ABOUT THE ADVENTURE

Welcome to the Weird West, where rootin' tootin' elven cowpoke find themselves slinging lead and spells alongside preachers callin' down righteous judgement & gamblers controlling hexes by playing a hand of poker with a devil or 2.

Join a posse put together by the Marshals to find who's been raising the dead out in the Nevada territory. Ain't nothing good come from the living dead following the bidding of anyone. You bring your irons with ya, because being dead ain't the worst thing that gonna happen to ya in the deadlands.

ABOUT THE SYSTEM
This game uses Savage Worlds system. Savage Worlds advertises itself as Fast! Furious! Fun! The game uses all types of dice with the "exploding dice" mechanic; if you roll the maximum number on a given die, it "explodes" and you roll again and add the total.

There are many other bits and bobs to the game, but this is a system designed for quick play without sacrificing in-depth conflict resolution mechanics.
