So we finally had the first night of adventure in the new Necessary Evil (Savage Worlds) campaign my group just started. After having my players jump through hoops with character generation (
see my previous post) I threw a couple of last minute changes which took about an hour to iron out (I changed my mind and decided to allow them to buy heavy armor, I introduced the Super Karma rule and I updated the cost of the
armor power to the Super Powers Companion book). Also, I am using the pre-explorers rulebook and some weapon damages changed from that, so I updated gear stats to the Super Powers Companion book; using multiple books and edition/edited printings can get confusing.
Once we got going things went well (warning-spoilers from the Necessary Evil campaign will follow). I started with the opening scene (Plot Point 1) wherein the characters find themselves captured, in nullifiers, and on their way to be shipped off planet. After setting that scene, I had them describe what their characters had been doing for the past two years since the aliens took Earth over and then how they were captured within the previous week. I allowed some role-playing as they all introduced themselves to each other.
