Gives you a classic cattle drive opening and introduces various mechanics: a potential duel, some quick encounters, a large battle (can be run as a mass battle) etc. "I anticipate we'll have 4-6 hours to play through this, and ideally I would prefer something a bit more "on rails" than a big open sandbox that requires a ton of reading and prep, and might leave my players lost." - I'd probably drop an encounter or two and focus on the big high points (can discuss these here or via PM if you want to sketch out a plan), but this is a bit more "on rails" as an introduction. You could do just chapters 2-3 from the new combined Blood Drive book - there's a climactic fight and a natural stopping point for the cattle drive. It's linear and doesn't need to be massive if you break it up. What would you recommend for a new Marshall looking to introduce his players to Deadlands?īlood Drive was initially broken up in to three books, so there are various natural stopping points. I read the Blood on the Range test drive, but it's just awful in design.
Similarly, Blood Drive appears way too massive. I have Horror at Tombstone Hill, but that's a giant sandbox and requires seasoned characters and (ideally) seasoned players. I anticipate we'll have 4-6 hours to play through this, and ideally I would prefer something a bit more "on rails" than a big open sandbox that requires a ton of reading and prep, and might leave my players lost. I'm ramping up on SWADE & DLWW, but my players are brand new to it. Ideally, I'm looking for a fun adventure to learn the rules. I have the SWADE core rulebook, Deadlands Weird West books, and Blood Drive too (in PDF, still waiting for my pre-order shipment). I'll be the GM and I'm looking for a good starter/intro adventure.
I was a backer of the Deadlands Weird West Kickstarter and my D&D group are set to play our first Deadlands one-shot next month. Hi folks, I'm a veteran DM and Game Master on several systems, but I'm brand new to Savage Worlds and Deadlands.
