Underworld Hub[edit | edit source]
The Underworld Hub is a room you can build in your Safehouse. It is equipped with state-of-the-art counter-surveillance gear, secure communication lines and connections to encrypted dark web markets. With this module the Face can further support mercs operating in the field and work their network of shady contacts and digital auction platforms to find new potential mercs and power players within the depths of New Boston shadows.
The Tokens granted by the Underworld Hub can be used to boost Legwork chance, reduce Legwork duration, recruit new mercs (level 2+), find new Contacts (level 3+) and can be traded for NBS Cubes (level 4+).
