Random civilwars.

5.Co-operative Multi Player!
How to fire it?
Based on your parameters with the option to 'trigger' earlier if 'requested' (option button?) by majority of players.

I hinted at this before.
The fact is that in Co-op Multi Player this will be demanded by players almost at once (if not initially included - which it should be!).
It is the nature of man (er, players?).
The fact is that any game like this played by a bunch of agressive megalomanics like us will probably degenerate to Civil War alot of the time The penalties are good as this will stop ALL co-op multiplayer games going this way. Infact - make the penalties tougher for this very reason.

If civil wars have seperate tags then players in a CW will be playing seperate countries, so it won't be co-op MP at all

Ahh, yes but editing them in, is not excactly "random" is it?

This thread has got me thinking on how to mod in random civil wars:

1. Each country needs a civilwar event triggered by a flag, call it localflag = CW_now, to release the other tag and do any other wacky CW things needed.
Yup, step 1 is the biggest step.
2. One invention style event triggered by high dissent/revolt risk/lack of goods etc. this event set the local flag CW_now.
3. Profit!

A nice EUII-style hidden, engine based CW event would be better, but it seems possible to mod in with enough extra tags.

I always play on very easy, and I want civil wars, so I don't think that should be the case.

Wow. Don't you get bored?
