[DL] Timeline (1877-1886)

["Michael Maguire" <mikejmaguire@hotmail.com>]

First, the background (please feel free to give me any comments or 
suggestions - I love to hear the opinions of the people on the list!)

I've been gradually piecing together a Deadlands campaign that is intended 
to run for 10 years (game time, not real time) in the Weird West and then be 
followed by a Hell on Earth campaign with "flashback" ties to the original 
game.

Essentially, I'll be collecting and making spare copies of posse characters 
at various points in the campaign, then when I kick off HOE it will begin 
with the players going through several of the scenarios from the original 
campaign again, only this time Stone's come back and is pegging off a hero 
each scenario, altering the outcome of each adventure.

Before you ask, it's not intended to be "fair", it's intended to A:  let the 
posse know first hand what happened that brought about HOE in spite of their 
efforts, and B:  make them reeeaaallly mad about the state of affairs in 
HOE.  :-D

At any rate, what I was wondering is if anyone could point me in the 
direction of a timeline of real world or Weird West events between 1877 and 
1886, the time frame I have in mind for the Weird West campaign.

much obliged, pardners,

Mac
