The desks have been separated from their usual formation into three groups, each one labelled. To the far side of the room four desks are set aside, marked "Manticore"; in the center, "Twelve Colonies"; and closest to the door, "Earth." The sign-in sheet is on the desk. Only this time, aside from simply providing a place for the students to sign in, it also provides the role each student will play:

Manticore
Isabel (Monarch)
Peter (PM)
Luke (Military/Intel)
Carmela (Lords/Commons)

Colonies
Elizabeth (President)
Cally (Quorum)
Anders (Military/Intel)
Naomi (Press/Media)

Earth (U.S.)
Altman (President)
Parker (Secretary of State)
Schrodinger (Military/Intel)
Ray (Congress)

Press
Rory

As the bell sounded, signaling the beginning of class, Laura regarded the students with a wry smile. "Today, we begin looking at how everything fits together -- with systems that likely will never have contact with one another. Each of you has a role assignment. Your first order of business, in each cell, will be to allocate the budget accordingly. I'll collect these once you've completed them, and they will set the pace for how quickly -- or slowly -- you react to variables. Manticore and the Colonies," she said, holding up a sheet, "you'll use this sheet." She held up a different sheet, looking to the U.S. representatives. "Earthers, you'll be using this sheet.

"Rory, you'll be our resident free-agent. You'll be covering major developments across all three -- sort of like a cable news network."

She lowered the sheets and placed them on the desk behind her. "Now, get acquainted and get started. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them. I'll try to play any additional roles you find you need as the simulation progresses."

[OCD threads ~~coming~~ up. Again, extended slow play due to the late post and holiday.]

Threaded | Top-Level Comments Only

A note at the top of the sheet says, "Anyone having any troubles with their assignment should see the professor."

For discussions in the Manticoran cell.

For discussions in the Colonial cell.

For discussions in the Terran cell.

Need to make some deals under the table? This is probably the place to do it. Or it may be the place to discuss who was seen getting stood up most recently at Ching Tai...

I'll be popping on and off as "family time" and DH's Civilization IV addiction allows.

Civilization is an evil, evil game. My spouse is addicted as well.

Ray Kowalski

S.T. Anders

Ray took his spot and prepared to be Congress.

Isabel Evans

Isabel took her seat and tried to look regal.

Peter Pevensie

Peter bowed formally to Isabel before taking a seat to her right. "Your Majesty."

Anders sat and waited for his group, looking far too perplexed, yet amused, at being designated military/intelligence.

Because seriously. That was so the farthest thing from what he would ever be cut out to do.

Carmela Rodriguez

Carmela looked over the sheet with a thoughtful frown. Math? So not her strong point.

Isabel started to nod back and then stoppped. "Oh no, wait a second. I think we need to switch roles here. You're the experienced one!"

Peter grinned. "I don't think that's the way it's supposed to work."

Ooooh, I love Civ!

M.Parker

"Oh I get it now, you're going to be the power behind the throne then?" she asked.

"I shall support my queen and work for the good of our country," Peter replied with a wink.

"And I'll be sure to listen seriously to any advice you might offer," Isabel grinned.

V. Cally.
