I've been playing TTRPGs for over two decades and running them nearly as long. I've covered a wide variety of systems but I've never touched this system until now. My son got it for me for Christmas and wants to try it. Your video is extremely helpful, thanks! I had to subscribe to your channel.

That makes me so happy to read. Glad you found this helpful and useful! :)

I'm going to be running this for my friends in a couple of days and your video was instrumental in picking this game over one I'd have to write myself. Thank you for making the game so approachable and sound so easy!

[@theroguesgallery]

Glad I could help!

I have just started running this game for my friends. It’s great having resources like this to help. Thank you for the content!

[@theroguesgallery]

Thank you for that feedback. Comments like this are why I started making these.

[@TiredandGrouchy]

Awesome video! We need to figure out how increase your subs!

[@theroguesgallery]

Yeah... trying to find the right content. I've been focusing more on other platforms and shorts than longform. Thanks for the support and the feedback. :)

[@Dimitri9511]

in which page it's the list of skills?

[@theroguesgallery]

The new Deadlands specific skills are on page 14 of the Deadlands core book "Core Skills: Athletics, Common Knowledge, Notice, Persuasion, and Stealth are “innate” abilities most adult adventurers have. Your character starts with a d4 in each of these five core skills. Buying Skills: Next, you have 12 points to buy skills. Most standard skills in the Savage Worlds rulebook are available in Deadlands: The Weird West." Other skills will be found in the Savage Worlds rule book.

Nice video, but seems just a watered-down version of the classic. I disagree. Classic is best for Deadlands. With the hot locations and paperclips and all.

Everyone is going to have their favorite version. While I wish there was more alignment to the characters of the previous version, I really think Savage World succeeded in areas that WOTC failed; in terms of streamlining the TTRPG and making it more accessible to new players. Also, now your Deadlands characters are compatible with other Savage products, if that's your thing.
