The Doomtown "Deadlands RPG Conversion" booklet is a 30-page digest, of fiction, map, and Savage World mechanics for key personalities and relics in Doomtown. It's also available in the dead tree Doomtown: Reloaded card game expansion, There Comes a Reckoning. The booklet's four-page story provides yet another a tantalizing glimpse of the developing Doomtown mythos. The tale suggests the return of the Guardian Angels and a certain Hooded figure, though possibly in a future expansion. My personal favorite of the book is the map, where Gomorra, located south of California's Sacramento, can be spotted. I like how, on the map, it and dozens of other places are small dots referred to as "Strange Locale". In other words, the goings on in Doomtown may not be unique to the city, and similar nightmarish shenanagens may be spread in otherwise overlooked areas throughout the map. The map is yet another hint of the Doomtown mythos of what may be going on. The major personalities of The Fourth Ring, Law Dogs, and Sloane Gang, as well as Drifters and Relics, are statted out. Most of the stats are printed a single page or on facing pages. The background of the personalities and relics provide more looks into the Doomtown mythos, beyond the quotes and flavor text on the cards. For more fiction, just search on "doomtown fiction". Finally, if you want more Doomtown Savage Worlds, pick up the Deadlands Savage World RPG!
