About this project

This project is in need of interior art. Please fund this product so that we can commission the interior art for the final product.This book is a setting guide and plot point campaign setting for the versatile Savage Worlds game engine.

This book is based on the Double Spiral War Trilogy by Warren C. Norwood (available on Amazon.com and RPGnow.com). The work will contain information about the aliens, starships, planets and backgrounds from the novels. While not necessary to play, you may get more out of the setting reading the novels prior to playing the setting.

In some pledge levels we are including a free e-copy of the Trilogy for you to peruse while waiting on your copy of the RPG material.

Thank you for your support on this project.

_____________________________

When mankind left behind their old home to seek out new lands beyond the dark spaces between galaxies, they hoped to leave behind them the conflict and chaos that has been their heritage since they first spoke tales of their histories.  However, it wasn’t as easy as that. Even amongst alien species, mankind still found cause to war amongst itself. Several decades before, the Sondak Federation  worried about the growing power of the United Central Systems, a group dominated by humans genetically modified to have a much longer life span.  As a result, they launched a war that waged for years tearing at both societies until finally they forced the UCS to accept humiliating terms in exchange for peace. The Sondak is complacent and unaware that the UCS is on the verge of finally seeking vengeance for the previous war.  And in the churning wake of these two giants, all the races of the galaxy and the lives of many individuals shall be turned upside down.  But the question is, whose vengeance is being sought?  That of a nation’s?  Or that of a single person?
