buy it and stick with the core rules, the poor gamemaster will need to go over the minor difference between rulebooks.This is a gorgeous, well-made book. The Core Rules should have been left out from it, though, and just had a few pages of "differences". The Gamemaster could photocopy these 4-6 pages, and the players would be up to speed. I do hope that no more of these "combined" books come out.

Exactly as advertised!Howard’s Solomon Kane brought to life in the game world!

Elegant and Awesome game! one of the Savage Worlds product lines best.

Good campaign and lots of good information

Great quality and fantastic condition.

Great self-contained rules using the Savage Worlds system to role play in the grim date world of Robert E. Howard's Solomon Kane. Adventure hooks and sample adversaries also included.The self-contained nature means even though the latest Savage Worlds Adventure Edition rules exist, you do not require that separate book to play this.
