I got this one, and I miss one option.

You see, you have two for space development (militaristic and peaceful), and one for alternate non-space development. But I think a nation willing to stay in modern tech military should have a "now that we are talking about it, increase ground-bound military spending" option.

It is just a personal suggestion.

I agree on this one. It would be much better for certain nations to have this option available

True, but also think about it: There are a number of issues that already encourage military spending =) And the system doesn't differentiate between space military spending and normal military spending- it's all military one way or the other =)

Exactly. While I too would like the cosmetic effects of large terestrial forces, I can RP it however the hell I want within the bounds of my budget, so if you want the bigger millitary, go for the sci-fi goodies, even if you're a bunch of magic-using elves bouncing through the over-protected trees.

Then may be the redaction of that option should be changed slightly to let modern tech options choose it without the feeling of being "pushed" to future tech.

I am a space-faring nation, so I have no problems with that, but I am thinking of other nations, not just mine.

I LOVE THE NAME!!!! OMG NOES!!

But I did see a few things that need to be fixed, or just I thought weere wrong...

My region's name is AZN Pride, and the issue uses azn_pride. Anyway to make the issue use the same setup as the region's setup, or is it a straight up text thing?

And

Is "The us marine corps" an ex-nation or something? Their name isn't highlighted in green like the other issue creators'. Or else this is an issue from the US Marine Corps........which I find highly unlikely :wink:

PH33R M3!111! and my space wank cannon of D00M!!1!!1one

Yeah, "The US Marine Corps" is an ex-nation =) Inactivity, I think.

I don't think it's fair to choose between Military Spending and Enviornmental Protection. I think a better trade off would be Military Spending or civil rights being lost.
