Capitalism, Hey!: WILD CITY

[ Everything fades to black...and you awaken in a run-down one-room shack, with the distinct feeling that the people around you are your family, if you didn't already have such a bond with them.

You're wearing raggedy versions of your uniform, and a newspaper informs you that you are currently in %COUNTRYNAME%, in the year %CONTEMPORARY%. The newspaper is otherwise actually fairly unhelpful, aside from something detailing a recent high-profile murder having been solved: despite confusion on the part of the authorities conducting the initial investigation, it turns out the victim had been tragically murdered via gun in the knife.

What do you do? ]

I am doing what I can, but we need a real surgeon!

Then we'll threaten one! We just need a plan!

Fuck, I screwed up. I should never have suggested this!

First, we find a doctor. A surgeon. We can run a racket on him to make him save them.

And then—then...hell. Should we try to leave town? Try to start over where the entire police force isn't out for us?

The town's gonna run us out anyway, our only other option is to try and turn them against the cops and the landlords.

This is industrial revolution stuff, right? Then start! A goddamned! Union!

... We could try...but you should be aware of the risk of the town turning on us. And we have Plover and Coyote to care for.

Encouraging them to take up arms against the police and the mine which is clearly underpaying us may have a chance at working though. But only chance. Remember this town isn't real. These police aren't real. Our teammates are.

... I think we should leave town and get them treatment. If we are doing better in the next round, we can try to come back to unionize this town then, but only once we're safe.

Acquire a new hideout, pay our budget, buy a luxury. Screw taxes.

Good plan. We're going to do it, okay. We'll get out of this.

Let's just go to an abandoned farm and raise our own food.
