#Shallow space insurgency series
If the COIN Series at large excels at any one thing - and it excels at a whole lot of things - it’s at crafting, then deteriorating, and eventually collapsing the diplomatic relations between its four players.
#Shallow space insurgency how to
Thus the question: How to proceed? Will you bribe Government troops into protecting the construction, or defy their wishes and set up a casino in much-safer Matanzas instead? Send dirty cash to the Directorio to support their takeover in the region in exchange for some beachside real estate? Or just keep reminding Castro of that favor? In fact, the only faction not currently mired in the fighting there is your pretty self, and you’d sort of like it to stay that way. People die every day down there, and the regions change hands faster than quarters in one of your casinos. Only problem is, those zones are hotly contested between the Government, Castro’s 26 July Movement, and the Directorio. So you’re looking at a pair of jungle territories, either Camagüey or Oriente.

There’s no more room in the cities, not unless someone’s base gets destroyed and the Government has promised that if you set up another in the west, they’ll invent some sort of health code violation to shut you down across the board. Now you’re looking to diversify by opening your last two casinos in the south. They’re a far cry from a jungle guerrilla base, after all. Now and then someone will shut down one of your casinos, but that’s a temporary setback - they generate so much money for Cuba, nobody’s willing to actually destroy them. You’ve bribed Batista’s corrupt Government with so many crates of dirty cash that they’re practically begging for more errands to run, and even if they weren’t, you’d just hire some of their troops to moonlight as protection for your assets.
You even have one down in Santiago de Cuba, protection purchased from Fidel Castro for some favor long ago, and you’ll be damned if you ever let him go a turn without you mentioning it. Pinar del Rio, La Habana, a pair in Las Villas. You’ve got a couple in Havana, naturally. You need eight open casinos in order to solidify your position, and you’re well on the way. Having watched The Godfather II fourteen times, you’re well aware that things aren’t likely to turn out well for the Mob’s interests down south, but it already looks like you’re outperforming your real-world counterparts. Your friends tried to make you the leader of the Directorio, but who on earth knows what that is? Nope, it’s Syndicate or nothing. You picked them mostly because you watch a lot of Boardwalk Empire and The Godfather Part II is one of your ten favorite movies of all time, so of course you picked the side that casts you as a Meyer Lansky surrogate. Picture this: You’re playing as the Syndicate, which is the American Mob relocated down to Cuba. Cuba Libre seems so big, right until you compare it to Andean Abyss.īefore we get into specifics, let’s talk about what makes the COIN Series so brilliant.
