I select George Wythe and am honored to have the legend of the original playtest as my faction leader. We shall be known as the "American Whigs (Lib)" Also btw Ted you're putting things on the wrong line in the sheet. Wythe loses obscure, gains +1 Command, Puritan, Kingmaker. Solid start for Wythe! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ich_bin_Tyler Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 For my faction leader I will select the most famous American in the world, Benjamin Franklin. He is my only pol without obscure and has the ideology/lobby match (leadership is waived).

OrangeP47 Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I will say, having a few more options because my pols didn't meet requirements, I was tempted to just go for the youngest of them, but I think there was value in starting with a strong base. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPotatoTed Posted March 4, 2023 Author Share Posted March 4, 2023 GeorgeWashingtonCPU chooses George Washington. Washington gains leadership. JohnJayCPU chooses John Jay, removing him from the career track for no gains. Jay loses obscure, gains leadership, and controversial. HenryLaurensCPU chooses @Ich_bin_Tyler's bastard son William Franklin. He loses obscure, gains +1 Command, +1 Admin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPotatoTed Posted March 4, 2023 Author Share Posted March 4, 2023 Okay, sheets are updated -- can somebody update history tab with our faction leaders, if it isn't done already? Thank you!1772 Scripted Events: GASPEE AFFAIR: A group of Rhode Islanders, led by Abraham Whipple and John Brown, burn down a grounded British customs ship that had been enforcing the Navigation Act. These acts and taxation are unjust but such violence will only inflame a response.

His inventions, scientific experiments, and publications have made his name immortal. @Ich_bin_Tyler Benjamin Franklin gains celebrity. COMMITTEES OF CORRESPONDENCE: Samuel Adams, Joseph Warren, and Mercy Otis Warren of Massachusetts set up a Committee of Correspondence in response to the Gaspee Affair to coordinate colonial opposition to the British Parliament and advocate colonial rights. Similar committees are expected to spring up elsewhere. We can only hope that such committees will be constructive and harmonizing.@Murrman104 and ThomasJeffersonCPU gain +50 TEA ACT: In an effort to help the British East India Company, British Parliament has enacted a Tea Act, which is certainly going to hurt the port-city merchants in the American Colonies. Furthermore, those desiring representation in Parliament see this as yet another list of unjust taxation. This does not bode well. Parliament must be tone deaf! Taxation on Sugar, Stamps, and now tea? We don't even get a voice to object or accept this taxation! HenryLaurenCPU, PatrickHenryCPU, GeorgeWashingtonCPU, @Ich_bin_Tyler -50BOSTON TEA PARTY: The Sons of Liberty of Massachusetts, led by Samuel Adams, board a merchant ship and dump the entire cargo of British East India tea into Boston harbor. Such marvelous boldness! It's difficult to know if this action by the Sons of Liberty will have been reckless or righteous.

Paine gains carpet-bagger. Warren gains +1 Legislative, Reformist, Cosmopolitan. (Also, I just noticed Sammy Adams somehow has cosmopolitan and provincial, even though you can only have one.
