Game Summary

From the publisher's website:
This Savage realm of Suzerain is the tale of the 1930s Great Depression as you’ve never experienced it. For Heroic rank characters who are feeling particularly heroic, Noir Knights is part of our American Grit realm, where government agents investigate paranormal activity across a hard boiled film noir America.

Whether it’s a supernatural swampland encounter in Florida or otherworldly conspiracies in the corridors of power, the truth is out there – just waiting for your characters to find it. Industry and legend clash in a time of folk heroes, hobo mages, and secret societies.

America is a nation of dust and determination.
Ride the rails and prove your mettle.

  • Everything you’ll need to run games in a supernatural 1930s.

3 + 5San Dee Jota. Noir Knights is a pulp-action setting of Depression-era investigators facing horrible conspiracies and blowing them up as part of their patriotic duty. And it's pretty dang good to boot.
5 + 4Tommy Brownell. It does provide a high-powered smackdown of Very Bad Guys who are trying to destroy the very fabric of America with Necro-Bombs and stuffed government officials possessed by Giant Dragon Demons whose plans are being held at bay by hobo wizards that time-traveled to ensure that the railroad system was a giant protective sigil. If loving that is wrong, I don't wanna be right.
