Review of Night Train


Goto [ Index ]
Night Train has a bad reputation on the Deadlands mailing list. It's known as a posse-killer - and, if you're not careful, that's true. It can wipe out an entire posse very quickly.

The scenario - basically - involves the posse being hired to help guard a vicious outlaw. After attempting to stop the town from lynching him, a weird train pulls into town - one full of nosferatu (or noseferrets, as one character in the fiction section calls them, though that gives the impression of furry creatures with a nasal afinity to me).

The adventure is straightforward. There isn't much to it past what's described; it is a good one session adventure. I'd definitely recommend it.

Style: 3 (Average)
Substance: 4 (Meaty)
