You are a person in the old west. You can either side with the law or side with one of the many gangs. Who knows you might even be a western legend. Only time can tell.
Gangs/Lawmen
Banditos - Mexican bandits that mainly reside in the coast of Mexico. They are only powerful in numbers.
Pike's Gang - Bunch of escaped convicts that only reside in the Grand Canyon or what it's called now, Pike's Land.
Mexican Army - Mexican military that currently run Mexico but are hated now because of their cruelness.
Rebels - A bunch of Mexican townfolk who wish to bring down the army.
Lawmen - The law of the American west. If you are caught doing a crime they will hunt you down by any means necessary.
Honor
Honor is basically like karma. It determines how good you are or how evil you are. you can gain higher honor by helping people, killing an official in a gang hideout, and capturing wanted men. You can gain lower honor by killing, robbing, and helping gangs.
Wanted Level
If you commit a crime and don't kill a witness before he/she calls the sheriff then you recieve a wanted level. It goes from one, meaning lawmen aren't really searching for you that much to five, meaning lawmen AND people are on high alert for you and you'll be hunted by bounty hunters. You can get rid of wanted levels by paying an official, taking down wanted posters, or killing witnesses.

You breathe heavily, looking for someone to rob. You then hear hoofprints on the dust. You look to the left and see a woman and a man riding horses together. They look wealthy.
You aim carefully and take the shot. The rope falls down and you shoot 2 of the gang members. You look around and then step in the cave. You tell the woman to go outside the cave.
When you reach the man he hugs his wife then turns to you. "Thank you stranger. Here is you're pay. I also know a man named Marshall who works with the lawmen at the town of Tuscaninni. He might be able to find you some work if you're up for it."
Level Up!
Since you leveled up you get to choose a perk. Here are two.
Gunslinger - You are more deadly with a gun. You can shoot faster and guns do more damage.
Silent Running - When you run you're steps won't be heard making it easier for sneak attacks.

I hop behind someplace to hide and jump out wielding my shotgun when they get close.
When you reach Tuscaninni you are approached by a man. when he gets closer you notice he is drunk. He then challeges you to a showdown in the middle of town.

You jump out, aiming you're shotgun at them. The man says "What in the..." You stop him saying "Give me you're money." The man pulls out a gun and you shoot him and the woman. You take 50$ and leave.
"Ha. I'm the best gun in teh west. I shoot you dead before you even blink." He then walks a few feet away from you. He says "When that bell rings, we draw. Got that?"
