[quote=XecutionerRex] I'm not going to jump the gun and cash in my interest, but I have a question:Is slavery going to be fairly active in this, an occasional thing, or will there be next to none at all? I don't really remember where slavery was in these times and regions of America's history. Even after slavery was abolished in the North blacks were still illegally captured and brought South, so I think it could make for some very interesting plot points. [/quote] Slavery was extremely rare in the New Mexico Territory- less than a hundred slaves in the entire territory. I don't think it'll come up that much, especially if this is set after the Civil War like most Westerns.
