Looking for a blueprint to win as “Giant Meteor”

from PolMach Forums

Hey all! Been trying (and failing) to win as Giant Meteor on the “Masochistic” (hardest) skill level. I found it relatively easy to win as Massive Comet, but I think that’s because there are fewer states to be concerned about as a Democrat. With the Republican Giant Meteor, there are too many states to worry about and I find myself stretched too thin as the Democratic candidate can simply attack the states where I’m weak.

Has anybody found success as Giant Meteor at the hardest level? Can you share an overview of your general strategy? Thanks!

Finally won as Meteor. I'm not sure how many games I played, but finally pulled it off! I think it requires persistence and a little bit of luck to finally get it done.

Won the electoral college 274-264. Lost the popular vote 66.46M to 86.06M. (I think that would set a US record for biggest popular vote deficit while still winning the election, even outdoing John Quincy Adams's 10.5% deficit!)
