IC: PbtA Weird Western


I'm working on-- am mostly done working on, I think? --a game of PbtA (you know, like Dungeon World) western.

I started from the PbtA hack GUNSIGHT by Christopher Wargo, then threw out some stuff, then threw out some more stuff, then started adding my own fantasy/horror stuff like it was Deadlands...

Who here would be interested in a Horror-Weird-Western, or at least hearing more about it, raise your hands...

I'm always interested in weird stuff, and PbtA is a neat system. Tell me more!

Imagine a world where humans from Dungeon World sailed across the sea to the west, found a new land where magic and miracles no longer worked (but some basic principles of science and engineering did), colonized it for timber and logging purposes, then kept expanding west until they found a big long wide north-south river that divided the new continent... and things got interesting over on the other side... Time passed, guns and rifles took the place of spells and crossbows, gold and silver mines were opened...

...And then the local ancient spirits put their foot down and cursed the despoilers of the new land (with undead and other monsters)...
