The year is 1879, but the history is not our own. The guns of the Civil War are silent in a tense cease-fire.

Powerful Rail Barons strive to complete a transcontinental railroad, and the Great Rail Wars exact a bloody toll in the Union, the Confederacy, the Sioux Nation, the Mormon state of Deseret, and the Independent Commonwealth of California.

And if they fight hard enough, they might just discover the identity of the mysterious Reckoners some say are behind it all.
