    Wild West and some observations

    Well, carbines are, by design, meant to be fired by horseback. :) But, I'll have to take a look at S:R. (I have the original Sidewinder, but not the new one.)

    I was looking at making his carbine a masterwork item.

    Funny, that's the reason I'm asking. ;)

    Mongoose Devs -- I noticed one incidental mention of masterwork items, but could find no rules or effects of masterwork weapons or items. Did you folks intend to include additional rules (or costs) on masterwork items?

    Lando, I responded in the other thread. :)

    Wild West and some observations

    Unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to run anything with it; I'm still working on converting my Boot Hill characters in my Silversmith, AZ campaign over to d20.

    Modern Pocket Handbook is great, BUT...

    As a T-20 player, I can tell you that if you like the Traveller setting, then you'll like this game. I was quite pleased with it, as they were able to integrate their proprietary rules on starship and vehicle design, and also previous experience for characters, with the d20 mechanic. The end...

    [OGL Wild West] Campaign Setting: Silversmith, AZ

    Silversmith, Arizona The city of Silversmith lies on the Prescott to McDowell stage trail, on the shores of a branch of the Clear Fork of Rio San Francisco. This bustling silver mining town is 20 miles east of Montezuma Well, and about 110 miles east, by stage, from the former territory capital...

    Wild West and some observations

    Okay, I went through and looked at the various professions and came to the conclusion that 20 wealth rolls would be the best way to simulate the character's starting assets. Now, three professions have variable starting wealth: Dude, Cowboy, Lawman. For the Dude profession, I decided on a d20...

    Steampunk Settings

    I actually started a campaign about 5-6 years ago...it lasted only about 3 months, though. I've worked on some strategic/story continuation stuff (to about 1895) since, but I haven't had an opportunity to continue the campaign. For the record, the PCs were members of an adventuring society that...

    Steampunk Settings

    Advance! :P :D Sorry, I couldn't resist. Of course, I've just doomed my wife to another viewing of Zulu (something like viewing number 136 ;) ). Just call me Color Sergeant Bourne. 8)

    Steampunk Settings

    I've always been loyal to Frank Chadwick's Space: 1889 setting, and have periodically worked on converting the setting over to d20 (something more unique than d20 Modern and its variants). I just think Victorian science-fiction is a rich world that easily includes genres like the original...

    Wild West list??

    I'd be interested in joining a list, if one is started.

    Wild West and some observations

    Doh! That was me, just above. :P Oops. :) One other thought that just crossed my mind, that if you do include using either 6-months' or 1-year's worth of weatlh rolls, you may also want to state that the player can just take the average for his wealth level (for those that don't want to roll 36...

    Wild West and some observations

    Okay, my first comment is that I noticed the "Backing" talent in the genuine dude tree resets the character's wealth back to "Wealthy." Can I assume that means the character's wealth is set to "Well Off"? Also, I noticed that Miner vocation is missing the Wealth rating. I couldn't find...
