FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SCHWALB ENTERTAINMENT TO PUBLISH PUNKAPOCALYPTIC THE ROLEPLAYING GAME
PunkApocalyptic Roleplaying Brings Bad Roll Games Miniatures Game to Roleplaying Games
August 22, 2017—MURFREESBORO, TN: Schwalb Entertainment announced today that it has signed a licensing agreement with Bad Roll Games to adapt their exciting and irreverent PunkApocalyptic tabletop miniatures game into a new tabletop roleplaying game.
“My friends over at Summum Creator turned me on to PunkApocalyptic, and its irreverent and hilariously vulgar take on the post-apocalyptic genre convinced me that I wanted to bring their world to tabletop roleplayers everywhere,” said Schwalb Entertainment’s Man of Action, Robert J. Schwalb. “I’m thrilled my new friends at Bad Roll Games agreed to the partnership and excited to bring the insane chaos of a world gone mad to tabletop gamers everywhere!”
In PunkApocalpytic, the wealthy and powerful hide behind high walls of their massive cities, leaving everyone else to scrabble and fight to survive in a war-torn, irradiated, and inhospitable wasteland crawling with mutants, gangs, and the insane. In the RPG, the players assume the roles of veteran survivors, Mercs, who sell their services to whomever can afford them, undertaking missions for unhinged gang leaders, embattled survivors, caravans seeking safe territory, and more. PunkApocalyptic: The Roleplaying Game embraces the nastiness and brutality of the miniatures game, while opening even more of the world for exploration, ultraviolence, and adventure.
“When Summum Creator told us about the possibility of working with Robert for releasing an RPG version of our tabletop skirmish game, we couldn’t believe our luck,” says Bad Roll Games. “We knew about his huge success with the campaign for the Demon Lord book and we thought that would be perfect. We love his spirit, his enthusiasm and we are thrilled with the idea that he likes our setting so much as to take it in and give his own approach to it.”
In 2018, Schwalb Entertainment will launch a Kickstarter campaign to fund the production of PunkApocalyptic Roleplaying, a new, standalone tabletop roleplaying game powered by the Demon Lord Engine™. Stretch goals unlocked during the campaign will introduce additional adventures, player options, and setting sourcebooks to expand on the information presented in the main rulebook.
More information and previews for PunkApocalyptic Roleplaying and the Demon Lord Engine™ will appear on www.schwalbentertainment.com in the coming months.

City of Chains: Lands in Shadow
City of Chains: Lands in Shadow for Shadow of the Demon Lord RPG
On the coast of the Auroral Ocean, almost directly opposite from the Pirate Isles to the east, stands Dis, the City of Chains. One of the member states of the Confederacy of Nine Cities, it sits on the eastern shore of Rûl, perfectly situated at the intersection of several major land and sea trade routes. While nominally a trading city, it is more famous—or infamous, most would say—as the preeminent marketplace for the slave trade on the continent. Despite strict prohibitions on slavery elsewhere in the Empire, the peddling of flesh continues unabated in Dis, flourishing even, just as it has for nearly a thousand years.
The well-to-do citizens of Dis enjoy a great deal of freedom: the freedom to own other people as slaves, enjoying a decadent and heady lifestyle at their chattel’s expense. The poor and downtrodden of the city enjoy none of these luxuries, instead living in constant fear of its ruler, the cruel autarch, whose minions snatch up those crippled by debt or who break the law, no matter how small the infraction, clapping the hapless victim in shackles and chains from which they will never escape.
City of Chains reveals one of the most cruel and decadent cities in the Confederacy of Nine Cities. As with other installments in this series, the information contained herein is intended to inspire you to develop Dis beyond what is provided in these pages, to help you make this vile and sinister place your own.
