The Dossier

Part two of the handbook. One card per feature, written as the file the police keep on you, or the file the family keeps on the city. This is where the exact rules and formulas live. Every number comes straight from the game.

Part one, the basics in plain language, is in the handbook.

Soft prestige

What it is

Starting over, but with a name the street won't forget. You throw away your climb and come back as a heavier hitter. Possible from rank Don, and not while you have a loan open or are locked up.

Where to find it

More, Prestige.

How it works

You win a permanent bonus on your loot: every job, score, brawl and murder pays more. Every new rank makes that bonus bigger, up to the cap.

You get influence for the Style, and your first prestiges earn a medal.

You lose: your rank and progress, street cash (you keep some starting cash), your businesses, your districts and casino tables, unused skill points, your heat, your streak and your running timers. You start over in Rotterdam.

Costs, returns and limits

You keep: bank, weapons and rides, attack and defense (skill points you already spent stay), family, crew, respect, achievements, mastery, season score, influence and style. Cash still sitting on your businesses or in the laundromat goes to the bank first.
