THE MATCH---GUN FOR HIRE---SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

Your received a wire requesting your services to clean up a little town known as Sand, New Mexico.  A man called “Saber” has a gang that has buffaloed the town.  To assist you, you hire a bunch of less capable “guns for hire”. Look around you.  The people you see, those are the gunfighters you hired. For $2500 you would bring justice for the townspeople of Sands, New Mexico.

You and your gang are riding through a gully towards Sands.  To get through it appears you must clean a safe passage.  Moving from rock to rock you try your best.  (Stage One).

You do make it through the small passage and you’re moving on towards Sands.  While riding your horse you get ambushed by Saber and his merciless gang of outlaws.  The only thing you and your gang of hired gunfighters can do is try to fight your way out.  Well, you do get on down the trail with just minor injuries.  (Stage Two). 

That evening as you are settling down for a supper of beans and hardtack, Saber catches up with you and darn, you’ve got to fight some more.   (Stage Three).

The next morning you finally arrive at Sand.  You’re headed to the hotel.  Somehow Saber and a few of his gang has shown up at the hotel. You see them through the window. Standing against the wall, you plan to make an all out effort to end Saber’s miserable life.  He got away.  (Stage Four).

Saber’s debt to society will hopefully be paid at the Sand Saloon.  You see him through the saloon doors dranking and thanking.  You drop your saddlebags in the street and attack through the doorway before rushing inside to make sure Saber is sent to hell.  (Stage Five).
