Win the mission. Lose the city. A turn-based tactical heist where the real cost is what it does to your crew and your city.
Select a crew member, move onto a cyan tile, then ATTACK or use an ability — one action each. END TURN when done. Get the objective done before the lockdown clock hits zero.

Toggle DECK INTERFACE to reveal cameras, turrets, doors and terminals, then hack them with Vector. Every intrusion raises Trace — pick clean (safe), force (guaranteed) or burn (strongest). At Trace 10, Black ICE bites back.
Loyalty shifts with what you ask. Brittle units refuse orders or panic — PUSH to override (costs loyalty) or STEADY to recover. Some cross a red line only reluctantly.
Every action moves the city — Heat, Oppression, Truth — and your debrief and final call ripple into the next operation. Winning the fight can still cost the city.
Playable: click a crew member, then a highlighted tile to move. The target direction (FFT / Shadowrun Returns) on your live board — placeholder pawns until painted sprites land; attacks & abilities still on the standard board.

Kenshi (blade), Vector (netrunner), Dr. Grace (medic). Their loyalty shifts with what you ask of them — and brittle units refuse orders.
Winning can still cost the city. Every action moves faction power, city pressure, and crew loyalty.
