Urban Warfare: New York City (Map Game)

Welcome to Urban Warfare: New York City!

Due to an unknown reason, cities around the world have fallen into complete anarchy. This map game will focus on New York City, which is struggling between three powers, the United States of America, the Free Business Association and the Free City of Brooklyn.

You can control one of the districts in the city. You, as your district, can lead your alliance towards victory, or switch sides and betray your friends. It's all up to you.

Remember, teamwork is crucial. Coordinate attacks and operations with your allies. This is NOT a free-for-all.

United States of America
(Blue on map)

After the fall of major cities in USA, the government aims to take back those cities, most importantly New York. They won't stop and won't rest until the whole of NYC falls back into America's hands. Their superior army technology and help from the FBI allows them clear vision of the battlefield, but they are limited in their army size as other cities also require help.

+ Decreased riot chance (-5%)

+ Each player can sabotage ONE district in ONE turn, causing an increased riot chance (+5%) (stacks)

- The army limit of the entire team is 300,000

Free Business Association
A bunch of businessmen from large, global corporations who fear that the takeover of NYC by USA will cause an economical crisis decided to form a strong, corporate power who aims to "liberate" major cities around the world one by one. However, they are ruthless and are extreme ultra-capitalists. They don't do the dirty work on their own. A lot of NYC citizens are unhappy with the FBA and their districts have increased unrest.

+ Can hire up to 5000 mercs in ONE turn, each player can only have 15000 mercs at max

- Increased riot chance (+20%)

Free City of Brooklyn
Freedom fighters from Brooklyn are were unsatisfied with USA and rich corporations find anarchy a golden chance to make NYC independent. They despise the USA and believe that said country is inable to solve any basic problem. They also hate the FBA, thinking them as rich asshats who live in their own box. They aim to take over New York by force, and will try their best to fight. A lot of citizens in other districts support this movement, which is an advantage. However, their equipment and weapons are not so effective compared to USA and FBA.

+ Decreased revolt risk

+ 100% chance of a riot supporting them if the riot borders their districts

- Decreased winning chance (-20%)

Riots
Riots have a base chance of 10% to spawn each turn. The more you recruit in a turn, the higher chance for a riot to spawn. If you recruit half of your district's population, the riot spawn chance reaches 100%.

Battles
You can command a certain no. troops to invade/protect districts. If you invade a district or other teams invade yours, a battle will occur. The outcome of the battle and the number of casualties is dependent on the number of your troops and enemy troops.

The chance of you winning is calculated by this formula:

{['Your number of troops/'(Your no. of troops+Enemy no. of troops)]}*100%

Note: If your district is FCB-controlled, 20% will be taken from the winning chance

For example, if you have 5000 troops invading a district which has 2500 troops in it, the chance of you winning is 66%.

When a battle finishes, you will have casualties. Casualties are calculated by this formula:

(Enemy no. of troops/5)*(1-Winning chance)

If you lose a battle, your casualties will be x1.25.

Levels
Each district's starting troops are defined by their color on the map.

Level 1 - 10,000

Level 2 - 20,000

Level 3 - 30,000

Level 4 - 40,000

Unification between districts
If your district is at least 2 levels higher than an ally district, you can integrate it into your district. The integration process will take 2 turns.

Bridges
There are a lot of bridges on the map. You can cross bridges which haven't been damaged(blown up on map). You can also blow up bridges, which will render army movement across the bridge nearly impossible. However, you cannot cross a blown-up bridge even if you are the one who blew it up. Keep this in mind as this may be annoying in the future.

Brooklyn Heights
As the Brooklyn Height's military realize that enemies are over the bridge, The Mayor and Head of State recruits about 15.000 Troops to protect against foreign military operations against their district. In the mean time, The Mayor of Brooklyn Heights, DeShawn Harris, meets with the Respected Prime Minister of Red Hook Jayles Noods to plan the Invasion and Occupation of Island Liberty. Meanwhile the Police Blocks the Bridge to Battery Park with special force's vehicles (BHSF). Rumors say that there are possible Millitary Operations against the District of Williamsburg, which may get invaded soon by Brooklyn's Forces. It will get Occupied and Annexed both by Brooklyn Heights (Southwestern part) and Bushwick (The Rest of the District) Right now their focus is to defeat their first enemy district. Thus gaining some power.

During these important meetings the First ever Destroyer (DD-15 Harris) was build and deployed in the Port of Brooklyn today, and is now ready for battle. The DD-15 Harris is going to participate to its first military drill with the fleet of Red Hook. Thus planning a safe invasion of Island Liberty, in order to preserve the Statue of Liberty.

Flatlands
As times get rough in the city of New York city, We recruit about 16.000 extra troops, 10,000 of which go and capture most of Arverne. We push further into the state, trying to force them into surrender. The other 6.000 troops go to Ozone Park fighting in the battle along side the East New York's 9.000 mass army. Our main target is Arverne and Ozone Park. We ask Borough. Seeing as Brooklyn Heights is doing well we send about 2,000 troops to Brooklyn Heights to fight along side them. We also send many spies and people to bomb railways in Arverne and Ozone Park. Terrorist attacks are planned with Red Hook and Brooklyn Heights about possibly destroying entire regions.

Greenwich
Greenwich starts recruiting troops with around 20000 so far. They did not do anything yet, so they are on a full defence operation for now and that way the riots will be supressed since we have treated the civilians as workforces very harshly. They began patrolling the Williamsburg Bridge and may bomb it if Williamsburg surrenders to the other faction, currently there are no plans to invade anyone yet and they have no interest on offences and is subject to defence only (unless a district attacks it), so there is no chance we would attack for the first few weeks.

The transports and destroyers are being built to defend their coastlines, one patrolling on one side and the other in another side, this will slow down the enemy transports from reaching Manhattan (apart from the north where there are enemies)

Red Hook
Red Hook has plans for the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel to be taken over by Red Hook. An underground tunnel using the Brooklyn-Battery Bridge to connect to Governors Island is considered, and funds are put into the tunnel. Meanwhile, Red Hook recruits 35,000 people into their military, and the Prime Minister, Jayles Noods, meets with DeShawn Harris, Prime Minister of Brooklyn Heights, to discuss an invasion of Liberty Island. Noods talks with Harris, suggesting that since they are the closest to Liberty Island, Brooklyn Heights forces could meet with Red Hookian forces on Governors Island to invade it using navy.

Harris considers. Meanwhile, a navy program is set up, such as destroyers and battlecruisers. From their governmental budget, the New York-class battleship is revived, and one battleship is constructed and currently in the upgrading state. The Red Hookian forces do not want to harm Lady Liberty, as they see her as an important figure and want to preserve the statue and protect her. Red Hook awaits an response from Brooklyn Heights on this decision.

The military now has 55,000 men in the military.

Hell's Kitchen
Hell's Kitchen begins recruitment of 30,000 Troops. People come in droves to defend their district as the strong sense of community in hell's kitchen dictates.

Hell's Kitchen meets with greenwitch to discuss defense plans. Hells kitchen brings up offensive ideas as well, but they know they need help from greenwitch or a more powerful ally to successfully carry out an invasion.

Hell's Kitchen waits for a response from greenwitch on these ideas.

Hell's Kitchen also starts a small navy program to defend its coast.

Murray Hill
Murray Hill trains it's army for war and starts to mobilize for war anytime. It makes secret plans which the others don't know about.

It teams up with other states under US protection for meetings and secret plans. The only key for USA to unite New York once again, is that they work together. It sabotages Liberty Island with Jamaica.

And it also attacks the Bronx.

Peasent Plains
Peasent plains starts building Numerous Ships to have a Maximal effect on sea with Minimal manpower. A test of these starts in the first Thursday of the war, with a Small Yacht, renamed to the USS Clinton. It has Four machine guns and an RPG in the front, with Six men manning it. The ship is an Archetype for other armed Yachts which are planned to Harrass shores and secure infantry transports. They order the US ships around Long Island to come and Form a Blocade around Brooklyn, Bronx and Manhattan. They also Command to destroy any movement of supply ships. They also start Annexing Old place, and make turrets all over its Bridge.

Borough Park
Borough Park decides to help the Flatlands against their enemies, and Borough Park sends 10k military to Arvene and 6k to Ozone Park. In the meantime, Borough Park sets up defense lines in case of an attack coming from the USA or the FBA. The people of Borough Park are encouraged to work to help with supplies and food so that no one will suffer.

Jamaica
Jamaica begins to integrate Arvene into Jamaica. To respond to the invasion of eastern Arvene, Jamaica recruits 10k soldiers to have 50,000 in total, and sends 40,000 of them to Arvene. Since Arvene already has 20,000 default soldiers, the invaders are pushed back easily because the force of the USA is 60,000 and the force of Brooklyn is 20,000. Brooklyn is pushed back into Fort Tilden and Bergen Beach.

Upper West Side
Upper West Side (UWS) is very worries about possible riots. Due to this the previous plans of recruiting 15k soldiers into the military is cut by 66% and instead 5k soldiers are recruited. To make up for this cut, the UWS purchases 5k mercenaries to fight. 35k soldiers are sent to the northern districts of the FBA and split into 3 groups. One of group of 10k soldiers are sent to patrol the border of Bronx River. Another group 5k are sent to patrol the border of East Bronx. These two groups are ordered to send all of their soldiers to assist any attack on the northern districts of the FBA. The last group of 20k is sent to the border of Hudson Hill and they create a staging area for an attack on Hudson Hill. When Hunts point was attacked, all 15k deployed soldiers assist the defenders. The remaining 10k soldiers in UWS are ordered to patrol the district to stop any armed rebellions.

Midtown East
Due to anticapitalistic elements within Midtown East, a parliament consisting of 5 seats is created, with each "neighborhood" being given 1 seat. The military is sent to Rikers Island, in an attempt to occupy the district. The battle is won with (relative) ease, and the district falls to the FBA after the battle results in a loss of ~50 casualties for the Midtown armies. The district is then occupied and hence now a member of the FBA. Also, Midtown recruits another 20,000 "Homefront" forces, to put a cap on military (unless Rikers is integrated).

Bronx River
Bronx River recruits 20,000 troops, totaling the military has now 50,000 soldiers. Begins to integrate Hudson Hill into Bronx River. Bronx River invades Hunts Point with 30,000 soldiers.

Turn 2




Events

 * Liberty Island, which holds the famous Statue of Liberty, has ironically fallen into the hands of the ruthless and oppressive Order of the New Knights (ONK). They are deadly and plan to destroy New York completely using bombings and other terrorist attacks. They are occupying Liberty Island and using it as a safe haven. They have electrical fences, mobile turrets, RPGs and even mines installed on the island. Your team has to make a choice:
 * Invade Liberty Island by force. Your team will probably suffer heavy casualties as against the ONK, your team will have +50% casuaties in battles. However, if you successfully take over Liberty Island, it will become a level 4 district of your team, co-controlled by your team members. Liberty Island is also an important naval foothold, siezing control of it will block enemy passage from the Hudson River and possibly Upper Bay.
 * Give 1 province to ONK. You can choose to cede one province of your choice from your team to ONK. This way, the ONK will leave you alone (for now). If you decide to choose this option, you will be trading power for peace. However, they will attack you when they are only 2 teams left on the map. (If you choose to fight them at this time, you will not suffer +50% casualties)
 * Do nothing. You could ignore the ONK, but this comes at a price. The ONK will seek to destroy you. Each turn, there will be a terrorist attack on one of your team's districts. Your population and army will suffer 100-1000 casualties, depending on the severity of the attack. Bridges and railways can also be destroyed by these attacks.

Riots
Pro-FCB riot breaks out in Pleasent Plains with 10,000 troops

Pro-FCB riot breaks out in Greenwich with 10,000 troops

Pro-FBA riot breaks out in Astoria with 5000 troops

Greenwich
We recruit 35000 more troops (overall 95000) to destroy the FCB riots in Greenwich by using all of our troops except 25000 (that means for the riots, the troops defending it would be 70000) which will go for helping the FBA riots in Astoria to help eliminate the FCB from it and will be used as a barrier for future invasion. They used the bridge in a pathway from Williamsburg to Astoria and some transport they have built to travel by water. We stop recruiting because we need to reduce the chance of riots unless we lost a significant amount of soldiers and we decide to recruit 5,000 mercenaries to replace the civilian recruitment for the next few turns. For ONK, we would do nothing for now and will be on the watch on terrorism. This isn't possible as there will be future invasion from other factions and they'll be likely to win the island.

For Hell's Kitchen, we don't have any talks for now as the leader is not intrested in doing that (unless it's possible). That means lone wolf attacks are going to be a hit for us and we continue to build transports and ships to defend the coasts of both sides. The leader and officials drew a plan to destroy FCB and will be classified and hidden, even FBA districts can't see it and also began integrating Battery Park to have their army and population.

Red Hook
Red Hook and Brooklyn Heights are now best friends. Red Hook recruits 7,500 more men for their army, and supplies half of it for Brooklyn Heights. Tensions rise between Battery Park and Red Hook & Brooklyn Heights. Meanwhile, the tunnel from Red Hook to Business Island is completed, and mainland army rolls onto Business Island. Red Hookian forces await word from Brooklyn Heights on the plan of capturing Liberty Island.

Meanwhile, a spy is sent undercover to investigate Greenwich. The spy, Glenn Hochwich, under the name of Jen Copioch, sees that Battery Park has more army than last reported. The relations grow tense.

Meanwhile, a navy force is sent to Ellis Island. The forces sent from Greenwich to Battery Park are not yet stationed in Ellis Island, and the infantry on Ellis Island are easily overwhelmed by Red Hookian forces. The island is taken and established as an outpost. From Ellis Island, Red Hook navy forces can now see Lady Liberty clearer.

Brooklyn Heights
Brooklyn Heights Recruits more regiments around 10.000, having a total of 25.000 at the moment. Whith thoose troops Brooklyn Heights starts invading the District of Williamsburg with Bushwicks support. On the West coast, Red Hook and Brooklyn Heights are preparing a Navan Invasion of Island Liberty.

In any case of a counter attack on Red Hook, 5,000 troops will be moved from the Fort Tilden front to help them.

As for Liberty Island, agents are sent there in order to Sabotage the place and start a Pro-USA revolt. PP also calls for help from other Agents, so the Chances will grow. They also Continue negotiations for annexing Old place, and Start negotiations with Midland Beach, to unite Staten Island.

Jamaica
Also sabatages Liberty island to make the chances of a pro-USA riot 10% more combined. The total Brooklyn forces on fort Tilden and Bergen Beach are 41,000, 20,000 from fort Tilden, 10,000 from Bergen beach, and 11,000 from wetlands. 600 more soldiers are recruited to make the total army of Jamaica 59,000.
