About the adventure
If this is your intro to Savage Worlds this is a good gateway. I am more than happy to help players with the mechanics of this game so don't feel pressured to know them before you start. This is a casual rules light game that focuses more on the investigation than the mechanics. Deadlands is a world that combines the adventure of the old west with the survival of the horror supernatural.

About me
I am a New Orleans based game master who plays a variety of ttrpgs. I like to focus more on role play and problem solving aspects over hard game mechanics. I try to make all my games have the feel of casually hanging with your friends every week.

What The Wired Nerd (Adam) brings to the table
You will get compendium access on Roll20 for both Savage Worlds and Deadlands. I don't provide music because I feel it does slow stuff down. I will do voices for characters but not throughout. (you don't want an hour of my prospector voice trust me). I encourage you to find creative solutions to problem and the Rule of Cool usually applies.
Homebrew rules
We will use both the adventure deck and the action deck.
