But anything lower could jeopardize that. A popularity level of 50% or higher can mean you get another term. Your popularity level is what ultimately determines if you get elected to another term. But remember, your every move is going to either have success or catastrophic ramifications. Set up coup d'etats Or blow them up in a nuclear holocaust. Arrange for surgical strikes, issue peace delegations, give them Most Favoured economic status or block trade. You can declare war on them or defend them. You can send them humanitarian, economic, intelligence, military and nuclear aid. You can decide what to do with each country. Click on SOC/ECO/CIA/MIL or NUC for each option menu and decide what you will do to the selected country. Another way is to press the ? key and use the up/down arrows to find the specific country you're looking for), move your mouse cursor the the extreme left on the map, the options menu will appear. When you select a country (just move the mouse cursor to a country on the map and click on it until it lights up.

But if you love a good game of mental chess rather than 3-D explosions and insane graphics, this is for you. It's one of those games that really belong in a classroom.

It can be pretty tedious at times with all the seemingly mundane things going on. Like I said, this game isn't big on graphics. This would be your first major test of how you would deal with a major world crisis in the Oval Office. If you remember that time (and it seems like yesterday to me), The Berlin Wall had come down, the Soviet Union hadn't become Russia again (and it wouldn't until 1991, but the change was already afoot in the Kremlin.) And most of all, Saddam Hussein's Iraq was getting it's dander up with Kuwait and would eventually invade it. Just like what a real president has to deal with. Any way you go, there are benefits and ramifications to every decision you make.
