Actually if I recall the rules in the Devils towers just say that they shoot 
treat her pistol as a caseless gatlin pistol.  Although its entirely 
possible she has some sort of custom pistol.  But it don't exist in any 
other HOE books

Its an Identical substitue to Gasoline.  More info is avaible in The Wasted 
West and In Junkman Commeth

As for this one.  There is an old Urban Myth that says that Dr Pepper cleans 
you system of radiation. Thats why I'm sure they put it in.  Another funny 
side note on  Mountain Dew.  Pure MD(before its mixed with Carbonated water) 
  is shipped in containers marked Highly Corrosive.  It supposdly can cause 
quite painful chemical burns

Besides all of them, here is a good start.  First and Formost get the Wasted 
West.  Its the Players guide/World Book.  Its has some expanded rules and it 
gives a good overview of the whole Wasted West.

From there you need to decide what is more important...Character info, or 
Area Info.  For Character Books I would get Junkman Commeth(The Most changed 
from the main book..Extremely Valuable), the rest would really be in order 
of your preference, there all good.

As for World Books.  They are all great but I think Junkyard is a good 
start.

Finally if you lik premade adventures, Both The Boise Horror and Urban 
Renewal are great, the others you can take or leave(I really disliked Hell 
or High Water)

Anyways I hope this helps.  FYI there is a list specifically for 
HOE(HOE@gamerz.net),  I'd suggest asking more questions there since people 
in this list might get irratited by the HOE discussion.
