From publisher blurb: IMPORTANT NOTE: This is NOT a complete roleplaying game. But, then again, it’s not meant to be. You hold in your hands Shotguns & Sorcery: The Player’s Guide. This comprises only 108 pages of Shotguns & Sorcery: The Roleplaying Game, less than half the original. This bargain-priced edition is meant to be used in two ways. First, it’s here to give curious players or potential Game Masters a taste of the full game. If you like what you see , you can pick up the whole thing. Second, players sometimes like to have a spare copy of the basic rules in a cheap format so they can look up things on the fly without having to borrow the Game Master’s book. If you don’t fit these bills, don’t buy this book. Go grab, the full-bore Shotguns & Sorcery: The Roleplaying Game instead. You’ll be happier for it.
