I am playing CORE 7.1SP, as USA, and would like to know if there is anywhere one go to get a list of the effects of the gazillion events that are always firing off...I know that the really major events that affect one's own country, like deciding the fate of a presidential election, provide some description of immediate results to help in a decision, but what I am after is a list somewhere that tells me about other event effects...For example, if Italy and Yugoslavia sign a non-agression pact, what does this 'mean' in game terms? If the Germans go off to give one of the China's military advisors/technical assistance, how will that affect the game? What IS the Oslo Pact, and what is the big deal if all the Scandanavian countries accept it except Denmark?

Is there a place where those of us that haven't invested all the effort in understanding the scripting language can see this easily? The CORE Changelogs (as comprehensive as they are!) just show the new events in each release, not what the (immediate) effects of a given event are likely to be...

Many thanks in advance.

Usually U get the description of the effect if you just move the mouse-cursor over the buttons/text (dont press the mouse button right away). If there is NO info on the Button "YES/NO" to activate the event then there is no immediate effect but another event for another nation could be activated.
F.ex. If germany decides to negotiate for steel with Sweden and then Sweden gets the option to say YES or NO and If they say YES you get an event again as Germany to Confirm that you have exchanged coal/steel with Sweden and remember the effect is always on the button you choose (and in the event descr.).
Have FUN :)

Thanks Smark, but I was more referring to the events that happen involving OTHER countries not those where I get to make a decision, like in the examples I quoted in my original post. So, for example if we take the 'Oslo Pact' event, as the USA I am trying to determine what is the effect of all those other Scandanavian countries entering the Olso Pact, and what might the significance be (from my perspective as the USA) of Denmarl not entering it...Is this equivalent to them all creating an Alliance together? Or, again citing a specific example that occurred in my game, as the USA I want to understand just what is the effect of Germany sending advisors to China in 1937 - is the game effect that Germany has shared technologies with China, sent an expeditionary force, or what?

My post was asking if there is a central list where not only the events are documented (the Changelogs do this) but also the EFFECTS of the events...

Cheers,
