If the "old west" is your thing this new MMO from Three Rings will give you plenty of reasons to yee-haw and have a good time! Visually, the characters in the game are somewhat reminiscent of recent anime characters like those found in the Cowboy Bebop series, but overall the game's backgrounds and themes look to be consistent with those found in other strategy-focused MMOs.

Being that the game is being billed as both turn based and real time strategy, players will get the best of both worlds. From the deep concentration necessary to plan an effective long term strategy, to the heated, fast-paced, reflexive instincts needed for effective real time combat this game covers both sides. 

In line with the massively multiplayer aspect of the game there is a focus on deep customizability. When dealing with Avatars, outfits and style of play, the player is given enough freedom to make his own reality. As a character ensconced in the world of the old west, Cowboys and Cowgirls must combine tactical strategy with quickness in order to avoid Buffalo stampedes, speeding trains and angry villains; all the while crossing the frontier in search of new territories to conquer.
