Hey guys..

I mean, is it possible to start the game as autocracy, stack up some autocracy strategems like assassinate leader, hero of the nation etc. switch to democracy and still keep'em?

Thanks in advance..

If aprofile element (like autocracy) gets low enough you begin to have a chance to lose associated feats. The point where there is risk of loss is 10 below where you could gain the feat. For example, if you have a chance to gain a particular feat at 50 or more, then you could lose that feat at below 40.

Thanks for a quick reply.

Yes I understand that a profile element (as you call it) can be lost. I also understand how.

But what about strategems that are associated with that particular profile element? Will they be lost as well? Like if I lose Submission (50+ autocracy element) are all my "Assassinate Leader" and "Hero of the Nation" strategems that I have in the stock be lost as well?

I believe the answer is yes

The things you gain and loose for high Profile Scores are afaik called "Regime Feats".
And I am 90% sure loosing a Regime Feat looses the ability to draw the associated Cards or roll the associated Support Element.

But you should still keep any card or Support Unit already drawn.

Thanks guys..

Well I was hoping that got to keep those that I have already drawn and still be able to play'em even after I switched to a different profile, would be cool tho and fair imo, the game is hard enough already..

I think you keep already drawn cards, even if you loose the Regime Fleet. But I can not guarantee it, unfortunately.

Oke cool, non other to do and to test it, I'm just about to lose my "Submission" regime feat. I'll rapport the results.

I've had the associated strategems disappear when I've lost a regime feat.

Fairly sure you lose the stockpiled stratagems on losing the regime feat. I had a huge pile of Company cards and at least those disappeared when I lost the Commerce-60 feat that they're associated with. I would assume it applies to others too.

I've had the associated strategems disappear when I've lost a regime feat.

Pretty sure Ive seen that at least once, and I may remember the cards disappearing in an irregular trickle.
Switching and shifting slowly between characteristic focii makes sense as a constant operation.
