Teaching moment: A player asked how aim is calculated on a brawling attack with a 2H weapon. The main question was: is 2H skill used? The answer to that is no. 1H & 2H skill are only used when shooting. When attacking or throwing the only skill used is BR. So aim is Wielding Factor + BR skill. Although not specifically stated for throws, since they are considered a brawling attack, I use the same method to calculate aim. The difference being a player may Aim a throw, which would add to the final aim. Also, remember, if a weapon is in the proper hand/s box, it MUST be used for the attack.

There was also a question of how to handle a cocked weapon used in a brawling attack. I can find no mention of this in the rules. Therefore, a cocked weapon will stay cocked in this situation.

Teaching Moments: The Draw & Cock cards can be used to do both actions at the same time. There is no need to play a separate "cock" action.
We also saw a good reason to not carry cocked weapons that you don't intend to fire soon. A WILD SHOT causes all cocked guns you are carrying to fire harmlessly.
John Henry intended a LEG hit. Unfortunately the result card showed CRIT, not BE. It's the luck of the draw. He hit him leg, and likely the femoral artery. The danger of gunplay.

Buffalo Bill Cody endurance reduced from 4 to 3
Border Rider delay reduced from 1 to 0

John Henry endurance reduced from 20 to 18
Barkeep delay reduced from 2 to 1

Note: Although Andy's SH50 was cocked, the rules do not say it fires. I know, that doesn't make sense since if it were dropped it would. For now we'll stick with the rules as they are. (Remember there was a question earlier about attacking with a cocked weapon, which the rules also don't cover.) However, I have been discussing this very thing with Tom Cundiff lately (for those that don't know Tom, he is probably the ultimate authority on GSL) and he assures me (being a gun enthusiast as well) that the rule about a gun firing when dropped is not realistic. In future showdowns, that rule will be ignored. We will continue to use it for this showdown.

Also, for planning purposes, Monday is a holiday in the U.S. so the turn 8 deadline will be soft and no reminder will be sent that day.

Next deadline: turn 7 due Friday, May 28 at 4pm EDT/8pm UTC

Andy delay reduced from 3 to 1
Andy endurance reduced from 25 to 22
John Henry delay reduced from 4 to 2
John Henry endurance reduced from 18 to 17
Barkeep delay reduced from 5 to 2

Note: Another interesting anomoly of the rules showed up this turn. Even though Mountain Man and Andy are in the same hex, since Mountain Man has a Head counter on the board his range MUST be counted from his Head counter. That's why his shot was Range 2 (although it didn't matter in this case), 1 hex from Head to Andy, +1 for Head counter. Also, if Andy had shot/attcked this turn he would have had range 0 since he does not have a head counter on the board.

Since Monday is a U.S. holiday I have decided to skip the Monday turn. Also, the Wednesday and Friday turns will likely be about 2 hours late (around 6pm EDT) however the deadline will still be the same.
