Player Progression

This is the office ladder as a click path, not a story. You hold one office at a time.

Phase 0: you just spawned#

Dashboard shows Independent, no office, 25 actions, ₳250k Campaign Funds, Favorability 50, PI 0.

Do this: Create a Character leftover clicks, then Getting Started.

Phase 1: build (still no office)#

As an Independent you enter the independent primary rather than a named party's primary. You can also Campaign, Fundraise, buy ads, run polls, Support/Attack, Barnstorm, influence NPPs, and publish news.

Target before you file: PI 40 to 60, Favorability 60 to 70, Donor Level 3.

Phase 2: join a party#

1. Open Parties.
2. Open a party close to your sliders.
3. Join.

You immediately get primary access, Party Influence accrual, a share of the party action pool, and leadership races later.

Switching later hits Favorability and PI and resets Party Influence.

Phase 3: first primary#

1. Open Elections. Filter home state / region, low office (State Senate, House, MP, MdB).
2. Open the race. Confirm the primary window is open.
3. Quick Poll.
4. Declare.
5. View Campaign. Spend Campaign (PI), request NPP endorsements. Do not attack same-party rivals.

Highest primary score per party goes to the general.

Phase 4: first general#

Same race page, now with a live tally. Final ~4 turns are ~30% of the pool.

1. Keep PI up with Campaign every day.
2. Ads to hold Favorability 65 to 70 (above 75 wastes money).
3. Endorsements matter more than in the primary.
4. Log in hourly for those last four turns.

Phase 5: you won. What to click#

Profile shows the office. New nav: legislature, bills, maybe cabinet.

• Legislative office: open the chamber, vote, propose bills (10 AP plus NPI per provision).
• Executive: nominations, sign/veto, country tools.

Bonuses (on top of 4 base AP):

Non-US offices grant the local equivalent. Country hubs have the exact table.

Phase 6: go up#

You cannot stack elected offices. Win the next race before this term traps you, or wait it out.

Typical US clicks: State Senate → House → Senate → Governor → President.

Parliamentary: win a seat → party leadership → PM/Chancellor after the chamber result and confidence.

Presidential races are NPI races. Build NPI for many cycles before you file.

Your first week#

• Party joined.
• PI climbing with Campaign; Favorability 60+.
• First low-office primary identified and polled.
• You are not filing Senate/President as your opener.
• You know which screen is Dashboard vs Elections vs Campaign vs legislature.

If you are not in office#

You can still run the whole campaign loop and a corporation. You cannot write or vote bills.

Corporation path (optional, later): Corporations in the nav.
