Holding:
Surplus: 2-barter
Wants: hungry, reprisals, savagery, disease, obligation, and idle
• your population is large, 200-300 souls. Surplus: +1barter, want: +disease.
• your population is decadent and perverse. Surplus: -1barter, want: savagery.
• a makeshift compound of concrete, sheet metal and rebar. Your gang gets +1armor when fighting in its defense.
• an armory of scavenged and makeshift weapons.
• your gang is large instead of medium, 60 violent people or so.
• for gigs, a mix of hunting, crude farming, and scavenging (surplus: 1-barter, want: hungry).
• for gigs, add protection tribute. Surplus: +1barter, want: +obligation.
• for gigs, add a bustling, widely-known market commons. Surplus: +1barter, want: +idle.
• your holding owes protection tribute. Surplus: -1barter, want: +reprisals.

Leadership: when your gang fights for you, roll+hard. On a 10+,
hold 3. On a 7–9, hold 1. Over the course of the fight, spend your
hold 1 for 1 to make your gang:
• make a hard advance
• stand strong against a hard advance
• make an organized retreat
• show mercy to their defeated enemies
• fight and die to the last
On a miss, your gang turns on you or tries to hand you over to
your enemy.

Wealth: If your hold is secure and your rule unchallenged, at the
beginning of the session, roll+hard. On a 10+, you have surplus
at hand and available for the needs of the session. On a 7–9, you
have surplus, but choose 1 want. On a miss, or if your hold is
compromised or your rule contested, your hold is in want. The
precise values of your surplus and want depend on your holding,
as follows.

Special Move: If you and another character do it, you can give the other character gifts worth 1-barter, at no cost to you.
