I have been working the past couple of days updating the Wiki for Savage Worlds since it was, shall we say, a bit lacking :)

I have started with the character sheet (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/Savage_Worlds_Character_Sheet) but hope eventually to fill in all of the blanks in due course.

Since I've only had this ruleset for about a week it is very likely that I will have made mistakes, missed stuff out, got completely baffled and generally made a complete mess. For those reasons I would appreciate any feedback from those chaps and chapesses with more experience in this (rather good and well implemented) ruleset.

Edit: Finished the character sheet and completed Items (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/Savage_Worlds_Item_Sheet) and NPC (https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/Savage_Worlds_NPC_Sheet) sheet.

I'm leaving the more difficult ones until I've done a bit more playing around :)

Going over this I must say you've done a good job.
You could add the damage field can be edited by middle mouse clicking in it.
Also, while it's true that having an edge on your sheet won't modify any Stats but FG will recognize it during automation. For example, Quick and Level Headed for initiative and Nerves of Steel to reduce wound penalties when performing a trait roll.

Cheers Mask, I just made an assumption regarding the edges and hindrances. Clearly I need to do more research.

Thanks for doing this. I'll flag to look at too once I have a chance though Mask knows more in his pinky finger than many of us do... etc.

There's an important PDF tutorial by heyhogan at this link (although it may need updating): https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?22588-Savage-Worlds-Supplement-for-4-0

Ikael also did a SW "Targeting 101" PDF that's quite helpful. Can't find the link right now.

Thanks Hector. Yes, I did find quite a bit of video and also the pdf (it gets downloaded and put into your docs folder when you buy the product - I think). It was the fact that all of the documentation and vids seemed to be a little out of date that partly prompted me to do the Wiki. Also it has helped me get my head around the rules a bit more.
