* [[Implausible Fencing Powers]]: While melee weapons aren't particularly spectacular at first, an experienced, skilled Liberal can [[Clean Cut|slice a tank in half with a sword]]. |

* [[Infinite Supplies]]: As long as you stay in the homeless shelter, your needs will be provided for. Anywhere else, and you will need to pay for rent and groceries. This is balanced out by the homeless shelter being impossible to upgrade, and effectively impossible to defend if raided. |

* [[Instant Death Bullet]]: Gruesomely averted. Tales abound of players and their allies receiving near-fatal heart wounds which can be patched up on the scene by an LCS member with a decent first-aid skill... only for the character to later bleed out from the hole left in their heart by the bullet. (The coding reason for this is that the game tracks internal wounds, and since wounds to internal organs can't be treated by field medicine, it continues to hemorrhage, dealing damage until the character dies.) |

** One of the most effective ways to survive the game is to simply sleep with the ''entire justice system'' - boosting your seduction stat and hooking up with enough lawyers and judges virtually guarantees getting off lightly, even on charges of high treason and mass murder. |

* [[Mugging the Monster]]: Some conservatives are member of the Conservative Crime Squad, and good with the guns they carry. And at C+ gun control laws, any random conservative can carry a 9 mm or .45 semi auto. |
