What is Western Legends

Historic characters from the American Wild West face off and write new legends across the face of history! Gather your gun, your mount, and your grit as you forge your path into the history books.

Western Legends is an open-world sandbox tabletop adventure for 2-6 players set in the American Wild West. Players assume the roles of historical figures of the era, earning their legendary status in a variety of ways: gamble, drive cattle, prospect for gold, rob the bank, fight bandits, pursue stories, become an outlaw, keep the peace. The possibilities are darn near endless.

Each player's turn starts with drawing poker cards and/or gaining cash. Then they choose three actions. Possible actions include: move on the map (how far depends on whether they have a mount), doing a location-specific action (such as mine for gold if they are at a gold mine, gamble if they're in a saloon, etc.), fight other players at the same location (either duel them, rob them, or arrest them if they're wanted), play poker cards that have action abilities, etc. Legendary Points (LPs) are earned based on the outcomes of many of these actions, and the winner is whoever has the most LPs at the end of the game.

Very funny game! one play and still to discover a lot of things and strategies, but nice capacity of being malicious while trying to make your plans. Maybe seems like it is easier to sum points with bad guys.

Me lo pasé mejor de lo esperado. No me importaría volverlo a jugar si se da la ocasión y meterle alguna expansioncilla.

Juego temático en el que los jugadores encarnan personajes del oeste americano y pueden optar por estar dentro o fuera de la ley... Las acciones que puedes realizar dependen de en qué "bando" estés.. así como las recompensas. Hay además formas de pasar a uno u otro bando. Los forajidos, pueden sumar puntos de legenda en cada turno, mientras que los alguaciles, según como de desempeñen pueden ir ganando PLs durante el juego y además, sumar una buena cantidad al final de la partida. Puedes robar, arrestar, hacer duelos, robar el banco, extraer oro de la mina, cambiar oro por dinero, ir a gastar

Very good SANDBOX western game, i really like the follow up this game makes to spur, very fun and the use of cards it´s impresive, good and short enough to be a masterpiece. Thank Kickstarter! now i want the mine! :D

The game is good and fun but the BIG downtime makes it less appealing to play, even if players knew what to do, some turns still took way too long while other players turn could be over in a few seconds, but overall the looong turns make the game feel longer than it is (although it is kinda long anyway). Wish there was something to be done for the downtime issue (we played a 4P match).
