About the game
It's election season in Gomorrah, and it's not politics as usual. Citizens have gathered in the Town Council to vote for mayor. Huckster Wilbur Crowley faces off against mad scientist Roderick Byre. Of course, each Outfit in town has their own interests at stake as well. Doomtown: Reloaded – New Town, New Rules is the first "saddlebag" expansion for Doomtown: Reloaded. The box contains four copies each of 21 cards supporting all four outfits. The contents are non-randomized, and are identical in each box.
