	Where disputes do occur, the first resort of most Reformists is a battle of words. These are often spectacular affairs, as the opposing sides exchange a barrage of propaganda and polemics, written on posters and pamphlets, sung by bands of revolutionaries, and shouted on street corners. Often the smaller, less popular, or less well-funded side will back down, but reversals do occur as public opinion shifts and new leaders flex their rhetorical muscles.

	If words aren’t enough threats often follow - and they are frequently backed up with action.

[[The Reform Coalition]] is a faction united in name only, as different [[The Reform Coalition ideologies|schools of thought]] compete constantly for support, resources, and influence. The only thing they definitely have in common is their opposition to the status quo and particularly to the dominance of [[the Noble Houses]].

The individual groups within the Coalition are nonetheless well aware that their greatest threats are external and as such they mostly try to avoid too much internal conflict.

==== Leadership ====

Each Reformist cell or group chooses its own leader. This might seem like a simple statement but it is complicated by the way that each one has a different mechanism for doing so. Many groups vote for a leader (using any of a number of voting systems), while others consider themselves coequals, or are dominated by an unofficial clique or a single charismatic individual. Larger organisations may have a more distributed official leadership with a number of key positions such as Secretary and Treasurer.

How membership in a given cell works is also very varied. In some cases members are expected to pay dues, carry a card, or openly wear insignia. Other groups, especially those based in the countryside, are more fluid and tend to consist of whoever felt like turning up on any given day.

==== Internal disputes ====

If their ideologies are close enough, different organisations often work together directly. In some cases this is strictly unofficial, but in others it can be formalised with written agreements or regular meetings. It’s not unheard-of for joint committees and councils to be formed, and this can lead to two or more groups merging.
