This game is under heavy construction so be careful if you decide to buy it. There is limited game play exist and there are many bugs still can break the game play. You can play the latest version FREE by downloading the DEMO. If you like the game and you want to support me you can buy it. I will be very happy about it.
Game is in playable condition but not finished yet. There are many implementations on the road but you can see the game's future after you play a two or there rounds. I tried to mix the Paradox Crusader Kings map play with X- Com battle mechanics with western theme. As a sole developer I tried to do my best and reached a certain acceptable status. I'm hoping to finish it in a 6 month.
