Greetings!

This is just a reminder that the holiday sale for all Harsh Realities products ends on January 1.

If you picked up the Sixcess Quickstart Ruleset and you'd like to pick up Sixcess Core at a significantly reduced price, now's your chance!

Sixcess Core PDF is 55+% off.

The full ruleset that includes all the extras, full-color illustration with all the rules for character creation, nuances and tricks for character combat, social combat, vehicle combat, power creation (magic, psionics, chi, superpowers, etc.), NPCs, Critters, Villains, game examples and character creation examples – 300 pages of gaming yummy. (We'll be updating Sixcess Core with some errata corrections in the near future. When we update it, you'll receive the PDF updates for free.)

Invasion of the Fourth Reich PDF is 10% off.

The first mini-setting / adventure for Sixcess that includes the details of an invasion of our universe from another dimension by Nazis who won WWII in their dimension. It is designed for Sixcess Core, but is easily translated to other gaming systems (this is one of our goals with all our settings, because we don't want to restrict gaming creativity – consider this mini-setting to be BYOS (Bring Your Own System).

Sixcess Core GM Screen PDF is 40% off.

Contains all the charts and tables from the Sixcess Core book, conveniently located into three easy-to-read pages. It is designed to work with the vinyl tri-fold GM screen sold by Studio 2. Artwork and tables are included.  (We intend to expand this offering in 2014 with some add-ons. When we update it, you'll receive the PDF updates for free.)

Sixcess Core Character Sheet is free!

This is the basic character sheet for Sixcess Core.  Again, we intend to beef up this offering in the near future.  It's free – and the updates will also be free.



It has been a very busy holiday season at Harsh Realities.

We successfully concluded a Kickstarter for ElfWood (our second full-setting and third successful Kickstarter).

Editing for Promised Sands is finished with the first phase – we start second phase edits and preliminary layout this week.

We're cranking on a new mini-setting, as well: No Man's Land.  It's a post-apocalypse world invaded by a strange monstrous alien and spoors of alien plants where the male population was nearly destroyed, leaving society to rebuild with a 95% female population.  We originally worked on this project a few years ago with the intent of releasing it for another company, but chose to hold off and release it for Sixcess instead. It should be ready in near future.

We're also planning a Kickstarter for the Steampunk / Sci-pulp setting Extraordinary Voyages in April / May.  Keep your eyes peeled.  We'll certainly announce it, but if you like Steampunk and want to see our take on it, check out Kickstarter in April for some steamy awesomeness.

And, finally, we have additional offerings planned for 2014. Two more full settings (Mytharia - kickstart planned for August 2014 - and StarDust - kickstart planned for November/December 2014), several mini-settings (FunkPunk, Blackout), and various adventures and setting expansions for Promised Sands, ElfWood and Extraordinary Voyages.

We'll be running events at Gen Con in August and we're trying to work Origins into our schedules for June – you can check out our website for more info (//www.harshrealities.org).

To those who purchased our products, we offer a humble thank you.  To those who have downloaded the freebies, thanks for looking – and this is your chance for holiday discounts before they run out!

We wish you happiness and prosperity in the New Year!
