[HoE] Old Movie Question
Okay, here's something my posse and I thought kind of interesting and
wanted to get the listserve's thoughts on the matter. During my last
session, while the group is in a momentary (and slowly building) lull
and much needed R&R at a self-crafted town (Fort Freedom Point in New
Mexico), on of the players, while at a casino, decided to sit and watch
the slug player, which happened to be showing "Gone With the Wind."
Now, I chose that movie, primarily because it was one everyone could
reference (who hasn't heard of the thing) and because...well...its
sitting in my wife's and my video collection and I was looking at them
for ideas when I wrote the adventure. But the player had an interesting
question, and one, I am ashamed to admit, I hadn't preparred for. Its
one of minor contention and did not interrupt the flow of the game, but
its one I thought we might have fun kicking around...
What was different in the movie?
The movie takes place during the Civil War...after Gettysburg...so...how
differently did the movie proceed? Did the scene of vast violence,
where the wounded soldiers are spread out amongst the town and fields
proceed differently? I.e. did the dead begin getting up and terrorizing
the other troops...and Scarlet? What, if anything, occured differently?
