The Toronto Mayor Race β "Get It Doneβ¦ to each other."
242 cards of municipal bloodsport. A work of satire β every faction gets roasted equally,
as the Charter intended. Scandals are absurdist; any resemblance to real gravy is coincidental.

Pick one. The other two will be leaked to the press out of spite.
THE FULL BALLOT
β HOW TO WIN CITY HALL
π³οΈ Grind your rival's Voter Support from 30 to 0 before election night does it to you.
π° Political Capital: turn N grants N capital (max 10), refilled each turn.
β Campaigners have Spin (attack) and Resolve (health). Click yours, then a target. Combatants hit each other; heroes don't hit back.
π Fresh campaigners are filing nomination papers β no attacking until next turn, unless they have β‘ Momentum.
π‘ Front-Runner: enemies must attack Front-Runners first. Media law.
π° Fundraiser: combat damage this campaigner deals also restores your Support.
π Spin Doctor: while on the board, your damage spells hit harder.
π On Message: fires the moment the campaigner is deployed (watch for the gold flash). Concession: effect when defeated.
π³οΈ Patronage: power now, a Liability shuffled into a deck. When drawn, the scandal breaks β it costs Support and your draw.
ποΈ News Cycle: every 3rd turn a headline hits BOTH campaigns. Tomorrow's front page is telegraphed in the ticker β plan around it.
πΈ Hero Power (2 capital, once/turn): Bradford buffs a campaigner; Chow summons an Ally.
π₯± Empty deck β Voter Fatigue: escalating damage. The electorate is tired.
π The Long Campaign: 4 escalating elections, one deck. Win a round β draft an Endorsement (permanent, stacking run modifier), recruit a card, cut a card. Later rounds have turn-limit mandates and Crunch Time (hero damage +1 late). Lose once and the run ends β the news cycle is unforgiving.
β¨οΈ Space/Enter: end turn. Esc: cancel targeting / close windows.
