Since I saw a School Wars forum, I thought I'll do something similar.

I'll draw a map soon, but here's the basic layout of the map.

There's an small industrial area in the Southwest, its very small. There's large open areas around the industrial area.

To the Northwest is the suburbs, which are HUGE. The make up about 40% of the map. They lead right into the "lower" areas of the city, mainly low rent apartments and small business stores. The deeper we get into the city, the more expensive it becomes. So, in near the center, we got huge skyscrapers and apartment buildings, hotels, among other things.

City Hall is in the center of the map.

So, the game here is that you start a faction/gang/group/etc. and basically do what you want to do with that group in this city. Help the poor, be a terroist, become rich, etc.

This game continues until I feel like it. Also, I can throw in fastballs and other huge events into the city. Other than that, how the city grows, or falls, is up to participants.

Finally, the city is called Syndicate City and is located in the fictional North American country of Eastland.

So, anyone in?

You know I'm in.

I'll take the Industrial part, since it sounds to be the smallest. We live on Paper Street...

Lol, I knew immediatly that you'll be here =P

Like the other thread, you're going to have to desribe your group a bit.

Also, for anyone else who jumps in, don't dare say "the entire city" or "the entire suburbs". :D

The Paper Street Complex has a bustling look to it. A Geodesic Dome filled with plants serves as a greenhouse to the Apartment Complex surrounding it. The 375 workers of the Greenhouse sleep there, and they sell their crops at market value less enough to make it competitive.

They have recently been able to buy another, identically-sized property across the way, to reproduce the Collective on the East side of the Paper street. It is looking for workers, people who are trained in IT, Agriculture, Ex-Combat Military (Security), Engineers, Scientists, and Maintenance Personnel. They often hire students to make sure each worker can replicate his results in case of an accident. These apprenticeships make it very popular with the small communities in this Industrial Area.

These two main complexes will soon be joined by a third and fourth, as soon as planning grants from the city are approved. This project provides food, work and community to what should be the worst part of the city to live in, and 2 more can only quadruple what the Full-capacity Dome is running at.

As well, tourists love it, and spend money in an area other cities wish to cover up. The man who started the business was a young man, now 28, and had begun with a dream of a row of Greenhouses, and changed the design to make it interesting.

The Companies name is the Lighting Wolf Collective. A small group of communist try to apply all the time, but they are known to not be people persons, and making the workplace hostile through imagined plots. In fact, however, a lot of self-proclaimed anarchists are 'working' there, though they pay no taxes directly, the company makes up for it to the government to make sure tax time doesn't bother them.

With such green-production, the implementation of Windmills around the city, owned by LWC, will provide regular electricity to the complexes, while solar panels provide power to massive batteries for peak-hour usage.

The remaking of the City to look like bubble wrap is something of a joke, but recently, the millionaire founder of the collective has bought an area for a building only he really knows the meaning of.

As Governor of the State, I have to say, I'm behind the LWC and applauded them on their "green" business.:D
