Party To Treason 2: Valdragon's Coup

[Florien]

...Well, let's see what priority operation the cat decided on.

...

I'm disappointed, but not entirely surprised. Captain Banks, you're demoted to Acting Captain Banks. Your position was already tenuous, I have just made it that much easier to remove you. Also I'm going to need you to name someone to get a full audit done, because that's one of my low priority options. So do that.

(Announce your break-in choice and you'll receive the result.)

Operation Ham Slicer: A Loyalist Operation.

The recent Loyalty Day saw numerous high-ranking personnel and many previously influential people fall from favor. However, a non-loyalty day purge has shaken up several boards of directors and left a lot of empty spaces on four major boards. Seeing as you'll only be able to push in one sure Valdragon Supporter on each board, you'll have to figure out where they can be most effective at aiding the coup, and come up with reasoning for why that is that they'll be most effective in that position. Each board consists of the following options: Mayor, Town Comptroller, Junior Political Officer, Regional Media Director, Labor and Logistics Representative, Town Ombudsperson, Town Coroner, Lead Archivist, Insect Control District Senior Representative, and Gofer. So who goes in what position where, and most importantly, why?

• The first city is a recent addition to the Alliance, having been added to the territory just a few months ago. They were heavily integrated into other trade networks and put up a resistance. As a result, the city's been struggling to recover from the invasion, and is receiving a lot of aid funds to get rebuilt, only to see most of them embezzled. What position needs to be secured before all others?
  
• The second city is a relatively minor town with very little going on. It's far from anything important, and very isolated. It rarely receives attention from the Alliance, this recent purge is the first time it's been looked at in years. So, what position is most important to have supporting the coup there?
  
• The third city is middling in size and in all ways perfectly average, with the exception that it's been in the Alliance and the Coalition before it for decades, and has not once even slightly been trouble. Why it was targeted for a purge is mysterious, but not to pass up an opportunity is similarly important. So what position needs to have a Valdragon Supporter in it there, and why?
  
• The last of the cities is large and important, and already has nine known loyalists in line to be appointed, though it's not clear to what positions. This city is effectively a lost cause, but it's too valuable to not take a chance that one Valdragon supporter could make it that much easier to integrate, or at least weaken it appreciably. So where should that supporter go?
