World Domination mod for Half-Life 2

"World Domination" is a mod based on taking over and ruling the world on the source engine. The mod focuses on the player gaining support and rising from the ranks of petty criminal to guerilla leader to criminal mastermind and finally a dictator of the world.

The mod is inspired by many games such as "Evil Genius", "Mafia" and the HL2 mod "Empires".

World Domination follows the character Alec Williams as he attempts to satisfy his lust for power by ruling the world. The game will allow players to undertake many missions that all attribute to the player's ultimate goal of become the leader of the world. Missions involve robbing banks, shops and other areas of interests like petrol depots and weapons depots as well as gaining support through a variety of other missions that involve the player in graffiti acts, public acts of treason and assassination.

There are two types of missions; story missions which further the storyline and supplementary missions which allow the player to steal cash to fund their campaign or perform various other "important" missions which, when completed unlock the next story mission.

After each mission, the player will arrive back at their base of operations which they can outfit with supplies and other objects, as well as undertake various administration duties such as hiring recruits for the player's personal army, training recruits and checking information on how their campaign is running.

Some of the features which will be included in the final product are:

* Multiple Resources and Resource management system - Support and Cash are player specific resources whilst Power and Food are faction specific resources.

* Ranking system - a measurement of how powerful the player is (ranks start at petty criminal and rise all the way up to dictator/ruler of the world.

* Base Building System (BBS) - the player will be able to outfit his base with everything he buys or steals from shops so that the faction can flourish.

* Recruitment and Training system - the player can hire members for his faction to do his deeds for him/her. The player can also train these recruits so that they are better able to defend themselves and undertake missions.

* Entourage Members - being powerful has it's benefits, you will be able to hire special members who will act as bodyguards or elite henchmen when out on missions.
