RPG? Skirmish? War game? You've got to be more specific than just 'game', Anon.

Take mechanics you like, that most suit playing as cowboys, and mix in whatever you want.
You don't need to buy books.
You don't need to stick with one rule set.

GURPS can run a very good cowboy game, quite easily.

Cowboys is one of the better genre books.

>custom building a tabletop game from mechanics you like is the same thing as a medium revolving around flavor chemistry and thermodynamics
I want to know what sort of retardation is involved with this line of thinking.
Please, I insist. Tell me.

Picrel for RPGs if you like Year Zero Engine and don't want weird elements.

I have a very DCC oriented LGS near me and I never see or hear anything about this game. What's it got that you like so much?

Deadlands is way too up its own ass about its own setting. Get some fucking taste.

Is your problem with Savage Worlds in general, or Deadlands specifically? Because SW still works for pulpy westerns even without the Deadlands setting.

There's also a western splat for the generic Everywhen system, but I cannot attest to how good it is.

Is a good system, but not if you wanna heavily rely on combat encounters to carry the experience. In my opinion.
