1. Neat
2. Pretty good its more fun if you get more control over the countries
3. Strength is mostly based on land Maybe. make 2 stats seperate Mostly strength doesnt rely on land
4. Difficult terrain would add a nice touch to the game
5. Same as 2.
6. No rivers? i think you are being a bit opinion based. Some people like rivers they make it feel realistic And adds a good art to the game
7. Nukes should be a option to turn on or off and when a country is losing they can use a nuke although the opponents country will be a wasteland and can only get obtained for how many years you like
8. Pretty classic
9. puppets are good if a country dont want revolts
10. YES! this should be a option and make treatys
11. Pacts will be intresting
12. Ehhhh.
