There's so much going on here thematically, and the whole thing is just so WITTY and WACKY. Cole has a great writeup below when it comes to mechanics, so I'm not gonna focus on em as if they are to be a balanced and core faction 😆. 

Cause the way I see these guys is PUMP UP THE WEIRD. Like the existence of state partnership as a concept is so funny to me. They seem so fun to play and their mechanics are so out there, that I would almost wanna commit to a game with them as a guest fan faction just to see how fresh they make things. Awesome work!

Very unique, I love the quotes lol.

My first user complaint is the randomness of the state partnership, making that a solid number, either 1 or 2 victory points per warrior of them, but not a random roll. 

My other complaint is the weakness of the sign up bonuses. If an opponent is playing to win, they will never use them, because they just aren’t that strong. And they are very faction dependent. By placing a warrior into Clash of Clearings (lol) suddenly woodland alliance gets a stronghold on turn 1. That is the only good signup bonus and only maybe 2 factions would use it. And if no one is signing up, the faction will be so weak to be unplayable. Maybe add some way for you to add extra beavelopers, and if there is one, I didn’t see it. You start the game with 11 warriors, you can go down to ten for the extra actions. Additionally, there are only 2 real actions that you can sacrifice and never do again: crafting and drawing cards, so if no one signs up, you can only have 2 warriors on 2 apptions. I think making a way for you to add beavelopers (maybe in another apption so you can use it a couple times and then sacrifice it, since you’ll never need it again) would be a necessary buff to get around other players trying to win and giving you no signups.

Nonetheless, funny and a good idea. Very fun!
