I don’t know how confident you guys feel in the mechanics but I’ve given it a decently indepth lookover

profiles in courage

i skimmed through it like once

Each event card translated to CP for us:

Herb Klein (3CP 1R)
event is equivalent to 3CP

Compact of 5th Ave (3CP 1R)
event is equivalent to 4CP (ignoring travel costs)

Heartland of America (3CP 1R)
event is equivalent to 7CP

Profiles in Courage (2CP 2R)
event helps Kennedy

Dwight Eisenhower (4CP)
Event is equivalent to 7CP

Fatigue Sets in (4CP)
Event cancells opponent candidate which doen’t have a value but is pretty good

Real quick @Aleph for Fatigue Sets In, would my opponent be able to pay 1 momentum to flip over our candidate card to exhausted?

Do not believe so


I kinda think it would actually but i’ll probably take your word

thought you meant as in just as an action

no if they spend momentum to use the event text if you play it for its CP yours will be flipped

on a walk rn lol

I propose we start with Play Dwight Eisenhower as an event card, adding to AK, HI, CA, NY, IL, PA, TX

Although its probably better to let them start, it’d be an insane coincidence for them to do Eisenhower’s Silence on the literal first move (and even if they did, it’d be kinda a waste tbh)

I’ll give it until-I-am-back-from-the-gym for you guys to approve or disapprove since if we’re letting them go first our submission is as straightforward as saying they can go first.

but the tentative sub is let them go first

also i’m probably changing the states i’d use this on but yeah

general strategy:

Play the events of Dwight Eisenhower, Heartland of America, and Compact of 5th

Spend either Fatigue Sets In or Herb Klein on media
Spend Profiles in Courage last, use it on issues, ideally being able to strategically control the issues board from there

Ok I am BACK from the GYM. It’s not that big a play anyways and I don’t want to slowroll it so i’m gonna hand it over to JFMay
