Alt Civil War
Movies, or westerns by and large, which either explicitly hit the same sort of beats for my Alt WWI / WW2 type of often "not really feasible but not entirely pushing the scopes feasibility or reality" with wunder weapons (or steampunk type tech in this case). Not entirely "westerns" or even entirely Civil War but within that sort of period. Some overlap with "western horror"
