So apparently, in 1978, several high ranking officers in the Spanish Army concocted a plan to launch a military coup as the country was making the transition out of Franco-esque fascism and into democracy.
Unknown to some of the officers, two of the junior lieutenants that they included in the original plan were opposed to the idea and went to reliable superiors. The conspirators were arrested and the coup attempt was foiled, but one interesting bit of forethought to Galaxia was that they were planning on launching the coup in mid-November of 1978, when the King of Spain was away in South America.
For those of you who may not know, King Juan Carlos was a big help to the anti-putschists in 1981 when he spoke out against them. Taking him off the board is a very interesting addition.
I just figured folks would like to know about this.
