Summary0014388: Andor - Starting new parties
DescriptionProposed - with sufficient credits & time, players can introduce new parties (i.e. those not randomly selected for this playthrough) into Andor politics.

Easy implementation - allow speechmaking for ~all~ potential andor politics, let the player eventually build the seat level up to majority.

More challenging implementation - have a separate function whereby the player can do a hostile action (carpetbagging/foreign money in politics) to sponsor one of the non-selected parties. Either the lowest ranked party drops out, or this new one is added to the list, at the cost of time, credits, and influence.

It would be nice if Federalists are always present in Andoran politics. Alternatively, all parties could be present, but only X major parties (after each election) are visible, the other's being lumped into an Other Affiliation Category.

I like this idea, but I fear it might make the Andor too useful. The Pacifiers are already super-important, though I'm not sure how much of that is because of how eager races are to start wars.

Yeah, in my current game I lost 20 months twice trying to raise cash in AFA missions to get the Boarines in the Fed and both times I finally showed back up on the scene to have my Fedies attacking them :( Andor Pacifiers to the rescue!

Can't you make the speach to weaken a party (like the bottom one) and have them fall off the list? I could've swarn I had the federationalists show up later in a game. But maybe I started a new one and my brain is just playing tricks on me.
