Go West!

Players act as businessmen who profit from wagon trains migrating west across a map of North America divided into vertical regions from the East Coast to California. Each turn, players manage resources, bid for rights or services, and position their agents to intercept moving wagon trains and extract income from travel, trade, and settlement opportunities. The game emphasizes route planning, timing of actions as wagons advance, and competition for limited regional advantages while adapting to shifting movement and economic patterns.

    You simply set yourself up for scoring, and hope the other person does it for you. Not something I enjoy. See my review for more details...
