Ok so, 3 questions:
1) Does the union organizer has to reveal their card before vote call or at the game beginning?
2) Does the union leader vote like any employee/scab?
3) Can the boss fire the union organizer?
Hey! Glad to see folks are still playing and finding this game, and finding things I missed! To answer your (extremely sensible) questions:
1) The Union Organizer reveals their card before the game begins; I don't think the game works if they don't. I suppose the game could be played with a "GM" acting as the narrator, but I think that takes away from the "party game" of it all.
2) Yes, the Union Leader is a worker and thus eligible to vote, though why they would vote no is something I'm not sure on.
3) The Boss can fire the Union Organizer, however the power passes to another worker player based on a vote. If a scab becomes the Union Organizer, the Boss et al win.
Thanks again for your questions! Hope this clarifies things. Have fun playing, let me know how it goes!
"If a scab becomes the Union Organizer, the Boss et al win."
Damn, did not see it coming.
"the game could be played with a GM"
I think Boss and Union organizer can act as a GM team.Hey! Popping by to ask you to email me [ilananight(at)gmail(dot)com] or DM me on twitter [@ilananight13] so I can send you the approval link for the TTRPG Trans Rights Texas bundle!
