Round Structure

Each player will take turns in above shown order until all players have taken 5 turns.

The 2 cards remaining in players' hands after this phase is completed will carry over to next round.

Turn Structure

While each player has a set of actions that are unique to them, the structure of a turn in this phase is common to all players.

During a turn in the actions phase, players do the following:

  • 1 main action
  • Optionally, 1 free action

Main Action

  • Play 1 card from your hand
  • The card can be played in two different ways:
    • Carry out the effect as written out on the card played:
      • If the card has requirements written on it, you must meet these requirements to use the card for its effect
      • 4P: Check card for legitimacy icons:
        • If card has legitimacy icon:
          • State: Adjust legitimacy accordingly on player board
        • If card has legitimacy token icon in its bottom right hand corner:
          • State: Receive 1 legitimacy token for corresponding class:
            • This gives permanent +1 legitimacy for that class
    • Carry out one of the player's basic actions:
      • Ignore any legitimacy icons on card when used this way
  • Discard the card

The player can choose to perform these two actions in any order:

  • First action must be fully completed before second action begins

Automa

Performing Basic Actions

When resolving actions, if there is only ever one option to do something then that is what happens. Otherwise, when there are multiple choices then use the bullet points on the cards as deciding factors to remove possible options from this list. Once you get to a single possible path forward, that is the one that is chosen.

Performing Free Actions

Automa players are able to perform multiple free actions in a single turn. Consult the different class actions instructions for information about how automa players perform their different types of actions.

Simple Mode Automa Turn Structure

  • Perform any start of turn free actions as mentioned in automa section of class actions
  • Reveal top card of automa AI card deck
  • Automa performs its main action:
  • Icons on top of drawn card are treated as actions to try to do:
    • Actions are attempted from left to right
    • Automa will be able to perform action if certain conditions are met:
      • Conditions are listed in class automa section as each action has different conditions
      • The bonus action given in middle section of card is considered during this check:
        • It may give resources required to pass check
        • It may also add extra requirements that need to be met to perform the first action
    • If automa is unable to perform an action, it will move to the next action in the list
      • If it cannot perform any actions in the list, it will instead perform special action in bottom section of card:
        • If it also cannot perform the special action for whatever reason, add 3 of its voting cubes to voting bag
  • Perform any end of turn free actions as mentioned in automa section of class actions

Advanced Mode Automa Turn Structure

  • Perform any free actions as mentioned in class automa section
  • Reveal top card of automa AI card deck
  • Automa performs checks according to icons at top of revealed card:
    • Checks are attempted from left to right
    • When perfoming the first check, the bonus action on the card must also be considered at this time:
      • The action may provide the resources the automa needs to pass the check
      • It may also increase the requirements needed for the check to pass
    • When a check succeeds, move the action priority's cards up the number of rows as stated in the check's instructions:
      • Place the cards to the left of any action priority cards already in the row to be moved into
    • The check may also say to move policy priority cards as well:
      • If you had previously been instructed to set the policy priority card aside, it remains set aside
      • Place the cards to the right of any policy priority cards already in the row to be moved into
  • Collapse priority cards to remove empty rows:
    • Move rows of cards to fill in any empty rows
    • Ensure the order of the cards in that row is retained when row is moved
  • The automa then performs an action:
    • The action with the highest priority is performed
    • If the special action priority card is highest priority, perform the special action at the bottom of the drawn AI card
    • If it is unable to perform the highest priority action, the action with the second highest priority is performed:
      • If it is also unable to performe the action with the second highest priority, instead add 3 voting cubes of its colour to the voting bag
    • Move the action priority card of the performed action 2 rows down
  • Perform any free actions as mentioned in class automa section

When an automa proposes a bill

  • When an automa proposes a bill and the automa has influence, it checks to see if it triggers an immediate vote:
    • 2P:
      • Automa calls immediate vote if both of the following are true:
        • Automa will have more influence than opposing side after it spends 1 influence to call the immediate vote
        • Automa has at least as many voting cubes in bag as human player:
          • You can easily work this out based on number of cubes outside of bag
    • 3-4P:
      • Automa determines which players are likely to support or oppose change:
        • It does this using the following table: PlayerCapitalistWorking ClassMiddle ClassStatePolicy 11A1C1B1BPolicy 22A2C2B2CPolicy 33A3C3B3APolicy 44A4C4B4BPolicy 55A5C5B5BPolicy 66C6A6B6BPolicy 77B7C7A7C
        • If the bill proposed moves onto or towards the desired policy of the player according to the above table, the automa assumues they will support the change, otherwise it assumes they will be against it
        • This does not mean that the other players have to vote in this way, it is just used to determine what the automa will do
      • After sides have been determined, the automa will call an immediate vote if both of the following are true:
        • Automa's side will have more influence than opposing side after it spends 1 influence to call the immediate vote
        • At least one of the other players must be on the side of the automa

Final Round Rules

  • Automa players do not propose any bills for Immigration (policy 7)
  • Automa players will only propose bills for Foreign Trade (policy 6) if it can call for an immediate vote
  • In the Elections phase, if more cards are needed in the deck then shuffle the discard pile to refill it
  • During the final vote held in the Elections phase, all automa players spend all influence they have

Turn Order

  1. State
  2. Capitalist Class
  3. Middle Class
  4. Working Class

Obviously, any roles not played by someone or an automa are skipped.

  • The automa spends no influence during elections if any of the following are true:
    • Total influence among players on automa's side of election is not enough to change election outcome
    • Automa has no influence
  • If the automa has influence during an election:
    • Otherwise, the automa spends influence as follows:
      • If automa is on winning side of election after cubes are drawn:ConditionResultOther side has exact influence needed to winDraw 1Other side has more influence than needed to winDraw (Other side's total influence) - (influence needed to win) + 1 cardsOther side has no influenceDo nothing
      • If automa is on losing side and is only one on its side with influence:ConditionResultOther side has influence, automa has exact influence needed to winDraw 1 card from AI card pile, spend all influence if card has influence symbol on itOther side has influence, automa has more influence than needed to winSpend necessary influence, then draw (influence other side has) cardsOther side has no influenceSpend necessary influence
      • If automa is on losing side and other players on its side have influence:ConditionResultOther side has influence, automa's side has exact influence needed to winDo nothingOther side has influence, automa's side has more influence than needed to winSpend necessary influence, then draw (total influence other side has) cardsOther side has no influence, automa's side has exact influence needed to winSpend all influence the automa hasOther side has no influence, automa's side has more influence than needed to winSpend necessary influence - 1, then draw 1 card

        • Draw X cards:
          • Draw X number of cards from AI card pile

          • Return drawn cards to bottom of AI card pile
        • In all cases, if the automa has less influence than it is instructed to spend then it spends as much as it cannot
