Hegemony: Lead Your Class to Victory – Crisis & Control

Leave out the Action cards for any class controlled by an Automa; it uses its own AI cards. Simple Mode is quicker, while Advanced Mode evaluates the board using priority cards (p. 3).

In Simple Mode, it tries the four listed actions in order, then the Special Action; if it cannot do that either, it adds 3 Voting cubes to the bag. In Advanced Mode, it performs all four checks from left to right, then attempts its highest-priority action (pp. 3–4, 6).

No. The bonus is considered when checking the first listed action, but it applies only if that action is performed; the same applies to a Legitimacy icon in a bonus or Special Action (pp. 3–4, 9).

In Advanced Mode, it chooses the policy with the highest-priority Policy card; if tied, it chooses the one closest to the row marker. After a Bill is proposed, that policy card is generally set aside for the rest of the round, with special handling if an Immediate Vote is called (p. 6).

In a 2-player game, it must have more Influence than its opponent after paying the cost, and at least as many Voting cubes in the bag. In 3- or 4-player games, its perceived side must have more Influence after paying the cost, and at least one other class must be on its side (p. 8).

During the Check IMF step, if the State has more Loans than its Fiscal Policy allows and cannot pay them off, resolve the revealed Crisis Response card instead of the main game’s IMF instructions. Then set that card aside and reveal a new one (p. 14).
