Well, thanks for giving it a try. I think the game had promise, however I appreciate you deciding to pull the plug if it wasn't going to work for you. I much prefer that instead of a game dragging on with weeks between turns, or something. Thanks again, Max

I've made the change noted in my first comment directly in the review. Also, I've noted in the review that a character sheet is now available for download from the DHR web site.

Luke slowly nods his head. "I'm in. I'll need some expense money too. I guess we can figure out the rest when we get back," he says, with a bit of a frown. Pa always said get the money up front, but it is a little kid .... OOC: I'm on a family vacation next week. I'll have my laptop...

I asked what was up on their yahoo group. This response came back today: "Actually, the domain expired while the site maintainer had bronchitis. :( It's been reregistered, and should be back up and online for everyone by morning."

I'll ask the question on their yahoo group, and see if anyone "in the know" can shed some light on why the site is down. Max

I'll add a comment to my own review. In the Chapter 8: The Trail section, the following should be deleted: "on the effects of alcohol. Also, the various vehicles common at that time and the various maneuvers you can, and cannot, perform. Finally, there are stats for horses of various qualities...

Luke thinks a bit more. He then asks the inevitable question, "Well, sir. Sounds like it could be a tricky problem. What exactly are you offering us, to bring your grandson home? My Pa always told me to get the deal straight and clear, so there isn't any confusion later."

I couldn't agree more. This is a first class product. They did a great job of taking the original Sidewinder (which was nominated for best d20 game) and improving on it.

Saddle up! Recoiled has been released!

Luke is pretty active on these boards, however you might want to email him directly. You can find an email link on his web page. I'm sure you have the address, but here is a direct link just in case. http://www.roleplayingmaster.com/ Upper left hand corner. I'm sure he can help you. Max

Oh great, thinks Luke. Another big cattleman I can get mad at me...... Still, the old man's story sounds good. Of course, he's probably nuts. "Well Sir, what can you tell us about this big cattle man? Even if he doesn't have anything to do with your family's problems, it sounds like he's the...

Ok, that one did sneak by me. Sounds like you've been reading Harry Turtledove, or something. Max

If you haven't visited the DHR web site, I recommend it. They have free previews of the first 7 chapters available for viewing. http://www.doghouserules.net/ Max

Excellent news, Geoff. You must be close if you are throwing out actual release dates! ;-) Max

Luke takes a moment to consider what the old man has said, and realizes he has a couple questions. "Well Sir, that is a right sad tale. Before I agree to anything I'd like to clear some things up. I'm wondering about a few things and the only way I know to get answers is to ask questions...

You might want to ask on the GridSmith forums. You can find them here: http://pub107.ezboard.com/bgridsmithforums Max

Luke scratches his head and thinks as he walks. A judge who doesn't want the law to deal with a problem? What kind of judge is this guy? And what kind of problem does he have? Luke grimaces and regrets agreeing to come along. However, he had agreed and so figures he should keep his bargain.

Just an FYI -- I'm traveling for work the next couple of days. I won't be back online until Wednesday. Max
