[HoE] What I like about the Wasted West
This is basically an upbeat counterpoint to my previous post.
1. The Weapon Descriptions.
I think it really adds a lot to the flavor of the game to have a short
description and pic of all the weapons, even if the have similar stats.
That was one of the things I liked about RIFTS. Too bad they didn't inlcude
those cheap guns that got the Sioux killed. They would've made great cursed
relics.
2. Power Armor.
No game is complete unless it has mecha, in my opininon. This is why I
spent so long trying to figure out how to use the steam armor from that
tinker gnome solo adventure in normal AD&D.
3. Hooks that give me a good idea for the sound track.
I know I'll be rummagin' around for the Sky King theme everytime my posse
meets up with the Sky Pirates.
4. Cool villains.
Throckmorton is now something other than a General Bethlehem clone. The
servitors finally offer some level between the "Unstatted Ones" and the
typical Fearmonger.
5. Descriptions for vehicles and what not.
'Nuff said.
