Thank you el Presidente, for this beautiful bounty of ballistic badassery. The rebel scum will feel the unrelenting might of the Empire Tropico's armed forces.

Alright you filthy llamas, you want to live to old age!?
Yes?
THEN WHY THE HELL ARE YOU IN MY ARMY!? That does it, YOU are going in first with only a rotten bannana peel and a Llama skull.
If you hit it and it bleeds, you can kill it. If you hit it and it doesn't bleed...You are obviously not hitting hard enough.

Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.

DOWN WITH El PRESIDENTE! DOWN WITH El PRESIDENTE! THE TYRANNY MUST FALL!

Wow, just gave birth to a bady and now and now a rebel fighter. I have been busy.  :lol:

PS: Thanks for correcting the name.
If I agreed with you, we would both be wrong

As a policeman, do I get to shoot someone, or just check that no one dumps garbage in the streets?

In anticipation of the upcoming ****storm, to raise morale, and to bolster faith in El Presidente's regime, I will be table dancing. In a corset.

I thought the objective was to raise morale?

I don't actually have my police station built yet - it's on my list of things to do 'soon'.  Seeing how I will be needing to establish a secret police so I can better deal with subversive activities, a police station is indeed high up on my priority to-do list.

But if you want to shoot stuff, join the military.  As a police officer, you just get to beat muggers with a billy club, then proceed to perform the mugger's job of robbing civilians.

I could build a Cabaret if you insist on doing that, and it is indeed on my to-do list because it is the perfect entertainment for my army.

I do anticipate that the population's general happiness is going to go up instead of down in the next few years, though.  My bigger worry is rebel attacks destroying an important/expensive building and throwing a monkey wrench into my operations that way.

Looking at at? Yeah, I think you should build the cabaret: IRC, the cabaret raises military happiness up the wazoo.

There is no such thing as a former KGB man.

The population just isn’t being submissive enough for my tastes.  Therefore, I shall have to make up a crisis to scare them, then present a solution that conveniently involves surrendering more power to the government.  It’s the perfect plan, you see.

What’s this?  The island’s running out of food!  Why, at the current rate of consumption, people soon will run out of things to eat, and the effect will spread across the globe.  By 2015, everyone in the world will starve to death.

But!  There is still a way out of this.  Everyone just remain calm and surrender your personal freedoms to Big Government.  Thank you for helping us help you help us all.







Trashman is still laboring away as a farmer instead of a soldier.  At this point, I am going to have to resort to science in order to make him a soldier.





And now some random builder has become the leader of the militarists!  I will have to do the same thing to her, and then wait for the science to take effect.



While I was dealing with sciencey stuff, the KGB dropped a proposal on my desk.  Don’t worry, guys, I haven’t forgotten about you.



The freighter has just arrived!  Now I have money to spend again.  The big thing I need right now is a college, so I don’t have to keep bringing in foreign specialists.



I also bankrupted the treasury putting in a guard outpost and electric substation.





At this point, nothing left to do except wait for more money and for stuff to get built.  Trashman 2.0, we completed our science on you.

   

Instead of bringing in yet another foreign specialist to serve as college professors, I decide to use the specialists we already have.  Herra Totori and Firespawn, you two will be temporary reassigned as professors.  You two are both experienced at your old job, so once we have college educated locals to serve as professors you two will be able to go back to your old jobs.  Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.





Flippin lazy dockworkers.  They are almost as bad as the Teamsters and Construction Workers at not getting things done.  Oh well, there are a lot of construction projects still not finished anyway.



Screw the environment.  I want money.





It takes until next year for the dockworkers to finish their siesta and load the freighter like they are supposed to.  Here’s your police station, Rudo.  Hope you enjoy your first day on the job.





Poor Gortef and BritishShivans will have to find a new job now.



And of course, no one suspects that my real reason for shutting down the pub is so that I can convert it into a base of operations for the KGB.  And anyone who claims that there is a foreign intelligence agency operating on the island will get ridiculed by the population and government alike as being an insane conspiracy theorist.

(Unless you are a police officer or high ranking government official, in which case you know they exist and know enough to keep what little you know about them a secret.)







Whoa whoa, wha wha wha?  The food crisis is –real-?!
Fortunately, it seems that the only individuals whom died are unimportant, unnamed laborers.



I’ll deal with it later.  For now, I need to find something to distract the population with, now that the bar has been shut down.



Really, guys?  Can’t you wait until my schedule is less busy before you go on strike?  Like, say, next year?  No?  Okay then, I’ll talk to you guys next year about it.

This strike will hurt my wallet, but I will be building my gun factory soon anyhow, so it is not a huge deal either.  On a side note, I need to look into increasing the wages of the miners so make sure my mines are operating at full capacity.







Thankfully, the rest of the year is uneventful as I attend a diplomatic meeting with some Americano named Dilmah G.



Umm, did I say ‘Uneventful’?  Whoops….



Hilariously, they are attacking the very same mine that has all the workers that are on strike.



Soldiers!  Do your duty!  Protect El Presidente!

Considering that you had just three miners, you might've as well sacrificed some respect or even paid them. No need to endure the strike.

CHARGE! DOWN WITH EL PRESIDENTE! UP WITH LLAMAS!

We haven't really figured out our ideology yet, the Marxist counterrevolutionaries composed of religious fanatics thing is really putting a cramp on our options. Llamas are all we can agree on.

All revolutionary wars are just.  All counterrevolutionary wars are unjust.
- Mao Tse Tung


Citizens of Tropico!  Don’t you see how the rebels are destroying the foundations of our society, for no cause or reason other then furry llamas?





Our brave soldiers arrive to protect our citizens!  First up, are a couple of nameless grunts, one of which is for whatever reason armed only with a rotten banana peel and a llama skull.  I heard that one of them was showing pictures of his daughter to the other troops at the military base…





…Meanwhile, paperwork accumulates on El Presidente’s Desk.  I better go take a look at that…





Why should I care about the export prices of jewelry?  I couldn’t build a jewelry factory even if I wanted to – there are no precious metals on the island for me to make the jewelry out of.



Well, those two nameless, genre-blind grunts sure didn’t last long.  They didn’t even accomplish anything except scaring off a rebel.



And, here come the rest of our boys, here to save the day!







Scourage of Ages is hit by a stray bullet and falls, even as he takes down a nameless government soldier along with him.



Firespawn gives the call for a retreat.  His men each throw one last grenade, before following him.





At this point, the entire Tropican military is all hiding in this little shack.  Well, all of them….except for one…





Behold!  The Savior of Tropico arrives to defeat the cultist traitors!





Casualties are as follows:
Loyalist Forces:  No deaths of HLPers!  Just nameless grunts.
Rebel Forces:  Ckid and Scourage of Ages, along with most of the other rebels.
