I am so looking forward to trying out these systems. I don't have a game going on yet, but I think I'll have to try and throw some players together and playtest it out. :D

Here's a dumb question. When Gamma Terra came out, the file name was "185_GammaTerra.pdf". Now with Pedal to the Metal, the file name is "188_GW_PedalToMetal.pdf". Is there a 186, and 187? Or anything before 185? Sorry I just want to make sure I'm not missing any content.

oh hmm factory of misfits had the number 185 in front of it too.... I'm guessing the numbers don't mean anything

It makes me want to make more augmentations on our party's Gamma Rover.

These rules seem very heavily influenced by the Savage Worlds Explorer's Edition vehicle rules, which is awesome as SWEX is tied with 4e for my favorite RPG system so a bit of crossover makes things easy to remember and easy to teach my players. I really like the map suggestion for moving firefights and intend to use it not only in my GW games but also for horse chases in D&D and vehicle chases in SWEX.
Another plus is that I can now make great use of the Deadlands: Hell on Earth post-apocalyptic vehicle tokens.
I kind of want to run a Twisted Metal or Deathrace style campaign now.
Anyhow, well done WotC on your Gamma World support. You may be dropping the ball a little on D&D with all this Essentials style nonsense, but GW is slick as hell.

They represent issue numbers of Dungeon magazine.

Did you look on the website?
Here are the PHB essentia, in my opinion: - Three Basic Rules (p 11)
- Power Types and Usage (p 54)
- Skills (p178-179)
- Feats (p 192)
- Rest and Recovery (p 263)
- All of Chapter 9 [Combat] (p 264-295)
A player needs to read the sections for building his or her character -- race, class, powers, feats, equipment, etc. But those are PC-specific. The above list is for everyone, regardless of the race or class or build or concept they are playing.
