[QUOTE="nnms, post: 5639837, member: 83293"] So I had a session of Savage Worlds with my 4E group set in the same campaign world. They had been on the edge of war with a city state ruled by dragonborn and kobolds. So for this one-off they played members of the resistance who had to assassinate a diplomat or the military might of the city states would be combined against the human kingdom. We had 10 combats in 4 hours. I heard Savage Worlds was fast, but wow I didn't know it could be that fast. The party could split and I was able to keep the action going for everyone regardless of where they were. The group had fun. I'd say even more than 4E. By the end, half of them were standing up at the table watching die rolls and cheering as a human street tough sacrificed his life to kill the dragonborn prince. They started fires in one of the quarters of the city on fire and started a riot. They infiltrated the keep and slew the dragonborn who were negotiating a military alliance that would have been disastrous for both the resistance and the kingdom their 4E PCs run. One player agreed to take over DMing the 4E game every second week (I'll be playing in it) and the other weekends will be Savage World games. [/QUOTE]
