PIONEER PREVIEW - MEET BOOMSTICK

October 14TH, 2025

New Pioneer preview trailers for Fatal Frontier 1869 have just dropped on YouTube.

YouTube Pioneer Preview is Here. Meet William “Boomstick Bob” Barkley, the man who believes there’s no problem a stick of dynamite can’t solve. A former railroad demolitionist turned freelance mountain flattener, Boomstick Bob carved his legend out of thunder and flame. Once hired to blast tunnels through frozen Alaskan rock, he stuck around when he realized the veins of gold Ore were just as eager to burst open under his watchful eye and short fuse.

Boomstick Bob is equal parts genius and lunatic — a pioneer whose campfire stories often end with something exploding. Tough as rawhide and twice as loud, he’s been known to cook beans with dynamite when the firewood ran out (and sometimes when it didn’t). His hands are scarred, his beard is singed, and his laugh can rattle a whiskey bottle clean off a saloon shelf. Bob’s a man who treats every mining site like a battlefield — and every fuse like a promise waiting to be lit.

Traits:
💥 Crater Expectations — Years of blasting rails and rock have made Bob a master of controlled chaos. His dynamite blasts deals 10% more Damage and yields 10% more Ore when prospecting. Just be sure to stand behind him when he lights the fuse — Boomstick Bob doesn’t always count to three.
