I'm waiting for the inevitable revolution to spring from the carcass of this greedy oligarchy.

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

I graciously spend a portion of my finances on an old soap box for one of the peasants to stand on.  Their power goes up by one.

TURN TWO

TURNTURNTURN
Clearing a swathe of woodland to make way for new farms is popular with both people who work the land and people who own the land. The extra tax revenue doesn't go amiss either.

---

An omen! A three-legged owl was sighted in the countryside, which is definitely a good thing, probably. Athena's priests claim it means we have her favour- a fleeting thing, best exploited right away.
Options (not mutually exclusive):
-Organise a big sacrifice to Athena! (Costs 1000d from Treasury)
-Strategically declare war on our neighbour! (Costs 1000d from Treasury)

((It's an Event! In this case, there are two options available. You can vote to Support or Veto them individually. If nobody votes in Support at all, it will be Ignored, which will have no impact on Class Mood or Popularity (unless specified otherwise in the event). In this case, neither option requires Bureaucratic Capacity (other Events might have options that do).
You can take a guess as to what these options will do, and what the Classes think about them. Whether you guessed correctly will be revealed next turn.
For example, if you choose to Veto option A, it won't have any immediate impact on your Popularity, or the Polis. But next turn, I will announce that "Class X Hated Option A", which would mean you earn 1 Popularity with Class X, and Class X will gain 1 Mood. I will also reveal what effect passing (or not passing, in some cases) the option had.))



POLIS ACTIONS:
Proposed: Agriculture, Commerce, War, Temples, Sponsor
Vetoed: Commerce, War, Temples, Sponsor
   Commoners, Nobles: +1 Mood from Temples vetoed. Merchants, Soldiers: net +0 from Commerce and Sponsor vetoed.
Passed: Agriculture
   Commoners, Nobles: +1 Mood from Agriculture passed. Commoners: +1 Power from Agriculture. +1000 treasury.

PLAYER ACTIONS:
Commoners Mood reduced by 2
Commoners Power increased by 1
Nobles Mood reduced by 1

OLIGARCHY EFFECTS:
All Classes Mood reduced by 1
Nobles Power increased by 1



STATE OF THE POLIS
Treasury: 6000d (+1000)
Prestige: 1.0

CLASSES
Class| Mood| Power| Loved Campaign| Hated Campaign
Commoners|   6(-1)|   4(+2)| Commerce| War
Merchants|   6(-1)|   2   | Commerce| Sponsor
Soldiers|   6(-1)|   2   | War| Agriculture
Priests|   6(-1)|   2   | Temples| Sponsor
Nobles|   7   |   3(+1)| Commerce| War

Damnit people, this is why I said to keep the truce. Because now everyone's ganging up on the cats.
Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.

Rewind, can't keep going
My mind keeps replaying
