Roam the streets of a mega city, undertaking missions, dealing with the locals and hoping you can make it out of there before the Enforcers show up and start arresting everybody. -The package is rounded out with a new mission selection system that folds the new mission types into the core rules, allowing for any mission to be a street fight or stealth job. Finally, a comprehensive campaign setup and campaign turn sequence summarise all of the options from all three expansions. -description from publisher's website
