Hello fellow Pubbers!
For my first Pub One Shot of 2023 I’d like to pitch The Day After Ragnarok (Savage Worlds edition).
System: Savage Worlds
Suggested Dates: Either Sunday January 29th or Sunday February 12th, whichever date attracts sufficient players to make a go of it.
Time: 18:00 GMT (13:00 EST, 19:00 CET )
Tech: Pub's Discord Channel #game
The Day After Ragnarok (DAR) is a totally crazy, pulp/post-apocalyptic setting. It describes itself as “submachine guns and sorcery”.
In the closing days of WWII, Hitler summons the Midgard Serpent. Truman responds using the atomic bomb to kill the serpent and the world goes to hell as a result. Europe is largely gone, crushed under the massive serpent's corpse (it’s a really, really big, continent-sized serpent). Stalin has cut a deal with the Frost Giants. Australia is now at the head of the British Empire and, at the time the game starts, the world’s experienced something like 3 years of nuclear winter. It is not a terribly serious setting, least of all if I am running it.
The game will focus on the Canadian northern wilderness. The party will be an expedition made up of Mounties, specialists, pardoned convicts and anyone who can be persuaded to sign up. Apologies in advance to any Canadians - this is bound to be the fakest, least researched version of Canada you've ever encountered.
If you aren’t familiar with Savage Worlds, don’t worry, all you need to know is contained in this cartoon Savage Worlds Rules | Up to Four Players. To be honest, I am still a bit of a Savage Worlds newbie myself.
II will create some pregenerated characters. Players familiar with Savage Worlds can create their own characters if they wish to. To keep things simple, I will only be using the rules from SWADE. Arcane Backgrounds Magic and Weird Science are allowed.
Please sign up below if your interested or have any questions and indicate any date preferences. Tagging Pub One Shot regulars Stan and Fenris-77 in case they are interested as they always lift the tone of these One Shots.
