The "other two characters" are based on Terence Hill (Mario Girotti ) and Bud Spencer (the great and missed Carlo Pedersoli). I don't recall if they had more western movies, but with Lo chiamavano Trinità is more than enough
@@chriscriscione1279no, he came back a few months ago in a limited capacity. He also has his own channel now, FOBG (Flipside of Board Games) if you’re not aware 😄
@@chriscriscione1279I’m back on the channel in a part-time capacity since about February 2024. I provide a couple videos a week and a segment for Smorgasbord, too.
This is basically what Bang! The Bullet was for the card game. I don't need both games, but the thought of having a stick of dynamite next to the bullet is amusing 😂
Totally get that sentiment, but the two things I would say to that is that the card game is considerably longer than the dice game, and the dice game provides the same relief for the itch that the card game initiates, but in a faster paced environment that doesn’t take as long. For me, those things make the dice game a superior choice. Thanks for watching though! I appreciate it!
@@SamHealey6 Good points. I prefer the mechanics of the card game. As far as length is concerned, the event cards fix that. Once "High Noon" or "A Fistful of Cards" show up on the 15th round, the endgame comes quickly. Playing without either is just asking for the game to overstay its welcome.
ua-cam.com/video/9i_S23Ti-sQ/v-deo.htmlm48s Just to clarify, you can't use both the Loudmouth and Coward dice at the same time (according to the Old saloon rules under module 1).
I think the one con that I wished was improved is changing references to “Indians” as that term is a little outdated and is considered offensive (at least here in Canada). Now, the positive reality of the game is that the Indigenous people aren’t the villains. Pretty much every character is violent and despicable (they are, after all, shooting each other down) and when they’re sowing violence in indigenous territory, getting a few arrows fired in their direction seems pretty reasonable. All that said, I’m especially mindful of who I play Bang with as it does have the potential to make people uncomfortable just based on the use of that word.

I remember playing the dice version and prefering the cards! That said, I really wanna try this again!
I missed the return of sam healey? how many months behind am I?
I think I missed it too. Is this a one off GenCon /Summer Special?

Thanks for that clarification! I know that, but did misspeak during the overview. Appreciate it!
If there are no cons why not a 10/10 score?
Because there are no perfect games, in my opinion. Just because I don’t have anything I dislike enough to make it a con doesn’t mean it’s perfect.
@@SamHealey6That’s a nice way to put it. So Sam’s 9’s are 10’s ;)
❤

You know who isn't offended by the term "indian"?
Indians.
