OK I really liked this chapter, no I'm not sucking up to Synner, the poor man had enough bitches from me and my group that I suspect silence would be a relief, but I realyl did like this chapter. I admit my knowledge of Portugaese history is limited, but I did like this chapter.

Politics, corps society and play grounds, corp and other wise. I also like the local corps and thehint of religion in the back ground as a whiff of potential racism if a few things change.

The 4 families reminds me of the old Fuchi in fighting.

Corp play grounds give lots of room and the collage of cultures seems less like Cassablanca than New York in the 1900's or 1970's exciting inovative but maybe, just maybe dangerous, if you're not careful.

The only thing missing was a discription of the land. OK I'm getting way picky, but if someone who lives there, hint hint hint, could fill in? From my wine geek readings it sounds like a land of deep ravines, especially in the north where "port" comes from, which is why it was so defensible against the french in the early 19th century. If this is true, then that would be significant in running. Also are there earthquakes? I know the city was leveled in the 1750's

Otherwise there mercs, casinos, corps and mafioso, let the good times roll :nuyen: :nuyen: :nuyen: !
