Герой или группа героев, в чьи руки попала тщательно скрываемая правительством тайна, с боями и потерями прорываются в медиа-центр, чтоб по всем каналам сообщить миру, что правительство — оно на самом деле антинародное и вообще.

И все поверили, щазззз...

(Да, telkon, это я «Миссию Серенити» посмотрела. Ну и лажа же: штамп на штампе сидит и штампом погоняет. Только герои с их шуточками и спасают.)

The Anglo-Sino Alliance is the governing
body for the entire system. Originally formed
between the two first-settled planets, Londinum
and Sihnon (where the “Anglo” and “Sino”
come from), the Alliance is rich and powerful,
with resources that most folk can’t begin to
imagine—manpower, intelligence-gathering, military
might, and technological innovation. And, like an
overprotective parent, it thinks it knows what’s best
for its “children”—all those who live and work
under its rule. The Alliance government believes
that by controlling information, technologies and
even people’s lives, they can forge a better ‘Verse,
one where people live in peace and no one ever goes
hungry. Some call this Utopia. Others call it hell.
Londinum is the formal seat of government,
home to Parliament and the Prime Minister. While
every planet (at least within the Core) is allowed
to organize its own affairs on a planetary level,
system-wide policy is set by legislation. The planet
of Sihnon is home to the headquarters of the trade
associations and guilds in the system. The most
powerful of these have their academies here. Trade
tariffs for all manner of goods are established in
Sihnon’s bureaucratic halls.
Most people of the Alliance are allowed a say in
their government. Anyone can stand for a seat in
the Parliament and be voted in by the home folk.
But the money required to run a campaign generally
prevents the common man from ever winning a
governmental position. To raise the necessary funds,
one must make deals with businesses, guilds, and
private interest groups. As to voting, only those who
are “full citizens of the Alliance” actually get a vote.
Folk who fought in or supported the Independents
are not considered “full citizens.” (After all, if
they couldn’t be trusted to fight for the right side,
how could they be trusted to vote for the right
candidate?) Thus only candidates who support the
Alliance are ever elected. That law is due to expire
after ten years, though there are some on the Core
worlds who are pushing for it to be extended.
Since the Alliance can’t be everywhere at once
(not for lack of trying!), it has to trust the local
governors to do the right thing. Each Core world
under Alliance control has a governor who holds
a vast amount of power. The Alliance has given
guidelines on how such a person is elected, but out
of respect for the sovereignty of each world policies
vary from place to place. Some Core worlds are
fairly ruled by honest folk. On others, local political
machines or long-standing family dynasties rule.

Кстати, а можно ссылочку на гайд? Я его с удовольствием почитаю.

Сложно сказать, способна ли существовать описанная здесь государственная система. Как это часто бывает у ролевиков (особенно у западных настольников) картинка получилась очень уж неполной. Черт его знает, короче говоря.

Пи Эс - государственное устройство по этому гиду, это приблизительно то, чего добивается нынешний президент Штатов и его сторонники.

У меня в PDF скан книги.
Вообще, наверняка где-нито выкладывали текстом, но я не искал.

А большой файл? Вы не могли бы его кудой-нибудь саплоудить?
