Party To Treason 2: Valdragon's Coup

[Kennifer]

Juniper's Plan

• 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?
  
  "Not to be a broken record, but I'd put the Town Comptroller here. Money might not talk as much here as it does at home, but apparently it talks enough to be embezzled. An official who can track down the embezzled funds can help find who's embezzling them."
  
  
• 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?
  
  "It might not be important, but there could be records of something going on. Especially if it's isolated. So I'll send the Archivist here. They could figure out why it's suddenly important enough to be on the radar."
  
  
• 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?
  
  "Perfectly average places often have things going on behind the scenes, don't they? I mean there's got to be some reason it's being targeted for a Purge. Someone like a Labor and Logistics Representative might be able to find out what's going on with the common people, the workers. Workers often have complaints about higher-ups, as I've seen first hand."
  
  
• 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?
  
  "I'd place the Ombudsperson here. Address complaints about the new appointees directly and try to get them taken down."
