Westward Ho!

About

In Westward Ho! Two to six players take the role of powerbrokers building the American west, from 1848 through 1881. In each turn players take actions to move pioneers into new territories, build railroads, rake off profits from new industries, and other actions. There’s plenty of action, with the US cavalry, Indians, militia, and famous outlaws all involved. The map shows the US divided into the historic territories of the era. Cards represent famous personalities, critical commercial firms (such as Wells Fargo and the Union Pacific) and historic events. The player who accumulates the most wealth by the end of the game wins. —description from the publisher
