It was a hoot. It's a great system and it plays quick and fun.

I also just ran my 50th Savage World session and I am extremely pleased with how Savage Worlds works in conjunction with Fantasy Grounds II. It is an elegant system that removes barriers for both players and GM's. Got a great idea to try out, it handles it easily.<br><br>For me Savage Worlds is what D&D should have been all along: Fast, Fun & Furious.<br><br>P.S. If anyone reading this would like to sit in and watch a Fantasy Grounds II based Savage World session contact me at Andugus@whitehairedman.com. I'd be happy to set you up to see it in action.Andugushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06430827417733774611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-75635217077776260122011-01-11T22:07:04.161-05:002011-01-11T22:07:04.161-05:00I have only played Savage Worlds twice, both at a ...I have only played Savage Worlds twice, both at a con in Denver I went to a year ago. I played one game of Solomon Kane and one rather humorous version of Chickens in the Mist. I really enjoyed the system and the read for some of the sourcebooks (Tour of Darkness looks like it might actually be a blast to run), but my higher calling always seems to be D&D.Higgipediahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15898074416237354260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-10416111487617598412011-01-11T21:35:08.491-05:002011-01-11T21:35:08.491-05:00damn typos ;)FATE will be a whole nother post ;)damn typos ;)<br><br>FATE will be a whole nother post ;)Tenkarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05159289652051155824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-70991872477870536492011-01-11T21:34:13.200-05:002011-01-11T21:34:13.200-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.This comment has been removed by the author.Tenkarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05159289652051155824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-65761968606416080232011-01-11T21:32:30.208-05:002011-01-11T21:32:30.208-05:00I share the same plight.

It's a complete game, featuring a SW version, slightly altered for the Solomon Kane universe. I'm gonna break it out one day. :)Jameshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08192212467523179768noreply@blogger.com
