 Converting
vehicles
Jerry-rigged starships, hidden submarines,
sentient cars, lumbering tanks, screaming
dive-bombers, unstoppable trains,
massive battlestations — vehicles are an
integral part of the stories we love to
experience and tell.
Fun, fast, and furious
Translating vehicles from your
imagination, favorite movie, or other
game into Savage Worlds can be a lot of
fun once you figure out the basics like
what Toughness or Top Speed a vehicle
should have.
Or maybe its the other way around.
You know what weapons you want it to
have and how tough it needs to be but
you don’t know how big such a thing is.
Can the mega-sharktopus slaying boat
actually fit through the lock at the local
lake? How many crew should it have?
Conversion versus building
Before we go any further, keep in mind
that this is largely a conversion guide
for vehicles, and not a set of rules for
building something from the ground up
in a balanced manner. The information
we’ve prepared is based on helping you
figure out the core attributes of vehicles to
populate your universe, plucked straight
out of history or your favorite stories.
If you are looking for a system to build
vehicles using points values, you should
check out the Science Fiction Companion.
It contains rules for players and Game
Masters to make everything from giant
robots to space ships.
Getting Started
So lets start our engines! The first thing
you want to do is take a step back and
think about the vehicle you are keen on
converting. What is its primary function?
What draws you to it? What defines it?
Do you need a full vehicle’s statistics, or
do you just need to know how a party
might interact with it?
Example: If you want a starfighter with
the ordnance to take out capital ships after
dogfighting its way through enemy fighter
screens, your starfighter is largely defined
by how it compares to enemy fighters.
You’ll need to gather the stats of the enemy
fighters as well and keep them in mind while
you do your conversion. Since we aren’t
using points, just focus on defining those
core concepts first—you can edit it as your
collection of vehicles becomes fleshed out.

the many millennia in which wooden
vessels were in common service. Because
of this, historical details are invaluable
to informing accurate representations
of such vessels, whether in fantasy or
realistic settings.
Something to keep in mind is that
the size and draft of wooden vessels
will greatly influence what waters they
are capable of traversing. For instance,
Viking longships were sturdy enough
for sea travel but with a shallow draft
and narrow profile which enabled them
to travel up rivers other seagoing vessels
couldn’t enter, making them ideal for
raiding.

table covers both Modern and Future
Era watercraft powered by motorized
propulsion of some kind. In the real world,
some of these craft can be significantly

vessels.
The Powered Military Watercraft
table includes values for both Modern
Era and Future Era military vessels. Ship
classifications vary greatly, but the listed
categories are typical of World War 2
designations (when such categories
tended to be the most consistent). Some
notably wide vessels like battleships
will buck the trend for average length
associated with displacement, so don’t
sweat it if you see some variation there.
Also included are entries for belt armor,
commonly used on surface combatant
warships. Although they don’t have a
separate entry, Information Age warships
generally forgo armor in favor of greater
speed, maneuverability, and firepower.
This is due to the fact that current
weaponry easily overpowers even the
heaviest armor schemes, making armored
naval strategies largely ineffective. This is
part of the reason why battleships and
cruisers have been replaced by aircraft
carriers and guided missile destroyers
in modern-day navies.
Converting Vehicles
Aircraft
This category is divided into two tables:
one for civilian aircraft and one for
military.
Civilian Aircraft cover everything
from sport aircraft to modern transport
and passenger types, as well as most
aircraft built from wood. We have
included a couple of examples of unique
aircraft variants, so take some time to
look them up if you are unfamiliar with
them — maybe they will make for a fun
adventure or spark an idea for your next
campaign setting.
Similarly to Civilian Ground Vehicles,
these entries should be used for aircraft
hastily converted for service in war,
including World War I airplanes and
aerostat airships (Zeppelins).
Military Aircraft covers aircraft devoted
to military service. Future Era aircraft
are assumed to be more analogous to
modern aircraft in propulsion and design.
For more fantastic propulsion types, use
spacecraft or even Modern Era watercraft
entries for Toughness, Speed, Crew, etc.
Spacecraft
This is the only category with only one
table, and also the only one to cover
vehicles all the way up to Size 40!
This table is highly speculative at
best. Spacecraft mass, length, and crew
guesstimates will vary greatly by Size.
Around Size 25, lengths listed transition
toward more wide, squat, or spherical
vessel shapes when compared to modern
spacecraft built to be launched by rockets
from the surface of the Earth (making
them long, lightweight, and often
disposable) while retaining the ability
to enter and exit atmospheres. Size 25+
ships generally can’t do this, and instead
rely on smaller vessels like dropships
or large landing craft to ferry personnel
and materiel to and from the surface of
planets and other celestial bodies.

Watercraft
ANCIENT ERA WATERCRAFT
The following are baselines for typical wooden watercraft powered by muscle or sail. Crew is approximate.
Top Speed: Example watercraft marked asterisk (*) are primarily powered by rowers, while those marked
dagger (†) also have sails for use in favorable winds. Entries marked double dagger (‡) have sails but are built
to maximize rowing speed and are designed with a massive ram to sink enemy vessels — rowing speeds
listed are maximum possible at “ramming speed” (common sustainable rowing speeds are about 7 MPH).
Length, Mass, and Classification: Ancient sailing vessels were generally named by their type of masts or
rigging and could vary greatly in length and displacement. We have done our best to list the typical maximum
displacement for a “classic” ship of each type. Further complicating things, war vessels were generally built
for speed and maneuverability with a long length and shallow draft. Cargo vessels were often wider with
a deeper draft. This leads to large variances in displacement (mass) versus simple lenth. Focus on a craft’s
overall targeting profile (Scale) — how big a target it is—to inform its Size and base durability (Toughness).

CIVILIAN AIRCRAFT
This table covers primarily civilian aircraft built of lightweight materials like wood, aluminum, etc. Many
Industrial Age military aircraft were lightweight, wooden aircraft and should use these entries. Similarly,
Information Age aircraft often have military variants serving in non-combat roles.
Aerostats: Marked asterisk (*), these are generally the only Gargantuan aircraft available during the Industrial
Age, and their base speed reflects that—though experiments like the Spruce Goose did happen.
Cargo: Civilian aircraft Size (Large) and up carry cargo or passengers—cargo craft ignore the passenger listing.
Jet Aeroplanes: When converting jets increase the maximum speed greatly— many modern jet aircraft have
a cruising speed of 450 MPH or more; approaching Mach 1 (roughly 660 MPH, depending on atmosphere).

 Spacecraft
SAVAGE WORLDS

SPACECRAFT
The baselines for typical spacecraft assume no further paradigm-altering revolutions in the material sciences.
Around Size 25, spacecraft are assumed to transition toward more wide, squat, or spherical vessel shapes
instead of long, mass-conservative frames. Depending on the Setting and available types of propulsion, Size
25+ spacecraft are often incapable of entering atmospheres and instead will carry dropships for such tasks.
Modern Era Spacecraft represent what near-current technologies or a hard science fiction setting could
produce if economically viable for space resource exploitation, solar system colonization, and a resulting
uptick in the militarization of space. Alternatively, this level of spacecraft represents what would be possible
for Earth to press into service in the event of an extra-terrestrial emergency or threat of planetary invasion.
Future Era Spacecraft are those seen in science fiction and space opera universes where interstellar travel
and advanced technologies are common. For civilian spacecraft, use the Modern Era Toughness profile.
Crew: Gargantuan craft list only minimum crew; their crews vary greatly by role, weapons systems, etc.
