<head1>My Ideas</head1>
*Make Economic changes gradual, causing the effects to change over 10 years, unless accompanied by a revolution.
*Make Value changes gradual, causing the effects to change over 15 years.
*Make Political changes gradual, causing the effects to change over 10 years, unless accompanied by a revolution.
*Lots of SE choices.
Such choices could be:
Political stuff:
Government Value (like the Gov in SMAC)
Government structure
Rights
Army

Economic stuff:
Economic Value (like the Econ in SMAC)
Taxes
Welfare
Competition

And Other Value stuff:
Base Value system (like Value in SMAC)
Technology
Science
Religion
Sexuality
Enviroment


*Random shifts in public opinoin, requiring you to change your SE choices or face the wrath of riots.

*SE radomly moving one way or another

Might as well get in one final idea before the dorrs close

This is closely related to Galen's ideas, concerning gradual change.

Suppose I'm in a government system that has +3 morale (assuming it's going to be like SMAC) and I want to switch to another form with -1 morale.

First turn after the revolution I would have +2 morale. Then +1 morale, then 0, and finally -1. The length of the revolution would be the largest difference in values.

Speaking of closing doors . . .

I don't have time to do the summary right now, but this thread is closed, and the new one will be <a href=http://apolyton.net/forums/Forum28/HTML/000107.html>SE/G 2.0</a>. If you've been following Octo's numbering scheme, you know this mean that the the next summary (at the beginning of the 2.0 thread) will be the one to go in the first list shipped to Brian Reynolds. Keep sending suggestions though, because even though they won't get in the first letter, there will be more . . .
