Move William Henry Harrison III from IN->WY (alt state).

No further moves.

If that is successful, then shift Joseph W Martin Jr from Cons->Mod (faction leader ideology bonus)

&

shift C A Robins from Cons->Mod (faction leader ideology bonus)

Harrison III successful moves to WY

Hoover fails

Did you still want the other shifts?

before we move along with conversions and kingmakers

Something in conversions is not clear to me.  For same party conversions, how many base attempts does a faction leader get?  For opposing party, it specifies you start with one, but I don't see that in the rules for same party.  Is it also one?

So similar to ideology shifts, it depends on the trait of your faction leader. Those traits are in 2.1.6 under the paragraph that begins with fourthly. Faction and party leaders start with one chance for conversions, but efficient and Ironfist get 2 and 3, respectively. There are also percentage increases based on other traits.  The base chance is 10%.

No relocations.

My faction leader is iron-fisted, so three attempts.

Faction Leader AR Senator Joseph T Robinson to Moderate (50% I think)
WV Rep Matthew M Neeley to Moderate (50% -- 75% if Robinson succeeded.)
Ernest McFarland of AZ to Liberal (75% -- 50% if Robinson succeeded)

For Blue-Red:

Hoover has 2 attempts (has efficient), 10% chance when targeting pliable statesmen, 5% when targeting statesmen with Cons (15% if both). Cannot target Liberals, Progs, LW Pops. 

 

For inter-party:

Hoover has 2 attempts (has efficient), 10% chance, can only target pliable Cons statesmen.

I'll try to do this this afternoon.  Thanks.
