Good job. I really like how you have each update last an election cycle. I'm starting to feel the rhythm.
That is very, very true. The Victorians were not afraid to give things names so long people could forget the beginning before reaching the end. By such standards Liberal-Conservative is the very model of succinct brevity.Though I for one like the name Liberal-Conservative its so Victorian in its cumbersomeness and oxymoronic nature

Yes it is...It's back!
Oh yes, a crucial one in game terms... and one that will transform the next centuryBut so to the update, a most costly victory but a victory nevertheless.
Hum... I think we have the classic "chicken and egg" situation here... which came first?And I suspect the support of the financiers was a self-fulfilling prophecy, by withdrawing support because they thought the US would lose they made it all but certain that the US would in fact lose.
Yes... I think you have it dead on in this regard... more on that laterOne potential black cloud, if memory serves doesn't a defeated US perpetually seek vengeance on the CSA and declare war every chance it gets? (I don't own Vicki so this could be completely wrong)
I don't know what your talking bout! think I got them all nowAll your picutres have become tomatoes. A tasty food, surely, but rather out-of-place in the Great Game.
