Good job Gurth. You put the package together pretty well. Might I make two
more suggestions?

I know some people are unhappy with the terms "Crime Boss" and
"Johnson" to
describe the "levels" of Fixers. Maybe if you added in something like
"titles may vary." "Individual fixers likely won't call themselves
"Johnson's". They are just "Fixers, you know?"" Word it as you
like, of
course. In other words, make it clear that the "level titles" aren't real
titles.

And could you provide an English translation for that bit of Dutch you
included in there?

Like I said, very well done. I like everything you've added.

Shouldn't be too much trouble, no. It's not finished yet, there have to be
descriptions for the various types of fixers as well...

You mean this one?

Ik heb voor alles helemaal geen tijd
Ook niet voor heel even
Ik moet aan m'n salaris denken
En aan m'n relaties

Alright, just for you :)

I don't have time for anything
Not even for a little while
I have to think about my salary
And about my relations
