Things you will need to get started with Savage Worlds
Besides a rulebook you will need the following:
Dice:
Savage Worlds uses traditional gaming dice: 4-sided, 6-sided, 8-sided, 10-sided, 12-sided,and some settings use a 20-sided die as well. As a player, you’ll also want a “Wild Die,” a d6 of a different color which we’ll explain later.
Dice are abbreviated as d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, and d20. If you see something like 2d6+1, that means to roll two six-sided dice, add the two together, then add 1 to the total.
Action Deck:
Savage Worlds uses a standard deck of playing cards with the Jokers left in. Cards are used for initiative in combat and to help keep things moving fast and furious.
Miniatures:
These are not required but the rules are written in a way that allows miniatures to be used. This can help better visualize an encounter. All attacks are listed in inches so this can easily be translated to a table top.
