U-2

How will actions such as the US flying U-2 spy planes over Russia during this period be represented in the game?

Using the relations meter could be good- with 'advisors' in proxy wars, intense incursions, and puting troops in places like cuba pushing the meter towards a hot war.

But clearly the declare war on incursion would need working on.

Its been a real long time since ive seen the message,so long im not even sure at this time which version it was in, but you used to be able to turn off war on incursion (for the player),and you'd get this message saying there was an incursion,asking you what you wanted to do about it.The two options IF i remember correctly were war and nothing.

So at least the frame work is there to build a deeper reaction system for this kind of occurrence.

Yeah, I remember that. I always though that the idea was for the use of special forces to do demolitions or recon. But the AI never used it and alway declared war.

Seeing as how they have made a shiny new mesh for the U2 I suspect they will not neglect this part of the Cold War!

I wonder if "Military Advisor" will be a new unit. Perhaps even a new kind of unit that attaches to indigenous units, raising their efficiency. Or, like in SR2020, when you get the UN message about advisors, that in CW, individual nations can provide advisors which raise efficiency based on tech difference or some other factor.

That would make a nice touch,especially if not only the UN could own and deploy them.

Exactly!
