Card art: Hegemonic Project Games, Additional Production Criteria.

Assumed voting preferences

The Desired Policies card estimates which side each other class will take when an Automa considers an Immediate Vote in a 3- or 4-player game. Moving a Policy closer to a listed section means it assumes that class votes in favour; moving it farther away means it assumes opposition. Human players choose their own votes; these are assumptions, not compulsory voting instructions. The State row estimates a human State player’s vote; its Political Agenda stays separate. There is no State Automa.

Priority cards

Action priority cards (6 per Automa) and Policy priority cards (7 per Automa, the same faces for all three) for Advanced Mode.
