The Ultraviolet Grasslands - Free Introduction

ADD TO WISHLIST >

The Ultraviolet Grasslands (UVG) is a rules-light rpg pointcrawl module inspired by psychedelic heavy metal, the Dying Earth genre, and Oregon Trail games. It takes a group of ‘heroes’ into the depths of a vast and mythic steppe filled with the detritus of time and space and fuzzy riffs.

The UVG is for referees, game masters, judges, players, and fans of role-playing games who want to run a months’ long science fantasy Marco Polo-style voyage across a weird, old world.

The UVG is for any gamer who wants to mine it for inspiration, adventuring locations, odd characters, maps, items, and random encounters.

The UVG is also an artbook knitting together my art and maps and writing. Yes, every nut and fault, from layout to lamarckian monstrosity, is my own work.

It is also still a work in progress. The responsibility for every typo, every error, and every missing stat block, is entirely mine.

Now, enter the silver machine.

Any chance in He** the HB version of this book and its extra material (such as the GM screen) will be published again? I would buy them in a jiffy!

What's the difference between the player's guide and the preview?
Ie. Why should I read one over the other. (They seem very similar, but with some slight changes regarding wording and format)

They're not different. One is version 2.0 of the other.

V2.0 has:
- updated layout
- edited text
- some new art

With the release of the complete UVG, I chose to rename it to "player guide" to make its function a little clearer.

Is the full version available anywhere? Last update on this was around 6 months ago, hoping theres a way to purchase the whole thing? Is it available in hardback or paperback?

do you have a link? As the DT search doesn't find it. It is also not listed under hydra cooperative and on the Exalted Funeral site even the PDF version seems to be sold out /cry

I would like to buy a book version of this fascinating material. DO you know when I will be able to do that? I am not a member of the group that initially funded the creation of this material.

Hi Mark!

The first edition is arriving at our distributors from the printers as we speak and should be out to the KS backers sometime in February. We probably won't have a large print surplus, but we are planning a second print run soon enough, probably in paperback to keep the costs down.

You can get the full version in .pdf either right here on Drivethru (https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/290815/The-Ultraviolet-Grasslands) or via Exalted Funeral Press (https://www.exaltedfuneral.com/collections/luka-rejec/products/the-ultraviolet-grasslands).

Hi Aidan!

With a bit of a delay, at the same time as the kickstarter pdf is released to backers. Due to a family tragedy, I postponed work for most of August.

I'll be sure to announce it loud and clear!

Yes. The manuscript was completed in August, and though the kickstarter still has a ways to run (https://kickstarter.com/projects/exaltedfuneral/the-ultraviolet-grasslands/), it has funded and layout begins on Monday ... err ... tomorrow. :)

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
