Ravaged Earth

A pulp adventure setting in an alternate 1936, decades after the Martian invasion of 1898 introduced the science-altering metal Aetherium. Secret societies, masked avengers, eldritch powers, Tommy guns, and exotic ruins shape a world where cinematic fiction has entered everyday life. The book adds new Edges, Hindrances, setting rules, character archetypes, and period slang for creating pulp heroes. Game Master material covers villains, secret societies, locations, adventure design, and a random adventure generator. An introductory adventure is included, with play requiring Savage Worlds, dice, cards, and a group.
