• Added a new counter to the what's change panel in the home page to track cash.

[edit] Dec 19 2008: Army/Defense Size

• First, army size is no longer equal to hideout size (army size != hideout size). This will help the issue of newbie users who build up their hideout size which unknowingly hurts them in the long run.
• army size is now an independent stat that is still fully under your control. You can increase and decrease whenever you want, and it will work like swear fealty. The change is instantaneous, but you have to wait 24hrs till your next change.
• We're introducing a defender size limit. The defender size is the max number of hoods in a defense structure (harbor patrol, lookouts, security post) that will be counted towards your defense. You may still expand your defenses as far as you want, but if you have more defenders in that defense, only the top powered defenders up to your defender size will be counted in your defense. The defender size is equal to your army size + 2 for army size < 5. When your army size is size 5 or larger, the defender size will be +3 your army size..
• You will not be able to change your army size in peace mode.
• You will not be able to change your army size if you have any hoods on a rescue timer.
• Alarm boost for lower-titled defenders

[edit] Dec 17 2008: Contractor Chen

• You can now track your game progress on the home page. As you gain new hoods and power, we update counters on your home page indicating what's changed. You can reset these counters at any time, kind of like a trip odometer in a car.
• Our forum has now been skinned to match Mobties visual style.
• Contractor Chen has finally made his appearance. When you pull a successful heist with Chen, he earns you more money.
• We are now limiting the number of contractors you can have at anyone time. This number grows as you earn new titles.
• Bugfix! The mass exodus of hoods is finally over! From now on, power 10 hoods will now leave exactly 2 weeks after being recruited.
