OOC question/thought:

Given the scarcity of influence, isn't this scenario -- where it's likely that either candidate will die of old age before completing even half a term -- one that's tailor made for letting fate decide the leader?

On paper, neither set of traits seems to be incredibly superior to the other at this stage of the game (more importantly, I don't see either having severe negative traits).

Am I missing something, in terms of game mechanics? Is influence less scarce than I think? Or is 8+ years worth of influence really that easily disposable? (cause 8 years is merely a blink of a few turns?)

[/ooc]
