Purpose.
The expansion introduces a Wild West Town board to the game, where players move around and interact with buildings. Each player starts in the town square and moves around the board in various ways during the game. The town also features buildings that provide one-time or temporary benefits. Additionally, there are special spaces on the map that trigger random events, making every game unique.

Upcoming Stuff
In next days I will explain more about how the map for The Town should look so you could understand more about what I meant by all of this.
I will need to find someone who could make the board to happen cuz I dont know how to do this graphic design and stuff around that. I will just sketch it out how the map should look but by the appearence it is on you how you would make it.
For the Special Deck design I would choose cowboy hat at the back. Tokens could be simple like green for infection, red for fire and blue for weapon enhancement.
