Schedule I Territory Expansion Guide — Capturing New Zones

How Territory Works

Hyland Point is divided into zones. Each zone has:

• A customer population (potential buyers)
• A rival gang (if applicable)
• Police patrol intensity
• Revenue potential

Controlling a zone means your dealers operate there freely.

Expanding to a New Zone

Step 1: Scout

Walk through the zone and identify:

• Customer NPCs present
• Gang activity level
• Police frequency

Step 2: Establish Presence

Place a dealer in the zone. Initial sales will be contested by rivals.

Step 3: Eliminate Competition

Rival dealers in the zone will undercut you. Options:

• Out-price them: Sell at lower margin temporarily
• Out-quality them: Stack more effects, rivals can't match
• Direct conflict: Higher-risk option with faster results

Step 4: Lock In Customers

Once rivals are gone, build loyalty with zone customers. They become your base.

Zone Priority

Zone Type	Revenue Potential	Risk
Residential	Medium	Low
Commercial district	High	Medium
College area	Medium	Low
Industrial	Medium-High	Medium
Wealthy neighborhood	Very High	High

Start with residential → commercial → wealthy as your operation grows.

Rival Gangs

Each rival gang has a territory threshold. Push too hard too fast and they respond aggressively. Expand at a pace your dealer protection can handle.

Multi-Zone Management

At 3+ zones, you need:

• At least 2 dealers per zone
• Regular supply runs to each property
• A stash point in each zone for dealer refills
