In the Northeast, we have the good fortune to have several different games all within driving distance (this summer, it will hopefully be at least five - MA, NJ, NY, PA, and VA). In addition, we’ve been blessed with travelers from Texas, who come up regularly, adding immensely to our events. Travel is what makes this network unique and brings our brand of the apocalypse to life.
Also, you all like to bring loot.
So we’re releasing a plot kit where you can use local item cards from other chapters (and even purchase items from other chapters at our Post Office). Trade Compacts & the Night Market is an active Dystopia Rising New York plot kit where players may submit Action Requests and use items from other chapters. The best part: once someone opens up an item for use (or even procurement), anyone can use it at our events!
How It Works
After reading the plot kit, you’ll understand that you can set up either a Trade Compact (using Master Financial Influence) or a Night Market smuggling route (using Master Criminal Influence) to use other chapters' local items. If you succeed in setting up a Trade Compact, you can even procure the items in Requiem (such as purchasing off of another chapter’s buy lists). You might need some help from a master criminal or financier, but once you succeed, these items are in play at DRNY.
If you’re a Texas player, this is replacing the San Saba Trade Agreement with Requiem, which expired in January. If you’re a visitor and want to reopen particular buy lists with us, please submit an Action Request.
Things To Remember
Night Market routes will be easier to establish than Trade Compacts since Trade Compacts let you get the items at will.
You need someone with either Master Criminal Influence or Master Financial Influence to be part of the Action Request.
We may or may not have an actual mod for you at game, at the staff’s discretion. Otherwise, we’ll resolve the Action Request via email.
When you make the request, realize we might approve it, deny it, or approve it with restrictions. If we approve it, we’ll put it on the website (along with any restrictions).
As a policy, we will not approve any Trade Compacts without the permission of the other chapter.
We’ve made this plotkit available for use to other chapters… if they implement it, you can request to use your Requiem items in their games!
