- | Ghost Town ]I[: The Final Draw |
- ---------------------------------------------------
-
- On September 17, 1883, in the newly validated California, Indians became
- scarce and a band of evil villians stormed and raided the gold-enchanted coast.
- Their name was the Pioneers of Destruction; they truly have lived up to their
- name in the past three years. During these three years, you have been
- unsuccessfully tracking Billy the Kid, and you suspect he is the leader of this
- evil group. On the other hand, you have been enjoying yourself in the warm
- comfort of the people who have heard of your past heoric deeds. However, this
- has drastically changed; talk of villages being rampaged and innocent people
- being killed have become more frequent. As a former promise to spread good
- throughout the world, you are driven to destroy the Pioneers of Destruction.
-
- The main goal may seem difficult at first, but there is yet another
- obstacle: you must build camps, guard them and hide out in them because other
- cowboys may not be as friendly as you. They may try to take over your camps
- and bring you total devastation. The reason other cowboys try to kill you is
- because of greed; whoever destroys the Pioneers of Destruction gets a 300,000
- gold piece reward.
- To finish your quest you will have many other dangers. For instance the
- desserts hold the mysterious quicksand traps; in the forest are grizzly bears.
- Other hidden dangers are in various different terrains. They are as follows:
- swamps, shallow rivers, brush, grasslands, mountains, dirt roads, towns,
- graveyards, and the Hyrannian dessert.
- In the towns of Ghost Town ]I[, there are a few survivors that give helpful
- advise. This will help you overall and in tracking down the Pioneers of
- Destruction. You may also buy men for your army and turns to play longer. If you
- have ten or less turns, you can quit and save in a town; you will be totally
- safe, but that doesn't assure safety of you numerous camps.
-
- Good luck in your heoric quest and enjoy playing Ghost Town ]I[: The Final Draw.
