Oh shit nigger, it's that time again. We're gonna play the incredibly complex and astounding game of politics in the United States.

Last time, we tried leading Donald Trump to be the new US President and we got stumped by Hillary Clinton.

Clearly, Trump isn't enough to save us. This time, we're gonna create our OWN politician to become the new President. Let's get this shit started.

Of course not. I have changed his stance to Republican and his Home State to Texas to fit in the real Armstrong.

Now is the time for us to decide his statistics. I am gonna give a short explanation for them, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, so read carefully:

>Stamina
This determines how many STAMINA POINTS your candidate has, allowing for more actions per turn

>Money
This determines your candidate's INITIAL FUNDS

>Fund Raising Ability
This determines how much money your candidate brings in when FUNDRAISING

>Charisma
Charisma increases the effectiveness of SPEECHES and ADS

>Appearance
Appearance increases the effectiveness of INTERVIEW appearances

>Credibility
Credibility increases the effectiveness of your NEGATIVE ADS, and decreases the effects of NEGATIVE ADS your opponent makes

>Experience
Experience makes it easier to win ENDORSEMENTS by decreasing their POLITICAL CAPITAL cost

>Intelligence
Intelligence increases the responses available during an INTERVIEW

>Media Bias
This issue determines how much the press likes your candidate which can sway independent voters

>Minority Appeal
Minority Appeal increases the amount of AWARENESS generated by Campaign HQ's in areas with a large minority demographic

>Religious
Religious Appeal increases the amount of AWARENESS generated by Campaign HQ's in areas with large religious demographics

So here's how this works. You give all of the above statistics a number between 1 and 5, where they represent the following:

1) Useless, do not put any points into this
2) Eh, put some
3) He should be okay at this
4) He's good at this
5) Extremely important, put as much as you can on him

Was Armstrong actually from Texas or did he just go to school there? Because he was the senator for Colorado, which means he had to have residence there.

I don't know, the MGR wiki said he was born in Texas, so I assumed he was from there. But if he was a senator from Colorado, then maybe I should move his Home State to Colorado. I believe that's where the player starts in the game.

>>317910743
Charisma and Credibility are a must, which means we must have lots of money and fund raising too

Alright, mixing all of these, here's how he looks.

Alright, the first turn begins.
Hillary went to Commiefornia and built an Outreach center there, then she went to Texas, our territory, and built a Campaign Headquarters there just to spite us.

She now earns 20k dollars and 1 PR Clout a week. She only needs 8 .

Meanwhile, we're starting in Colorado, we have a HQ there which gives us 10k a week. As you can see we are winning here 48 to 41

We have 3,500,000 dollars and 15 Stamina.

A few questions to decide our moves on the first week
1) Do we upgrade our HQ to give us more money? It costs 500k and 4 Stamina but it will give us more money in the long run

2) What state(s) do we start fighting for?

3) And how? Ads? (Cost only 3 stamina but are costly in money, take some time to get going, can be state-wide or country-wide) Speech? (Costs no money, costs 5 Stamina though)

4) Do we build more HQ's this week? If so, how many? We can build Campaign Headquarters (Give 10k dollars per week), Consulting Offices (Give us 1 Political Capital per week, which can be used to gain special operatives to help us out) or Outreach Centers (Give us 1 PR Clout per week, which can be used to gain endorsements that help our popularity nation-wide)

Make your move, /v/

On to the next turn. Hillary went to Ohio and built an Outreach Center, then she went to Texas and built an Election Headquarter there and upgraded it, that fucking bitch. Texas is still on our grasp, winning 47 to 41, but Hillary is clearly making a move for it.

She's earning 40k dollars and 2 PR clout per week. Clearly playing the long game. Meanwhile we're earning 30K and 1 PR clout per week.

Now, onto some questions for our actions this turn.

1) Do we upgrade our Outreach Center here in Florida to to give us more PR Clout? It costs 500k but it would give us 3 awareness instead of 1, putting us in the lead against Hillary PR wise.

2) Are we done in Florida? Should we start fighting in other states? If so, which ones?

3) How do we keep the fight going? Speeches or Ads?

4) It's also worth noting there is a Political Opportunity in Montana (44 42 our side), landing on that space this turn will lead to an event which may be positive or negative for us. Do we risk it?

We upgraded our Outreach Center and headed for Texas, as soon as we landed there the space immediately went Red. This is our fucking territory.

YOU WILL ONLY HAVE 30 SECONDS to answer the question from the time the post is made. Also: THERE WILL BE ONE MORE QUESTION IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT. You will also only have 30 seconds to answer that question.

It's important we do good here. Fucking up in interviews can do all the difference and give Shillary the win.

Well then, that was disastrous. Live and Learn, I guess. See it on the bright side: This challenge will make the victory sweeter. Texas is still in our grasp, they don't give a fuck.

As for Hillary, she made an Ad in Montana and built a HQ in Pennsylvania. She's now at 50K dollars and 2 PR Clout per week. Whereas we are at 40K dollars and 3 PR Clout per week.

Let's strategize for this turn, with the usual questions.

1) Do we upgrade our HQ to give us more money? It costs 500k and 4 Stamina but it will give us more money in the long run

2) Are we done in Texas or do we keep the fight going here? If we're done, which state(s) do we concentrate on?

3) And how do we fight? Speeches, Ads?

4) Any more Base Building? We still don't have a Consulting Office, that might be useful.
>>
>>317919650
Ad
>>
>>317919650

1) Upgrade.

2) Go out of Texas. Focus on Ohio or other key swing states.

3) SPEECH

4) No idea what stats which building give, but go for the office.

I'd say we are done, what's the next most important state?

Speech, put that charisma to use

Alright then. We upgraded our HQ so now we're getting way more money than Hillary (while also getting more PR Clout)

Next, we moved to Ohio as two of you suggested, we built our nice Consulting Office there. It will be useful to get some operatives going in the long run.

Now, for the speech.

Hillary built an Outreach Center in Massachusetts but she's spreading herself too thin. We're making more money and political capital than her and just as much clout without having to pay nearly as much. And we still have plenty of money to spare.

1) Do we upgrade our Consulting Office? Costs 500 bucks but it would help us out in the long run.

2) Do we keep fighting in Ohio? We're 46 to 42 over here, this could still be within fighting range. Or should we move to other spaces?

Alright, time for our first ad. A quick explanation on the difference between Ground Game and TV ads.

Ground Game is way less expensive (costs only 50k to start and 3k to maintain each week) but it only works on the state it's in.

TV costs way more (450k to start and 30k to maintain each week), however, not only does it have triple the effect on the state the ad is in, it also has double the effect on the entire nation, making it for a worthy investment if you got the cash to hand out.

Alright, mixing your votes. We went to Nevada first and gained some awareness there. Winning 44 43 over there.

Then we went to Florida, we're winning pretty handily, 49 40.

Lastly, we paid a visit to Texas. This territory is very obviously ours. We're winning 54 to 35. This may not necessarily be a good place to fight for. But it's certainly a very good place to fund our raises if we so desire next turn. It's the second richest state in the States and the richest doesn't like us very much.

PA is 49 40 for Hilary, not looking good there either.

54 36 for Hillary over here. I doubt we'll be manage to take over California, but maybe we can get some votes here.

Speech, Ads?

Alright.

I passed by Colorado and it turned Red on my arrival. 49 41 for us.

Now, we're losing 48 to 42 but there's still hope. What do we do here in Virginia to get them to like us? Speech, Ad? We could build a base but tit'd cost over half our money.
