I'm imaging a crack team of steel-wearing goblin mercenaries that are hired by the elves you're waring with to sneak in and do their dirty work. 

...By offering their services to your own fortress in order to wage war on the Elves. You get double the Gold, with zero the effort!

I think Milo might be a guy who posts a lot.

ROMs are in fact illegal, because you are not paying for the games that you are downloading. It is rather unlikely that you'd be prosecuted though, but doing illegal stuff is bad.

Well, I like the idea of liberal cops giving wisdom. According to the LCS, their position is the only LIBERAL position out there, and everyone who manages to deviate a little bit is CONSERVATIVE scum that must be ENLIGHTENED or brutally DEALT WITH. The game's mechanics are reflecting society within the eyes of the LCS, so it is better for "Wisdom" to represent any sort of devation from LCS' conception of right and wrong, and the Liberal Police obivously having lots of Wisdom because of the Police's refusal to 'teach' their Conservative brethen.

Oh, and put me down for "semi-instant-rehabilition". If it can take me 10 days to convert a guy, it should take them 10 days to cure it. Of course, in my view of the LCS setting, "rehabilition" is just another name for cult deprogramming, so meh.

Is there any reason why, in an L+ society, people still hire Ace Liberal Attorneys? Since you're going to get Life anyway, regardless of how you defend, isn't it better to keep your 5K, and instead focus on breaking said founder out?

I find it very funny to see conversions happen so easily and people give up and die for the guy who, only a few days ago, wanted to kill him.

I don't know what actually causes the CCS to raid, but I do know that their raids are just the same as the LCS raiding News Stations and AM Radio (in that it impacts the issue, swaying them to the CCS' position). "Public Broadcasting Stations" and "FM Radio" are just flavor text.

Well, for now, I'm going to try and implement the Leninist Crime Squad, if only because if I can create a society that is partially Arch-Conservative and partially Elite Liberal (at least according to the code), then that would mean other organizations such as the Police Advocacy Board can exist.

I think I finally got a good grasp of how the LCS code works. The only thing that I need to know is how do Cable News and AM Radio affects public views currently, and see if I can use that to create other organizations that would do something similar.

Not really Squeegy.

False confessions is good for convicing the American ambassador that the Soviet Union is awesome. But a person who confessed to treason wouldn't go out and actually DIE for you, understand? The LCS needs more refined brainwashing techinques.

If any of them has leadership keep em conservative till they are arch conservative then recruit sleepers with them.

All the people other than the Judge I have are brainwashed, making them impossible to recruit.

Also, some other To-Do notes:
1) I may need to steal a car so I can reach the Conservative HQ and kidnap CEOes. What people are good at stealing cars?
2) I have problems with kidnapping police officers. They seem to resist by punching me and sending me to jail. Even equipping an Sword causes the Police Officer to still punch me, forcing me to reload. Should I abandon trying to convert Police Officers?

Gah, I forgot to Liberalize a Corporate Manager for you, EuchreJack, I will do so now, right after I make the "State of the Liberal Crime Squad" speech.

Ahem. August 4th, 2007.

1) Gibby the Fox has knocked out several News sites in the past months. Good job Gibby. You earn a gold star.

*Punish Polluters---Rejected, 5-4
*Expand Homosexual Rights---Rejected , 8-1
*Stop Harrassment of Police Officers, SUPPORTED, 5-4

Presumably, this is due to my sleepers. Had I set them all to Support Liberalism, maybe...just maybe, I would have swung one of the Conservatives to vote Liberal. Oh well.

CHANGING OF THE GUARD:
Justice Jaqueline Bump, Moderate, is stepping down.
The Honorable Monica Washignton, Conservative, is appointed to the bench!

Never going to happen now.

3) Converted an TV Anchorman and the Cigar Bar's Bouncer, turned them into Sleeper.

4) Squeegy got his juice up to 20 by conducting Civil Disobidence. Squeegy also got 5 extra Juice for kidnapping the Cigar Bar's Bouncer outright (rather than dating and kidnapping). Squeegy got an Katana to assist in kidnapping and a Cheap Suit to assist in the arts of sneaking around in the Ciga Bar.

5) Squeegy had some problems with interrogating an Police Gang Unit. The Police didn't know one of their elites was gone until 14 days had past, while Squeegy got endlessly tortured when the Police Gang Unit played mind gangs. Even when the Unit began to crack, it still mentioned about what our Liberal mothers would have felt. The Unit did finally get converted, but not in time to be a Sleeper.

The reason he didn't break as easily as the others was because he got 2.0 Interrogation Skill. I decide that, for whatever lame reason, I'm going to create a new Conversion Squad. One of the Hippes will stop Fundraising and instead date and kidnap Conservatives. Then the Police Gang Unit will come in turn those people into Sleepers. This should assist in getting me as many sleepers as possible.

Question: Most of the Sleepers are at Trusted, but a few are still at Known. All except for the Radio Personality is set to promoting Conservativism, including the Bouncer and the Janitors, etc. When would be a good time to stop Promoting Conservativsm and send them to Promoting Liberalism. Currently, I am following a policy of waiting until they reach Arch-Conservative and then setting them loose to promote Liberalism, but that may take a long time, and I am still afraid of doing the CCS' work for them. Plus, Plebsctice Season is coming up.

Other Games / Re: Are there any rts games that still have random maps?

Wesnoth is turn-based.
 
I have a RTS game where you control robots battling other robots. I don't have the name, and I didn't really like it. All the factions are the same, it doesn't matter if you play as North Korea, Libya, United States, Canada, Turkey, Virgin Islands, Britian, Russia, Luxemborg, etc., you still get access to the same old boring tanks and airplanes. Random maps were the only good thing in that game.

And I don't know how to do C++.

Meh. There are other methods...prehaps. Maybe. The actual workings of the CCS, is that hardcoded into the system as C++ or are there parts that can be modified with a simple text file? Maybe I can use the CCS as a template to form other Crime Squads (assuming that all parts of the CCS are not hard-coded in)...or maybe not. Doesn't hurt to inquire, I guess.

One other thing, are the triggers that causes Conservatives to seige your HQ hardcoded in or are they in a text file? Maybe that can be used...

The mutants have evolved far beyond what the democratic empire of Progress has anticapted.

It soon began to dawn on them that building an entire army solely composed of tanks wasn't a good idea.
