Against the Tide - Germany 1932.

[X] Militia name: The Patriots Alliance


[X] Put pressure on the Landtag! Held is on side, and the vote is coming up soon. This week, in fact. With the DnPB throwing support behind them, hopefully you can ensure an easy victory for Rupprecht (Cost: Unknown. Chance of Success: 65-80% Result: Victory is assured for the Landtag vote. NSDAP members are bypassed.)
[X] Rupprecht über alle. Ensuring that the new merger of the Reichsbanner and the Stahlhelm goes over smoothly is vital. Rupprecht doesn't trust the Reichswehr, and you don't blame him. The SA get their guns from somewhere. (Cost: 20k ℛℳ Chance of Success: High Result: Reichsbanner/Stahlhelm merger goes smoothly)
[X] Alert the Crown Prince. Telling Rupprecht about your family would be a good idea, he didn't know much about them to think you would want to reconnect with them. You should absolutely alert him to the fact your family may be compromised by the NSDAP. Better safe than sorry. (Cost: Free Chance of Success: Automatic Result: Unknown.)

We need to secure votes ASAP and our Militia soon. Also ya getting the Crown Prince a quick sitrep.

Next turn we fundraise, get a press, AND recruit for the movement.

Lol we have the same choices, but different militia names. I honestly don't care about the name, but I do agree with your choices and they should count for the same vote.
 
Alerting about the family seems like a waste compared with all the other actions, to be honest. All we have to operate on is a vague suspicion, and the potential reward is that everyone knows that our parents are not to be contacted versus potentially saying something in their presence that could be leaked. I mean, yeah, it's something important to do down the road, but I can't think of any secrets that our pals would be willing to say outside of our immediate presence (remember, trusted family servants were all sent away for that) capable of causing us big trouble at the moment.

When you compare that to ensuring that the NSDAP doesn't sink its claws any further into the Landtag, that our party starts bolstering its numbers with new recruits, or that we establish a party newspaper capable of promoting our views to the world, I just don't think it looks well. Purges can be done later after the basic infrastructure is set in place.
 
Ya but Hitler dosent pull punches.An the father seems hellbent on hating the marriage so it could be him tipping of the SA.
 
Not to mention that a noble family with influence can wreck our campaign by destroying us politically. We need to warn the Crown Prince so he can pre-empt any actions from that front.

Tipping off what, exactly? I want you to name something that you would expect our family to know only preventable by this action that Hitler couldn't easily get elsewhere and that would present a terrible weapon against us.

Our family is specifically stated to be wealthy but utterly lacking in political influence in the modern world.

[X] Found a paper! Franz is already putting the bones of a newspaper together. Naturally, he will be editing it and hiring staff for it. He will also be using his press to produce it, cutting costs for the movement! (Cost: 45k ℛℳ initial, 12k ℛℳ per week after. Chance of Success: Very High. Result: Newspaper founded. Can be used to boost/slander people/parties)

How much we care for our wife? How she looks? Kidnappings arent above the SA.

How is any of this information unique to them or something that we can stop them from sending onward even assuming ties to the NSDAP? Most people care about their wives and our affection for her isn't something we've been keeping under wraps. For that matter, she isn't either so plenty of people will have seen her. Telling our bros not to talk to them also does nothing to stop them from relaying any of this information to the extent that they have it out to whoever they want.

That aside, a kidnapped/assassinated wife would make a compelling political springboard to ring home the danger that Germany is facing.
 
When I said looks i meant knowing what she looks like for future kidnapping or beatings.

Again say what you will but if the SA can run over a kids, kill people, and have military gear then its safe to say their willing to go for Kathe.

What better break a man then kill his wife? Or use her to force the party disbanded?

What do our parents actually provide to help them to that end? Do our parents provide such critical intelligence to the Nazis on that end that it's worth forsaking the opportunities we have to blunt NSDAP influence in the Landtag or to swell up our party?

I've really got to say no on that. Our parents' interactions with the wife have been minimal at best because they despised her as a concept, they didn't even attend the wedding and all indications have been that they've kept far away from the family ever since the son rebelled against them. I doubt that they even know what she looks like at this point. The Nazis wouldn't have to bother with such a convoluted scheme to get to know what she looks like and try to pull something anyway because the clinic is very open to the public and we are relatively well-known figures.

Edit: And again, telling the Prince not to talk to them doesn't do anything to prevent them from telling any of this information to whomever they please.

I should clarify. Alerting the prince means he will be on guard, regarding your family. So he'll be aware not to trust them, and more importantly he'll be aware to keep a close eye on their activites.
