This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

That is pretty much par for the course with Drive-thru previews.

Yeah, I noticed that. The ones I have seen are either random pages or the first few pages, which tend to be a table of contents and an introduction but nothing I can use to evaluate the game.

Sixgun and its expansion Fistful of Sixgun from Deep7's 1PG line is extremely rules light, perhaps too rules light. The game is designed so that all the rules needed for play fit on the character sheet, along with the character. A One Page Game.  They are designed for quick play, one-off adventures, usually emulating movie genres.

Beyond the rules the rest of the book is scenario hooks, GM advice, etc.  They are like RPG popcorn. I like them for what they are, but they are definitely a snack.

Quote from: Dumarest;961319Do you happen to have the time to go into more detail about Print the Legend? I checked that link but the preview available doesn't reveal much at all.

Not really, but you'll find more info on the Kickstarter page, there was a Q&A session at the GMshoe's Office and there's a site being put together.
