By consensus, we have begun strategic nuclear research. This will take years to complete, so don't get your hopes up for a nuclear war anytime soon.



The spy cells are now in training. It will take eight months to take the recommended 5 cells to elite levels, four months to train to veteran and then another four to train to elite. What should be done in the interim? Firsthand experience tells me that Moldova can be beaten with the current Romanian standing army.

Well, then attack Moldova. Offer to recognize Transdnistria as independent if Russia helps.

Well, then, poll time. Do we annex our incredibly weak neighbor, Moldova?

Can you rename the cells? If so, name them "A Hint of Gravitas", "Variable Gravitas", "Are You Sure That's Enough Gravitas", "Way Too Much Gravitas", and "A Serious Lack of Gravitas".

Operation Gravitas shall begin.

Remarkable lyrics, remarkable language. Never realized how close to Latin it was.

Me miserable! which way shall I fly
Infinite wrath, and infinite despair?
Which way I fly is Hell; myself am Hell;
And, in the lowest deep, a lower deep
Still threatening to devour me opens wide,
To which the Hell I suffer seems a Heaven.

Heh, pretty sue that there are the names of some of The Cultures ships from the running Gravitas gag in there. If so, might I add "Experiencing A Significant Gravitas Shortfall", "Very Little Gravitas", "Zero Gravitas", "Stood Far Back When The Gravitas Was Handed Out", "Gravitas, What Gravitas?", "Gravitas... Gravitas... No, Don't Help Me, I'll Get It In A Moment...", "Gravitas Free Zone", and "Low Gravitas Warning Signal" to the list?

I'm still amazed sidewalks is the same word in French and in Romanian.

I'm basing it off that, so definitely add those.

I got the army readied up, and ordered them to mass on the border with Moldova.





The attack began shortly thereafter.



Welcome to Superpower 2's battle screen! It's absolutely terrible. The unit icons in the upper section have no relation to unit positioning, and combat is largely a numbers game. No real room for tactics.



We absolutely thrashed the Moldovan military. But...wait...what the hell?







Through a a chain of events and invasions by other nations, we aggro'd the whole world. Freaking JAPAN invaded us. Japan! The one that can't use troops outside of its own nation! EVERYONE HATES US. We cannot win.

Restart simulation? Y/N

Restart. I'd like to see this go to places, even if I'm not the #1 fan of playing as Romania.
