The Legend of Dead Man's Hand available for pre-order

"Blood will be spilled. Lives will be lost. Fortunes will be made. Men will be ruined."

Released April 12th, The Legend of Dead Man's Hand is available now for pre-order priced £15 GBP – http://www.greatescapegames.co.uk/deadmanshand/dmhrulesandoffers/dead-mans-hand-legend.html


The Legend of Dead Man's Hand is the campaign sourcebook for Dead Man's Hand, in which players take a gang of no-good crooks or a posse of untried, but honest, good men, and endeavor to make their mark on the Old West. Rivals develop business schemes or criminal enterprises, gain skills and experience, expand the size of their respective bands, and engage in plenty of Wild West gunplay in their rise to glory or descent into an early grave (or the bottom of a bottle).

The Legend of Dead Man's Hand contains rules for running multi-player campaigns, eleven new scenes (including multi-gang shootouts), and four new gang types: Banditos, Renegade Indians, 7th Cavalry, and Pinkertons.

In the coming weeks we'll give you the lowdown on different aspects of The Legend of Dead Man's Hand, and give you details on a host of new 28mm miniatures, buildings and accessories and more. http://www.greatescapegames.co.uk/dead-mans-hand/images/legend

While I haven't played DMH, it's been really well received here.  I can't wait to see the new buildings, and I'm very interested in the figure packs for the cavalry, indians and banditos.  Can't wait!

Love DMH so I'll be ordering this payday. Can't wait to see the Banditos and the Pinkertons. I'm sure both gangs will be added to my collection, Banditos will be for sure. I'll have so many Mexican bandits I'll have to start gaming the mexican revolution  lol

Wargames Illustrated Facebook page just shared a photo of the new Renegade Indians. They look superb and are now on my shopping list!

I like the premise of this. I'm imagining it might be useable as a campaign for other Old West rules too? I prefer to do my own but it sounds good and could be a big timesaver.

Now I DO like those.    They will mostly mix in with my apaches....with the Comanche looking "scout" destined to join my cavalry.
