So In my first playthrough I picked Bradley, but part of me regrets this and thinks I should have gone with the Moshae. Do any of you agree with my choice, and who did you pick and why?

I picked August Bradley because he seemed the best choice to represent everyone equally.
The Moshae, the Salarian Pathfinder, and Morda all seem like they will represent their group over the other groups. Meanwhile August Bradley has friendly relations with all the various groups so is a guy in the middle of them.

I picked the Moshae. We'd discussed what the future held for her, previously; and I trusted her to give everyone an equal voice, not just the angara. It also felt worthwhile to immediately include the angara in the governance of Hyperion-Meridian, in the spirit of the Citadel Council.
I'd have considered Raeka, as well, had she been alive in my playthrough. I can only assume she was an option. It would be a shame to pull her away from pathfinding and "sciencing" the crap out of Heleus, though.
None of the other candidates felt up to the task, except maybe Hejyr (?), the salarian Pathfinder. Again, though, let him learn that job, instead of giving him a third in the matter of weeks.
Lastly, it ended up being childishly satisfying that I put Tann into a twist with my choice. With all of the stupid crap he's done, despite good intentions, his disapproval is a most welcome endorsement.

My gut choice was the Moshae so I went with that but I'll have a few pts with Morda. The krogan deserve it. Sadly the Moshae has the same disapproving (almost hostile) lines if you pick anyone else. I don't know if it will affect the AI-angara relations in the sequel. Probably not since BW will likely pick a canon choice for the story. Anyway no for Bradley because he has his hands full with Eos and no for the salarian pathfinder because fk Tann.

My gut choice was the Moshae so I went with that but I'll have a few pts with Morda. The krogan deserve it. Sadly the Moshae has the same disapproving (almost hostile) lines if you pick anyone else.

Anyway no for Bradley because he has his hands full with Eos and no for the salarian pathfinder because fk Tann. Morda would be enjoyable, on some level. She is much more friendly and willing to work toward the Initiative's goals than the game conveyed. She truly believed in the fresh start in Andromeda, which is why she moved her entire clan. I considered her, momentarily; but then I recalled her joyful demeanor during the slaughter on the Nexus. The krogan deserve a seat at the table, but I'd not give her the seat at the table. Let her prove how cooperative and diplomatic she really wants to be, first.

I'm totally pissed of at this section of the game. Throughout my journey in Andromeda I ALWAYS when possible chose the pro-Krogan option.... Yet only because I went along and picked the Salarian Pathfinder.... (the replacement) Kesh says something like: Now we know what you really think about the Krogan, I have nothing more to say to you....... WHAAAAAAAAT?!
So al I have done for your people is overturned simply by choosing an INTERIM Ambassador? Fuck you Kesh.
I didn't pick Bradly, because it would seem I'd be picking favourites, didn't pick the Moshea because I didn't want to pick a spiritual leader, didn't pick the Krogan since they proved unstable....
Fuck you Kesh.

What am I doing wrong?

1st playthrough, chose moosea 2nd playthrough, chose Bradley 3rd playthrough, chose Raeka Maybe my next playthrough I will choose Morda I chose Raeka and it made me hate Kesh. Raeka is very skilled and qualified and a pathfinder not just some random salarian and not some racist like Tann. Kesh came across as very racist for that.

On my first Ryder I chose Morda because she lived for trolling Tann. Drack laughed and was so surprised I picked a Krogan, especially Morda, and that he couldn't be prouder to call me a friend. Bradley raised an eyebrow at possible Krogan protocol because he can't bare-knuckle like he used to. Morda just grunted when I went back to talk to her. Bradley would probably be my preferred pick, but I couldn't resist the absurdity of Morda.

Raeka. she is the boss honestly. even Alec relied on her mentally which she counts as a compliment of course. Moshae seems like another good choice but there is something fishy about her (pun intended). Viviene's voice actress fits her i guess. i skipped some of her dialogues though to be honest lol.

So In my first playthrough I picked Bradley, but part of me regrets this and thinks I should have gone with the Moshae. Do any of you agree with my choice, and who did you pick and why? I felt the Moshae was the most logical and reasoned choice. Especially since the Initiative is made up of foreigners to the Andromeda galaxy, it's only fair that the Angara have a say in how this new community of races will form. I also believe that the Moshae would be the most fair and reasonable choice among the candidates with the least amount of bias. Bradley would have been my second choice. However, I'm not sure he would have been up for the task of representing the entire cluster when his only experience was handling one, small settlement. I also didn't want to come across as if humanity was running the show, as I believe inclusion and diversity is important, especially for rebuilding the Heleus Cluster. Morda was never a serious consideration and I felt the Salarian Pathfinder is better suited for the position she already inhabits.

I was so disappointed that Tann wasn't an option.
I wanted to see a train-wreck where that beautiful lisping bureaucrat just messed everything up, served the Helius alliance up to the Kett on a silver platter.
But whomever you choose, I have a feeling that the writers will pull an Udina/Anderson.

I ended up going with Bradley because he seemed a solidly non-controversial choice.
However, I wanted to choose the Moshae, and I'll almost definitely choose her in my ultimate canon/all DLC runthrough. I just feel like it's the best thing to do to ensure relations between the Angara and the Initiative remain friendly- I feel like things could very quickly go awry once the Initiative starts running at 100%.

I went with Bradley. I'd come to trust his judgment most over the course of the game, out of the four options. Moshae would have been my second choice but I recalled the first decision she makes in the game; destroy the kett base and all the angara inside of it. I felt that decision was an irrational one as it was based on the fear and neglected the very real possibility that we'd be able to destroy the base in the future; the fact that disagreeing with her on that one issue so soured her opinion of me made me feel that she is not someone who is used to having her 'wisdom' questioned and doesn't react well when it is.
Morda was out because she demonstrated that the only way she could sniff out treachery in her ranks was when it literally announced itself in front of her, and then she immediately went to demands and ultimatums - which, granted, I agreed to because I believe in strong relations with the Krogan, but that only goes so far.
The Salarian Pathfinder, which I had the replacement captain instead of Reaka, was out because he's repeatedly described as inexperienced. Seems to be coming into his own well enough but still. Also, Salarians tend to have a very short sighted world view - space racism setting in but there it is.

This is a large reason why I opted not to pick Bradley. Not all of the Angara actually trust the Initiative. In fact, quite a few are still wary of us "invaders" and likely would be even more skeptical if an "alien" was representing everybody, including the Angara, in the Heleus Cluster. The Moshae just seemed like the least controversial and practical option. Tann won't like it, but it will keep the peace and likely defuse any possible misunderstandings.

Morda is imo the most obvious choice. 1) She’s a leader who endured centuries of Krogan diplomacy (struggle for powers, backstabbing, frontstabbing, bombs, wars and Thresher Maw) and yet was able to stabilize her enclaves (as in multiple clans) enough to have male and female Krogan sharing spaces. Something not even uncle Wrex on Tuchanka managed. This means she’s not only a politician, but a respected leader, who is willingly to kick her people in the ass and the quad to better the condition of the entire enclave. And she does it out of personal greed: she does it because she believes and has a vision.
2) Even after the insurrection on the Nexus she is intelligent enough to hear you out, you a representative of the Nexus, where the AI inflicted on her species the same treatment the Councile reserved on the Krogan after the Rachni wars: used as a muscle just to be discarded. And Morda has the humility to acknowledge your importance for the future of the Krogans.
2) She has centuries of experience as a leader, which is at least double the time of the Moshae.
3) She managed to lay the foundation of a successful colony on a hellish planet, in spite of all the difficulties, while keeping 100 odd Krogans in check. She produces results in the most terrible conditions.
4) When you return to the colony with the news of Struck betrayal and bringing the location of the Remnant Core, she only ASK you to provide the core to power up the colony. She doesn’t demand it, nor order the Krogan to kill you if you don’t spit it out immediately. I repeat: she doesn’t take it from you (the representative of an enemy), she only asks it with an incredible leap of faith for a Krogan. And if you accept, the security of the new AI colony on Eladeen is guaranteed by the Krogan. That is honor people.
5) Being a Krogan warlord, not even the Primus could hope to kidnap her, like the Kett did already once with the Moshae. Morda probably has an headbutt mean enough to revert exaltation back.
After all of the above, the mindfuck Tann is subject to should you choose Morda is only a bonus, imo. And even if her diplomacy is unconventional (Tables flipped in rage, tables flipped in glee and sometimes for no reasons at all), I think rebuilding a united front with all the members of the AI is the most correct things to do as a Pathfinder.

Let her prove how cooperative and diplomatic she really wants to be, first. Morda is a birch, just like Sloane. But both of them are the lovable kind. This position is an official olive branch to the krogan for the past, both the MW and the Andromeda stuff. It still feels like a lulz choice though, I think Kesh would be more suitable for the post.

In my first playthrough I picked the Moshae. Reasoning was as follows:
Bradley is not an option. He's human, I'm human. Salarian pathfinder not an option, as he was put forth by Taan. Both Salarians. So that left Morda and the Moshea. Easy choice.

It was tough choice between Bradley and the Moshae. In the end Aza needed to include the Angara because he shot Aksuul and further alienating them would strengthen the Roekaar.

No way in hell i'd choose Morda.
