Christopher R Taylor Posted July 17, 2021 Report Posted July 17, 2021 Very nice! I have seen several gaming websites give very positive reviews, and that makes me happy, maybe more will hear about it. Interestingly enough, going around the internet, Hero has a really good reputation still and is admired as a game company Amorkca, Khas, Ninja-Bear and 1 other 4 Quote

HeroGM Posted August 22, 2021 Report Posted August 22, 2021 Skullface - The Phantom Pain from Metal Gear Solid. Would make an interesting character (at least the look) for a Weird Western or even Pulp game. DentArthurDent, Spence, Steve and 1 other 3 1 Quote

No idea what the reference is, but the look is definitely great for a Pulp or Pulp Western. Quote
steriaca Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 Technically would a Superhero Western campaign (Champions of the Old West) be considered a wierd west campaign? Just asking. ...which gives me an idea of a supplement for Champions/Western Hero... Quote
Christopher R Taylor Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 I would consider it so, but the categories I came up with are pretty arbitrary, they were just a shortcut way of helping GMs come up with the ground rules and concepts of their campaign. Quote
steriaca Posted January 29, 2022 Report Posted January 29, 2022 Generally comic book westerns are low powered, and just basically normal westerns. Superhero westerns (Kid Colt, Two Gun Kid) are basically extensions of that, except that stuff like Indian Shamatic Magic and wierd one of the kind machines exist. Othoe one can look at Steel Ball Run as both wierd western (it IS a part of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure after all) and borderline superheroes. I don't have WH yet...so I can't truly say if Steel Ball Run is listed in recomend reading or not... Quote
HeroGM Posted January 30, 2022 Report Posted January 30, 2022 John Byrne did two (well read one) issue of Alpha Flight that took place in 1880s Alberta (have to relook) that would make a good weird west campaign - and the idea of his Great Beasts as well as Shaman and Talisman would ALMOST fit.

steriaca Posted February 8, 2022 Report Posted February 8, 2022 I say take a look at the various DC Comics western heros. Bat Lash. Cinnamon. Especially Jonna Hex. Marvel has Two Gun Kid, Ghost/Night/Phantom Rider, and that is all I can remember. Ghost Rider actually begun as a pulp western character. Quote
Christopher R Taylor Posted February 12, 2022 Report Posted February 12, 2022 Ghost Rider looked really cool too DentArthurDent 1 Quote

starblaze Posted October 8, 2023 Report Posted October 8, 2023 What does the HD files come with? Quote
Christopher R Taylor Posted October 10, 2023 Report Posted October 10, 2023 (edited) The HD files bundled with the Western Hero pdf have all the vehicles listed in the book as well as many of the NPCs found in the adventures etc. The Greatest Guns Who Never Were has the HD files of various fictional characters from movies and TV shows, a free download The Greatest Guns of History has the HD files of the various real life personalities from the old west, also a free download. Also included is a build of all the new Western-related talents in the book. *edited: the talent builds are in the Greatest Guns download, no the Western Hero download Edited October 11, 2023 by Christopher R Taylor Steve 1 Quote
Stanley T Posted November 7 Report Posted November 7 (edited) I should probably post this in Other thread, but... Should there be a second The Greatest Guns Who Never Wear (Part 2, Electric Boogaloo)? If so, who would you put in it? My list .. El Zorro and his horse Tornanado. The original western pulp character/comic book character The Ghost Rider. Vash the Stampede. Torchiro and Harlock from Gun Frontier (with a small note explaing about the far future versions of the characters as space pirate engineer and space pirate captain respectfully). Who else?
