These should cover it. Thank you for jumping in on this, and let's keep it up! I have a lot of good print resources for candidates positions on the issues, so I can be very helpfull with that.

Patine Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I'd probably suggest rather than starting from scratch, using Electric Monk's 1968 scenario as a basepoint to build upon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what I'm doing, Patine! I'm almost done with the issues and I've already removed the 1968 candidates that didn't run in 1972. I'll soon start to include the new candidates and fix dates, issue standings etc. I'm guessing the most difficult part for me will be the percentages, I always get mixed up with them when I try to do scenarios. (And I must say, I would have been a lot more advanced on this scenario if it wasn't Carnaval week here in Brazil. Not because I'm going on parades and such, but because the work load at my job is heavier these days since half the staff is off for the week) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericanDream Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 If you need any help don't hesitate to ask, I actually half-finished a 72 scenario before I switched to Windows 7 and lost it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
argonaut Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 I'd suggest making it tough, but not impossible, to win as a Democrat. After all, who wants to play a game with a pre-ordained outcome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
