great idea for policy goverment changes

[unmerged(85536)]

i always thought it was annoyin that it took a whole year for policy changes

the idea is you can force a policy change though by using money or a cost to discent... or in the worse case scenario a coup

I support this

One simple solution could be a dissent hit of 12 minus the months since last time you changed the sliders. That way if you only change them every year like now you can do it for free, but you can also make a massive change if you are willing to upset your whole system.

Using money shouldn´t be an option. That way the US can change their policies very rapidly, which should only be allowed via event. This still is supposed to be at least to some extent a historical simulation. Any other way to accelerate the speed of political changes should IMO be implemented by modding.

I agree with Blecky

If this is to be considered, there should be lots of dissent tied to trying to change your political sliders as a democracy. That's basically trying to put people & policies in power that didn't get votes (AKA Coup).

maybe the dissent hit should depend on the current tipe of government... the more democratic the more dissent/change

right. Hitler moving to a Standing Army, won't cause the people to get pissed at him more than FDR doing that.

Seconded!

Well, its an intriguing idea. But there should be som penalties involved. Im not sure only dissent is enough, and if dissent, it should be a realy large penalty. Maybe if when you forced a slider move through you set a flag which allowed all kinds of bad events to happen for a period of time? Like random dissent hits, decreased GDE from army disscontent, supply losses and such. Or have I played to much magna Mundi?
