[] [Presidente] Guido Macias
The well-known host of San Reina's sole radio station had been in the old dictators crosshairs for a while due to his popularity, but Macias managed to always give just enough praise to the Presidente to pass muster. Many called him a Demagogue for his fiery and yet often rambling and pointless speeches. None the less, he had found his audience in the Nationalists of Atontierra and now that he had become the new Presidente, they were eager to see the country become a self-sufficient and strong nation under his rule.

War Hero - Having led the small contingent of Atontierra's soldiers send to support the Allies in World War 2, Estrade fought with distinction on Saipan and the Phillipines. Due to his fame, the Militarist and Nationalist factions have a very good opinion of him.

My guess is that it is because of our War Hero gives us a good reputation amongst the Nationalist, and based on Guido Macias description, he seems to be the leading member of the Nationalists.

I wonder if we should close vote early?
 
[X] Be open about this and spread what you can piece together about FEIS crimes within Atontierra.

Reckoning with the past internally is fine, but I don't think it's beneficial to make this the face of the country to the international audience.

EDIT: I voted without looking at the total or anyone else's votes, so I guess I'm outvoted. I have no idea why it's so unanimous, though. Don't hide anything, not, but this really shouldn't be the way the world hears about us.

Going loud like this doesn't seem all that unreasonable to me. It's a mix of making it as blatant and clear as possible that we aren't okay with what the old regime was up to, and (hopefully) making it more difficult for the elements of FAIS that escaped to cause trouble again.

Besides, what's a military coup without a few skeletons falling out of the closet?

Well, it seems that Revolutionary Fervor could end up being useful, but we are at the limit, before it becomes problematic. When it comes to notoriety, the question probably is, if it is better to be known for bad things, to not being known for anything.

Oh. Don't worry. You are missing other fundamental stuff too.

Taxation in particular is missing because the old government just... seized stuff whenever they felt like it. And if you complained about that, you got a one way ticket to San Miguel.
 
But watch, if we do try to be a normal state and resume normal state functions there'll be a whole faction of the populace totally not stirred up by that weirdo secret police dude suddenly rioting against the "loss of their rights."

Turn 1 – A New Beginning
  • Threadmarks
    • Turn 1 – A New Beginning​

    It was a grisly display that was laid out in San Reina and other cities in the following days. Men with cameras had been walking through the carnage of San Miguel, making sure to photograph every detail of what they saw before turning to the grim task of photographing the faces of the dead. And so came the great walls of dead faces to Atontierra's plazas and market places. Hundreds of photos, each with a number were nailed to boards and shown to the public to give the next of kin a chance to at least know what had become of the people FEIS had torn out of their lives.

    Soon enough, the cries of the grieving were the most common sound in the cities. And it would not stop. While there were hundreds that had been killed during the massacre in San Miguel, there were even more dead buried in mass graves all over the compound. Unlike the recently dead, nothing could be done to identify them. There would only be a number on the cross when they were reburied in proper graveyards all over the country. And while the walls of photos would be a passing thing, the thousands of numbered graves would stay forever, always serving as a reminder of Vergara's and FEIS' crimes.

    Once the first grief had passed, the rage began to simmer. People were aching to somehow have redress for the horrific events that had been laid out before them. There was some hope that speedy tribunals for the members of the old regime could quell that fervour, though others pointed out that hearing the criminals themselves recount their deeds might just incense the public further. Fingers were beginning to be pointed.

    At the church, that had been largely left alone by Vergara in return for the priests staying silent about politics. At the banks that had helped to plunder the country. Some even at the military that, as was argued by a few, could have stopped these atrocities much earlier. Something needed to be done, that much everyone was in agreement already, though for now their hands were barely stayed.

    Gained 2 Revolutionary Fervor.

    It was harder to gauge how foreign countries would react. Once the initial news broke and Presidente Estrada had sent out an account of events to governments and press alike, a few reports had come to see things with their own eyes. Times, BBC and Pravda had sent whoever was near Atontierra to watch events unfold in the cities and to document as the army exhumed body after body from the burned-out camp. Whatever their readers and their governments would think, it was undeniable that the name of Atontierra would be tied to this atrocity for a long time to come.

    Gained 1 Notoriety.

    There were better news though, even if nobody outside the presidential palace had the attention to spare to really appreciate them. In the mountains, the ERPA had apparently taken a liking to the news they've heard from the capital. Commandante Velasquez and the other leaders of the group had penned a letter in which they proposed an indefinite ceasefire as long as the army was willing to not move further west than Huizanola and promised to not block civilian traffic entirely. They specifically called out the land reform as a long overdue and much appreciated reform and that they would be willing to stand down entirely if the new government was willing to compromise on the land redistribution.

    In Costa Gris, the situation was still somewhat, though the last radio broadcast by the General had seemingly been enough to prevent the worst. Led by an unofficial union and a rather outspoken man called Rolan Cordero, the crowd that had stormed the FEIS office had set up their own small government council for the city. They were unclear about the exact nature of their demands for self-governance, but they had voted on if they would accept the government in San Reina under Presidente Estrada as legitimate and the result was narrowly in favour of doing so. The Lieutenant Colonel in charge of the 4th Motor Rifle Battalion had briefly negotiated with them and while the council was unwilling to cede control of the city entirely, they had begun to work with the military to establish some order again.

    So far, Atontierra had gotten off lightly. There was no shooting in the cities, most of the previous ruling elite and their helpers were in custody and there was a new leader that most people could somewhat agree on. But it was far from over. As Presidente Estrada poured over maps, reports and plans in his office, it became clear just how many challenges still were ahead and how few tools there were to overcome them with.



    Turn 1​
    For each action allocated to a given task, 3d6 are rolled and added to the progress. Some tasks do not require a progress roll and automatically complete when one action is allocted to them.
    Actions of a given ministry can only be used on tasks of that ministry. Personal actions of the Presidente can be assigned to personal actions or any ministry action.
    Tasks market as Revolutionary require the spending of one point of Revolutionary Fervor per action spent on them. Most tasks require a certain amount of money, which has to be paid when they are first started.
    Once a task has been started, it needs to be kept active with at least one action worth of effort per turn. If this is not done, the task loses 3d6 worth of progress per turn.

    Foreign Ministry
    Presidente Estrada entered the world stage with quite a bang. It might be a good moment to establish regular contact with other governments, lest they only remember Atontierra for what happened in San Miguel.
    Current Minister: -
    Available Actions: 1
    Upkeep: ???

    [] Greeting the World
    The new government of Atontierra has yet to formally establish relationships with the wider world. At the very least the US and Soviet ambassadors need to be talked to.
    Cost: -
    Progress: -
    Result: Starts "Greeting the World" event.

    [] Where is my money?
    There is some evidence that Vergara's government has established substantial accounts in foreign countries. Since those were state funds, they should technically now fall under the new governments control. Provided it could find the accounts and convince the banks of this.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 10
    Result: Chance at recovering lost funds.

    [] Foreign Propaganda
    Some of Vergara's old allies have likely managed to flee the country. Spread information about them and that they are wanted in Atontierra for their crimes.
    Cost: $2 Million
    Progress: 0 / 10
    Result: Makes it harder for old regime members to find asylum abroad.

    [] Reduce Notoriety
    Between the known exploits of the old regime and the massacre of San Miguel becoming a internationally known event, the country is beginning to rack up a reputation. Best to start fighting back against that before the opinions about Atontierra become entrenched.
    Cost: $3 Million
    Progress: 0 / 30
    Result: Reduces Notoriety by 1.

    [] Foreign Investors
    Trying to improve Atontierra's economy would be much easier with more money to spend. See if you can entice some foreigners to invest.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 10
    Result: Gain investment opportunity.


    Ministry of Agriculture
    Agriculture is more or less the only major industry in Atontierra's economy, so it will need to be handled with care. Especially since you promised to upend the status quo with a land reform.
    Current Minister: -
    Available Actions: 1
    Upkeep: ???

    [] Land Reform: Gather Opinions
    It would be rather helpful for the land reform if you had a better understanding of what people expect to get out of it. Send our some people to speak with those who stand to gain or lose from the reform.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 10
    Result: Learn what people want.

    [] Land Reform: Surveys
    Before the land is redistributed, it would help to have a better understanding of how much you even have and which land is most useful for what task. Send some surveyors and experts out to learn more about the land.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 15
    Result: Learn more about the land.

    [] Land Reform: Market Analysis
    Beside knowing more about the land, it might also help to learn more about your own needs and what foreigners are most interested to buy. Send people out to the market places to learn what Atontierra needs and pour over foreign trade statistics to see what exports would be promising.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 5
    Result: Learn what the markets want.

    [] [Revolutionary] Land Reform: Redistribute all of the Land
    Vergara had most of the countries land seized, meaning the land reform has plenty to address. But even he didn't touch a few land holders. The last few powerful planters and the church still hold a lot of land. The people see no reason why there should be made exceptions for them during the reforms.
    Cost: -
    Progress: 0 / 5
    Result: Can redistribute all land during the land reform.

    [] Organize Exports
    The government needs money to keep functioning and with the old guard removed from power, the old streams of income are gone too. Start exporting the produce from the seized farms to put money back into the treasury.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 10
    Result: Gain income from agricultural exports.

    [] Modern Machines
    Most of Atontierra's farms are either using mostly manual labor or decades old machines for their work. Take some cash from the treasury to make better equipment available to the farms around San Reina.
    Cost: $5 Million
    Progress: 0 / 20
    Result: Gain improved farming equipment in San Reina.

    [] Fertilizer Factory
    Foreign fertilizer is expensive and you can't import nearly enough to satisfy demand. Why not make your own then?
    Cost: $10 Million
    Progress: 0 / 30
    Result: Gain a fertilizer factory.

    [] [Revolutionary] Seize the Banks
    There are only a handful of banks left in the country and they all kept existing by acting as enablers for Vergara's regime to steal from the people. Why should they keep profiting from the aid they gave the old regime? Punish them like all the others.
    Cost: -
    Progress: -
    Result: Starts "Debt Forgiveness" event.


    Interior Ministry
    Probably the most hated ministry in the country as it used to be in charge of FEIS until the secret police gained so much power and influence that it basically became the Interior Ministry. Now you need to rebuild the institutions from the ground up.
    Current Minister: -
    Available Actions: 1
    Upkeep: ???

    [] Payroll
    There has been no formal payroll for government employees in the last few years. Payment for most employees went entirely by the moods and favor of their bosses. Re-establish a formal payroll system to get government upkeep under control.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 10
    Result: Ministry upkeep becomes known.

    [] Establish a new Police
    As much as the last organization bearing that name was hated by the people, you will need some form of law enforcement sooner or later. The military can't do this job permanently. Start drawing up plans for how to address this need.
    Cost: $2 Million
    Progress: 0 / 15
    Result: Starts "Friend and Helper?" event.

    [] Establish a Tax Office
    The government needs money to function and the usual way to get that is to tax people. Establish a new tax office and then work out a proper tax code.
    Cost: $3 Million
    Progress: 0 / 15
    Result: Starts "For whom the Taxman comes." event.

    [] Establish a new Judiciary
    Most of the judges and lawyers in Atontierra were driven out of their job by going against the old regime in some fashion or were bought by it. You will need to overhaul the judiciary from the ground up.
    Cost: $3 Million
    Progress: 0 / 20
    Result: Starts "Justice for All" event.

    [] Start the Tribunals
    You promised justice for the victims of the old regime and while the FEIS leadership slipped through your grasp for now, there are plenty others awaiting sentencing. Set up tribunals and begin fulfilling that promise.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: -
    Result: Starts "A Trial to Remember" event.

    [] Propaganda Campaign
    With the sole radio station of the country under your control, you can fairly easily reach all citizens and try to sway their opinion.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: -
    Result: Improve people opinion of the government.

    [] More Freedoms
    Civil rights had been slowly eroded under the previous regime and by the end, people were not even allowed to gather in large groups without a FEIS officers permission. Those rules need to be changed, but the question is how which freedoms should be given to the people.
    Cost: -
    Progress: -
    Result: Starts "Leaders and Agitators" event.

    [] [Revolutionary] City Councils
    The people of Costa Gris had a pretty good idea. Why not have people elect their local administration? It is time to put an end to centuries of tyranny radiating out from a mission, a plantation or a palace. This would be a good start for that.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 15
    Result: Organize city councils in Puerto Novo, Blanco Brilla and Huizanola.

    [] Take a Census
    You know fairly little about your own country. Send people out to take a census of people to learn more about who they are and how they live.
    Cost: $5 Million
    Progress: 0 / 30
    Result: Gain Simple Census

    [] Start Polling
    Other countries have people go around and ask questions about politics to random strangers. A wild concept for Atontierra, where talking politics in public was only down by the very brave or very foolish until recently, but it would be rather useful to learn what the public desires.
    Cost: $2 Million
    Progress: 0 / 20
    Result: Gain Simple Polls


    Ministry of War
    Technically the former job of Presidente Estrada, though he had been largely unable to actually do it. The military had been sabotaged for many years as an insurance against potential coups. Time to undo the damage and rebuild Atontierra's army.
    Current Minister: -
    Available Actions: 1
    Upkeep: ???

    [] Deployment Orders
    Draw up new orders and deployments for the military.
    Cost: -
    Progress: -
    Result: Sends military units to new places or to do different things.

    [] Replacement Parts - Motorized Infantry
    As part of the slashes military budget, the last few years saw the army skip a lot of maintenance. Take some money to buy replacement parts from abroad and bring the motorized infantry units back into shape.
    Cost: $4 Million
    Progress: 0 / 12
    Result: Repairs done to all motorized infantry units.

    [] Replacement Parts - Tank Units
    As part of the slashes military budget, the last few years saw the army skip a lot of maintenance. Take some money to buy replacement parts from abroad and bring the tank units back into shape.
    Cost: $8 Million
    Progress: 0 / 20
    Result: Repairs done to all tank units.

    [] Remedial Training
    Training was kept pretty basic in recent years due to the lack of budget and the distrust garnered by being seen "preparing for something". Now that money can be allocated to the military freely, it is time to make sure every soldier knows at least the basics.
    Cost: $3 Million
    Progress: 0 / 20
    Result: Removes any hidden training deficits.

    [] New Bases - San Reina
    Now that you no longer need to kept he military far away from the capital, it is about time to establish a proper base for the army headquarters.
    Cost: $5 Million
    Progress: 0 / 15
    Result: Gain military base in San Reina.

    [] Propaganda - Hearts and Minds
    Since the military will be interacting with the civilian population a lot more in the coming months or maybe years, it couldn't hurt to improve their image a bit.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: -
    Result: Improve the militaries image in the public eye.


    Ministry for Public Works
    Probably the most gutted ministry of them all, the Ministry for Public Works has been hollowed out since shortly after Vergara came into power. Now it is mostly just a name on a building and some rotten infrastructure that hasn't been maintained in ages.
    Current Minister: -
    Available Actions: 1
    Upkeep: ???

    [] Survey Infrastructure
    Before anything else can be done, you need to know where you stand. Most infrastructure hasn't been maintained for years, hospitals and even fire stations were relying on donations for funding. See what you can salvage and what you need to write off entirely.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 15
    Result: Learn the state of public infrastructure.

    [] [Revolutionary] Nationalize the Church Schools.
    Education had long been dominated by the catholic church in Atontierra and it was always deeply steeped in scandals and abuses of the privileges and influence this brought. Vergara didn't touch these schools after they stopped criticizing him and as far as the people are concerned, that makes them complicit and worthy of being broken up and taken over by the state.
    Cost: $2 Million
    Progress: 0 / 10
    Result: Take over the currently church run schools.

    [] Reopen the university.
    San Reina used to have a fairly well known and respected university, but like most people who were used to thinking for themselves, the professors were seen as potential troublemakers by the old regime. So they just simply closed the university. It's about time to undo this and bring back higher education to Atontierra.
    Cost: $3 Million
    Progress: 0 / 30
    Result: University of San Reina opens again.

    [] Bread Dole
    There are a lot of people in Atontierra than can barely afford to put enough food on the table to not starve. Establish a network of soup kitchens to ease the ever present hunger by providing free food to the people.
    Cost: $5 Million
    Progress: 0 / 10
    Result: Gain soup kitchens.


    Presidential Office
    The personal office and household of Presidente Estrada. With the ministries in shambles and no ministers selected yet, he will probably need to do most of the work himself for now.
    Available Actions: 5
    Upkeep: ???

    [] Name a Minister - [Write-In Ministry]
    Naming a minister would make things much easier and greatly expand that ministries capabilities. Have your aides prepare a list of potential candidates.
    Cost: -
    Progress: -
    Result: Gain some applications for the ministry in question.

    [] Have a Meeting - [Write-In with whom]
    Meet with someone important, discuss their problems and see if you can improve relations.
    Cost: -
    Progress: -
    Result: Can lead to improved relations, opportunities or events.

    [] Cult of Personality
    El Presidente has done many great things and will do even more and greater things for Atontierra in the future. That certainly warrants a bit of self-aggrandizement.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: -
    Result: Starts "All Glory to El Presidente" event.

    [] Tour de Atontierra
    Even though you can reach most citizens through radio speeches, it still helps a lot to be seen by them in person. Set up a series of events across the country to speak directly to the population.
    Cost: $1 Million
    Progress: 0 / 20
    Result: Improve public opinion of the government.

    [] Amnesty for ERPA
    With the ceasefire offer by Comandante Velasquez, it seems that a diplomatic solution to the conflict with the ERPA is possibe. Make your own gesture of goodwill and grant amnesty to all those who wish to lay down their weapons.
    Cost: -
    Progress: -
    Result: Grants amnesty to all ERPA members that want to lay down arms.

    [] Improve Ability - [Write-In which]
    Take some time off from your duties and instead try to improve your abilities.
    Cost: -
    Progress: 0 / 20 x new Ability level
    Result: Increase an ability by 1 point.


    AN: Plan-voting only please.

    • Well, the common sense move is to find ministers for everyone and formally Greet The World, less we attempt to do literally everything ourselves while cut off from the outside.

    We also probably need either Hearts & Minds or a new base.
    Then we need a census, so any tax plan we set up doesn't immediately catch fire and explode.
    ……Agriculture is just a mess. I don't even know.

    The last guy in charge was flicking useless, apparently.

    You are a few thousand dead civilians behind in the bad guy competition. And Corradini is even still out there and can increase his lead if he is so inclined.
     
    Well, this is an interesting quest to chime in on on turn 1. Let's suggest the obvious here:

    [X]Plan: What's All This, Then?
    -[X] Greeting the World (1 Action)
    -[X] Land Reform: Surveys (1 Action)
    -[X] Payroll
    -[X] Propaganda - Hearts and Minds (1 Action)
    -[X] Survey Infrastructure (1 Action)
    -[X] Name a Minister - All (4 Actions)
    -[X] Amnesty for ERPA

    Survey the two ministries that need it to start making informed decisions, get off on a good start with foreign diplomacy and domestic propaganda, and continue de-escalation with the revolutionaries in the mountains. We want to be the ones directing the revolution, no? And that means getting the radicals to shoot at people who aren't us first and foremost.
