Syndicate Wars, or SW for short, is a groundbreaking hack developed by Red Crimson with help from gsaurus and Daors. It allows you to play with any character of the game, including bosses and thugs, PLUS Adam Hunter (Original Sprites by Daors). That's 23 playable characters! No enemy characters are modified, they play as they are in the original. All characters are selectable on the select screen.

Syndicate Wars is designed to be fully moddable with the Pancake2 Editor (v1.6 and above, see further below).
