About this deal

The "Dynast" ending of 1972 Romney, earned by stabilizing the economy and successfully withdrawing from Vietnam while still losing the election. Despite George Romney losing in a landslide after his Humiliation Conga of a presidency, a young Donald Rumsfeld offers him Utah's open senate seat thanks to most Utahns having a good opinion of the Mormon president. Romney, having nothing to lose and wanting to desperately redeem himself, takes up the offer and enjoys a long twenty-year career in the Senate before passing away in 1995. At his state funeral, all of his presidential successors (including Muskie) note Romney's positive reputation as the conscience of the Republican Party and everyone in attendance agrees that George was a brilliant senator and fine president. The picture of Mitt with George also implies that, after his father's death, he would run for George's old senate seat. The Moment Forever!" ending. Savonarola and Cardinal Rovere manage to stage a fundamentalist revolution in Rome, with Alexander VI performing a Last Villain Stand at the Castel Sant Angelo with his Swiss Guards before getting killed. With the corrupt Borgias and their loyalists now routed from the Eternal City, Savonarola is easily voted in as the new pope. far-right: I believe that we need to return control of education to the states and to the people. I would end the Department of Education as President. George Wallace can pull off a variation of this in multiple mods, usually tanking his campaign, but in the 1972 mod where he wins the primary, Wallace can totally condemn his old stances on race and go on to defeat Nixon in a massive upset, even being described in the ending as "the left's tentative champion".

Poll fluctuation removal: https://www.reddit.com/r/thecampaigntrail/comments/nvldz4/removing_poll_fluctuations/ Golden Ending: As many mods have multiple endings, there are a few that are clearly the best ending possible for America (or whatever other country the mod is taking place in) and the playable candidate. Guten tag, TCT. I arrive here on this most spook-filled holiday for the first 1952Blue candidate profile. Today, I'll explore the candidacy of Republican Tom Dewey, who in Blue launches his fourth bid for the presidency.

Hell on the Wabash would not have been possible to produce if not for the immense passion, talent, and eye for detail of all three lead developers. The idea of an 1864 scenario was a glimmer in the eyes of hopeful millions just one year ago, when modding Campaign Trail was only beginning to take off. We have laboriously endeavoured to present an experience of that fateful year that is authentic, true to history, and uncompromising in its artistic vision. The product you see before you is only the beginning of this project, which will take on even more creative aspects with each continual release. What we have aspired to present to you today is our best interpretation of the situation faced by Abraham Lincoln in the latter half of his Presidency. With your continued faith and patience, we hope to deliver so much more in the months to come.

Sven: I wrote the original lineup of questions for this mod in a night a year ago. I assumed that this mod would eventually die like so many other projects of mine, through a mixture of confusion and distractedness on my part. I never got a code to work, no matter what I did. Verbluffen came in, and not only tightened up my EXTREMELY long script to something that kept to a brisk clip, but found maybe the fastest and finest programmer we could have asked for in Astro. My life outside of Reddit continues to be truly bonkers, but I am proud of this Mod, and I assure you all the rest of the scenario will follow in good time. I am extremely proud of what we have done, and am even more excited to show what else we have in the chamber.The Running Mates https://preview.redd.it/1952blue-candidate-profile-thomas-dewey-v0-o9rtzloaplxb1.png?width=933&format=png&auto=webp&s=eb0d90492639f4e6ba0e8ad273a61bf3832a3e0f https://preview.redd.it/1952blue-candidate-profile-thomas-dewey-v0-htqeaozbplxb1.png?width=931&format=png&auto=webp&s=f1048feb5ceadd0dc4ba0aebcc658b38ff16b313 https://preview.redd.it/1952blue-candidate-profile-thomas-dewey-v0-nex5qcmdplxb1.png?width=927&format=png&auto=webp&s=071ab3a87095499fd9d25474e2b5adf7610c0349 https://preview.redd.it/1952blue-candidate-profile-thomas-dewey-v0-sllv7fkeplxb1.png?width=927&format=png&auto=webp&s=93299967e319dab199fbd51bc7c8071974f87881 With the pieces all set Wallace, Taft, and the unanimously nominated Thurmond all find themselves in a race that will decide not only the identity of their individual parties, but the very identity of the Nation itself. This is not just a battle of everyone's identities as people, but a war for the very soul of America, an Identity War! Florence's map and "vote" mechanics play up the infamous Medici family as your main adversaries, but they prove to be more Disk-One Final Boss material due to Lorenzo The Magnificent dying and being replaced by his failure of a son Piero. In contrast, Pope Alexander VI aka Rodrigo Borgia is the spiritual antithesis (and potentially other side of the coin} to Savonarola and remains your most dangerous and persistent threat. Fittingly enough, it's Alexander VI and the Borgias who topple Savonarola's new republic in some of the bad endings instead of the Medicis. Similarly to LBJ, using the bigshot cheat while playing as Barry Goldwater is shown in-universe as Goldwater flying over the Kremlin and dropping an honest-to-god tactical warhead on Leonid Brezhnev. Despite this blatant violation of the Geneva convention, the ensuing election is a landslide that vindicates Goldwater's extremism.

Your debates with Bush were largely inconclusive, and analysts agree that they are unlikely to affect the race. safe red south: https://www.reddit.com/r/thecampaigntrail/comments/ok52ba/2016_trumppence_safe_south_mod_kinda_like_2004/ election scenario: https://www.reddit.com/r/thecampaigntrail/comments/p49n5k/1952_mod_20_playable_eisenhower_and_stevenson/Bush is hammering you on the decision not to debate, and it does play into a narrative that you're not up to the job. The result is chaotic and comedic political carnage as a new player stumbles their way through one terrible, inconsistent choice after another, eventually getting a feel for what works in each time and becoming able to strategize effectively. As word gets around that Nixon probably sabotaged the Vietnam peace negotiations, you are the clear beneficiary of an 11th hour surge in the polls. Will it be enough to hand you a victory tonight?
