City Of Gangsters

Grow a powerful crew and keep your rivals under your thumb. Because after 1933, it will be all over, alcohol will be legal again. Eliminate competition and rule the city. Work your way into this network, and the world will be yours. But think beyond making a quick buck or two. But you only have a few years to make your mark on history, to build the largest, most profitable crime syndicate, take over your competition, and rule the entire city. You’re a new arrival in the city at the dawn of Prohibition, with ambitions of striking it big. With congressional action, a huge segment of the national economy becomes illegal overnight: bars and saloons are ordered to close, distilleries and breweries go quiet, distributors shut down. But most importantly, keep the money flowing. The year is 1920, the start of Prohibition in the USA. Your outfit’s ambitions are only limited by the number of people working for you. But a new era is dawning: a gilded age for smugglers, black markets, illegal manufacture, and organized crime. This is where you come in. Soon you’ll be supplying entire neighborhoods, and opening your own swinging speakeasies. On the black market, social currency matters as much as the greenback. Territory under your control will provide a safety net, an income base, and a wealth of opportunities for further growth and expansion. You’ve grabbed the opportunity by the horns, and the city is yours for the taking. Smuggle goods from out of town and bribe the police to look the other way. Start a crime syndicate from nothing, and grow it into a well-oiled money machine. You gotta be thinking bigger. You gotta be thinking ahead. Learn new techniques to make expensive drinks, or smuggle imported booze to fuel your growing operation. Much bigger. Get started in the booze biz by hocking some homemade hooch. And doing business fair and square, well, everybody knows that’s not where the real money is. Whether you send your people to harass someone, or to help them, you can be sure they’ll remember it down the line. As your outfit grows, convince locals that your goods and theirs will be looked after. Manage production chains and resource distribution. Build speakeasies and illegal distilleries. Keep them paid, armed, and organized, and who knows how far and how fast you’ll rise. But proceed carefully, because everyone is always observing what you’re doing, and family members stick up for each other. Start your own stills, and find raw materials to supply them. So work your connections to find profitable new friends, and get people who owe you favors to put in a good word. You will need plenty of hands to open new fronts, do delivery runs, and protect your product from envious rivals. With cops and feds sniffing around, trust is everything and personal introductions are worth their weight in gold. Behind many of the city’s facades, people are building makeshift distilleries, secret loading docks, nighttime speakeasies.
