Logistics Asset Cards represent the efficiency of systems that enable trade. They provide GP bonuses and efficiencies when interacting with Countries diplomatically, or sabotaging other Countries when they collaborate. They are very versatile, providing large rewards for responding to uncommon situations. If a Country plans to play diplomatically, Logistics Asset Cards drastically increase their efficiency.

Each Policy Card includes 3 Conditions:

Timeframe:

• Indefinite - Remains active until removed or a condition has occured.

• Temporary - Lasts a set number of rotations or until a condition is met.

• Instant - Ability is used once, then discarded.

Location:

• Domestic - Primarily effects your own Country.

• Foreign - Primarily effects other Countries.

Sector:

• Economic - Provides GP incentives for investing in passive GP generation.

• Military - Provides GP bonuses for acting militaristic or adds bonuses to Military Asset Cards.

• Social - Provides GP bonuses through actions that would benefit the populus of your Country.

Random Event Cards allow for unexpected global or domestic events to positively or negatively effect your Country, some Countries, or all Countries. Each deck comes with 4, and must be played immediately upon being drawn. During advanced games, different formats for how Random Event Cards occur can be used.

Random Event Cards are categorized:

• Natural Disaster - Affects Assets, GP, or trade due to earthquakes, tsunamis, pandemics, etc. They often impact multiple Countries.

• Domestic Activities - Internal developments like protests, strikes, or economic boosts. Typically only effect one Country.

• Corruption/Scandal - Causes the loss of GP, policies, or leader effects. Often disrupts planning and tempo.

• Transition of Power - Forces leader changes through re-elections or coups.

• Violence - Destructive events such as terrorist attacks or cyber warfare, sometimes allowing for counter-efforts to mitigate damage.

Investing in Infrastructure Asset Cards or specific policies early can prevent or reduce the effects of Random Events.

Leader Cards represent the fictional politicians and ideological figures that shape a Countries overall strategy. These influence gameplay decisions across all stages of gameplay.

Leader Cards have 3 abilities:

• Class Ability - Each Class has an ability that is shared across all Leader Cards in the same class.

• Subclass Ability - Each Subclass has an ability that is shared across all Leader Cards in the same class and subclass.

• 3rd Ability - 3rd abilities are unique to each leader, which can provide passive or conditional abilities, typically boosting GP, reducing costs, or altering mechanics in powerful ways.

Leaders are played differently then policies or assets. They are played into the 5 Leader Slots:

• Head of State

• Vice Head of State

• Secretary of Defense

• Treasurer

• Public Voice

Each Leader Card has two preferred positions, which they must be active in in order to receive their ability benefits or use their mechanics. Leader Cards can be occupied by enemy Asset Cards, preventing their abilities to be used, and ultimately, defeat a Country if all Leader Cards are occupied.

Not all Leader Cards start unlocked, Secretary of Defense, Treasurer, and Public Voice must be unlocked by playing a number of Asset or Policy Cards.
