I know Pinnacle Entertainment have released a source book, The Savage Worlds of Solomon Kane and I was wondering if any of the forumites have had a crack at doing a Legend version?
Here are some thoughts on how you could accomplish this with Legend.
Use Pirates of Legend as a base (making appropriate corrections to the weapons tables that are a holdover from MRQ1) and create a new profession; Witch, with a very specific range of common magic spells; i.e. those that deal with charms and minor healing magic and a few curses or whatever (similar to the Renaissance SRD from Cakebread & Walton).
Spirit magic would be available to PC's who are shamans from Barbarian, Nomad & Primitive cultures.
Sorcery would be the mainstay of villainous types (Warlocks) who make use of Arcania of Legend: Blood Magic and generally not available to PC's.
Some minor Divine magic could be made available to Priests/Pilgrims based on their Pact & Lore (Theology) skills. Cults would need to be developed for the mainstream religions, i.e. Islam, Christianity (and it's variant churches), Judaism and perhaps Buddhism, each with a specific set of 'miracles'.
I think something like that would work quite well and shows how truly flexible the system is.
Thoughts?
