Driller has gone and messed with the wrong cowboy this time. The Wrangler’s the first in a series of new, exclusive sidekicks, and he’s hell bent on revenge. Recruit him now by competing in Cattle Battles and Posse Events, set him and his shotgun loose on Driller’s Outlaws and watch them run scared!

The Wrangler’s a fast mover who rides on horseback toting a sawed-off shotgun. He can clear out any outlaw infested camp in record time. His shotgun is most effective for short range strikes, making him well suited to clearing out any enemy camps. The Wrangler is, simply put, bad to the bone and faster than a bat outta hell.

What else is new:
- New and improved Frontier Times, allows dynamic updates so we can keep y’all updated on the latest news from the frontier.

Other improvements:
- Improvements to Posse, Events and Fort - now easier to understand!

Legendary Gatling Gunner

With some serious bug squishing firepower under the hood, it’s only fitting that the Legendary Gatling Gunner choose update 1.4 to make his grand entrance.
Folks on the frontier say this new and improved Gatling Gunner ain’t nothin’ to be messed with - Driller’s goons are already running scared! When the Frontier Times caught up with him, we found a young and hyperactive chap excited about the sheer power of his large weapon. In fact, the only quote we could get outta him was “WHERE’S MY BULLETS? RATATATATATAAAH!”

So let’s take a looksee at what else is new in Update 1.4:
* Cattle Battle replaces the Daily Event - do as many as you can!
* Not only that, but we’ve added nicer graphics for the event
* Get notified when the Cattle Battle event is completed!
* Posse bugs are FIXED! No gettin’ booted unless you’ve been really naughty
* Chat improvements - get notified whenever a Posse member says or does something
* Posse contribution points screen is improved - now you can see contributions from all of your posse members!
* Sally is no longer naughty. She ain’t gonna throw TNT when the battle’s over

Other bug fixes:
* Railroads ain’t gonna crush diamond sacks on the map no more
* All difficulty indicators reset at the start of a new event

We got a brand spankin’ new update here, and it’s hotter than a cactus in a steamin’ sauna! Rumors of the appearance of a new, shady lookin' figure across the frontier proved true this update, with the arrival of the Legendary Gunslinger.

Truth be told, the Legendary Gunslinger makes his Notorious counterpart look like a cityslicker. He's able to deal more damage and shake off more punches than a bucking bronco, and still only costs 1 Battle Point to deploy!

In spite of all the commotion caused by his arrival, folks still got some actual work done around town:

As y’all can imagine all good things must come to an end and in this update we’ve squished the Guard Tower bug and put all upgrade times BACK TO NORMAL! More info about this in the FAQ: Settings > Help > Guard Tower Bug!

- The Newspaper and the Mailbox views scroll just nicely now
- A Mystery Card entry was added to the battle rewards pop-up
