Bombing Iraq is always fun. Unless they have nukes. That is not fun.

That's when it turns into !!Fun!!

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Yeah, surgical strikes are awesome.  And we DO want AoD's ethics to lower, right?

They nuked Syria, but it wasn't entirely unprovoked. We were trying to take it over. Still doesn't really justify pushing the button, though.

It doesn't even border any USSR-aligned nations. In fact, it borders Israel, Turkey, and Iraq, which were all US allies at the time of the invasion.

Ok, I need some help changing the file that the Dosbox screenshots are stored in. I don't know how to change it at all.

Hmmm...

Open up Dosbox.conf with a text editor
Look at line 39. Change "Capture=Capture" into "Capture=*Directory where you want the images*"

I haven't tried it myself, but based on the comments in the config file I think this will work.

Here's the big problem. I can't even find that. You know why? It's safely tucked away within the hidden section of my comp, it would seem. Manually trying to find it dosen't work. Searching for it dosen't work. The only thing that works is opening it using commands.

I've used up all my bandwidth. Which makes my net slower than slow internet on a TOR client. I'll have to wait to get my bandwidth back before I can do anything to this Let's Play.

That bit with the Soviet Union nuking Syria for no reason is one example of why one of my first goals in the game is to get the Soviet Union out of the picture. What I do at the beginning is begin a troop buildup in Japan, Norway, Turkey, and Iceland. I start small at first to avoid popularity drops, then I increase my troop levels in each country to the max (roughly two million each) By the Spring of 1991, I am ready to start non-nuclear World War Three. My pre-War polls were 59%. By the end, my polls dropped to 26%. Upon Soviet surrender, my polls jump to 70%. No nukes nor surgical strikes were used at all by either side. Conflict lasted roughly two months. With 80% of N. Korea's military buried in Siberia, I decided to attack. South Korea sides with me. North Korea is beaten less then a week later. Polls jump to 78%. As the larger invader, South Korea takes control of the north. China is dealt with in a similar fashion as the Soviet Union the following year.
