Two Bits from a High Horse: The Echo's cantankerous editor, T.L. Gregory, offers his none-too-delicate opinions on one of the west's legendary firearms.

The Way it Was: The second installment of honest-to-goodness real news stories the Echo editors dug up for your readin' pleasure.

White Hat/Black Hat: This time ‘round, this recurrin' column presents a gang of the most wily, no-account, larcenous villains ever to defile the Frontier: Barstow Adams and his Outliers.

The Man and the Myth: The inaugural entry in this new column that figures to pop up ever' so often features a man who changed the west, even though he might never have set foot on the far side of Old Man River—none other than Samuel Colt.

Weapon Report: That scientist fella Hindman just can't stop writin' ‘bout guns. In a 34 gun salute to Samuel Colt, this issue's report presents descriptions, rules and stats for a variety of new shootin' irons to supplement the listings in Sidewinder: Recoiled.

And on top of all that, we toss in some nifty individual character sheets for the villains presented in the White Hat / Black Hat article.

 

What reviewers are saying...
