''“你就是新来的？——行吧，欢迎来到'''芝加哥'''。”''

在这座城市搞非法交易，你得多留个心眼。自从禁酒令颁布以来，各种肮脏的交易爆炸式增长，会找门路的人总能大赚一笔。要是你对私酿啤酒、演讲厅、赌场、妓院——或者地狱——有意思的话，到这座城市可就来对地方了。再就是，兄弟，别以为我是在针对你，不过我觉得你是喜欢这行当的人，但在芝加哥混，你没我对这地方熟。本Wiki将为你提供有关在芝加哥闯荡的一些提示。

== 开始新游戏 ==

去芝加哥的第一站是《罪恶帝国》的开始界面，这个界面能启动游戏或管理存档等。

你有如下几个选项，本节将详细介绍其中一些。

* '''载入游戏'''：加载一个之前的游戏存档或自动存档，若无存档则该选项不可用；
* '''新游戏'''：自定义一个开局，了解各位“老大”和其他人的资料；
* '''快速开始'''：跳过资料介绍并快速开始新游戏；
* '''设定'''：根据系统配置与操作习惯进行游戏设置；
* '''制作人员名单'''：滚动播放所有游戏制作者的名单；
* '''退出'''：退出《罪恶帝国》并回到桌面。

=== 载入游戏 ===
'''载入游戏'''界面的左侧是已开局的游戏列表，包括所选的“老大”、最近一次保存的时间以及游戏内的日期。选择某一局后，右侧会出现该局所有的存档，可以对其加载或删除等操作。

Selecting the left and right arrows on either side of the boss window will cycle through the available bosses. Each boss has four primary attributes:

* '''Boss Ability''': A specific combat ability, unique to each boss that they can use during a fight. Taking the above picture for example, you can see Frank’s Boss Ability is the Home Run, which allows him to rush an enemy target and deliver a devastating melee blow. 
* '''Empire Bonuses''': An enterprise bonus, that gives a boost to elements of two different types of racket. 
* '''Diplomatic Bonus''': A public relations bonus that is based on a boss’ own background and personality. Taking Frank as an example again, you can see that thanks to his background with Ragen’s Colts, he has Strength In Numbers which lowers the rate of his threat generation when he has a crew behind him. 

Those differences are explained in more detail in the [[Boss]] section, and a run down of each available boss is provided in Appendix X.

Once you have selected a boss, you will be able to set the rules for this game session.

You can change three factors:

* '''Neighborhoods''': Set the amount of in-game neighborhoods between three and ten. A smaller amount of neighborhoods means a quicker, tighter game.
* '''Enemy Factions''': Set the number of enemy factions you will be playing against..
* '''Difficulty''': Choose between one of the five difficulty settings: Associate, Made, Lieutenant, Underboss, Boss.

=== Quick Start ===
Choosing Quick Start will bring you through the same process as the New Game option, but will start you up in the game right after the initial boss sitdown that usually begins a new game.

=== Play to Win ===
Now that you’re in Chicago, it’s time to get to work building the biggest empire you can. Unluckily for you, there’s already a few powerful players in town trying to do exactly the same thing. The only way to win in Empire of Sin is to eliminate every other major faction and become the undisputed King or Queen of Crime in the city. To do that, you’re gonna have to hire gangsters, sell booze, buy (or forcefully takeover) rackets, and carefully execute alliances and betrayals.
