Multiple guns for extra dice?
PeterAdkison:
I have a min-max player in my group who gave himself like 5 guns. Each has the appropriate back story and all but I'm anticipating that in the middle of a tough gun fight he'll start switching guns to get more dice. Is that legal?

I am far from an expert on the rules, but my understanding, perfectly legal. To use them all in a gun fight, it would have to make narrative sense however: maybe he exhausts bullets in one and has to drop it and pull another, or maybe he'll "take a blow" where the gun falls from his grip. Remember that he's going to be going obviously armed in all situations: that's going to have a big impact on the way people treat him.
Vincent himself tends to point out that having all those guns is going to make it awfully tempting for that player to pull out one of them in any confrontation, so give him plenty of situations where it's a tough decision to do so. Just as it's perfectly legal for him to carry five guns, it's perfectly legal for you to suggest a confrontation where the stakes are "Does your Dog get shot?" and then pull a "Wako Kid" on him: link
PeterBB:
Vincent has said before that he loves it when his players have lots of big items, especially guns. Lots of temptation to pull them out and use them.
Dogs isn't about winning or losing, it's about deciding how far you are willing to go to get what you want. If you put him up against a little old lady, or his brother, and he's willing to use the guns? That's pretty intense, and therefore pretty awesome.
jburneko:
Perfectly Legal.
How To Fix It: Have a scared, desperate, sad-eyed 15 year old girl start shooting at him.

Yeah. Or an eight year old who thinks its a toy gun.
