Suggestions for Improvement

Evil Darth Sidious

I have a nation that is purely Evil (Evil Darth Sidious); however, I find that the UN does not leave room for such nations to make proposals that abide with their beliefs (which makes sense in real life, but should be allowed in gaming terms). What I mean is that you can make many proposals to improve Civil Rights and Political Freedom, but you can't propose things that will take away Civil Rights and Political Freedom. In other words, you should be able to propose issues that will result in "Evil" consequences, not "how strongly will this resolution IMPROVE Civil Rights," but how much will this resolution take away from it.

Also, you should be able to make proposals with many consequences. For example, a proposal to decrease Civil Rights AND Political Freedom, BUT AT THE SAME TIME improving the Economy. Maybe it's already possible to do this and I'm not aware of it. Please let me know if it's already possible. If it's not, I think it's a good modification to consider.

Thanks,

Most categories have opposite categories, and if they don't, they usually have them self-contained.

Human Rights
A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.

and

Moral Decency
A resolution to restrict civil freedoms in the interest of moral decency.


The Furtherment of Democracy
A resolution to increase democratic freedoms.

and

Political Stability
A resolution to restrict political freedoms in the interest of law and order.

Just read through all the possible categories, or read "Before you make a Proposal..." (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=282176)

No. A proposal that attempts to extend into more than one category is ILLEGAL and will probably remain so. In my experience, the mods tend to add rules to the UN rather than remove old ones.

Plus, if you want to make your nation evil, just answer your issues in an evil manner. The UN doesn't have that much of an effect on your stats, and it's not like you're required to obey them while answering issues anyway.
