Thoughts and setting ideas for horror gaming in Savage Worlds and other role playing games
This is a short campaign that I am running trying out the new Adventure Edition rules set in the Deadlands world. You can find my player facing notes here which I will keep updated. This campaign is only expected to last about ten sessions. I am looking forward to the release of the updated Deadlands rules for the new system, but until then, I will muddle through with my own conversion. Though some of these conversions would not be used in a longer term campaign.

This first session was all about character building and while we had two physical copies of the Deadlands Reloaded Players Guide at the table and three tablets with the Savage Worlds Adventure Edition Rules this took most of the night. The issue was more not knowing the rules of Savage Worlds in general and less the specific changes for the new Editions. We did have to make several changes to most of the characters because of the rules knowledge, and even then I didn’t catch them all until I added the characters to the campaign site.
This last week the group I am in started a new Savage Worlds game. The Star Wars game we were playing finished up with us making our escape in a stolen Sith ship and heading home. So we decided to start a fantasy game with a home brew setting. We are still learning the details about the setting, but we got an overview and created characters during this session.

The droid brings out our contact, and I quickly set about using the force to bring him to so we can get out of here before more supports of the Sith show up. We give him the pass phrase even though it slows down our escape process, and he gives us a disc with of information, a part that we need to install on the ship, and he points our ride out.

It is now this strange holiday in the US called Thanksgiving. Apparently everyone goes home and celebrates by eating tons of food. Needless to say those of us who came over from Hogwarts a month ago don’t see the point in this, but it does give us some out of class time so I can finish up my work on Dominic’s potion. All of this is a good thing because now that I have figured out how to make a cure, and gathered the ingredients, I don’t want to let it out of my sight.

Notes: This game started in December of last year and planned to be a short duration game. It was put on hold do to unforeseen events, and we got back to it last night.
We picked up where we left off, after the fight.
