Why? If you play a pulp western game, there should be hungry wolves, snakes and bears behind every second corner. No need to hide them.

I mean
preambel: riding through the town
scene 1: duel with 6 black hats (needless to say - hero wins),
interim: riding through the desert
scene 2: ambush of 6 hungry kojotes (of course hero kills them),
interim: riding to the ranch
scene 3: final shootout on the evil villains ranch (hero wins again killing 6 black hats, 1 bear hiding behind the corner plus 1 evil villain - but unfortunately hero receives a small wound from the evil villains Colt .45 Peacemaker MkIV/D7A superspecial - just to have a use for all the carefully researched gun data)
scene 4: rescue of the farmers daughter (of course she falls in love with hero)
interim: riding with girl into the sunset
