The Editor player is attempting to connect two face-up Informants to the President on the pinboard, by a route of face-up Evidence tokens. The Nixon Administration player is trying to make it to the end of the term (by collecting 5 Momentum tokens) without that happening.

==Each round==

Players draw a hand of cards (whoever has the Initiative gets one extra card and starts the round). Nixon draws three random evidence tokens and places them face-down in the middle space of the Research Track. The Initiative and Momentum tokens start in the same space.

Players take turns to play and resolve one card from their hand. You can either use a card for its '''Value''' (moving a token towards you on the Research Track, of the type and by the number of spaces shown) or its described '''Action'''.

When all cards are played, each player takes the tokens on their side of the track; tokens on space zero are removed without being won. (If a token is moved to a player's 5 space of the Research Track during the round, that player takes it immediately.) Taken evidence is placed on the pinboard, face-up by the Editor and face-down by the Administration. Momentum tokens are kept by the player. Whoever gets the Initiative token starts the next round.
