I have a quick note for as we move along in the weird west, about money!
From what I've seen looking at different sources, Deadlands does a pretty good job representing real world costs for 1880s, and their meal costs are actually a good base.
I play Deadlands a lot in person so I've looked into it a bit--both using other systems like GURPS, and just googling :P
For an "average worker" in an industry such as manufacturing you could expect to make about $1.34 a day, and that'd be about $345 annually in 1880.
Just something all your characters would know, when we get to payouts for jobs and such. Thank you for your time!
