pesos in order of decreasing probability. Thus, the President may draw between 8 and 24 million pesos on a given turn. El Presidente then assigns the budget by declaring how much money each player is intended to receive. Only the President knows the amount drawn, but must reveal how much each other player is intended to be given. The budget is then voted on. If the budget fails the President keeps all the money, unless the Minister forces the budget to pass. Forcing the budget to pass has the effect of distributing the foreign aid money as if the budget had passed, consolidating the police units in the Chamber of Deputies, and making a coup justified that turn. Assassination phase A round of assassinations takes place. First each player chooses his location using the location tiles in a secret yet binding fashion. Locations are as follows: Home (causes the player to be killed if a "burglars" assassination card is played against him) Mistress (leaves a player vulnerable to a "character assassination" card) Nightclub Headquarters (allows the player to start a coup without an excuse) Bank (allows the player to access his Swiss bank account, should he survive to the banking phase) Then each player declares their assassinations. The Minister of Internal Security gets to use the secret police for one assassination and any player may order one with an assassination card. To declare an assassination, a player must name the player who is the target and the location at which the assassination will be attempted. Once all assassinations are declared, they are resolved in order. An assassination is successful if a player's location is guessed correctly, although some assassination cards require a successful dice roll as well and some cards may be used to thwart an assassination. If multiple assassination attempts are declared against a single player, they are resolved in the order they were declared (a player cannot be killed more than once). An assassinated player discards their hand, turns over their cash to the assassin, and is inactive for the rest of the turn. Assassinations are transitive: if A assassinates B and B assassinates C, A gets both B and C's money. If players kill each other — assassinates B and B assassinates A – then both players' money is discarded to the bottom of the foreign aid deck (under the blanks). The same holds true for larger
