Gains are posted in the House Leadership tab under column F (Gains)

 

I am busy most of tomorrow so it might be Wednesday before we move onto picking faction and party leaders.

2.2.3 Faction Leaders Selected:

  • The faction leader must have an Ideology, and either an Interest or Lobby that matches the cards of the faction, since he or she is expected to represent that faction.

  • Faction leader must have “Leadership”

  • cannot be on the “career track.”

  • cannot have “incompetent”

  • cannot have the trait “lackey”

  • cannot have the “obscure” trait.  

  • A non-president, non-incumbent party leader with “passive” has a 25% chance of declining the role, unless they are the only option.

  • If no statesmen meet these requirements, then omit the “leadership” and “lackey” requirements.. If they still can’t meet the requirement, omit the interest/lobby requirement.  If they still can’t, void the “career track” and “obscure” trait requirements and settle exclusively for having the right ideology.  If a career track politician ends up as faction leader, they immediately resign from the career track and receive any benefits they’ve earned from the years they served (rounded down).

Red Team also let me know if your faction leader will be running for Party Leader.

Everyone may also select a faction name at this time.

I do believe I have to omit basically every requirement. (Thank you John Marshall and William H Wells, my only guy with leadership but both have obscure.) 

We will be known as The High Tories.

Marshall will try to run for Party Leader.

None of my pols have leadership or are not obscure, so the only requirement is being Mod. Gov. Caleb Strong of MA will take leadership of the Moderates. Strong will run for party leader.

Assuming that I literally can pick any moderate and that John Adams is ineligible, I'll pick Admiral Isaac Hull and we'll be the Military Whigs.

Hull will run for party leader

Hull gains Disharmonious, Egghead

None of my pols have non-obscure and leadership, therefore leadership is the first to be omitted. We'll pick Hugh Lawson White and remove him from private track. We'll go by the Expansionist Democratic Republicans 

White is removed from the career track immediately after being put on. He's really learned a lot in his one day in the private sector.

White loses obscure, gains Passive, Everyman

Ah, okay. I thought he didn’t have an interest or lobby so the obscure requirement could be voided. I misunderstood.

Yea obscure is the last requirement to get voided so even if that is all he has going for him then he's eligible.
