Strategy Map

Your units can perform Assignments. Assignments sometimes lead to tactical missions.

 

More assignments are unlocked as you progress in the game.

 

Some assignments require you to have Fear or Respect in the district where you want to do that assignment.

 

Menace assignment & mission will lead to enemy faction losing the ownership of a location. You need Fear before you can perform this.

 

Coerce Ownership assignment & mission will bring the location under your ownership. It requires you to have respect in the district you want to perform that.

 

Owning locations will unlock you new features and items. Unlocking even more stuff requires you to raise your location level.

 

Enemy or neutral location’s level dictates how heavily it is defended.

 

Units will rest and heal automatically, but you can heal them faster with heal assignments. Wounded units cannot perform any other assignment.

 

Heat influences what the police does and can do. Some of your locations reduce heat every day.

 

If your unit has a Heat trait – it will create extra heat in both strategy map and tactical missions it participates.

 

If you have a situation where multiple assignments would lead to tactical missions – the least meaningful one(s) will go to auto-resolve. There are many factors in play which one will be auto resolved, but in general least important missions and locations you’ve been to often are more likely to be chosen.

 

If AI attacks a location that you’re extorting – you lose respect in that district. But for a short period of time, you will get retaliate bonus (extra respect) if you attack the same enemy who attacked ‘your’ civilians.

 

 

Tactical Missions

Each unit apart from civilians have Zone Of Control. Moving within or away from Zone Of Control triggers a free attack.

 

Status effects remove Zone Of Control. Status effects are earned with moves like a kick in the nuts.

 

Each unit has 2 action points.

 

Most skills can be combined with movement.

 

Flanking bonus is earned for attacks from behind. That’s why the unit movement comes with a choice of orientation.

 

Heat brings police force every time a threshold is crossed.

 

More loud and violent actions bring more heat. Knockouts and kills bring also additional heat.

 

If you have a lot of Heat in the strategy layer, you will start the mission with pre accumulated heat that grows faster. In the worst possible case you start with some gained Heat.

 

When the police arrives – the game reveals where your units have dropped items. Leaving them behind will increase the heat a lot.

 

Air gun is a strange gun because it doesn’t trigger gunfight. Bottles and ashtrays are also good ranged weapons to use in a brawl.

 

Getting units arrested in police raid is a smaller thing than not destroying the account books.
