[HOE] Savage Unity (Now on the right list!)

[Brett Dixon <balance@tubas.net>]

Please note I pasted this to the general Deadlands without much 
success. Here it is agaoon on the proper list, and my apoligies for 
duping messages for those (like myself) who are on both!

I picked up Savage Worlds this weekend (BTW, I love Marguerite's 
cameo!) and had the thought of using the SW ruleset as a replacement 
for the quick system from Unity. basically, replace the handful of die 
rolls with the posse versus a few dozen mooks and a couple similarly 
powerful wild cards.

Some tweaks I'm thinking to do:
	Powers work as in HoE. We'll be playing on a battlemat, so doing 
non-standard areas of effect from SW stock is no big deal. Similarly, 
the posse Huckster draws and casts as normal. This way we we don't have 
deal with weirdness from 'normal' fights using classic Deadlands being 
too different. Only damage is modified to the SW equivalents.
	The Posse will get some appropriate allies.
	Ammo and other consumables will be tracked as in HoE-land. They are 
mostly similar, but it's a point of
	The posse can spend white chips as 'bennies'	and possibly allow the 
larger chips to be exchanged (1 red = 2 White, 1 Blue = 3 White, 1 
Legend = 5 White) for these fights only.
	I'll have to define each fight a bit better, as well as what allies 
the posse gets.

Thoughts? Opinions? Death threats?
