Potential Direction[]

I want there to be branching paths and have the situation be such that, if it were to be made into a mod, anything could happen given player input.

In the first stage, the player will have four general routes for the nation.

In the second stage, the player will either succeed or fail in their chosen path. New events and paths can emerge from choices here that will compound on each other.

  Paths

  • Strengthen the current regime (DNVP)
    • Succeed - Opposition/Monarchy sidelined
      • Towards Puppet Monarchy
      • Towards Abolishing Monarchy
      • Towards One Party Rule
    • Fail
      • Opposition gains more power than DNVP
        • Towards Opposition Majority
        • Towards Reform/Liberalization
        • Towards Coup
        • Towards Revolution
      • Monarchy gains more power than DNVP
