Syker powers would work just fine in the Weird West, they've just found a 
new, more efficient way of channeling energy from the Hunting Grounds. 
Templars, Doomsayers, and Junkers, however, are out of luck. In the case of 
Templars, many of the Saints are still alive or haven't been born yet, so 
their powers won't work. Likewise, Doomsayers don't have the high background 
radiation level they need to perform their miracles. There are very few 
"free" tech spirits in the Hunting Grounds during the Weird West period. so 
the TN of all junker tool tricks and powers are increased by a whopping +8.

As for the Fortress o' Fear, I couldn't really tell you. That's one of the 
Weird West products with which I had absolutely no contact during its 
production, and I haven't got around to reading it yet. The best person to 
ask would be Hal Mangold (Peghal@aol.com), the Weird West brand manager. He 
wrote the second adventure in that series and did much of the layout work on 
Fortress. Sorry.
