GURPS Classic: Old West

ADD TO WISHLIST >

How the West Was Won

The American frontier was a legend, even while it was happening. Gunfighters, Indians, cowboys, miners, and mountain men, the Pony Express, the Texas Rangers and the outlaws they fought, the "rust-eaters" who pushed the rails west, the settlers battling fires, floods, stampedes, and sickness . . . their adventures made the nation what it is today!

GURPS Old West has:

  • All the classic character types: the Cowhand, the Dude, the Gunslinger, the Doc, the Gambler, the Outlaw, and the Lawman . . . even the town drunk.
  • Descriptions of authentic Western weaponry.
  • Maps showing the Westward expansion, trails, rail lines, and more - and a detailed timeline of significant events.
  • Descriptions of Indian tribes . . . and new rules and rituals for Indian magic!
  • Legends of the Old West . . . to come alive in your campaign.
  • The battles that shook the West, from the Indian uprisings to the Civil War.

Suggestions for designing campaigns and one-off adventures, from historic to cinematic to "The Weird, Weird West" with ghosts, shapeshifters, and steampunk science!

Come West if you've got the guts for it. The weak die on the trail, and the cowards never leave home. Let's see what you're made of, pardner!

(This is a digital reprint of a GURPS Third Edition product.)

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
