Frontier Scum corebookOutlaw! This all-new Frontier Scum Bundle presents .PDF ebooks of Frontier Scum, the rules-lite Acid Western tabletop roleplaying game from Games Omnivorous about helter-skelter gunfights in guttermucked streets, with death following 2d6 days later. You're no-good outlaws on a fictional Lost Frontier – Discharged Deputies, Ghoulish Undertakers, Recurrent Jailbirds, Highfalutin Inventor Sorts – all drifting from one flyspeck town to the next, chasing a payday, a grudge, or just the next sundown. What keeps you from getting clear? The law, rival gangs, and your own bad impulses. You spend your ill-gotten coin on bad whiskey and worse ideas, stay an inch ahead of the marshals, and hope you can ditch this one-horse town afore the gentlefolk figger it were you.

The Hat Rule from page 29 of the Frontier Scum rulebookKarl Druid's Frontier Scum started as a scrappy Mörk Borg hack, then grew into its own ENNIE-winning game (Silver, Best Layout & Design, 2023). The stripped-down ruleset is styled as an old almanac to immerse you in the setting. Out in these parts, guns hit almost automatically – pull the trigger and go straight to a damage roll – so the only thing between you and a bullet is the Hat Rule. (Instead of losing hit points, you say the shot knocked off your hat. After the gunfight, roll to see if your hat survived.) Burn an Ace to reroll a bad result – get Drunk and watch your stats swap places – fail a Death Check and go out in a d10-minute blaze of glory (or rot from a d4-week mortal wound). Frontier Scum dishes out one-shot bloodbaths and chaotic campaigns for fans of Deadwood, Tombstone, and long one-way rides into the sunset.

Page 8 of the Tides of Rot adventure for Frontier ScumThis all-new Frontier Scum Bundle presents almost the entire line for less than the price of a Duke of Death Deluxe Explosives Thrower from the Dalliance Dynamite Co. (grenades sold separately). For just US$7.95 you get all four titles in our Frontier Collection (retail value US$39) as DRM-free ebooks, including the complete Frontier Scum corebook, the splattercrawl adventure (with soundtrack!) Tides of Rot, the frozen-wastes scenario Corpse Trail to Hell, and the gunsmith's pamphlet Scumslinger's Arsenal.
