Welcome to the Frothers Unite! Doomtown page. Us frothers like nothin" better at a shin-dig than a little multiplayer Doomtown, and some have even gone so far as to enter into some competitions (results ranging from UnclEvl just missing the quarter-finals at GenCon UK 2000 to Doc placing second in the 2002 SELWG Shootout). As usual us frothers won"t try to reproduce what others have done better, instead we"ll point you at the other frothers doing their thang and try to fill any gaps we see. Here we go then...

By the way pardner, if this site ain"t lookin" too much like the wild west, why not download this cool font (courtesy of Rich Gast) to make ya feel more at home?
Theres plenny more western fonts at 1001 fonts too...

Fourhman.com has a new home for the Lost Angels, which Mike Z got to design as a prize for winning the '04 US Championships at GenCon SoCal. Looks pretty tough to me (three free cheating cards to start the game?) but we shall see. Its a beta version so could be in for revision if it gets too hairy, though no doubt the "you shouldn't ever get away with cheating" brigade will argue that its only unfair to stacked decks and therefore could not be unbalanced. +1 Influence and +3 Value to all Blessed too.
