Press Z. The Corporations are raiding the Desert Eagle Bar and Grill.
Just Give Up, or fight, and your problems are solved.

I got one change that would be good:

Molotovs. Make it possible to start fires and burn down a location WITHOUT having to get in a fight. Also, make it possible to start fires in adjacent tiles, you're supposed to fling molotovs away from yourself, not at your own feet! As they are, molotovs are worse than useless, and I doubt anyone uses them in serious gameplaying.

Or you could kill the CCS, which will net juice for all your sleepers.

Too bad you can't get to the outskirts of town without them.

Speaking of which, wonder how your members get back to town once they abandon their vehicles while being chased by agents?

Also, what happens to LCS who stay at the Bunker? Wonder how they get to town...

"I wanna see each and every single one of those hippie commies with bullets in their brains before noon!"


Too bad for him you don't have any hippies. 

Actually, the moral of the story is that your founder needs a Child Prodegy (or even a Child Moron would do) that can take over upon founder death.

Wouldn't really have helped. Most of my sleepers were dead of old age long before my founder. (judges and scientists and stuff are usually much older than your 24 year old founder)

Martial Arts is cool, but the only problem is that each hit is low damage, so it doesn't do very much against the stronger armors.
Actually, i tried using nothing but martial arts for the whole LCS. Finishing the game was not a problem. It's even easier with all swords. And Ninjas DO like katanas...

Uwagh. I just tried to perform a Classic, Nightmare, run. Conditions: No killing anyone, and I'm only allowed to influence the issues through sleepers. So, I put 1 sleeper in each location, the strongest type of each sleeper I could find. Except the courthouse, which got 1 hanghing judge and 1 lawyer.
So, disband once they're all 100% effectiveness, with everyone promoting liberalism, and off we go!
... yes, yes, 2020 and we're almost there!

Oops. Someone died of old age. Nevermind.
Er... someone else died too.
Er...
Uh oh... so many sleepers died that the slider is moving away from elite liberalism. A little.
Am I going to make it?
...
My founder just died of old age. Game OVER!!!
Curses. Morale of the story: More sleepers.

Yeah, but you were much more daring in the first siege when you had uninjured front liners, then once they got injured you sort of wussed out and relied on the traps 100%. Would have been more exciting if you just switched out your neardeath guy and then charged bravely into battle. Though I did find it a learning experience that the AI eventually learns how to explore deeper into your base. I thought they would just stay near the front entrance FOREVER, based on how they camped there in my games...

Bunker Gear is like all-around tissue paper or something. hmm. Though it apparently DOES contain Kevlar, according to the wiki. So maybe it's better than I thought. Anyhow, it doesn't even protect that well from flamethrowers?

Ha. I originally thought armor could get [D]irty and ullet-holes.
