Largo833 Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I choose to believe that the retirement announcement was sent to people who no one had the heart to tell what specifically happened 😛. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthewyoung123 Posted September 17, 2022 Author Share Posted September 17, 2022 RANDOM EVENTS- 1776-78 When we brought Timothy Pickering into our fold, we never knew that he had any extra talents. We should make good use of finding a larger role for him in the future to make use of these talents. Pickering gains +1 Command. @Cal We're certainly glad Isaac Roosevelt is representing us in committee. He could be posturing for a run for higher office. Maybe we should take advantage of this? Isaac Roosevelt I gains +1 Leg. @Cal Did you see how William Paca reacted in our meeting? This is one of several recent incidents like this. He doesn't like to be contradicted at all and Paca can't take even the lightest constructive criticism. William Paca gains Disharmonious @10centjimmy We thought Arthur St. Clair was washed up, but advisors have been reporting that he has rekindled that old fire. Arthur St. Clair loses Easily Overwhelmed @Cal SCRIPTED EVENTS- 1776-78 George Mason of Virginia is credited with crafting a Declaration of Right for the people of Virginia. The right to reform or abolish inadequate government is particularly interesting. George Mason loses obscure. @Willthescout7 An anonymous pamphlet titled Common Sense is advocating American Independence from Great Britain. We know the author to be Thomas Paine, currently of Philadelphia. Within days, the pamphlet has been read in taverns and meeting places throughout the colonies! Thomas Paine gains Celebrity. @10centjimmy An enthusiastic 19-year-old nobleman by name of Marquis de Lafayette has arrived as a volunteer for our army. I'm not sure what use he'll have for us, but he could inspire French support for our cause. Senior general George Washington gains +1 mil; Marquis de Lafayette is active to play; Lafayette gains Celebrity. @10centjimmy GM NOTE/QUESTION- Does anyone know if Lafayette shows up in a future draft, or does this event make him appear now in a faction (and if so, which faction?). Thanks! Following our Declaration of Independence, delegates were select to draft an Articles of Confederation to secure an organized union of our newly independent states. Congress can request funds from the states; No consecutive reelection for Continental Congress persons; Congress needs 2/3 of the states to pass a bill and unanimous support for amendments. We now move onto Governor Actions- @10centjimmy @Willthescout7 @Cal @ebrk85 @Largo833 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! It look like Marquis de Lafayette has a draft year of 1784, so I'd assume he just gets added to the draft for that year. Governor's Actions- William Greene Jr (RI)- Encourage settlement on remaining Native American lands. John Rutledge (SC)- Punish Tories by confiscating properties. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
