Arkansas Progressive Posted September 2, 2022 Author Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) 2.6.3 - SUPREME COURT CASES @pman +150 @ShortKing +50 @0ccultist +50 @Willthescout7 +100 @Lars +100 Long term ideology shifts No rolls since no one has reached their 10 year change Cheif Justice opinion White as a member of the Bloos and the president is Bloo, will allow the court to hear the case One case fires. Selective Draft Law Cases Does conscription violate the Thirteenth Amendment's prohibition of involuntary servitude, or the First Amendment's protection of freedom of conscience? Associate Justices None have 5 Judicial Stamina No one misses the case since none are >75 or have "easily overwhelmed" Initial decision Puritan Traditionalist Mahoney Pitney will vote "nay" Edward Douglass White, James McReynolds, William R Day, John Hessin Clarke, and Joseph McKenna vote for their ideology Louis Brandeis and Willis Van Devanter will vote what helps their cards Pitney, White, Reynolds, Day, Clarke, and McKenna vote nay. Van Devanter votes nay as it hurts the faction's cards. Brandeis is the lone dissenter. McReynolds can convert people, but Brandeis is immune to conversion Party Leader Woodrow Wilson has controversial and manipulative. However all of the judges that can be swayed are voting in line with the ideology. Final Decision 7-1 in favor of the draft. Drafts are constitutional. All military industrial factions gain 200 pts ( @Vols21 and @Ich_bin_Tyler) Edited September 2, 2022 by Arkansas Progressive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkansas Progressive Posted September 2, 2022 Author Share Posted September 2, 2022 2.7 - Foreign Affairs The Sec of State suggests actions for each diplomat, if the suggestion is declined, then there’s a 50% chance the Sec of State resigns if either the Pres or Sec of State is “disharmonious.” If the president is “pliable” and the Sec of State has “manipulative,” then the president must accept the suggestion. Wilson has pliable, but Lansing is not manipulative. @ShortKing to suggest actions to @0ccultist for the Ambassadors Increasing Relations: Success improves meter by 1 and failure decreases it by 1. Increase Trade Relations: You cannot have relations worse than neutral. Success allows you a 5-6 die roll of improving the revenue/budget, and failure leads to a 1-2 die roll of decreases revenue/budget. Extending Credit or Taking: Relations must be neutral or better with the nation approached. See the spreadsheet for Loans and National Debt). Provoke a Country with retaliatory tariff/embargo: Must be approved by Congress until the President is granted full tariff powers. Relations cannot be better than neutral. Decreases relations by 1 and 1-2 die roll chance of war. Because we've not entered WWI, no military phase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pman Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) @Arkansas Progressive Is there anything in the game from preventing a "unity" government? I can't think of an instance where it happened. I know it's happened frequently in parliamentary democracies, especially in the world wars. For example could Wilson and TR run together if each side refuses to nominate someone for the President/VP position? I think the rules require a nomination of someone from your own party but I wasn't entirely sure. Edited September 2, 2022 by pman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
