Patch Notes
Major Changes
ːcartel_nothing_personalː Gang Alliances. Convince Enemy Gangs to enter into an Alliance with your Cartel! They will provide firepower in combat, won’t attack you, and even let you use buildings in their region! But be cautious. You’re not the only one that can break off an Alliance…
ːcartel_nothing_personalː Enforcers vs. Enemy Gangs. Why should you be the only one that gets blamed for everything? Now when Terror rises, Enemy Gangs, their cities, and their buildings will also become a target.
ːcartel_nothing_personalː Updated Tutorial. We’ve expanded the Tutorial to add missions about Gang interactions and combat!
ːcartel_nothing_personalː Gang Agreement UI. It’s no longer a dialogue! Conduct your trades in a new window that will make the process easier and smoother!
