Hereditary HoSs proposing cabinets?

[EEL123]

I used to play in Zardugal, so I do retain a keen interest in what happens there. I recently noticed that the ruling party (the CRP) changed the constitution so that a) the head of state is now hereditary, and b) only the head of state can propose a cabinet. Given that hereditary heads of state can't be played by a party (except in RP), how does this work?

It locks the cabinet, and turns regime change into a supermajority issue.
You can't change either law without a 2/3 supermajority, so as long as the loyalists have 1/3 of the seats, they remain in power.

It's a fun way to RP a dictatorship.

I saw it being done in Likatonia, and we experimented with it in Beluzia.

We set up a pro-Royalist cabinet, and staged a coup: http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill. ... lid=349270
At the time, the law already existed that only the HoS could propose a cabinet. We knew what it would do, which is why it was done (lock the Stantons out of the cabinet).
We couldn't be annoyed to propose a cabinet, because one was already in place

Why would you want to do that? You don't even control the cabinet.

He controls Foreign Affairs and Defence.
I assume the HoG is on his side as well.

They have more control of the legislature, now, than they might have after the next election. I see a lot of parties in Badara.

Good point.
