Conclusion

Six-Gun Doomsday is based on the Cypher System from Monte Cook Games, with modifications to fit the setting. Monte Cook Games is preparing an updated rulesset for the Cypher System, which has been said to be at least a year away. One major change will be the way characters take damage. Since Six-Gun Doomsday uses it’s own simple and dramatic damage system, your game continues with no needs for updates.
