Old West 1: The Campaign

Here’s a map of a LEGENDS OF THE OLD WEST* campaign I ran many years ago. We had a dozen or so players, some of which played in every single game. Players had Cowboy, Lawmen, and Outlaw “posses”. Each had its pros and cons and their abilities would improve as the campaign went along. We had scenarios taking place all over the map from far north to across the border in the south. We even had a game where we all just played poker and used any winnings to bolster up our posses. My favorite part was gathering the “unbiased” account of each game as seen by characters after each game, via email. They were a hoot! I’d then send them out to everyone in a kind of newspaper report. Good Times! You never know, maybe I’ll do ‘nother one some day.

OLD READERS QUIZTIME! Long ago before most of us were even born (1950’s and 1960’s), there was a whole slew of Westerns on TV. Here’s a photo of some of the ABC stars. How many can you name? What shows were they on? Bonus points if you can identify the character each played.
