Art thieves in Art City

Several art thieves have robbed the town’s art museum and have stolen the pictures of various artists. Now they want to bring them to a dealer to sell them. However the police already have a lead and are on the trail of the gangsters.

Rules

Each gangster receives a band representing one “life”
The gangsters must try to bring their pictures to the dealer to sell them.
The life bands can be stolen on the way from the hideout to the dealer by the police or by the members of other gangs.
If the gangster loses his life band he must hand over all of the money and pictures in his possession to the attacker.
A new life band can be collected in the hideout.
The various artists have, depending on the dealer’s requirements, a different value which constantly changes throughout the game.
