Campaign 8 : Survival

This is it. What comes now is serious business, as this is the first actually challenging island. Crime is at a peak, you will have to struggle with criminal activity, buildings being bombed or set ablaze, and even with attempted bribery.

Primary Missions

A Lawless Island - Build a Police Station and Prison

The Long Arm of Penultimo - Arrest 5 Criminals.

Wanted : Finesse - Recruit 3 Secret Agents.

Grease Some Palms - Pay 20,000$.

Don Aemillio - Deal with Don Aemilio.

It is a Dangerous Job - Hire 3 new Secret Agents.

Donna Bella - Deal with Donna Bella.
>>> Four buildings will be set on fire.

Not Done Yet - Pay 60,000$.
Use the Print Money edict for quick cash.

Final Task - Don Moriarti - Deal with Don Moriarti.
>>> Win the Game.
Trivia : Moriarti is a bad guy from Sherlock Holmes.




Old Friends Missions

Old Friends 1 - Pay 9$ to contact President Nick Richards.

Old Friends 2 -  Pay 9$ to contact CEO Keith Preston.

Old Friends 3 - Pay 19$ to contact Generalissimo Santana


It seems that your "friends" have forgotten all about you.


Secondary Missions

Money can Grow on Trees - Choose an Option.
>>> 10,000$ to Treasury
>>> 10,000$ to Swiss Bank Account
>>> Nothing.
Taking money will cause a 15% drop in everyone's respect after a while. Refusing the money will cause your Police station to be destroyed. Make sure you have two, also granting you the reward from "Recruit Policemen".

Tropicans for Enforced Prohibition - Issue the Prohibition edict.
>>> 1,000$ to Swiss Bank Account.
Remember that the edict increases crime.

A Concerned Citizen - Choose an Option
>>> Pay 5,000$.
>>> Don't Pay - 2 or 3 Buildings will be set ablaze.
If you don't want to pay, you'll need a Fire Station. Alternatively, you can quickly build a high number of cheap Shanties (about two dozens). This will increase the odds that they will catch fire rather than an expensive building.

Recruit Policemen - Have 10 Police Officers.
>>> 10,000 to Swiss Bank Account

A Well-Wisher - Choose an Option.
>>> Pay 10,000$
>>> Don't Pay -1 Building receives a Bomb Threat.
Ideally you'll have a Secret Police to deal with the bomb. Otherwise, pick the least damaging option for your economy (probably the clean sweep).


The Mafia is Supporting the Rebels - Build 3 Guard Stations.
>>> 10,000$ to Swiss Bank Account, fewer Rebels will appear.

Smuggler's Stash - Choose an Option.
>>> Take the 10,000$.
>>> Set up surveillance of the area.
If you don't take the cash, Penultimo will report that the operation was a failure for lack of Policemen. I had 7 at the time, so maybe with more than 10 the operation can succeed?
