This would open up the possibility of debates or interviews focusing on specific issues (with a chance that an interviewer will throw in some unexpected question that could catch the candidate off-guard, like something on foreign policy when they’re expecting questions on domestic policy). There’s a slight wrinkle, in that issues have profiles, so the overall score would probably be weighted by issue profiles. A campaign designer could decide to make them all the same, or customize as many as they like, so it wouldn’t add more work as far as design goes. Alternately, the overall score could be the average, rounded down, say. Having done this, overall IF would simply be an aggregate of the individual issue familiarity scores. So, instead of it being 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, it could be 3.4, or 4.7, and so on. Thinking this through, we could switch Personal Attributes to decimals. It would have to implemented in a way that adds nuance without a significant amount of complexity for the player, though.
