That's a problem I don't have, but I think it won't be too hard once I 
figure out a 'rosetta stone' for converting damage from effects. I'm 
not too concerned about fudging details, as the posse are supposed to 
win these fights. I figure I'll use normal HoE rules for most things 
(For example, the Syker has normal strain rules and such to deal with).

I like SW... I have no interest in converting Deadlands to it, but 
there's a lot of things to like, overall.

Fun SW concept: SW Half-folk character with the Kid hindrance and both 
Luck Edges. 7 Bennies per session...
