Savage Worlds Adventure Edition
from Ludonarrative Dissidents · host Ross Payton
Savage Worlds Adventure Edition (SWADE) was designed and written by Shane Lacy Hensley with Clint Black, and published by Pinnacle Entertainment Group in 2023. It’s a generic rules system of cinematic action with a historied pedigree and an amazing range of sourcebooks, but how does it fare against more rules-y games like GURPS or narrativist darlings like FATE? We take it apart to see what keeps its motor running, mechanically and stylistically, then put it back together to discuss how that affects play. As noted at the end of the episode, Greg and James were given PDF copies of the game by PEG and we are properly grateful for that.
