Good Morning Citizens,
I'm sure each of you would love to know that you have been invited to a team-building exercise that will be fun!
You know what pisses off rich people (besides poor people that is)? Not having enough to buy. What is the use of a fat bank account when you cannot buy very expensive items to show your wealth off to others?
That’s why citizen Gene-I-JRD thumbed through some Pre-Whoops economic textbooks and implemented a new product: Financial investments. Now, the obscenely rich can lend their XP Points to others for a project. Too bad that Indigo citizen hired Troubleshooters to serve as middle management in this new company.
Mandatory Fun is a new mission for Paranoia that satirises corporations, including the relentless drive for profits, efficiency, cost-cutting, and mandatory fun like birthday parties. (Decanting Day parties in Alpha Complex.) Players get to run a presentation to people who could easily kill them; translate a memo from corporate buzzwords to plain English; and explain to an Indigo citizen why they lost all their money. Yep, that will go over well.
And in this mission, firing someone is literal.
So grab a copy for yourself, please do not read it if you are to play it, and know that you are doing the Computer proud.
