While I’m on the topic of Silver Shogunate, though, I had a good bad idea. The players go to great lengths to gather the best possible intelligence on the state of affairs in Nevada. They help the resistance develop plans for training and building their force as well as carrying the war to the Shogun. Perhaps an airship out of Colorado can make a drop of supplies out in the Nevada hinterlands. Then the Shogun makes common cause with Milgov. He gets to be governor-general of Nevada with Milgov’s blessing in return for protecting road and rail traffic across Nevada. Some sort of system is worked out so that he has a certain latitude of action while effectively being enfeoffed to Milgov. The resistance doesn’t go along with the new scheme, and the players are ordered to aid in the destruction of the resistance.
Sometimes, I'm not sure I like myself.
