Only goes to 40 currently. PM me if you have a better style, and I may use it. Yes, there are spoilers, but they really could be figured out by looking at the choices they present. This is good for tree(ers) and anybody looking for ideas on what to do.


Here I give you the effects (not what they actually say but actually do) so that you, the drafter (unless you don't draft) can check for duplicates or make trees easier. The first number is the issue number, and the second one is the choice number. If there's a question mark before it, it means that I am not exactly sure. I would like somebody to reproduce. Also, only the GAME ADMINS or me should edit this, as I would like it if the Forum mods did not edit this. This document is not a "standard" but could be used as one.

This is from a completely non-mod standpoint, but from someone that enjoys the issues.

Your list veers back and forth between being a simple rehash of what the text outcome of the issue is to an actual discussion of what happens to nation stats. The problem is you can't know what a lot of the actual nation stats are aside from percentages devoted to gov't positions and your taxes and main industry.

And if you've only managed to collect the first 40 issues, you need to get some more puppets. Even just the text can tell you a lot about what happens to a nation after the issue passes.

Although if he changes it from its current form to a list of the text the game outputs once the decision goes through it might be more useful.

That's because some of them don't have an effect of what really happens. They just say that spending should be increased and nothing else.

um, could you orgqanise that list. my eyes hurt from looking at it the way yo have it now.

Eventually. I want to get the rest up.

I don't have puppets. I'm using the spoiler text. ? means that I don't really know if that's the true effect. If somebody sees an effect that is off, just PM me on this forum. I'll change it.

I've edited about a third of the list. I will finish the list later. A month and a half is a good time to look back at the list and see what needs to be changed. :)

It also gives me more experience on the site.
