Everything on very hard
Approval effects low so I have the option of nuclear warfare open at least.
Early February 2020 France delcares war on us, for this they will pay once the UK has rebuilt its economy and come out of a recession.
In response to this act of war, we sign alliances with the following nations:
- India
- USA
- Sweeden
- Denmark
- Ireland (for now at least)
- Belgium
- Netherlands
- Saudi Arabia
- South Korea
- Japan
These nations will also be able to help us out with materials and cash from many trades, in order to help pay for my future huge army and airforce, with which I can go tour the world.
The plan for now:
Rebuild the economy into a super productive economy which will be able to support the large army with which I am planning on building, and then testing the equipment out in France. ALso placing technology quite high up on the list, so that we can benefit from greater range, firepower and cost savings, which can then be pumped back into the armed forces.
