Beautiful. And please do. I need to reward my junker in a few sessions, a
chance at a flashy gun (other than his AK-47 that he carries around) seems like
a good enough idea.

Oh, btw, about your tracers, maybe you use tracers differently. If I were to
play (thus far, I have yet to play a non-con game of HoE, other than
marshalling), I'd put my tracers as the last three or so bullets in my gun (if
rifle; one or two if a pistol, perhaps back to 3 in a Tokarev), so I'd know
when I'm out of ammo. 

Which reminds me: how do you marshalls handle players always knowing when
they're out of ammo? I can understand the 3d12 smarts gunfighter being able to
count shots on full automatic from a gun he's had for ten years, but the
average "I was a [censored] accountant before the war" learning how to count
shots? Well, maybe the accountant.

I've always had this problem in character in Weird West. Do I shoot and waste
an action, knowing I have no bullets left? I could always tell when John
Wright's derringer was out of ammo, but Ding Chavez's M-16 rifle?
