I'm talking work-wise. January 1st of this year, Atlantic City had 12 casinos. One has closed already, and in the next month three more are going down unless some white knight comes along (i.e., a buyer is found) and going to put about 6000 people out of work. In a city still stuck with an unemployment rate of about 15%.

The damned queen and the relentless knight.

Blame Pennsylvania. When the financial crisis hit in '08, the state got desperate for revenue and legalized casnio construction just outside Philadelphia. It's apparently ended up hacking majorly into AC's normal tourist traffic, as formerly many of their tourists were coming from Greater Philly, who now no longer have a reason to make an hour-long traffic-congested drive to a higher-tax area.

The damned queen and the relentless knight.

I have acquired a Steampunk wargame.

It- is deliciously awesome.

Rocket-propelled bicycle.

It only requires one-hand to steer in the rules.

The most awesome mental image came into my head, of this- British Gentleman on a monocle, stoically charging a group of ruffians with a sabre held high- on a bicycle that is literally being given a speed boost by a rocket.

And another transport option is an Ape Howdah.

A trained giant ape carrying a basket where the passenger sits.

Yes.

Luft Harness- "A personal dirgible that lowers and lifts its operator"

Also-

I was looking at the companies.

One of them's Scotland Yard- which not only means I can field Sherlock and Watson.

But I can also put them- and everyone in the company- on bicycles.

Just- playing a game where every single police officer are riding bicycles, firing pistols from them, and riding into combat with their electric batons upon them.

I might as well call that set-up "Speedy justice."

if you play evil breen and go crazy you become breentler

but if you play good breen and go crazy you develop this unhealthy fixation with making yourself a martyr
