So You Want to Rule Like a Yankee Lobster Baron? A Guide to New England in Kaiserredux
Ah, New England. Land of chowder, clam chowder, and even more chowder (seriously, those folks love their watery meals). But in Kaiserredux, forget clam bakes and cozy fireplaces – it's time to build a nation (or reclaim one, depending on who you ask)! This guide will have you transforming from a quaint fishing village to a regional powerhouse, all while dodging rogue Lovecraftian horrors (because of course there are Lovecraftian horrors).

Step 1: Becoming a Free Nation (the Fun Part)
First things first, you gotta break free from Canada's chilly embrace. There are two ways to achieve this glorious independence:
The "We're Taking Our Lobsters and Going Home" Method: Play as the USA (because who better to understand the yearning for freedom, right?) In the game rules, make sure glorious New England gets released by Canada. Then, stick with the good ol' Feds until the glorious moment of liberation arrives. Choose New England in the event pop-up, and BAM! You're free (and probably a little hangry from all that government cheese).
The "Sorry We Colonized You, Eh?" Method: Take control of the mighty Canada. Conquer those plucky New Englanders (don't worry, they secretly crave maple syrup) sometime around March 1937. Then, with a tear in your eye and a Tim Hortons cup in hand, select the focus to release them. They might hold a grudge about the whole conquering thing, but hey, at least they're free (and maybe a little grateful for the universal healthcare).
Important Note: Whichever method you choose, be prepared for some early game wobbles. New England starts out a bit…well, weak. But fear not, with some Yankee ingenuity (and maybe a deal with a friendly neighborhood Elder Thing), you'll be a force to be reckoned with!
Step 2: Decisions, Decisions (Where the Lobster Gets Spicy)
Now that you're independent, it's time to decide what kind of New England you want to build. Here's where things get interesting:
Tip: Be mindful — one idea at a time.
Republican Dream: Become the beacon of democracy in a world gone wild! Just be prepared to deal with those pesky socialists and maybe a rogue Cthulhu cult (because apparently, those guys are everywhere).
Monarchy is Back, Baby!: Restore the glory of a New England kingdom! Will you choose a Washingtonian descendant, a Lovecraftian horror with surprisingly good manners (seriously, this is an option!), or maybe even a charismatic cult leader? The possibilities are endless (and slightly terrifying).
The Businessman's Paradise: Turn New England into a capitalist haven! Flood the market with textiles, exploit those natural resources (oysters are the new gold!), and maybe even become the world's leading supplier of artisanal mustache wax. Just watch out for angry unions and socialist uprisings (because apparently, everyone hates working in a mustache wax factory).
Remember: These are just a few paths. New England has a ton of events and focuses to explore, so get out there and make your mark on the world (or at least make sure everyone has decent dental hygiene thanks to your mustache wax empire)!
