[Mystical Throne Entertainment] Ultimate Knights Templar Guide
Author: Charles White
Pages: 67
Price: €4,42 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)


Everyone who has ever played a fantasy tabletop RPG has heard of the holy warriors known as paladins. Paladins are holy knights that wade into battle armed with sword, shield, and faith. They obediently go wherever they are needed to protect the faith and serve the faithful. They have great martial prowess and potent faith-based powers. In many games, paladins also observe a strict chivalric code while maintaining vows of poverty and chastity.

However, paladins aren't simply the stuff of legends. In actuality, paladins were very real. Following the First Crusade, knights banded together to serve the needs of the faith and the faithful. They lived the life of a monk while simultaneously following the path of a warrior. These warrior-monks formed a highbred of monastic life that was termed Military Orders. The most famous of these orders was the Knights Templar.

Ultimate Knights Templar Guide is a sourcebook for Savage Worlds that delves into the world of the Knights Templar from a historical and in-game aspect. The Knights Templar were the ultimate paladins during the Crusades who fought tooth and nail to reclaim the Holy Land. Their Order was shrouded in conspiracy and all of this results in excellent role-playing opportunities.

Ultimate Knights Templar Guide includes:

* A brief history of the Knights Templar.
* Ranks of Templar knights.
* A listing of grand masters.
* Options for creating Templar characters.
* Gear utilized by the Knights Templar.
* Non-player Characters.
* Templar adventures.
... and more!

Ultimate Knights Templar Guide is your source for building Templar knights like those from the Crusades, or building the foundations of an alternate history set in the backdrop of the Crusades and the struggles to reclaim the Holy Land.

Adamant Entertainment presents four tales of intrigue and adventure beneath the moons of Mars! For use with our Savage Worlds setting of sword-and-planet action, the MARS Adventure Omnibus collects the following adventures, previously only available in PDF, in print for the first time.

• FACE OF MARS: The heroes brave the perils and uncover the ancient secrets of the tomb of the legendary Emperor of Mars, a vast structure fashioned in his own image!  Yet the truth of Emperor Noldes Bartarigan's tomb is far stranger than the legends that are told...

• BLOOD LEGACY OF MARS: When an impoverished noble discovers a royal birthmark on a wastrel poet and playwright, he immediately knows what it means: he has a way back into Baltan high society, Coat-tailing on the mysterious Prince's fame as deposed royalty! Unfortunately for this patron of the arts, there are political forces who would see his protege dead -- and other political forces who would use him as a figurehead for a Royalist counter-revolution! Enter the heroes, as friends or asssociates of the poet or his patron, caught in a web of intrigue, assassination and violence: the dangers of the Blood Legacy of Mars!

• SELL-SWORDS OF MARS: The heroes are working as mercenaries, seeking adventure among the lesser independent cities of Mars.  When an attack dams up the only canal of the city of Pi-Ramesh, the city's young Queen hires these Sell-Swords of Mars to come to her aid as the city's lifeblood dries up.  Can the heroes stop the onslaught of a seemingly unstoppable enemy, and save the weakened city?   This adventure comes with the bonus Warriors of Mars miniatures rules, for use with the free-to-download Savage Worlds SHOWDOWN system from Pinnacle!

• SOUL-THIEVES OF MARS: The heroes are hired by a trade caravan as guards, and travel to the city of Ban Ma Terril.  One of the merchants of the city warns them that something is going on -- people in the city have begun to act strangely: Hollow, as if their very wills were not their own... as if someone or something had stolen their very souls! The investigation will lead to mystery, intrigue and murder, as the heroes are drawn into the machinations of a secret society that threatens the entire Red Planet!

[TAG] Hellfrost LoF Realm Guide #21: The Free Emirate States
Author: Paul "Wiggy" Wade-Williams
Pages: 60
Prices: €11,01 (TAG Store); €12,22 (DriveThruRPG/RPGNow)   

Of the three great human realms, it is the Free Emirate States that actually comes closest to fulfilling Suleiman’s vision. Only a fool would deny there are problems, but here at least citizens of both creeds live side by side in peace in harmony. For the most part, people are judged by their skills, not the method in which they choose to worship the higher powers. The Emirates holds much promise, for here anyone can rise to a position of great influence and authority. So welcome, noble traveler, to a realm that boasts of being a gateway to both the deserts of Al-Shirkuh and the frozen land of Rassilon.

Introduction
This 10 page section covers general information concerning the Emirates and its people. Inside you’ll find details on Social Hierarchy, Education, Religion, Military, Law & Order, Trade & Tribute, Major Locales , and Persons of Note.

The Cities
Each of the six great cities receives 8 dedicated pages. We cover the same topics above, but with a specific focus on how they apply with each city. Dozens of new locations provide you with plenty of places to visit, explore, and shop! Will you search for the Tombs of the Thief Lords? Does the dust of the desert need washing away at the Marid’s Fountain? Perhaps you waould care to meet the natives of Jinn Town?

The Guild of Headsmen
This two page section expands the material on the Guild of Headsmen, with information for GMs and players alike!

Sidebars
But there is yet more, oh benificent master of the golden coin! The author has provided further information through the use of sidebars! Here are such thing as the types of clothing found in Al-Shirkuh, a guide to cleanliness, a discussion on who or what created the relics, typical soldiers and the cost of hiring an army, common phrases involving the jinn, and new Edges.

Since the new Land of Fire supplement is out and we’re as happy as an ifrit in a bonfire we’re giving you a location for free so you can see the sort of goodness inside the Guide.

Mostak’s Medicines: Mostak sells herbal remedies and alchemical healing potions, all of which he creates himself. Oddly, he isn’t a cleric or a mage. A former adventurer, he unearthed a collection of alchemical texts from a Hekatic tomb, along with highly specialized arcane laboratory equipment. The texts revealed a dark and terrible formulae—the secrets of how to create healing remedies from human organs. Utterly immoral, Mostak went into business when advancing old age ended his adventuring career. His raw materials come from unfortunates he kidnaps and murders.

SNEAK PEEK

This is Kudret the Untouchable, a sand goblin entrepreneur and self-appointed crime lord, for a Land of Fire project (Al-Korsar -- Ed.) currently in development. Planned for a summer 2015 release (no Kickstarter), so start saving those pennies, folks!
