PRIMARY GROUP 1(IOWA) ACTIONS

You can do any of those actions with your MAJOR candidate

 

  • Make Demand for endorsement: Make any offer to a rival candidate as a demand to drop out and endorse them (see Presidential Promises). 

  • Embrace Local Issue as Your Own: 25% chance of Gain +1 in a state in the upcoming primary group (candidate chooses). If the candidate’s personal ideology is the same as the state’s bias, then increase to 50% chance. If the candidate’s personal ideology does not border that state’s ideology, then there’s a 50% chance the candidate’s ideology shifts with a 25% chance of gaining “flipflopper”.

  • Withdraw from race and endorse: Pull your candidate from the race and endorse a candidate. 75% of your delegates will go to that candidate, the other 25% will go to a candidate of the most similar ideology of your candidate, randomized if tied. 

  • Withdraw from race and release delegates without an endorsement: 25% of the delegates will go to the candidate with the most similar ideology of your candidate (randomized if tied); 25% will go the current front runner; 25% will go to the party leader; 25% will go to the faction with the lowest score. These are cumulative. 

  • Withdraw from the race but hold the delegates for leverage at the convention: You maintain your delegates. Roll a 1-2 to see if you get “Disharmonious.” A candidate with “harmonious” will not hold delegates.

  • Give a major speech: This can be done only once by the candidate during the primary. Roll a 6-sided die. These penalties below are applied in the next primary phase or to the momentum at convention if this is rolled in the last primary phase. A candidate can choose not to give a speech.:

  • Campaign focus: Candidate chooses one state to focus on. Roll a 6-sided die:

  • Attack Rival in Words, Ads, Via Surrogates, and Etc.: Candidate: Candidate chooses a primary rival to attack. 

  •  

You have 24 hours to make your moves

can minors do it in their home region or home state?

The rules don't say anymore. It looks to me like a part was deleted. Also feels like it starts mid sentence. It references "major candidates (whether they are in the top 4 or not)". So does that mean minor in the top 4 can? Doesn't say. Doesn't talk about minor candidates at all. I was told it by others it used to mention minor was home state only.

In the other playtests I followed, I'm pretty sure that minor candidates could only act in their home state. I don't remember if minor candidates could act more broadly once they performed better.

Yea for the 48 test I went with home state only or if they made it into the top 4 of delegates. Took what rules were there and  interpreted as best as I could.
