Government: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 11:58, 30 September 2023

Mega-Primus is a city state ruled by thirteen elected senators.  This Government is directly responsible for the legal system and the mass transit systems.  All other city services, including  the policing of the city, are contracted to various corporations.  In practice, the immense bureaucracy holds the most power.  Senior civil servants are responsible for maintaining the city edicts and defining citizenship and its obligations.  They cannot be removed for the jobs except through proven misconduct.  From: Apocalypse Ufopaedia

Government

The Government is an organisation which has agreed to revive X-Com as a covert initiative to investigate recent Alien incursions within Mega-Primus. The elected senators have agreed to provide ongoing funding for X-Com's continued successful removal of these unwelcomed visitors.
The Government provides funds for X-Com every week as long as the alien menace is being removed successfully wherever they appear. If X-Com's performance is not up to expectations, future funding may be decreased or halted altogether.
If the Government's own fianances are underperforming, X-Com will only receieve half of the governments liquidity. Negative government cash flows will cause future funding to cease.
If relations between the government and X-Com are hostile at the end of the week, funding is immediately terminated. Negative relations do not matter with regards to funding throughout the current week but will only matter when the government is due to assess monetary policy at the week's end. Relations can be improved with compensation just before the end of the week.
If the Government is "Alien Friends", relations towards X-Com will soon become hostile if the government in unable to be convinced to change their ways. If under Alien control, funding is halted and relations between the government and X-Com are permanently hostile.
The Government does not offer any services or products.
New base locations are provided underneath certain government buildings. Relations do not matter. A base may be purchased regardless if the government is hostile.

Buildings Owned

Initial Attitude

The Government is resistant to Alien Infiltration; it will progress at half the normal speed. The Senate building, however, is a prime target for infiltration.

Friendly/Allied To

Unfriendly/Hostile To

Battlescape Information

Government buildings are well-protected: 10-17 Building Security with starting Tech Level 3.
If the Government becomes hostile to X-COM, it may sometimes send the same number of Corporate Hoods to raid an X-COM base. Due to their numbers and fairly good equipment, these can present a serious threat.
Government buildings are not a particularly lucrative target for raids. X-COM agents may find the following basic loot on the floor:

Notes

The Government hates the gangs, with the exception of Osiron (the ingame UFOPaedia mentions that Osiron hides their activities under legitimate trade... maybe the Government is in the scheme as well?). Besides the Aliens, S.E.L.F. and Mutant Alliance will also have ill-feelings towards them, UFOPaedia refers to banishment and discrimination made by the authorities.
