ebrk85 Posted December 2, 2022 Author Share Posted December 2, 2022 All rookies have been moved to the bottom of your faction page. Time to submit your career tracks. @Joe303300 @WVProgressive @Bloot911 @Rezi @Bushwa777 @jnewt @Murrman104 @Rodja @10centjimmy @ShortKing 2.1.2 Career Track All players may enter freshly-drafted rookies into a career track. Each rookie can only be placed on one career track, and each faction can only place one rookie on each career track. There will usually be more rookies than available career track slots, so this decision requires strategic planning. These are the seven career tracks:Private Sector: (anybody can join) A general catch-all career track, offering a wide variety of skill and experience gains. Military Sector: (Must have military ability or only 50% chance of joining) Representing someone rising through the ranks of the US military -- likely on their way to become a general, admiral, or in an administrative military role in a presidential administration.Judicial Track: (Must have judicial ability or only 50% chance of joining) Someone serving as a local, state, or lower federal-level judge on their way to becoming a short-list candidate for the US Supreme Court.Governing Track: (Must have governing ability or only 50% chance of joining) Someone working closely with a state governor, serving as a lieutenant governor, or as a mayor with their eyes set on the governorship.Legislative Track: (Must have legislative ability or only 50% chance of joining )A local or state legislator hoping to become a US Senator or US Rep.Administrative Track: (Must have admin ability or only 50% chance of joining) A local or state policy-wonk, likely serving as a state cabinet member and hoping to become part of a US Presidential cabinet. Backroom Politics Track: (anybody can join) Someone compulsive and adept at the strategy of elections who wishes to serve as a kind of monarch in the “smoke-filled rooms” where real politics is conducted. These politicians generally see themselves as unelectable, so they attempt to find some sort of pawn to run for them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost everything will be posted in this thread. The draft we just pm so others don't see your strategy before they submit there's.

ebrk85 Posted December 2, 2022 Author Share Posted December 2, 2022 (edited) No rush on those still needing career tracks, I won't be processing anything else until after work tomorrow. But I can post the next section now for anyone that's ready before I get home. @Joe303300 @WVProgressive @Bloot911 @Rezi @Bushwa777 @jnewt @Murrman104 @Rodja @10centjimmy @ShortKing See rules doc for full details. 2.1.4 Relocate Politicians If a politician is marked for having an Alternate State available, the player can move them to that state at this time. In the event that no one can move, this phase is skipped. Attempts to move to a politician’s alternate state are automatically successful. Additionally, if any historical state or territory is underpopulated (less than 20 politicians in the state), any politician from an overpopulated state (more then 40 politicians) may attempt to relocate to it at this time. FYI: this data can be found under PolData tab. Currently only CA and NY are overpopulated. Politicians who are currently serving as Representative, Senator, CC delegate, or Governor cannot move as they are occupying a state-level office. 2.1.5 Ideology Shifts All politicians have a starting ideology. From “left” to “right” (on the US political axis), these are Left-wing Populist, Progressive, Liberal, Moderate, Conservative, Traditionalist, Right-wing Populist. A player may move a politician’s ideology one step to the left, or one step to the right. 2.1.6 Politician Conversions Skipped as we don't have faction and party leaders yet. 2.1.7 Kingmakers & Proteges To activate a kingmaker (a politician with the trait “Kingmaker”), the activating faction must identify a valid protégé to pair them with. Each faction may only activate one kingmaker per two-year phase. An active Kingmaker must be at least 35 years old and not on a career track. There are no age limitations for protégé. An active Kingmaker gets one protégé from their own faction who must also be from their own state and own personal ideology.
