OK, folks, it looks like they want to make this an Official Setting file, like Deadlands and the others. That means full distribution through Hero Lab when it's ready. It also means that I'll need to review the completed file before release. Knight, I'll get you a copy of the specifications for naming and such.
Here's the good part. This means if we need to make changes in the Hero Lab code to support this, we can. So, this is official clearance to find way to support multiple Arcane Backgrounds. What else has been tough to fit? _ Currently In Development: Savage Pathfinder, SWADE Fantasy Companion Future Development: SWADE Super Powers Companion, SWADE Sci-Fi Companion _ Currently Running: Savage Unity Inc.

Oh thank Zeus,
This project was a nightmare and a half here is just a few of the items I had issues with. Heroic Journey tables there like edges but not drove me up 5 types of walls. They need to be there own thing. An easy way to add 2 generic Knowledge skills at d8. Iconic Frameworks are like races only not. IM me for some ideas for fixing these. Thanks, |

Why would Groups or Factions not work for Iconic Framework?

How are they not like Edges (Heroic Journey tables)?

I've never played Rifts, this is all new to me.

OK, who is the contact for this? Dartnet, are you the one working on it currently? For some reason, I had thought it was TCArknight.

According to this thread Dartnet had to hand over the primary reigns to TCArknight who has consolidated the work being done and started a Git to coordinate the work over at: https://github.com/TCArknight/Savage-Rifts, if that helps.

OK, it's even more than I thought.
They are looking to go full Companion book level on this one. That means I take it over and we do a full-blown write-up, with full integrated support. That means that Iconic Frameworks should have their own thing, and we'll fully build out the Journey tables. _ Currently In Development: Savage Pathfinder, SWADE Fantasy Companion Future Development: SWADE Super Powers Companion, SWADE Sci-Fi Companion _ Currently Running: Savage Unity Inc.
