Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

Question: If I die do I get to play this story out again, or does it just end and a new randomly generated one appear in its place?

I suppose if I like it enough I'll just throw you back into the same story. I am making it up as I go, though.

Right, imma just go crazy and run on Discworld logic.

> Berate guard for not following the rules of battle. You did not give a battle cry nor even let your enemy know your name! How shameful.

(5) You manage to struggle free of the guards and sprint to a safe distance before tossing a knife at one! (5 + 1 = 6) The throwing knife zips through the air, slitting a guard's throat! It then travels around the group of guards like a boomerang. It (5) Slits another throat, (Three 6's in a row!) decapitates three more (!), (4) slices open the last guard's arm, and (2) narrowly misses a random bystander. It then flies back into your hand. Holy crap.

Alright, we're back! Let's get this show back on the road.

**********~
Turn 31
**********~


META TURN:

Meta: "Does anybody know a doctor?"
(...) You might have swallowed some jagged metal or something. You can't talk right now.
Meta: Examine tools more carefully
(...) You can see a few of the tools from here, they're unlike anything you've ever seen. They look like they may be for maintenance of the on-board battle-mechs.
Meta: facepalm, and try to find a med-kit.
(...) Well, the med-bay is right down the hall. You fetch a medkit!
Meta: Investigate Sector II Storage Pods
