Groups

Groups are a special type of contact. The cost for groups is 5 x the sum of their connection and an additional attribute of the characters membership. Connection functions just as described under contacts (although it applies to the whole organisation not individuals). Connection rating also determines the size of the organisation. Membership rating represents the characters position and power within the organisation.

Connection

5 pts Small time. Less that 10 members in one neighbourhood.
10 pts Small gang. 10-30 members in one district.
15 pts Street gang. 30-50 members in one city.
20 pts Criminal Syndicate. 50-100 members across a few cities.
25 pts National Corporation. 100-200 members across a country.
30 pts Multinational. 200+ members in multiple countries.

Membership

5 pt Newbie. Bottom of the food chain. Will have to beg for favours.
10 pts Grunt. No longer a newbie but still bottom of the ladder. Grunts may often gen help from other grunts
15 pts Lutenant. You have a few responsibilities and a hand full of underlings. You can get a few grunts and newbies to gelp you out.
20 pts Made Man. Your a solid member of the organisation. A trusted soldier who can command quiet a few underlings
25 pts Sotocapa. Your the bosses right hand man. You speak with the authority of the organisation.
30 pts Boss. Your top of your pile. The boss (although you may only be a local boss). When you say jump people say how high
