It plays like a age of empire 2, but it's wild west setting with a nice sepia colorstyle, historical campaign and even a level editor.
It's fun to play it despite some features which are not clearly explained which are interesting such as moral or experience for the units, or the robbery.
It would need a community to patch it and make it run like before on modern machines while fixing bugs.
I wish the game could be more known and explored because it worthes it
I loved this game!! I used to come home from school and play this every day. I put hundreds of hours into this when I was a kid. I thought this was on GOG already and was disappointed when it wasn't. I have been looking to play this game again for years.
A beloved childhood game, and it definitely could use some help to run on modern machines.
I loved playing as the Mexican faction, they had the biggest cannons.
If it's able to be brought to GOG, do make sure to get the expansion since it has a lot of game balance and engine fixes!
If you want to have fun playing a classic early 2000s RTS game, then America: No Peace Beyond The Line is that game. I played this game a lot when I was a kid. To me, what made this game fun to play was how certain units of each faction had certain abilities; like herding livestock, being capable of seeing camouflaged units or spike pits, or hijacking transport wagons and robbing banks or Catholic missions. This game is sort of unique, a lot of other games are either settlement building/management or just action, this game is a hybrid of the two. I remember that in a lot of the missions, you had to establishment a new settlement or expand a small existing one, defend your settlement from attacks from the other factions, and go achieve the mission objective, which usually was you train a militia or a small army and go "take out" the leader of another faction or destroy the headquarters building. When your civilian units take wood to the sawmill or food to the farm, those resources are automatically in your inventory, but when they take gold to the gold warehouse, transport wagons have to haul the gold from the gold warehouse to your headquarters building in order for you to get the gold in your inventory. There is a risk that your transport wagons could be hijacked by another faction, but you can hijack their's as well. Rifles and horses are also resources in the game. I do remember that there were a few minor glitches in this game, but they never bothered me a lot. I have not played this game in many years and yearn to play it again. I have tried to download this game from other lesser known websites, but the download would not even start with any of them. If GOG can blow the dust off of this good old classic and bring it back to life, I would greatly appreciate it and I am sure a lot of other folks would too.
I've read about this game some time ago.
I think I've tried a demo once but it ran so bad on my system back then I was unable to play it.
Looks very interesting and may need the GOG treatment.
I enjoy age of empires esque games, and this one was just what made me think, as a kid, that games can do really well in this format! I love strategy and the theme of wild west RTS is such a rare oddity that there is nothing else like it out there, and probably never will. Its next to impossible to find a physical copy now nor to buy it online for any website so this would just bring back hundreds of hours of nostalgia back to me and for many more of the lovers for this genere

Valkyria Chronicles RemasteredValkyria Chronicles is a tactical role-playing game developed and published by Sega for the PlayStation 3 in 2008. A Microsoft Windows version was released on November 11, 2014. A remastered version for PlayStation 4 was released in Japan on February 10, 2016 with a Western release planned for May 2016. Both PC and PS4 versions include previously released DLC.
The game is set in fictional Europa, loosely based on Europe during the early years of World War II. Because of its abundance of Ragnite ore, which takes the place of petroleum in the game setting, the neutral nation of Gallia comes under attack from the East Europan Imperial Alliance, which is itself engaged in war with the Atlantic Federation. Players take control of a unit of the Gallian Militia, dedicated to repelling the invasion. The game's visuals, which use Sega's CANVAS graphics engine, resemble pencil drawn paintings in motion.Action Fantasy Warfare Drama
Metal Gear AcidMetal Gear Acid is a turn-based collectable card game. It was the first game in the Metal Gear series for the PSP. A Java ME version for mobile phones was released by Glu Mobile in 2008 titled Metal Gear Acid Mobile.
Acid focuses on turn-based tactics, using a trading card-based system to control the main character's movements and actions. Acid in the name stands for "Active Command Intelligence Duel". The cards are not truly collectable, as the game is complete with a single purchase. However, the game does feature deck design and deck optimization elements. The game allows for multiplayer gameplay by wireless ad-hoc connections of two PSPs.
Before each round, the player can customize the deck of cards used by the main characters. Most cards are based on elements spanning the entire Metal Gear series, such as weaponry, characters, and even the Metal Gear itself. When the game is started, the player's hand can consist of a maximum of six cards. The maximum number of cards in a deck increases with overall progress. In action mode, the player can choose to use the cards as intended or use them to move the character. Most cards only allow the player to move three spaces, while certain cards let the player move up to six or higher.
Cost is an important factor in gameplay and can be summed up as the weight of the player's action. With some exceptions, all cards have a cost attached to them and when used this cost transfers to the player. Cost varies radically from card to card. The higher the cost a character has, the longer that character must wait until their next turn. For example: if a player character has a cost of 15 and a guard has a cost of 10, then the guard's turn would occur before the character's.
Some cards can be equipped; cards such as weapon cards, can have other cards attached to them in order to improve performance. In order to fire the weapon, another weapon card that uses the same kind of ammunition must be equipped. Some weapons don't need to be equipped and can be used by themselves, however, they are discarded afterwards. Other cards that can be equipped include equipment cards and action cards.
Multiplayer, or "Link Battle", is also a new feature. Two PSP systems running Acid can link wirelessly, allowing players to face each other in a "sneak-off". The objective is to collect several diskettes before the rival player. Diskettes can be stolen by another player, so there is an emphasis on avoiding detection.Stealth

Wild Arms XFWild Arms XF is a 2D turn-based tactical role-playing game, creating a gameplay experience somewhere between Dungeons & Dragons and chess. Players are given control of a small squad of characters (six or less) and placed on a grid-based map resembling a geographical location (a swamp, a town, a river), upon which they fight battles to progress through the game. As with most T/RPGs, positional advantage can be critical to victory, and players are encouraged to outmaneuver their enemies as well as outgun them. The game emphasizes positioning and maneuvering by the inclusion of "Formation Arts," which increase attack damage when an enemy is surrounded by your characters in a line, a triangle or a circle. Wild Arms XF is a member of the small subsection of T/RPGs whose battlefields are based around hexagonal tiles instead of squares. "Combination Arts" return from previous Wild ARMs titles, allowing characters to target an enemy in a waiting state and then deliver their attacks simultaneously with the next ally to attack their target. If the player succeeds in executing an uninterrupted series of commands, the damage inflicted upon enemies will increase significantly. On the other hand, the enemy gets the same advantage.Fantasy
