Great to see there's finally going to be a self-contained version of Deadlands. Trying to get into the last version, and trying to match with different SW versions, was too much.

These are challenges of communication we all have to face, which means we got decent solutions for them!

For prep, I found Sly Flourish's Lazy DM's Guide to be incredibly useful. They now have the content freely available online as a "resource document". I read the revised book as a pdf, but this is free and seems to cover the same content. Here's their top tips for GMs too.

They also cover some nice ways to establish tone. It definitely depends on the group and coming to a consensus on the style of play, but you can write up the hook for the campaign or if not a campaign, the sandbox or whatever else kind of game it is. Here's an RPG preference sheet that may help cover some taste preferences and help you communicate what the game is about or ask what people are looking for in a game.

I'm getting the distinct feeling that we won't be getting a 6th edition version of GPC for a long time, if ever.

It feels like they are going to release individual adventures, either reprints of older editions or stuff pulled from earlier GPCs, and that'll be that.
