    Sidewinder - Back In The Saddle

    Howdy, gents. Name's Luke," says the powerful looking young man that the kid first approached. "I'm not sure if I'm the right guy for this job, since I'm not really all that mean," he says with a smile. He holds out his oversized hand to shake. Luckily, he seems to know his own strength and...

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    Just in case the players haven't subscibed to the new in-game thread yet, we're off and running. Luke has made the first PC post (since the opening was directed at him).

    Sidewinder - Back In The Saddle

    Sitting at breakfast, Luke is feeling pretty good. He has put Kansas far behind him and that means the Mowat's shouldn't be bothering him anymore. Last night there was a nice, friendly brawl with drinks all around afterwards that got all the agression out of his system for a while. And, he...

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    I don't have Deadlands. Can you make the list available for everyone, so we can see what the options will be? That is one thing the new Sidewinder: Recoilded is going to correct about original Sidewinder -- there will be a selection of weapons to choose from. That always annoyned me, so I...

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    Just thought I'd mention that Dog House Rules has said they would be happy to host Sidewinder games on their web site. http://www.doghouserules.net/forum/index.php If you want to stay here, that's fine with me. Just thought I'd point out another, less crowded, option. Of course, they are...

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    No problem. Actually, I wouldn't have been able to do much had you gotten going earlier. Just got a major proposal turned in today, so life is much more relaxed. For now. ;) Thanks for the update. PBP and PBEM games always suffer when real life rears its ugly head. Max

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    You are correct. Salt is a prerequisite for True Grit. That came out as errata on the yahoo group. The only other official errata I heard about is Ride should be a class skill for Ruslters. Its so obvious, most people didn't even notice it was missing (including me, until it was pointed...

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    That's the idea. :D Anyone drawing an AOO next to Luke, thinking he is unarmed, is going to get a big surprise. That double strength damage is nasty -- and gets even more nasty at 4th level when his strength will go to 18. Max

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    Not at all! Have no fear. I was just thinking that we have several high dexterity guys, covering several classes. So, I starting looking at what wasn't covered (for instance, glad Doc took a scout so we have a tracker in the group) and ended up with a high strength mountain man. He will...

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    Luke Smith Luke Smith was born in 1853, in Chicago, Ill. The only child of a blacksmith, he learned the trade at a young age. His mother died in 1860 and after that his father decided to follow the western migration, but only as far as Lincoln, Nebraska. There, Luke grew to be a powerful...

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    I just noticed this question, re-reading the posts. Sidewinder: Recoiled is scheduled to be released by the end of the month in pdf format. No official date has been released yet. Their schedule has slipped quite a bit from what they were hoping (I think they are learning a lot about how long...

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    Looks good. I'm going to go with a wrangler I think. He'll obviously be a heck of a horseman, and also something of a gunman as well. I have him about half done. I'm off to Portland today, so I'll get him posted up tomorrow most likely. Max

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    You've pretty much covered character creation. I do have a couple questions, though. What about modified weapons? Can we have custom grips, etc on weapons to start out with? Hit points -- maximum for background and first level, and then roll on the honor system? Or should we use averages...

    Sidewinder - Back in the Saddle - OOC

    I'm interested in playing. I love Sidewinder -- in fact I have my own PBEM game I run. BTW, just as a note, Sidewinder Recoiled will use d20 Modern, not 3.5e. Now, I did create a 3.5 conversion document for Sidewinder that I posted to the yahoo group so that might be what you are talking...
