(Note: I am also posting this to the Deadlands
listserv, although I am not subscribed to it)

The following info is in the February Previews
catalog:

April Releases:

-Deadlands: Way of the Dead $15.00

Some outlaws become worm-food, but the toughest
hombres get right back up to raise more Hell in the
Weird West!  The Harrowed finally get theirs in this
64-page class book for Deadlands d20, detailing their
powers as well as new feats, skills, and prestige
classes.  (Note: The picture in the catalog is an old
one (I think) and shows two greenish hands coming up
from a grave in a moonlit graveyard while a guy with a
shovel stares in horror)


Great Rail Wars (Note: No pictures of these in the
catalog):

-Call of the Wild Bobcats $13.95
-Call of the Wild Grizzly $5.95
-Mad Scientist with Lightning $3.95
-Lady Huckster $2.95
-Wolfman Gunslinger $3.95


-Hell on Earth RPG $25.00

Radslinging Doomsayers, vengeful Law Dogs,
brain-burning sykers, scavenging Junkers and righteous
Templars all rear their ugly heads in this d20 System
treatment of the Wasted West.  The year is 2094, but
the future is not our own.  The Last War ended 13
years ago when supernatural doomsday bombs fell,
killing billions and "terrorforming" the world into a
vast Deadland.  Humanity has struggled to rebuild. 
Cities shudder berneath still-howling storms, horrors
born of radioactive nightmare stalk the land, and the
mysterious and powerful beings known as the Reckoners
manifest in the flesh.  Only by warring agsainst the
darkness that surrounds them can the heroes hope to
end this Hell on Earth.  (Note: The picture in the
catalog representing this is a old picture that was in
the world book (I think)--it's the one with the two
people hiding beneath some junk while an automaton
searches for them in the ruins near Denver)


-Lost Colony: Banshee Screams paperback $14.95

Like thousands of others, Colonial Ranger Debbi Dallas
found herself trapped on the alien world of Banshee
when the "tunnel" back to Earth collapsed.  Now, she
endeavors to bring peace between the surviving
colonists and the hostile native tribes of Banshee,
while contending with the technological might of the
United Nations Expeditionary Force, the eldritch power
of the sorcerous "skinnies", a group of villainous
terrorists called The Reapers, and the coming of the
titanic WorldStorm.  Just another day of the Lost
Colony!  (Note: The front cover picture in the catalog
is not the same as the picture on Pinnacle's website)


-Way Out West $25.00

Set in the future of 2094, after the Reckoners have
engineered a nuclear apocalypse on Earth, pioneering
settlers colonized the planet Banshee.  With the onset
of the apocalyse, the colonists found temselves
stranded on an unforgiving world where hostile natives
(anouks) and supernatural creatures plague the planet.
 This tome contains rules and setting information for
both the classic Deadlands system and d20, and
requires the Hell on Earth or Hell on Earth d20
rulebook to play. (Note: In the catalog, the picture
of the front cover shows the new Way Out West
Deadlands logo and a reddish anouk or skinny in what
looks like bone-armour)
