Convene a Board Meeting of the Great Hellbound Railway
A player-created Guide is available for this content: Railway Board (Guide) |
Spoiler warning! This page contains details about Fallen London Actions. |
Game Instructions: Getting the Board together takes time. During any given meeting, you can vote on multiple agenda items: you might remove board members and take a decision about the next activity of the railway in a single meeting, for instance. Once you conclude a session, however, you will not be able to reconvene until after your next visit from Time the Healer, so you may want to wait to gather several agenda items before you begin.
Unlocked with a redirect from Recommend a Board Member, Into the Boardroom, or Review the Agenda
Wiki note: In addition to checking the prerequisites for agendas, consider this guide about opposition from board members carefully; having stiff opposition from specific board members can be very unpleasant. Also, do remember that before you pick any agendas, you can still leave the boardroom without calling for a meeting.
