I like it! Powerful and flavourful. (In most sets it'd be green, but I appreciate this set has rather different colour requirements than most.)

Green? Alex's encylopaedic knowledge is slipping!

We are all Keldon Warlord! (Also; truly terrifying socialist goblins ahoy!)

There's Keldon Warlord and Battle Squadron from back in the day, but more recently there's Scion of the Wild, Elder of Laurels, Wayfaring Temple, Crusader of Odric, Geist-Honored Monk... wait, you're right, I was wrong to say it's green. It's actually white. The power of the group is what modern white is all about. Green gets individually large things, but white is the colour that gains power from having lots of allies around it. OK, this should actually be white.

Yeah, it sure feels very green, but as +X/+0 wouldn't fit the flavour and red likes to try things that are fun and games I think it is quite right as it is. Except, maybe it should cost (1) more...

Socialism itself is quite white.

Yeah, socialism is super white.

IIRC this set deliberately shifted the colours to map onto powers in WWII (black=germany, white=USA, red=USSR, green=frace, blue=Japan), so there are some cards that fit the colour pie for this set, not the normal colour pie.

That said, it might make more sense to make USA=red, USSR=white.

I think maybe the socialist revolution had a lot of red as well, being a passion for change and justice, but socialism as a concept (either good socialism, or what-stalin-called-socialism) is white.

I'd just like to say that I find it funny when the Recent Updates pages says things like "Jack V commented on Socialism".
