Book excerpt: Ten-Horse Jones liked range ponies more than guns. But because his dad had been a holy terror, Tombstone and the County Commissioners of Hudspeth expected the same from his young son when they made him sheriff. It was a pretty big joke in the sleepy county because everyone knew Ten-Horse was just an easy-going gent with a fine sense of humor. But the joke was over when a masked bandit started rustling the local herds, unloosing a tornado of killings and hold-ups through the county with no one but Ten-Horse to bring back law and order.

Download or read book Texas Bandits written by Mona D. Sizer. This book was released on 2004. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Citing the adage that "those who do not study history are condemned to get it from Hollywood," popular historian Mona Sizer profiles a dozen notorious Texas outlaws and how they have been portrayed on the Silver Screen. From Pancho Villa - who was paid $25,000 by the Mutual Film Company to portray himself - to Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow (portrayed by Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty), Sizer separates fact from fancy in a fun, rollicking look at the bad guys of Texas Westerns. Sidebars ("How to Rob a Train," "How to Hold Up a Stagecoach," and "The Hollywood Posse") round out this delightful homage to actual and movie bandits alike.

Download or read book The Monsters Know What They're Doing written by Keith Ammann. This book was released on 2019-10-29. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular blog The Monsters Know What They’re Doing comes a compilation of villainous battle plans for Dungeon Masters. In the course of a Dungeons & Dragons game, a Dungeon Master has to make one decision after another in response to player behavior—and the better the players, the more unpredictable their behavior! It’s easy for even an experienced DM to get bogged down in on-the-spot decision-making or to let combat devolve into a boring slugfest, with enemies running directly at the player characters and biting, bashing, and slashing away. In The Monsters Know What They’re Doing, Keith Ammann lightens the DM’s burden by helping you understand your monsters’ abilities and develop battle plans before your fifth edition D&D game session begins. Just as soldiers don’t whip out their field manuals for the first time when they’re already under fire, a DM shouldn’t wait until the PCs have just encountered a dozen bullywugs to figure out how they advance, fight, and retreat. Easy to read and apply, The Monsters Know What They're Doing is essential reading for every DM.
