Seems to be a basic problem with Old West games where there are factions or "posses" - it ends up a sordid free for all and nothing like what might have been in a 'real' world.  I think the solution is some careful scenario design with restrictions on the players and nasty negatives for targeting the wrong group. But wargamers being warmers you might still have challenges.  The right rules still haven't been written to sort this out - not that I know of any way.

But I agree, very nice buildings - though I wonder why the church so much a different color than all the other buildings.  Do like that you did a train robbery game.

Yeah these guys don't really act as you would expect. There is a mixed of very experienced wargamers and part timers. Its hard to write something that the part timers can understand without the others exploiting it!

The Church I repainted pink after watching a movie (pretty sure it was Appaloosa), as it had a pink church in it

The train is a "Fast Lane" toy train. There is a few threads on this site in the Wild West and Trains forums which will help locate them.
