Welcome team

Mission Profile

The Accord is dispatching you to escort the Class IV convoy carrying the Forgecore out of Cragwatch, through a western spur of Stoneheart, and north towards the city of Briarhold.

Hazards and Challenges

The Forgecore is large and the convoy will be slow. It will be a prime target for bandits, scavengers, and who knows what else. We need skilled people to guard it and scout the canyon paths. We entrust you with it's safety and it's installation at CN-07: Greyreach Spindle.

Savage Worlds

I'll tell you which dice to roll with what modifiers, when I ask for skill checks and resolving events.

Rolling Dice

Assume your roll needs to meet or beat a Target Number of 4. For every 4 you roll over the Target Number, you get a Raise which will add effects.

Dice can explode! If your die rolls an Ace (highest roll), reroll the die and add the new roll to the previous one.

You are the heroes

You can spend Tack to do some helpful things. Spend it freely, as you earn it. Tack is best when it flows.

Most often, you will use Tack to reroll a roll you don't like.

Everything else will come with time!
