[QUOTE="KnowTheToe, post: 2043822, member: 1961"] It all depends on what you want. For me, Westerns are living and dieing by the gun, and everything else is fluff. That is why I still think Boot Hill is a great game. Unless you are coming up with a campaign requiring lots of skills, character actions can be resolved by RPing, like in the good old days. We made custome charts for brawling, drinking and jumping because those became major parts of the game. Jumping from roofs onto horses, from horse to horse, wagon to wagon etc. What I liked about it, wa any 2 bit gun slinger had a chance to kill you with a single shot. Generating PCs takes all of 10 minutes for a new player. Clean and simple. We ran campaigns as lawmen, outlaws, Banditos and just as frontiersman. You could easily take a group and give them the Ponderosa and run site based adventures. This game gives the GM total control. Totally creates the feel of the spaghetti western. [/QUOTE]
