The year is 1929. The Great Depression has left an abundance of poor and desperate people, willing to turn to crime for a quick buck and a place to sleep. And now more than ever, a life of crime has become especially profitable since alcohol is selling at one hell of a premium due to probation. Nowhere is that moar apparent than Cappulet city, a port town along Lake Michigan. It was always a scum hole filled with ruthless thugs and crooked politicians, but now it's being pushed to its limits. The town, somehow, has managed to become incredibly rich of of all the crime, largely due to the mayor having a part in it. Of course this blessing has become a curse and the town is now a prime target for more organized crime. That's were you come in as the leader of one of the local gangs. Your job is to make your gang the richest and most powerful of them all wile avoiding being taken out by one of the other gangs, or getting shot up by what's left of the police. Good luck.
