Oh boy does it make battles feel more epic.

Savage worlds does a lot to help with that, honestly. The cards at the start of each session help shake every game up too.

I’m really singing its praises here, but I really love the classless edge system of Savage Worlds. I’ve never come up against the problem I have with other RPGs where I have to force the mechanics to fit my concept. Want a plate armoured wizard? 2 edges, playable as a beginner character.

I also love the trappings mechanic.

You want your spells to look like a dude's just throwing cards extremely hard? That's just how you work baby.

I also love playing a Huckster in Deadlands. The poker hand mechanic to essentially perform wild magic is ridiculously evocative.

Until you run out of bennies. I always ran out of bennies.
