Blackwater Gulch Rules Released!

[Necros]

Howdy Folks!

After a year of playtesting, tweaking and revisions, Blackwater Gulch is finally done!

Blackwater Gulch is a skirmish game based on the Wild West. You can configure your models with any stats, skills or equipment you wish and the games are fast and fun. You only need a handfull of models to get started and your gangs can be as big or as small as you and your friends want them to be.

For now the rules are available in PDF format. An ePub version for your favorite handheld devices and tablets will be out in the next few days and a print-on-demand book should be ready in about 2 weeks if all goes well, which will cost around $20.

Head on over to our brand new website at http://www.blackwatergulch.com to get the rules now!

Also, on Saturday, November 5th I'll be at The Mechanicon in West Chester, PA, running demos of the game all day, probably starting around noon. So if you want to check it out, feel free to stop by for a demo!

Hey folks

It's been a while but I thought I'd post an update.

The rules are now available in a print-on-demand full color rulebook, hard and softcover. And I also recently finished the campaign add-on rules. Both are available on the website at http://www.blackwatergulch.com

I'm just starting to get miniatures designed and sculpted and they will trickle out at first. The first miniature, a Bounty Hunter, was just sculpted and I hope to have him produced and available in January. He was sculpted by Pedro Ramos, and he comes with optional hands for a variety of different weapons

And I have concept art for the Gambler and Prospector miniatures. Also with a variety of weapons. All models will be without hands, and come with a sprue of different weapons that you can mix & match among all the other models. The Gambler will be sculpted by Patrick Keith in January, and right now I'm not sure if I'll do the prospector at the same time or hold off on him for a few more weeks.

I'll be getting concept art for the other 3 professions done soon too, followed by a whole bunch of different henchmen (those will be single piece sculpts 2 to a blister), along with alternate versions of all the professions too. Lots of stuff planned, but I'm starting out slow and "affordable"

The Gambler Gang Leader is finished! I'd like to call it a green, but this one happens to be gray.

His weapon options will be a Bowie Knife, Hand Axe/Hatchet, Colt 45 or other revolver, a Derringer pocket pistol, and an extra hand with a deck of cards for fun. Maybe you can count them as throwing knives?

In other news, the Bounty Hunter is finally in the home stretch, and if all goes well (famous last words) I hope to have him available in a week or so
