If I Were A Rich Man (No SV, Time to make Money.)

[X] A World of Crime, and Corporations: So you live in a world that is not like our own, of course you do, it's your world, not a world of fantasy. Unfortunately, you learned from a young age that this world is made up of those corporate scum bags that really own the world. There is no justice, not really anyway. The only way up is, to quote the legendary Scrooge Mcduck, Be smarter than the smarties, tougher than the toughies, and make it square. Now if square just happens to be at a barrel of a gun, then so be it. (Welcome to the bog standard Cyberpunk Dystopia)
 
[X]The World of Sword and Sail: You are not an aristocrat. You are not a pirate with a ship and a crew. This is a world that is full of Empires. Of adventure, or fame and fortune. But above all else, this is not a world where rising is easy. It requires grit, determination, and above all else… a ship. (You are on earth, in the 17th century, where the only way forward, is through sea travel to a new world)

Boats : )
 
I wonder if it will be possible to choose why we need a huge amount of money besides, well... Money.

Did we accidentaly broke a very expensive vase while working for the rich?
Does our mother need medical care?
Did we spend all of our saving whaling in gatch game?

What if, and hear me out here, Swedish Canada. Just to be cursed as shit, Swedish Madagascar too.
 
The best fucking reason to do anything!

Yes you will.

Well… you'll see the choices… or create your own.

Why… why did you make the image of EU4 and my most hated national rival!

[X]The Frontier: Space may be the final frontier, but this place was the final frontier. The Rim, the ass end of the Galaxy. The Human alliance was really trying to see if they could colonize this shit hole of a planet. Unfortunately, the last ship from the earth and any other colony, and the last thing, was over a century ago. Means you are on your own now. (Enter a Rimworld-like Planet on the periphery.)

Fun fact:
In RimWorld, a human heart can go for a market rate of 500 silver.
One lung for 400
One kidney for 250

A prosthetic heart costs 230 silver
Two field hands (cybernetic hand replacements that drastically boost your plant harvesting and sowing speed. +160% per hand) go for 850 for two (or 425 for one).

So... if someone was dead broke and really wanted to be a farming cyborg, they could (in theory) sell their heart, a lung, and a kidney and then get a replacement prosthetic heart, a pair of field hands, and 70 silver in change. Or get drill arms for the same price if they'd rather go mining.

I mean, it's probably not the healthiest sort of collateral for starting your money making empire, but out on the Rim it's an option.

[x]The Modern World: You inhabit the Modern World Silly, it's not like there is anything worse than a world that is going mad, and while the haves and have-nots are entirely based on where you were born, it does not matter. You are going to claw your way up from this hole. Hopefully, without screwing up. (You are in the modern world)

I did that once, will all my colinists for a chillaxing game of being the farming capital on the planet.

So god damn broken its great.

Although I hope we can keep it less... war crimes.

If only for the start.

I totally read that in Tim Curry's voice and I love you for that.

How morally restricted will we be in pursuit of our fat stacks?
That entierly depends on your next choice in creation.

After all... Depending on how it goes, we may be in the grey, illegal, or legal.

And oh boy... that's going to be something.

So it's really all your choice. :V
