Designed to be miniature and scale agnostic, General Glen’s can be played with everything from highly detailed metal or plastic miniatures, to bargain bin toy cowboys. General Glen’s is also flexible in terms of game size and duration. Games can range from small engagements where two players each control a single squad, to epic battles where eight players controlling allied squads struggle for supremacy. Where Showdown really shines is in its detailed campaign system. Over the course of multiple games, players’ models change and evolve as they accumulate new skills and equipment, or suffer debilitating injuries. Be careful, as survival is never guaranteed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003ePlayers create their own custom squads in Showdown, first choosing their faction from a range of Wild West cinematic archetypes. The four factions, Gunslingers, Hombres, Soldiers, and Warriors, have access to different equipment and skills that lend themselves to different playstyles. After choosing their factions, players create the members of their squad by assigning them levels of experience and training, then outfitting them with a range of historical weapons and equipment, as well as useful skills. Choose carefully. The choices made for each model not only determine how they will start a campaign, but how they will improve as the campaign progresses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eAlthough Showdown uses the same d12 System as Red Shirt Games’ other products, there are a few differences. The largest one is the campaign system, while another is the ability for models to kneel or drop prone. This limits their field of view, but makes them harder to spot or hit in the process. Crafty players can use this to take full advantage of cover and concealment. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eAlong with the rules needed to play the game, this purchase includes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst\" style=\"margin-left: 54.0pt; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: -18.0pt; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e·\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e         \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eSample Unit Record Sheets\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle\" style=\"margin-left: 54.0pt; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: -18.0pt; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e·\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e         \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eBlank Unit Record Sheets to make your own squads\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle\" style=\"margin-left: 54.0pt; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: -18.0pt; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e·\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e         \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eQuick reference sheets\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpLast\" style=\"margin-left: 54.0pt; mso-add-space: auto; text-indent: -18.0pt; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2;\"\u003e\u003c!-- [if !supportLists]--\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: Symbol; mso-fareast-font-family: Symbol; mso-bidi-font-family: Symbol; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-list: Ignore;\"\u003e·\u003cspan style=\"font: 7.0pt 'Times New Roman';\"\u003e         \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--[endif]--\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eCounters\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eThe d12 System\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003eShowdown uses the same core d12 System as many other Red Shirt Games products, which is designed to be easy to learn while rewarding careful tactical thinking by each player.
