Description:

CrimeLord is a play-by-e-mail (PBEM) game where players incarnate powerful
CrimeLords, leaders of crime gangs who try to take control of the city. To
reach this goal players fight other CrimeLords, take control of the crime
around and bribe the Forces of Law.

You take the role of a CrimeLord in an strategic game and plot, and set
your web of power and crime from your Headquarters. You don't take part
directly in the illegal activities, but command your Units to make actions
for you.

You have to submit your orders for each turn after set firstly the Gang,
and you'll react against the movements of other CrimeLords and the Law.
The administration of your territory is simple at first, but as the game
advances, you'll have to take care of your incomings, the bribery of Law,
the movements of your Units and the actions of other CrimeLords.
