Savage Rifts
Return to Savage Worlds
Savage Rifts is a fun adaptation of Rifts (a great setting) to Savage Worlds (a great system). It maintains a reasonable balance between the iconic frameworks; you can have a glitter boy and a scholar in the same party and actually come up with situations that threaten the former without slaughtering the latter. Somehow, it manages to be thoroughly over-the-top without being broken. These resources help expand the game.
Does your gaming group need something (unofficially!) custom-converted from Palladium to Savage Worlds? I'm happy to do it for very reasonable rates! Hit me up at pkitty@mygurps.com.
