Quick rules question: I have the Defensas Sociales, which causes a regime change when 'first played'. If the card were to come back to my hand (say, if the thing it was extorting got nationalized somehow), would it cause another regime change when it comes back out?

If the card were to come back to my hand (say, if the thing it was extorting got nationalized somehow), would it cause another regime change when it comes back out? There are very few cases (Zapata?) when a card goes to your hand. For example, if the enterprise you are extorting is nationalised you can either discard the troop or turn your Hacendado to his white side (if he has one), pay the deployment cost and assign them as his personal army. Because Mr. Carranza doesn't have a White (Command) side, you'd be forced to discard them. But in case it ever goes to your hand, yeah. Next time you play it it causes the regime change again. Or at least that's how I understand it. Rulebook This is as good moment as any to say that, unless someone has strong feelings about it, we're not using optional rules (f.e. the rule that states that units defeated by other units of the same colour can be retreated instead of disbanded.)

I think I need another quick read over the rule book.

Going to spend all my moneys this turn. Buying the San Germán Tannery for 2, the playing it for the remaining 5. Only generals dressed in leather become great generals. Third action is spent getting to know whoever is supplying that mercenary artillery for 0 gold. Got a feeling things might start to heat up.

Second round, bobvonunheil's Turn Last Headline Discarded: None While other players in the political scene contacted less than respectable members of society, General Reyes travelled to Sonora in order to meet Adolfo de la Huerta, manager of San German Tannery.

Ok, I'm an idiot so this and this look pretty much the same to me. The second one is the one that should be in the graphic.

Fourth round, Tekopo's Turn Francisco Madero continues to expand his interest in Chihuahua, this time acquiring a majority share in Hacienda Santa Gertrudis. This Henequen plantation is one of the biggest in the region, employing 80 peones and their families. Madero expects that the growing demand of mooring rope, heavily dependant on Henequen fibres, will increase the profits of the industry, as well as improve the quality of life of the workers in the surrounding area.
