With 92 cattle cards, 55 building tiles, and immersive gameplay lasting 75-150 minutes, players build their ranching empire by delivering valuable cattle, hiring workers, and upgrading infrastructure. This edition boasts enhanced components, streamlined rules, and high replayability, making it a must-have for fans of deep, strategic Euro games. ## Description From the manufacturer America in the 19th century: You are a rancher and repeatedly herd your cattle from Texas to Kansas City, where you send them off by train. This earns you money and victory points. Needless to say, each time you arrive in Kansas City, you want to have your most valuable cattle in tow. However, the "Great Western Trail" not only requires that you keep your herd in good shape, but also that you wisely use the various buildings along the trail. Also, it might be a good idea to hire capable staff: cowboys to improve your herd, craftsmen to build your very own buildings, or engineers for the important railroad line. Review: Superb and totally enjoyable game - This is a really superb euro game and plays well with two three or four players, top quality components and the board and artwork is fabulous, it takes a while to set it up for play but is well worth it. Lots of choices in how you play it and it takes a game or two just to get to grips with the various options and rules. It's one of the top rated games in BGG and I can see exactly why, I picked it up for a great price on desertcart on a black Friday deal and am delighted with the purchase. If you like Euro games like Scythe, Castles of Burgundy, Viticulture, Wingspan, Brass Birmingham, Dune etc this is a great medium weight addition. It's not too long in 2 player mode but about 2+ hours in 3 or 4 players. Nice to see a game with an insert for the cards etc as well.
