Which parts of the CWE submod do you want to add in NWO

simsulla commented 7 years ago

Some of the added events/decisions. But don't know details at the moment. Need to review when it is time.

Dveduu I played the CWE mod today because I was interested in how NWO and CWE diverge. In general I find the vision behind NWO to be much better and the social/political/economy more well thought out.

CWE does however have some interesting events that may be worth considering for NWO. In particular, a few interesting events relating to Israel:

I played for around 20 years as Israel and there were some neat events. I'd consider them to be fairly historically plausible as well.

For example, there is an event where if the Jews become a minority in the population, it loses its character as a "Jewish Democracy"- and you get three choices, one to become Palestine (Jews move Jerusalem which becomes a city state), one to become a Sectarian regime that is no longer a democracy, and another to do the two state solution. The first and third decision make sense- I think that if Arabs were to become the majority demographic in Israel, they would rapidly change the country in both name and character. Likewise the two state solution is already being proposed IRL (though you can already do it in game by releasing Gaza/Palestine, you don't get any population transfers though). The second option is a little speculative, but not outside of the realm of possibility.

There is also an improved 6-day war event, and a few other events that I didn't get around to playing since the game got too laggy.

Anyway this ARR8 fellow who is writing the events seems to be pretty knowledgeable and it might be worth adding.[/
