Wha? SB might be slightly more "anarchist" than SDN and DS, but that does not mean we don't have our fair share of skilled and educated professionals.

Indeed, you have the largest population and industry. But it more suits SDN's nature to be all high-tech and minimal industry, and better suits SB to be a very large group capable of sustaining themselves in the field.

Hm,hm... I'd say that SD.net should be Leninist. Medium left (what naive conservative hasn't been grilled to a crisp when spouting off the pparty line here), highly authoritarian (the admins are active, and usually anyone who antagonises the staff gets banned immediately). Which fits, I'd think.

As far as Research teams, the HAB should be a powerful one, specializes in Armour, of course. The Warwolves could focus on Infantry and Land Doctrines, as could the Mess, and as far as other stuff... Just use skilled posters and assume they get their own cadre of Igor-like servants.

SD having the highest infrastructure and IC per province makes sense, and perhaps the best tech as well. DS would obviously get extra bonuses to re-org and strength, as mentioned, while SB should be the largest, with the largest military and most rounded-out tech-list.

I had something else to say, but it got lost. Nevermind.

Incidently, Steve, I'm more of a Centrist(or even right of center) rather than Social Democrat.

Or so I assume. It's been awhile since I played HoI, so I'm not sure. :wink:

HOI2 doesn't have Centrists. It has the following:

Social Democrat
Social Liberal
Social Conservative
Market Liberal
Paternal Autocrat
Left-Wing Radical
Leninist
Stalinist
Fascist
National Socialist

This is the game's ideology matrix (for determing ideology by positions on the Left-Right Wing and Democracy-Dictatorship sliders).
