Publisher Blurb: This PDF contains everything you need to bridge your copy of the Aces & Eights Player’s Guidebook to the complete ruleset presented in the Shattered Frontier RPG product.
While the Player’s Guidebook contains full rules for running Aces & Eights, it does not include the mini-games for handling meta-adventures such as prospecting, running a cattle drive or staging a trial. These extras plus the lengthy History of the Shattered Frontier are included in this product.
