Re: [DL] RE: Savage Deadlands
even if you convert your character with 80 exp. making it?legendary it is
still really gay! and shouldn't be tried because?you will still lose a lot
of your character. The main problem I have with savage worlds is that if
you don't want to?die very quickly your character has to combat oriented
in?every way and you lose a lot of the flavor of your?character if you
convert. My friends character that was a mechanic before the last war only
has a D4 in?repair because even after?losing half his stuff he still
didn't have enough?levels to buy most of his skills to a decent level.
I'd like more info on this... Even a starting 0 XP character can b
basically proficient in a single weapon and a single 'other' skill with
lots of room to spare. Remember that a mechanic in Classic would likely
have a good Tinkerin' plus one ore more Profession skills and maybe a
science.
You wanted more info on this so here is my char before SW and after:
Before:
Attributes:
C:3d10 Kn:2d8 M:4d6 Sm:3d8 Sp:4d12+4
D:4d12+4 D"2d12 Str:2d12 Q:4d12 V:2d12

Academia:occult5d8 Demolition3d8 Medicine:general2d8
Trade:mechanic5d8 Blastin1d8
Overawe2d6 Persuasion3d6
Ridicule2d8 Scroungin3d8 Survival:forest3d8 streetwise3d8

fightin:brawlin,glowstick,spear5d12
sneak4d12+1 swimmin2d12
Quickdraw:glowstick3d12
After:Now this was not made by me, but my marshall, and it was started at
Legendary with 80 points.And I have leveled up 3 times since then.
Attributes:
Agilityd12 smartsd6 spiritd12+1 strengthd8 vigord12+1
Skills:
gutsd12+6 shootind10 fightind10 knowledge:occultd6 repaird6
faithd12+1 drivind4 stealthd4 noticed6 blastind4 trackind4
persuaded4 intimidated4+2 tauntd4 healingd4
Now. If you don't see my complaint with the convesion system....If this
character was to be made like he should have been, it would have taken more
points than was given. Now the reason I was told that this was all I got
was because if I was made like I should have been, then I would have been
badder than the Reckoners. I don't care. When over half of my character is
taken away from me, then I tend to not want to play that character any more.
It's just not fun. It's like when I got off the Unity, I got amnesia or
something like that. to not know over half mu skills and my attributes to
go down; I'm still upset enough about that, that I haven't even paid enough
attention to the combat system to say anything about that.
May the Force be with you all,
Taco
