"I don't have much schoolin'." "It's not that kind of test," she asserts, before immediately launching into what sounds like the old two trains maths problem.
When Luke said he didnt have much Schooling and Andy started, "There's a train travelling from the east coast..." I seriously thought he was going to give a maths problem.
The train left at 8:00 AM and is traveling at 200mph it reached it's destination at 1:00 PM. How many passengers were on the train? Delacey: 'visible confusion'

"Now if a third train is heading south-southwest at 35 miles per hour, and is due to pass by Train 1 at 2:30PM and Train 2 at 3:15PM, what is the weight of the cat on the mat?"
What you gotta do is go down the road past the old Johnson place. You're gonna find two roads, one parallel and one perpendicular. Keep going until you come to a highway that bisects it at a 45 degree angle. Solve for x.
Andy telling Luke he'll be shooting at a penalty, only for Luke to immediately respond "will I though?", was just Andy and uncanny dodge all over again. Pretty sure the similarity struck Johnny given they started cackling afterwards

They also released a sort of conversion guide for Deadlands with Savage Worlds.

Loved the Buster Scuggs reference with Arlo. It's fun how Mike is playing more or less the opposite of his usual shenangians-heavy character by playing an overly serious fellow this time. Meanwhile, Luke's also going opposite by playing a teenage Joe Pesci.

@@mar_speedmanYeti, the closest thing to a Bigfoot in the D&D 5e Monster Manual, are technically Monstrosities, and are described living like gorillas. They’re able to speak - most don’t know languages because their local dialects of Yeti - and usually chill out in the mountains hunting goats and deer and the like. In hard times whey will raid farms or towns for meat, since they’re obligate carnivores. Ape, in the animals section, could fit better, at least with a more chill Bigfoot. It’s meant to fit in for most non-human great apes like chimps, orangutans, or gorillas, so a grounded Bigfoot isn’t out of the question.
@@IndianaMiller82Think it likely originally actually came from when Andy and Luke talked about DCOM First Kid and got to the bit where main agent Sam goes to a bar instead of staying at the White House and imagined what was happening because of Sleepy Joe whose too old to still be part of the service but still hasn’t retired 😂🤣😂🤣
So are we thinking Delacy has a tragic backstory where his parents were murdered and he had to set out on his own? Or... a terrifying backstory where he actually murdered his parents and is now on a long term rampage?
Finally got time to watch the video with a nice glass of bourbon 🥃 Silas and Delacy's dynamic is immediately adorable. Kudos to Mike, what a range of characters!
I went low-key insane when i heard the music when they got back from the break; immediately recognised it from the waiting screens from Morgan Mondays, what a throwback.
Mike always makes such excellent characters. Simple premise with a small twist (in this case fear of horses) allows for endless growth. It's very entertaining.
Yeah colt gets all the press but the Remington was in some ways better. Easier to swap cylinders for fast reload and a bit stronger. Cylinder swap was more inportant in the cap and ball days where it took a lot longer to reload.
Sounds like Victoria should put her efforts into seeking a land trust - with the help of Joey Lawrence! Seriously though, great start to yet another amazing Oxventure series.

I’m looking forward to this. Andy is such a blast as Corazon, so I’m looking forward to seeing what he does on the other side of the screen. I set my notifications for this 😃.
Come to think of it, is this the first time Ellen's played a character in a campaign that doesn't mechanically reserve a subset of NPCs for her to interact with if she wants to? (Speak with animals/plants in D&D, Ghost Whisper stuff in Blades) Meanwhile, after playing a strictly fisticuffs character, Jane's back on the bargaining with spirits for power wagon - Only seemingly it's got more mechanical representation here than it does in D&D, Mike continues to play characters completely distinct from every character he's played before, Johnny continues to play old characters and Luke... Apparently enjoyed playing - and voicing - murderous orphans in Blades as NPCs so much he based his Deadlands character on them.
I love Jane's characters. they're so good in a way that's simple, but you can tell Jane has thought has thought about them as a character alot by how she performs them
Love the detail of Nate having sleep apnea, so they're in the carriage like "...is he dead" 😂 As someone with sleep apnea and who has a lot of family with it, this is hilarious to me
Long time follower here. I love Oxventure DND and Blades in the Dark. But this was absolutely amazing. Andy did a helluva job gming. And you could tell everyone enjoyed themselves. I cant wait to watch all of these episodes as well. Keep up the good content, everyone!!!
these accents, of varying quality, all mean the world to me, and I will be devastated if anyone started feeling sheepish at some point during filming and pulled back
Although if Luke needs his character to have his voice break, I wouldn't mind... ...Not because I'm not loving the voice, but because I'm kind of worried about his throat while listening to it.
@@fwbean119 I was just confused why she went straight for the deal, instead of using her normal PPs... I've already seen a huckster die due to lost deal he did not had to take. Also, I love how no one bat an eye on the sight of obvious magic in a world that should have no magic at all.
Agree she hit the ball out of the park again. But you do realise Edie is brand new compared to Lilith and especially Merilwen so it should be too early really to say wether she’s better than either
Agreed. Ellen is usually my least favourite. She makes interesting enough characters but I think she struggles more than the others with being put on the spot. She went all in here though.
This. Is. GREAT!!!! What a fantastic first episode- nearly 3 hours and it just flew by. Also, the chat was on point today with some really great puns- hats of to everyone. Looking forward to next week!
Great first episode, love the characters so far, especially Luke and Johnny's. Ellen's accent is also cool, and definitely fits her persona. Looking forward to seeing each character get more screen time in the future episode(s). Good luck and great work Andy for DM/Sheriff role on this.
I knew I would be anyway, but I am HOOKED already. Absolutely fantastic work from everyone, and Andy is absolutely crushing it! Can't wait to see where this all takes us, pardners!
So excited to see Andy in his element! Can't wait to see all the wild west shenanigans from the crew. Genuinely so hyped, I've cancelled all my Friday evenings for the next six weeks.
Loving this so far, the characters and accents are all great! I particularly love Johnny almost immediately settling on Benoit Blanc, but I should have expected that after their Weird West stream 😂
Just wow. What an amazing story, what amazing characters and what an incredible group of people. Seriously, every story you start shows how much you grow and learn and how much each member compliments the other members' playing style. I laughed so hard when Delacey shot that dude in the knee ... didn't really see that coming. Pure gold.
A Wild Weird West set adventure and non of them are good at riding horses, other then by pure luck (one even hates them :))... thats just so typical of the Oxventure guild, and that is why we love them :D
My last day of work for the week and here I am again. Re-watching this episode (probably whole series now) while eating some dinner, before I hop on the DD2 for a minute. Many, these guys are always great entertainment. They're comfort food or better, comfort view.

Revenge sometimes comes in small doses.

I expect that everyone he's tried to learn Intimidation from got Scared Off.
A Savant.
Yeah, and if he offers to show you a card trick, run while you still can.
I believe Luke might have taken persuasion thinking that skill was for intimidating

Right after he started speaking I was like, oh he's committing to THAT voice? Well that's going to be a problem by the end of the episode lol.
I'm hoping beyond hope that there's a reveal that Delacey is putting on that voice to seem more intimidating or mature or something.
My guess is someone tried to hang him, but it didn't take.
At least with Delacy being 13 Luke has an out if it gets too much - 'his voice broke'

Meanwhile, after playing a strictly fisticuffs character, Jane's back on the bargaining with spirits for power wagon - Only seemingly it's got more mechanical representation here than it does in D&D, Mike continues to play characters completely distinct from every character he's played before, Johnny continues to play old characters and Luke... Apparently enjoyed playing - and voicing - murderous orphans in Blades as NPCs so much he based his Deadlands character on them.
I love Jane's characters. they're so good in a way that's simple, but you can tell Jane has thought has thought about them as a character alot by how she performs them
Love the detail of Nate having sleep apnea, so they're in the carriage like "...is he dead" 😂
As someone with sleep apnea and who has a lot of family with it, this is hilarious to me
Long time follower here. I love Oxventure DND and Blades in the Dark. But this was absolutely amazing. Andy did a helluva job gming. And you could tell everyone enjoyed themselves. I cant wait to watch all of these episodes as well. Keep up the good content, everyone!!!
these accents, of varying quality, all mean the world to me, and I will be devastated if anyone started feeling sheepish at some point during filming and pulled back
Although if Luke needs his character to have his voice break, I wouldn't mind...
...Not because I'm not loving the voice, but because I'm kind of worried about his throat while listening to it.
Love that when there is anything magic Janes brain automatically translates it to "Demons"
To be fair, that is pretty much what the Huckster's whole deal is
@@caseybaker7935 I see why she picked it then. Girls a walking oujia board.
Almost all magic in Deadlands is influenced by demonic/hellish powers. So it's a good take on the subject.
Yeah, her brain was absolutely right in this. Hucksters face a demon, or manitou, in a battle of wits for their power.
@@fwbean119 I was just confused why she went straight for the deal, instead of using her normal PPs... I've already seen a huckster die due to lost deal he did not had to take. Also, I love how no one bat an eye on the sight of obvious magic in a world that should have no magic at all.
Ellen is absolutely brilliant in this, my favorite Ellen character to date.
Agree she hit the ball out of the park again. But you do realise Edie is brand new compared to Lilith and especially Merilwen so it should be too early really to say wether she’s better than either
Agreed. Ellen is usually my least favourite. She makes interesting enough characters but I think she struggles more than the others with being put on the spot. She went all in here though.
@discordlexia2429 yeah I hear you Ellen is the reason I no longer subscribe to outside xtra
@@drewpamon pretty rude thing to say in the comments.
@@drewpamon wtf why did you subscribe in the first place if you don’t like her enough to stay subscribed?
I played SO MUCH Deadlands when I was in high school. It makes me so happy to see you all pick it up.
I am in love with Ellen’s character and accent. Looking forward to more of this!
Oh man I can already tell Luke and Johnny's characters will be my favorite! Great storying telling by Andy!
First time seeing Andy GM. This is amazing. So proud
As someone who grew up watching old westerns with my dad and pawpaw this is everything to me! Can’t wait to see the rest!
This. Is. GREAT!!!! What a fantastic first episode- nearly 3 hours and it just flew by. Also, the chat was on point today with some really great puns- hats of to everyone. Looking forward to next week!
Cannot Wait to find out that Silas is skilled at riding and horse rearing and easily becomes a horse whisperer
I absolutely wouldn't be surprised to find out that Mike sunk points into horse skills *because* of Silas' fear of horses.
Why does this feel so aggresively on brand for Mike 😆
Great first episode, love the characters so far, especially Luke and Johnny's. Ellen's accent is also cool, and definitely fits her persona. Looking forward to seeing each character get more screen time in the future episode(s).
Good luck and great work Andy for DM/Sheriff role on this.
Alternative name for this episode: "Only Fools & Horses"
It's great to see Johnny getting to relax and enjoy the shenanigans!
They deserve the break with what they’ve had to put up with for 6 years as the usual DM for Oxventure
I feel like there needs to be some more appreciation for Andy's [redacted] growl sound effect. Well done, sir.
Silas and Delacy are the best characters so far, just for the chaos ^^
And good work on the costumes, especially the ones for Mike, Jane and Ellen
Andy absolutely killed it as GM!! His world felt so real, authentic, and immersive.
I actually write for the company that makes these books. Ive been wanting y'all to do Deadlands for some time! I'm so glad to see it!
The acting in this episode has been amazing, congratulations everyone!
Edie reframing “Pretending” and “Lying” as “Acting” in Delacy’s mind, sparking a love for the theatre and The Arts in general
I knew I would be anyway, but I am HOOKED already. Absolutely fantastic work from everyone, and Andy is absolutely crushing it! Can't wait to see where this all takes us, pardners!
Luke's kneecap twist was AMAZING
I love how Johnny‘s voice sounds like Tom Hardy’s Bane when they’re pretending they’re chewing tobacco
The frog detective
My sleep deprived brain read this and went "wait, nonbinary Bane? I don't remember Tom Hardy's Bane ever pretending to chew tobacco either!"
You guys are getting more comfortable with character acting. It's a lot of fun to watch.
So excited to see Andy in his element! Can't wait to see all the wild west shenanigans from the crew. Genuinely so hyped, I've cancelled all my Friday evenings for the next six weeks.
A great first episode. An amazing cast of characters and Andy fits the GM seat perfectly.
Silas was really channelling Egbert during those snake eyes rolls 😂
Loving this so far, the characters and accents are all great! I particularly love Johnny almost immediately settling on Benoit Blanc, but I should have expected that after their Weird West stream 😂
Putting Mike in charge of the stealth mission ended EXACTLY as I expected it to.
This was wonderful; more please!

Red harlow?
Just wow. What an amazing story, what amazing characters and what an incredible group of people. Seriously, every story you start shows how much you grow and learn and how much each member compliments the other members' playing style. I laughed so hard when Delacey shot that dude in the knee ... didn't really see that coming. Pure gold.
I love the narrative that Andy has established.
A Wild Weird West set adventure and non of them are good at riding horses, other then by pure luck (one even hates them :))... thats just so typical of the Oxventure guild, and that is why we love them :D
Everybody did such a good job, and Andy did so well as DM and now the tash makes sense. Loved it.
I don't know how accurate the accents are, but I love them and hope they never stop
And nary an artful dodger in the bunch.
I appreciate this inordinately.
My last day of work for the week and here I am again. Re-watching this episode (probably whole series now) while eating some dinner, before I hop on the DD2 for a minute. Many, these guys are always great entertainment. They're comfort food or better, comfort view.
