Clout and Capital Posted on Tuesday, June 24, 2008 I think the capital system works fairly good, with a well-rounded supply of agents as far as higher difficultys go. The clout however feels like a race just to get your own endorsments, and does little but an awareness bonus afterwards. There needs to be a way to funnel this extra clout into something. Maybe extra television appearences, which could be useful in the later broker stages of the game.
