1. Introduction

---------------

This demo contains one 2 player conquest and one 6 player shootout. Notice that you can play "skirmish" in the conquest but have to find some human opponents in the shootout. Players will only be able to play against other players using the Multiplayer demo.

This demo only contains a portion of the Gangland full game. In the complete game players must build blooming business empires by intimidating local merchants in order to gain access to ammunition and weapons and to produce resources like liquor and stolen goods. Players will need to marry strong women and get children who are imperative for any Don who wants a large powerful family. Players must also establish good relationships with the "International Connections" in order to secure access to Super Units and Super Vehicles and will need to gain XP with their hero in order to survive the street fights in Paradise City.

The full game contains a total of 16 conquest and 12 challenge missions. Not to mention 24 multiplayer maps ranging from 2 to 8 players.
