Wild West shootout with trench crusade rules

[Schlaumeier]

This year I've played two Wild West games with a friend, using the trench crusade rules. Trench crusade for Wild West might sound like a stretch, but as TC has rules for pistols, rifles and (double barreled) shotguns - why not? The rules make for a fast and fun game and the vibes are about right for a wild west shootout. I just felt that the double barreled shotgun was a bit overpowered, as it can give off two devastating shots each round, whereas revolvers can only shoot once per round. Maybe we need to come up with rules for reloading. Or maybe I just need to get over tha fact that my mountain men got blasted to pieces with that shotgun.

Bigger setups where rangers are longer might help.  Shotguns really are nasty!

Nice terrain setup.
