Hi,

I am new to this forum and glad to share with you my settings and ideas about Savage Worlds, which is MY rpg system to play with.

By the way, if I make some mistakes in English, it is because I am French, so I beg your pardon.

I discovered Savage Worlds four years ago and always have played with it since then. It is an amazing toolbox, and thanks to it I made, and am still making, settings and house rules.

There are more settings in French, but everything new is now translated, and here the interestings content in English:

- Dead Space: https://gregoryhuyghe.com/2016/09/17/dead-space-sw-rpg/

- A house rule to put a black hole into your science-fiction game: https://gregoryhuyghe.com/2017/03/21/interstellar-en/

- Milo and Radovan from the trilogy Pusher as NPC: https://gregoryhuyghe.com/2017/03/28/pusher-iiiiii-en/

- Handle cannibalism in your game with a rule inspired by the movie The Neon Demon: https://gregoryhuyghe.com/2017/03/14/neon-demon-en/

I hope you will like it, and don't hesitate to tell me what did work or didn't work for you.
I will update this post with the new rules to come.

If you want some rules to use differently the wild die, or handle the initiative with a D20, you can read my article about the dice

I've actually played around with using a single Agility or Smarts roll (depending on the situation) for initiative when dealing with larger groups to speed up play, but the d20 would work pretty well, too. The scaling Wild Die is interesting but I'd only really think about using that for really high-powered settings as it does get pretty crazy with high stats and skills.

Oh, and you aren't the only one who prefers the ending of the movie version of The Mist. Even Stephen King said he likes it more and would have used it if he'd thought of it first.

Thank for the reply.

I thing something to try would be to make an initiative roll based upon what skill or attribute you want to use. We can assume that if you are good at shooting, driving, or programming, then you also quick.
The problem is that if you play at the third place, you will surely change your action. It would be hard for the players to know exactly in advance what they want to do.

I'll be following your blog! Nourris moi!!!!

I am waiting for your reply to know what kind of worlds you have imagined.

Awesome. I've been running a SF game with Savage Worlds the past few months. Neat system.

Thank you Darthfozzywig

Jake: So, where's the office? Back at division?

This week an article about Training Day and the statblocks for Alonzo and Jake: https://gregoryhuyghe.com/2017/05/16/training-day-en/

Also some rules to handle racism which I do not promote of course, but it seemed to me important to put a penalty in Charisma for relations between criminals and between cops and criminals. It allows to create gangs, family wars...
