New work requirements

I found this today… The Ultimate War Simulation Game . Such fun, particularly when you work in an office where wargaming is your business… We sent it around and read it so much that it triggered the filters and now we’re denied the site from work! (Gotta love working for Big Brother…Uncle Sam)

16. I want one-fourth of my casualties to come from friendly fire and non-combat or training accidents. I want a big-name hero unit who rallies the troops with his Magical Sword of Slaying, only to be killed when an ammo crate falls off a loading dock.


17. In my Public Support Meter display, let me find out that the news media has run, in the same magazine, one story blasting us for going to war for minerals and another story blasting us for not acting on the continuing mineral shortage back home.
There should also be simultaneous stories about the outrageous expense of the war effort, and another about how the troops are under-funded and under-equipped. Set it so that I somehow lose public-support points with each story.
