The Pinnacle Entertainment Group is planning a spring 2007 release for The Savage World of Solomon Kane, a role-playing game based on the adventures of the pistol-packing, black-clad Puritan demon-smasher created by legendary fantasy author Robert E. Howard.  The game's initial release will be a full color 256-page book written by Shane Lacy Hensley and Paul Wade Williams with a cover by Matt Wilson of Privateer Press.

 

The Savage World of Solomon Kane will utilize the Savage Worlds rules, a universal generic RPG system created by Shane Lacy Hensley that emphasizes preparation and speed of play over minute detail.  Last year WizKids decided to allow Pinnacle to utilize the Savage Worlds rules to create RPGs based on the Pirates, MageKnight, and Rocketmen CSGs and CMGs (see 'WizKids Awards RPG Rights to Pinnacle').
