## Description
Ever wanted to play the quintessential hero of the Old West? The Cowboy Hero Pack brings that rugged spirit into the dark and twisted world of Shadows of Brimstone. You'll step into the boots of a frontier legend—tough, hearty folk who can shrug off most physical and mental damage that would break a normal person. Whether you're herding cattle, fighting off outlaws, or battling nightmarish demons on the trail, the Cowboy is the ultimate watchman of the frontier.

The Cowboy's biggest asset is their potentially endless supply of 'Grit,' a resource that represents their sheer determination and toughness. But they aren't just tanks; they bring utility to the team with their Lasso, allowing them to rope opponents and keep them tied up and under control. This combination of durability and crowd control makes them a powerhouse in any cooperative party.

Inside the box, you'll find high-detail resin miniatures (both male and female versions), two 30mm plastic bases, and a double-sided Hero Character Sheet. To get you started on your journey, the pack also includes a rulesheet, a Cowboy Upgrade Chart, starting upgrade cards, and essential starting gear. It's a complete kit to add a legendary frontier fighter to your campaign. If you love the thrill of living on the edge and fighting the supernatural with a six-shooter and a rope, this is the expansion you need. Yeehaaawwww!

## FAQ
