| A brief summary doesn't take much more time that just playing the turn. A "full, comprehensive report" would take almost as long as the turn playing itself to put together, which is debilitating since I haven't had the time to even play the latest turn yet (making the attempt tonight). Yep, I agree with mongoose, it should say "Brief Summary". All we need is some kind of idea on what direction the pres will head in the next 10 turns. Heck, if something important crops up, he won't even be playing all 10 turns before needing to consult the senate anyway. I don't think we really need more than a bullet list or a paragraph or two at this stage, it might get a little longer as our Civ grows though. If the Senate needs clarification on something, the President can always elaborate in the relevant thread.  |

| 4a. In addition, the President must request the Senate's authorization to continue play, after delivering a full comprehensive report. In this request, he will include a summary of his plans regarding foreign affairs, city production, and unit orders for those 10 turns.
I see Goose.
I didn't mean for it to sound like we were requesting a second report from you. The idea was, that after the normal 10 turn report, you are required to submit a request in the form of a brief summary. The 'comprehensive report' was quoted from the above article it was to follow:
4. The President must deliver a full and comprehensive report before the People and the Senate after every period of ten turns, or when he reaches a point where a decision of the People, the Senate, or the Supreme Court is required to continue play, whichever may come first.
But yes, as CD said in the above post, the main thing is that the senate should have some brief sense of direction beforehand. My apologies about the wording, I'll edit it and remove the mention of the above article and include "brief summary."
Would this be better?
