Thanks dino'! I don't do facebook, so that's really helpful.

Cheers.

Dartfrog, you're always welcome!

I figured out a lot of LAFers aren't into Facebook, so I decided to post the document, since the author himself is certainly very busy with the new supplement due January 2018!!!

It seems I've got quite a lot to catch up on here- to those of you that have joined in on the Nickstarter; my humble thanks!

@Dinohunterpoa: I actually don't 'do' Facebook either, so thanks for posting up the 'How It Plays' document! As for the dinosaurs... This is Dracula's America, so Kommando_J's idea of necromantically-resurrected dinosaur skeletons prowling the badlands might be viable in the future- I'll need to check with the good folks at Osprey!

@Everybody: as usual, if you have any questions not already covered then drop them below and I'll try to keep up!

Fenrir, i'd love to help as it is my dream to get into publishing/writing articles some day.

I think the bone wars have all the elements both supernatural and not, have a few other ideas that i'd love to share(one of my masters courses this year was ''the American way of war'' - I concentrated on the civil war).

Nick, what about a detailed AAR here on LAF?

@Dinohunterpoa: Those Dino-riders...

And thanks for posting up those pictures of Nick's game as well- as you say: highly inspirational stuff!

After I've finished work today I'm gonna take that quiz, too!

@Kommando_J: Thanks very much- once I've got the supplements in the can I'll pick your brain some more if that's alright with you!

More than alright, I have many ideas, some big some small.

One that just pops back into my head was reading about an American missionary group in Africa that had to close down after one of their lead missionaries went a bit 'mad' and split off to teach his own unique interpretation, perhaps he returns to America with his new congregation in tow?

Other creatures now finding themselves in America as greedy foreigners remove relics and remains from crypts and tombs in order to populate Americas museums.

I'd imagine Richard Burton would get involved somehow, the man loved scandal and shocking people, I could well imagine him practicing sorcery or becoming the head of his own vampire brood(the man loathed rivals).

Looking forward to it.

Fenrir, you're always welcome! Please ~~pistol whip~~ politely ask Nick to post here on LAF some detailed AARs of his Dracula's America games with lots of pictures!

That native american dino riders picture is not mine (my own dino riders are all Kroot natives!

); it's from a Deadlands: The Great Rail Wars game posted a long time ago in a now defunct blog!

BTW: if anyone knows of a Deadlands: TGRW game with some masked dino-riders robbing a train with a triceratops with a howdah and a great harpoon gun, PLEASE LET ME KNOW! I think this ~~is a great idea to be shamelessly stolen~~ is very inspiring stuff!
