Cannot access Adobe Air

2013-01-24T21:27:05Z

No matter how many times or links I try, I cannot get the Adobe site to open to download Air. Every time I get a “page cannot be displayed” or “network timed out” page. Any suggestions as to why? or how to fix this?

Problems with the scenario builder

2012-11-02T00:21:36Z

I’m trying to create a scenario using the scenario-buider and am experiencing problems. How do I get the tactics to work? I’ve created them using the scenario-builder program, but whenever I go play the game, none of them are available to use.

How to turn off the horrible Russian UI translation?

2012-08-26T02:29:13Z

Hi!
I run the game on a Russian install of Windows XP. Is it possible to force disable the language autodetection and have the whole thing in the single default English locale? The English-Russian mixture is very silly, distracting and generally ridiculous.

tutorial no next day

2011-03-15T16:14:38Z

I downloaded the game and entered the tutorial but can’t get past the first window. It said to click on “next day” in the main view but i don’t see it or have that. There is nothing at the bottom of my game play window and I can’t do anything except click on the calendar, map, etc. in the beginning room. Can someone please help with this?

People Power v. f40 Doesn’t Install

2011-03-11T17:08:44Z

Hi there. I downloaded the latest version of PP, f40, and tried to install it, but AIR reported an error in application configuration. The older version worked ok.

I use Windows 7 Professional 32-bit.

Brybury Coast Scenario Bug

2011-02-27T09:33:47Z

Possible spoiler below.

I just got to Oct 14 in the Brybury Coast scenario, and both parties won. The newspaper report said that the Progressive Party Won, but my calendar also said that the Peasants Party won. I also got a message saying that the peasants had won and that I was not able to persuade them to do something about the anti-corruption commission.

Persuade tactic in Brybury Coast Scenario

2011-02-27T09:23:41Z

When one of my agents has scheduled ‘Persuade’ as a tactic (in this case Bob Rock targetting Mark Churl) then until the date where that is scheduled, it is impossible to schedule any new tactics other than ‘persuade’. Is this meant to be the case?

Pourinian Occupation

2011-02-26T15:11:58Z

Just started reading through the info for the Pourinian Occupation scenario. Under the people and places, the movement is referred to as the Kwiets and the Regime Bhourland… a left over from an older scenario. Cool story so far though!

Tutorial Broken?

2011-02-06T13:23:18Z

Hello there! I was asked to play this game at the request of the Wisconsin Network for Peace and Justice. I’ve been a video game addict for 25 years and I run (with two other guys) a site called VeteranGamers.

I’m excited to play this game, since it appears to combine two things I love—video games and progressive political action. The construction of the game looks sound enough (based on a mere half-hour of play so far), but I wonder if the tutorial is broken. (This, obviously, is a huge stumbling to me—and others, I expect—wanting to play it more.)

The Details: In the tutorial, on game date 4/25/09, I was instructed to schedule a Fundraising tactic for a recycling group in the “Trendy Ranch” part of Smithville. Alas, the only option I saw on the Tactics List was “Ask for Support” from the Business Association. I tried this (thinking perhaps the tutorial developer had merely left out a step), and received a newspaper headline announcing that the movement was growing. (The green Momentum box in the top-left corner went from 3 to 11.)

Now there is nothing available in the Tactics List. I’m really not sure what to do, since the Tutorial is trying to take me down a path that I—apparently—cannot travel.

I want to help fix this (and any other problems I encounter), for two reasons: One, I want to see it succeed because it seems like a very worthwhile contribution to the world of strategy games. And Two, I paid $10 and I want my money’s worth, heh!

If I’ve done something wrong, please let me know. If the tutorial is indeed broken, please let me know when I can find an updated version to try again.

Thanks for your hard work on this project!
