BANG! Osseointegrated Expansion

NOTE: All images and names used in the official BANG! (and its expansions) are copyright © dV Giochi.

Osseointegrated is an unofficial expansion to BANG! the card game and the second, designed by Quincy Thompson (me) and tested with the help of my friends at dental school. (it was completed in 2015, however the final printing was completed and Rule book finished in 2017) Osseointegrated is a expansion that builds off the official Gold Rush expansion, adding 8 new characters, 26 more playing cards and 14 more equipment cards to BANG!. It is named after a dental term along with character names coming from current faculty at my dental school and some based on fictional western heroes. Many of the other cards are inspired by and use the artwork from the custom cards made in the various unofficial expansions created on The BANG! Blog.

The Osseointegrated Rule Book provides detailed explanation of the new symbols, rules, and characters; and card by card explanations as needed.


NEW BROWN CARDS

Cheers
Cheers. Lose a gold nugget, and then give any player, including yourself, a life.

Debt Collection
Debt Colloection. Take one gold nugget from a player at a distance of 1.

Gold Mine
Loan. Gain two gold nuggets from the heap.

Gold Pan
Gold Pan. Discard a card with this card then gain one gold nugget from the heap and draw one card from the deck.
Greed
Greed. Lose one life then gain two gold nuggets from the heap.
Hit Me
Hit Me. Lose one life then draw two cards from the deck.
Joker
Joker. You may play a Joker at any time to repeat the effect of any Brown Boardered Card you last played. You may do this even out of turn. The Joker is also a wild suit, meaning when played or when it is drawn for a “draw!” you may chose the suit.

 

NEW BLUE CARDS

Peace Pipe
Peace Pipe . Play this card in front of anyother player, to smoke the Peace Pipe! If you are smoking the Peace Pipe, you must “draw!” before the beginning of your turn:
• if you draw a card showing Dimonds, you stop smoking, discard the Peace Pipe and continue your turn as normal;
• otherwise keep the Peace Pipe and you may not use a BANG! on your turn. So, if you play a Duel, you will automatically lose a life point if your opponent plays a BANG! card. A player keep smoking the Peace Pipe until a Dimond is drawn with the effect explained above, or it is drawn or discarded by a Panic! or a Cat Balou. If you have both the Peace Pipe and/or Gamble and/or a Dynamite and/or a Jail in play, check the Dynamite, Jail, and/or Gamble first (in that order).

 NEW GREEN CARDS 

Buried Treasure
Buried Treasure . Play Buried Treasure in front of you. During one of your following turns, provided you still have the card in front of you, gain three gold nuggets from the heap.

 Robbery
Robbery . Play Robbery in front of you. During one of your following turns, provided you still have the card in front of you, starting with the player to your left each player may return a gold nugget to the heap, or lose one life point.

NEW EQUIPMENT CARDS



 Curse
Curse. You may play the Curse on yourself or another player. The Curse cannot be played on the Sheriff. When you have the Curse in play it is not discarded when you are eliminated. When eliminated you or the person with the Curse on them becomes a ghost during their turn and may use their character power. On their turn the ghost draws 3 cards, plays as many cards as he wants, and then discards all exceeding cards in his hand…that means all the cards in his hand since he has no life points! At the end of his turn he is eliminated again, so all of his cards go to Vulture Sam, if this character is in play, otherwise they are discarded as usual. As the text on the card states, each “ghost” is in play until the end of his turn: if the game ends during his turn, he is considered to be in play for victory purposes. So, if the ghost was an Outlaw or a Deputy, Outlaws win because at least another player (the ghost himself) different from the Renegade is in play. If the ghost was the Renegade, he wins if after killing the Sheriff there are no other players alive, otherwise Outlaws win.

 Headdress
Headdress. The brown-bordered card may also be another BANG! You may repeat each effect one time only. If you repeat the effect of a Stagecoach or Wells Fargo, the Wild West Show card only changes the first time. Repeating the effect counts as one card played, if Miss Susanna is in play.

 Saloon Show
Saloon Show. Even though this card has the same effect, it is not considered a Gatling, Saloon, or Indians.

 Satchel
Satchel. When you have the Satchel in play you take into your hand all discarded cards from others players at the end of their turns, cards you discard at the end of your turn do not apply to this effect.
 Silver
Silver. When you have Sliver in play the distance between other players and you is increased by 1. However, you still see the other players at the normal distance.
Spyglass
Spyglass. When you have a Spyglass in play, you see all the other players at a distance decreased by 1. However, other players still see you at the normal distance. Distances less than 1 are considered to be 1.
Stetson
Stetson. When you have the Stetson you are considered to have a Barrel in play at all times; you can “draw!” when you are the target of a BANG!, and on a Heart you are missed. If you have another real Barrel card in play, you can count both of them, giving you two chances to cancel the BANG! before playing a Missed!.
U.S. Marshal
U.S. Marshal. When you have the U.S. Marshal in play, during your turn, no card in front of any other player has any effect. This applies both to the blue- as well as to the greenbordered cards. It does not apply to equipment cards.
