The Shootist write-up has:
--More background and history, as well as an important development relating 
the Archetype/Class to the current DL metaplot.
--A full explanation of the differences between them and Hucksters, 
including the final staking to death of the "Do cards appear in their 
hands?" question.
--Attitude: just like Hucksters look at the world through gambler's eyes, 
the book gives you a look through the eyes of a gunslinger from Hell.
--The old hexes are revised, expanded and updated for both Revised Edition 
and D20 Deadlands.
--Some brand-spankin' new Hexes like acoustic shadow.

         There you are, but please keep in mind, I *am* a little biased 
about the book.;-)
