Does the lady deputy (or whatever she is) who's with us fire back as well?

14 + 3 on the D20

I'll fire back with my new pistol as well. Roll 4 on the D6.
Could you roll a d4 as well? Your new pistol is d6+d4.

She does! She's Boone's "common-law wife", but not married to him.

Well, after opening fire on the Bean Bunch and missing everyone except Cadaver Kid (who is hit, but shrugs off the pain and gains a sixteenth scar), the Bean Bunch return fire and all five Incorporation goons hit the dirt, going down beneath a hail of flying lead.

Now they're lying sprawled in the street, bloody and perforated.

Looting their corpses reveals:

x5 automatic-pistols (2d4* damage). Those with standard revolvers might want to think about replacing them with these.

1x brass button

1x safety pin

1x fountain pen

1x stub from a train ticket from Covett City

1x a dirty apple


The blacksmith's shop is just ahead.

The Cadaver Kid took the bullet on the side of his body where all his nerves have been burned away, so he just takes it in his stride.

I wouldn't mind having dual automatic pistols if there are enough going around.

I'd like an automatic pistol as well. Anything I can toss away to make it fit? Can Rufus carry anything for that matter?

Could we perhaps, use the dead guys pistol belts and strap them around the pigs body, turning him into a mobile weapons chest?

Doc is happy with his +1 Revolvers, so doesn't require any of this loot.

You could toss aside your knife, since you already have a tomahawk as a (superior) melee weapon.

That being so:

Cumflutter takes an auto-pistol, Cadaver Kid takes one, Scrancher takes two and Miss Pitts will take the fifth and final.

I guess our next move as we're here is to have a quick look in the smithy.

How does it appear from the outside?

You tie a belt of pistol ammo around the pig's belly (you can't fit it in your own pockets).


The blacksmith's shop has not yet succumbed to the flames; it looks something like this:

Could somebody roll me a d6+1?
