Ah, New York city: a place of crime, clubs, drugs, and gangs. Four gangs have taken over the city, casting fear over all of its innocent citizens. The Bloods, the Crypts, the Legends, and the Disciples roam the streets of New York. One gang in particular has quite a history. To make a long story short, the Bloods run most of the city, but the other gangs are trying to change that. There are some gang alliances, but individually, the gangs want to reach the top of the heap and send the Bloods into the scrap pile.
The police force in the city try their best to get rid of all the gangs. But it seems like the gangs all together outnumber the police. Police officers, FBI, and many others are killed every day by a member of one of the gangs. So not only do the gangs have to worry about their rivals, but they have to take care of the police that are trying to shut them down. Will the police succeed in driving the gangs out of New York City? Will one of the gangs succeed in taking the throne? Or will the Bloods keep their place on top? All I know is, you better watch your back, 'cause baby it's Survival of the Fittest.
It's Spring! What a relief, eh? It's not as cold as it was during the winter, but it's not extremely hot either. It's just the right warm. Warm enough to go out without a jacket, I'd say.

Frankie & Johnnie's Steakhouse A nice steakhouse that isn't too fancy or too casual. Famous for its steakhouse blend of steak, chops, and seafood. Though, the steak is the customer favorite. It's seasoned with an assortment of secret spices before it even hits the grill. The perfect place for a casual get together.

The Night Life
Brookes Casino This is the largest Casino you'll see in New York. It's two stories tall, the first floor just a normal casino with slots, card tables, and roullette. The second floor includes pool tables, a bar and a small dance floor. This casino is owned by the Bloods leader Jake Brookes. As long as you don't do anything stupid, you should be able to stay without trouble.
The Streets Ooh, it's super dark outside. Someone could be lurking in every shadow. You better be careful on these streets, especially if you're alone.
Centro-Fly The hottest night club in New York city. It includes a restaurant with awesome grub, a dance floor, and party rooms. The bar features every drink you can think of.
Flushing Meadows Park The second largest park in New York City. Rental boats are provided for rowing on the park's two lakes, Meadow and Willow. Those lakes then feed into Flushing river then into Flushing Bay. There are many recreational fields and playgrounds. Lots of people go to play soccer or cricket. A bicycle path runs all through the park, walk or ride a bike, it doesn't really matter.
Manhattan Mall A large mall right across the way from the Empire State Building. It has every store and restaurante you can think of inside. This place is a shopper's paradise.
Calvary Hospital Have a serious injury? Well this is the hospital to go to. They have a top notch staff that are sure to take great care of you.

Amityville Cemetery This cemetary is extremely spooky. It's located on the outskirts of the city and always seems to have an eery darkness to it. Most of the tombstones are toppled over, due to the cemetary's age. It's been there for years. Many gang fights occur here and many gang members have died here, making it even more spooky.
2nd Avenue Deli An old-style deli that serves the best soup and sandwiches around. Special features include, breakfast, delivery, late-night dining, lunch, and take-out. Pretty spiffy, huh?
Old Warehouse On the outside this warehouse looks, old, rotten, and basically unpleasant. But on the inside, members of theBloods fixed it up to their liking. It's just a couple of streets down from Brookes Casino.

YMCA Aka, the Y. It used to be a place where people could work out and/or swim. But the pool is emptied and the building is abandoned. The Crypts use it as their headquarters.
Two Dollar Theatre One of those old theatres that sold tickets for two dollars or less. It's abandoned now and used as a meeting place for the Legends.

Disco Ballroom This place used to be very popular way back when. It was a ballroom just for the disco scene. It closed many years ago though, what a shame. But the Disciples seemed to have put it to use.
Sugar Hill (1 sub-board) This neighborhood is lined with fairly decent sized houses. They're not huge, but they are pretty middle class. Some are split level, and others are just normal two story houses.
Audubon Terrace (10 sub-boards) Eh, not the best apartments. But hey, it's a place to live, right? The apartments have one bedroom, a small living room, and a small kitchen. You'll have to do your laundry in the main building.
