Sadly, no. Just Origins this summer.  (Stupid friends getting stupid 
married... grumble...)

This is just a guess, but since adventures (Dead Presidents) are already 
being produced with dual stats (Deadlands and D20) then it should be out 
fairly soon. I'm hoping for Origins.

That's my preferred method with a new group or a new game. Gives everyone a 
feel for the different character types and the flow/tone of the game. It 
also lets the GM "test drive" the engine and make any mistakes upfront, or 
try out a house rule or two without skewing anything in the long term.
