Ruthless: A Stranger with a Gun

ADD TO WISHLIST >

For decades the Blanco family has run the town of San Luis on the New Mexico border. So, they didn’t take to kindly to John Bannon when he rode into town and made himself the sheriff. Soon the silver mines, saloons and stage-coach were all working for him. Tensions between the Blancos and Bannon were boiling over when a quiet stranger with a wicked gun rode into town. Who will win control of San Luis?

This is a mini-campaign is loosely based on the film ‘A Fistful of Dollars” and is structured in quick “acts” that could be played in a single evening. Both sides face decisions that allow for a great deal of replay value and let the players write their own story in the West....

Players choose thier own adventure with one side picking the scenario and the other choosing the set up.  There are a possible 27 different battles that can be played.  The mini-campaign will consist of three of these gunfights.

RUTHLESS, a complete set of wester gunfight rules, is also included!  This booklet has everything you need to play!  You can watch a review of the rules on Little Wars TV on Youtube.

I'd love to buy your stuff to support your game, but please... 25$ is just too much.
Perhaps consider adjust it...

I think you will make more money by lowering the price and getting some sales

I saw this played, downloaded the rules, then came to find this scenario book.
$25 for 24 pages for a PDF ?
Are you joking? I'd pay that for a physical book, to support the game, but not a PDF. Price just isn't reasonable.

Lower the price to $12 and I will buy, and even that is moderately high price for 24 pages

Reconsider your prices

I am a big fan of this game. I have played Dead Man’s Hand, Gunfighter’s Ball and Ruthless; and, Ruthless has proven to be the overall winner, due to the card mechanic and fast-moving gameplay. That being said, I wouldn’t pay $25 for a pdf either. I would love to have some more scenarios, but not at that price point. $10-$12 sounds about right to me, $15 tops.

I would consider this expensive at $10, but I would at least consider paying that much. I wouldn't pay $25 for a 24 page physical booklet, much less pdf.

Maybe the pricing works for you, but as an avid purchaser of rules and scenario books here at wargames vault, I find your pricing out of touch.

I've read the Ruthless rules and viewed all available videos on youtube. It looks like fun and I am eager to play. That being said, I'm reluctant to pay $25 for this product unreviewed and sight unseen.

Perhaps you could post a sample page and 1 or more of the sample characters as a preview?

Definitely not worth$25.00. Seven scenarios, seven pages of character cards, a cover, and an ad for Little Wars TV (a great company).

Hi. I noticed your new release. I have to say I'm totally confused about your pricing model. Your charging more than a dollar a page for a pdf with no examples of rules or previews and essentially nothing I can see to justify this price. Help me and others understand what makes this so valuable. Maybe a play-through...something, please?

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
