After wrapping up Blades in the Dark with a crushing defeat, Tim, Andrew and I decided to give Fistful of Lead a test. In just about 2 hours we played 2 scenarios. The first, Andrew brought the Rojo Brother's Gang to shoot up the town, and hunt down the Dreaded Sidewinder Gang, who had insulted their sister. Meanwhile, Tim lead the Sidewinders to town to try to rob the bank. I played the sheriff and shopkeepers.
To make a long story short, Andrew kicked everyone's asses. Shot the sheriff off his front porch on the first turn, beat 2 bankers and 2 shopkeepers in the general store to death, killed all the Sidewinders without loosing a single man.
In scenario 2, once again Andrew led the Rojo gang. This time he was coming to town to kill a dirty squealer held in the town jail. Tim played the sheriff's posse guarding the jail. This time it was quite different. Entrenched in cover, the Posse shot the living crap out of the Rojos, killing them all, loosing only one man in the defense.
It's a fast, fun game. I think we're going to have a good time with it next time.
