Sabotage!

[SykoNurse]

how about non-nation-specific events for acts of sabotage or even outright terrorism?

I) terrorism could occur when dissent goes up over a mark of lets say 25.
-> random leader/minister killed

II) sabotage could take place in conquered foreign territory, also to solve that partisan problem
-> temporary drop of 1 or 2 IC
-> temporary drop of infra

as IC and Infra recover really fast sabotage would only be annoying, nothing else but maybe could reflect partisan activity and add to the overall flavor playing...

Sounds great, Partisans should also make you lose supplies or resources and maybe the Infra/IC-loss could be made final, same could go for fortress levels (maybe in 1.04???), the leader/minister is a good idea as well. Also there might be sudden take-over of provinces (+ a militia/inf. unit added) by SOV/ENG if you don't garrisson 'em ( trigger would be if ALL surrounding provinces would have NO garrisson, except for provinces with difficult terrain; these would need permanent garrisons. Also historical uprisings could be of real military use (Maquis would suddenly pop up if allies land in the South of France, a huge Yugoslavian uprising under Tito when the Soviets/Allies approach Belgrade,...).

events for allied commando ops with similar effects as in the sabotage/terrorism idea in coastal provinces spring to mind....

maybe the Infra/IC-loss could be made final

I think at least the infra recovers automatically and pretty fast too. the ic though go down permanently in one of the other random events (major worker strike, is it?) also, so that should work.

We need to wait for a patch with partisans.

Well, maybe if it isn't in 1.04 ....

 

[SykoNurse]

hm, i´d still like to see these events made, regardless of partisans...

I wouldn't hold my breath...

The ethopian event shows that partisans can't be effectively done..

I am working on some sabotage events for Yugoslav terrorism. They'll be sent to Generalissimo when I get the time to finish them (well at least the part I started)

 

[SykoNurse]

imo you don´t need actual units to have partisans in the game. I´d be happy enough with an event box popping up and telling me there IS partisan activity and I lose x IC and x Infra. That´s no heavy disturbance in the game but maybe annoying. Maybe I could even spend something to supress that kind of thing happening or would have to garrison provinces exactly like in the ethiopian events.

cool!

No, I think that any loss of infrastructure is too harsh a penalty. The partisans were an organised military force, not a bunch of anarchists running through town blowing stuff up.

Unless there is an event where Germany can choose to "retalliate" (The provinces regain what they lost, at the expense of resources)

 

[SykoNurse]

you´re right. i put it within partisans. let´s give it a different name then. thread was about sabotage anyway.
I don´t think infra would be a too severe penalty as the drop atm is not a permanant issue...
would retaliation be okay with the general restrictions in the game and forum regarding atrocities and such? I think not.

Well, there can be units IMO; they only need to be SOV or ENG instead of a non-existant nation... If the retreat bug is fixed we can use 'em quite often to give the Germans a harder time...
