National Debuffs (Pick Two or Three):Las Vegas Blues: The terrorist attack on Vegas was an operation supported by a rogue element within the PRA, this has resulted in a series of purges from the party and the attempt to keep the fact the PRA had such effective explosives.

Training Divide: In the PRA there is a clear divide in the ranks, on one side are the Highly trained and equipped units such as the Red and Black Guards, the Green Mountain Boys, and the Revolutionary Marines. Then there is the poorly supplied and trained IWW Militias and Revolutionary Brigades,such as the Abe Lincoln or John Brown Brigades.

History: The NRP was founded on May 1st 1920 by Eugene Debs, John Reed, Joe Hill, and Elizabeth Gurley Flynn. Its purpose, to unite all left wing organizations and parties into one united front and hopefully to launch a Political Revolution. The NRP has early successes in the Midwest and New England, the biggest of which was the New York Governor Race of 1930, where Elizabeth Flynn beat the highly successful Franklin Delano Roosevelt by a 5% lead. Since then the Party has won 7 more Governor races and even more senator and congress races.
In 1932 Smedly Butler, a Brigadier General in the Marine Corps, joined the NRP out of many of his colleagues' confusion. This worried many in the US Army High Command, for they thought that Smedly would use his experience to train the PRA for a war against the US, so on July 5th 1932, Brigadier General Smedly Butler was discharged from the US Marines. This caused uproar not only by the NRP but also by Enlisted or former Marines, who respected Butler for his career and how he prioritized his men’s lives above anything. This resulted in 5,000 Marines declaring a mutiny in New York Harbor, This mutiny lasted two weeks, and finally ended when Butler asked the Marines to abandon the mutiny.
After the Mutiny, Butler announced he would run for the Chairmanship of the Central Committee, which after a shorter than usual campaign, he won in a landslide. After this he secretly enacted the centralization of the PRA and the operations to secure weapons from underground sources. Now Butler has to face his biggest challenge as Chairman, the Presidential Candidacy, alongside dealing with the actions of the NRP’s former allies, the Communist Party of America.
