Some people consider me to be merciful person, and I think under correct condition, that is accurate statement. So let me to be outlining correct condition for you, mena drug: you stay west of 3, and I am being merciful. Understand?

Given yous bohunks promise to stay east of 2 we can live with this. Don't even think about breaking this agreement though fellas. If there's anything we hate its the kinda fellas that don't know hows to keep a deal.

@ryaz, yes, you can bribe the police to multiple levels in a single turn, you just can't go higher than Level 10.

Well, 13/14 orders, not bad at all. Speed is of the essence as previously stated. I apologize to whoever missed the shortened opportunity, but I'm beginning an update now.

My guess on how much money I have comes from adding the output of the Press and the last prostitute in there.

Orders:

Spoiler :

If the money is correct:
Pay 2 Bribes to the Police.
Send 2 Thugs to (8,6) to take control of that place.
Keep the girls at the Brothel. Make sure that they are treated well.
Have the Thugs in (8,7) watch out for potential problems around the Counterfeit Press.
If the money isn't correct:
Pay 1 Bribe to the Police.
Send 2 Thugs to (8,6) to take control of that place.
Hire 1 Thug.
Keep the girls at the Brothel. Make sure that they are treated well.

[EQandcivfanatic]

@crezth: I thought that the update and the rules alone would be enough warning, but you may want to rethink your actions.

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

@Shadowbound: If Legitimate Businessmen is directed towards any actual legit NPCs, the answer is always no. This is a straight up board game in all respects. If it's not provided for in the rules, it (99% of the time) can't be done.

 

[Shadowbound]

OOC: By Legitimate Businessmen, I mean the other players. It's a hefty investment to set up a distillery and enough speakeasies to make it profitable, but less capital is needed for a single player to set up a distillery and sell under the black market price, if there's other players willing to buy.

 

[Kentharu]

I thought prostitutes produced twice as much in Brothels? Shouldn't I be making 140?

You are, anything you may have seen on the front page more than one minute ago was your imagination.

"So apparently the McGowan family HQ is completely abandoned. Not a trace of those bastards anywhere. Needless to say, it makes the streets a lot safer for our guys."

Patrick nodded slowly, showing his satisfaction at this new development, "Well then, what is it you propose we do? We got those new comers in district one-one, right?"

His advisor nodded, "Yes sir, but they're new in town. I wouldn't expect them to pull anything rash. All we need is a couple of new goons and some more districts to extort. We'll be able to start really pumping in the cash."

"Sounds good to me. You just better hope this doesn't turn into disaster. Send a hoe or two down to 1,2 for extra protection."

Orders:

Spoiler :

Buy Two thugs and two Prostitutes.
Buy two levels of police bribery.
Move One Thug/One Prostitute to 1,4 One Thug/One Prostitute to 2,4, and one Prostitute down to 1,2.
Bank the rest

Orders changed, I guess. I'm not sure what I keep missing.
