    This is hands down the best intro to Savage Worlds that I have seen! Using FoundryVTT as a visual aid made a huge difference. Thank you so much for putting the time and effort into these videos. You are an absolute gem!

    Fantastic video and I've been enjoying the combat in Savage Worlds. It's been great to compare and see what I'm doing right and what I could be utilizing better. Many thanks. I'll check out those maps as well.

    This was an eloquently written script. GM Lee, you did an excellent job with demonstrating how Jack and his character animated beyond the page, creating a massively engaging character and script to do so. I can't wait to see Jack continue on his quests for honor!

    Please make more of these videos! This was incredibly helpful, specifically how you broke down a scene and focused no how the game mechanics and rules work with in-game examples. It was also helpful that you used one scene and characters. I am just getting into RPG's again after years away, and have decided on Savage Worlds system, because we want to play in multiple settings. These videos really make the game easier to understand.

  • @jefffisher1297
    @jefffisher1297 Před 6 měsíci

    This is supposed to be fast, math bloat from start you're making a whole bunch of rolls on every turn, and drawing cards, this just seems like a round would take 10 minutes.

    • @GameMasterLee
      @GameMasterLee Před 6 měsíci

      Well I’m having to explain it so that slows it down. Hey, try it and see for yourself. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, nor is any one game system, so it may or may not be for you.

    • @Stumpyboy
      @Stumpyboy Před 4 měsíci

      As someone running two games in this system it is anything but slow. In fact I find it to be the opposite. I find my players going through my encounters like butter and its awesome. You really gotta give it a shot!

    GM Lee: "Next is Race, and that's a pretty easy decision since this is a traditional 1930's pulp campaign." Me: "Oh, well, yeah that IS an easy choice then. Obviously you want to be wh-" GM Lee: "Jack is a Human." Me: "-uman! Human! I was going to say 'Human'!"

  • @bayardstringer6042
    @bayardstringer6042 Před 7 měsíci

    It was hard to figure out how the 13 damage was calculated at 11:12 because the d6 starts as a 2 but gets knocked over to a 4 when the d4s got rolled. Right at the 11:12 timestamp you'd think the roll should be 15, so you have run the video back to see that it was originally a 2.

  • @nickmayhew9722
    @nickmayhew9722 Před 7 měsíci

    What a great video! I was wondering if you could make a video like this, but focus on utilizing the Foundry VTT program with combat? It seems like you have to target the critter to hit, then un-target it and re-target it again to roll and assign damage. Maybe it's because I am trying to run combat as a GM and not as a player. Thanks

    • @GameMasterLee

      Well that’s what’s terrific in having so many systems to choose from - the systems can be as complex as you like. It’s better to grow the RPG community than diminish it.

    What module produces chat cards with those toggles? Specifically, the chat card when Blake makes his Notice roll...I cannot locate the correct one.

  • @awabooks9886
    @awabooks9886 Před 9 měsíci

    Around 7:45 you show an example of an exploding d6 roll, where the result was 6, 6, 2... And you declared the total to be 12. Wouldn't you add the 3rd roll of 2, making the total 14?

    • @GameMasterLee
      @GameMasterLee Před 9 měsíci

      You are correct! I used the result of the d8 and I should have used the d6… thanks for pointing that out!

    Thanks a lot this really helps :) Say, what module do you use for the combat cards? It looks like better rolls, but better rolls 2 does not give me the snazzy weapon cards you get there? Edit: Nevermind, i was holding it wrong ;)

You've done a really great job explaining and demonstrating everything! I've passed on your videos to my players as well. Great quality content for Savage Worlds. Look forward to more content from your channel.
