Re: [DL] Which System to Use for a New Game

Easy there guys.

I just might have to agree with him.

There's a difference between "putting the rules together" and the rules 
themselves.  As the third major go over of the Deadlands setting and as the 
umpteenth D20 book out there, there is naturally a stronger base of 
experience to build from - creating a stronger book overall.
Think of it this way - both systems have been playtested extensively before 
the DL D20 book came out, allowing the author to easily grab what works and 
concentrate on just merging the two paradigms.

To make a long story short - PEG did an excellent job of putting this book 
together.  Considering the constraints and limitations they had to work 
under, I also think that they did an miraculous job of porting over what 
they could of that "Old West" feel.
