One more idea for Democracy 2 - i think it would be great to add some form of simple scripting language to Democracy,especially for dilemma and event modding. This way you could easily create more than two choices for dilemmas ,or even some other form of option selection (like a slider etc.),create some kind of word randomizers for events (for example you could get Nobel prize for chemistry,biology,physics,economics ets.,without the need to create more events files ),or even create some additional minigames into Democracy (like the console board game in Kudos).
absolutely, my games would benefit a lot from scripting, but you need to have it in mind when you first start on a game
