Communism or Fascism?

[BlackJAC]

I'm currently in Democracy, but a long drawn out war with France, America and Arabia means i'm starting to suffer from war weariness and it's also effecting my GPT.

As i've not got a wealth of land at my disposal I'm leaning towards Fascism, yet i'm not sure if Communism would better suit my needs in the long run.

Attacking India is out of the question as i've got MPP and i'm on very good terms with them also, in other words, I'm using them as a buffer zone for the hoards of French troops until I manage to make enough attacking units. I'm now paying for not paying much attention to my military.

I think it's only a matter of time before the Yanks side with France too as they're not entertaining any sort of alliance at all.

I think that fascism is better, but I don't have Conquests. Just from what I've heard and how i think.

I would suggest Communism. I tried Fascism once and hated it. If you build the Secret Police Headquarters, then you'll probably have less corruption in Communism anyway.

Fascism is good for the high unit support, which I think is 10 for each Metropolis, and the fast workers. You don't have any Metropolis-sized cities, and it looks like you've railroaded most of your territory already. Communism seems to me to be the clearly superior government in this case.

I too am experiencing the same situation as yourself somewhat, but rather because of the vast enormity of the empire I created and conquered I'm experiencing horrific amounts of corruption, even in democracy.

Anyways, it looks as though you have mostly large cities which will soon be metropolis' after your hospitals are finished up. Facism, even though I actually never tried it, seems to be best for small nations with huge cities, seeing as how the unit support for a metropolis is 10, but the corruption is considered a Nuisance. Communism on the other hand works best for large nations with any type of city size, also the communal corruption works nice.

So anyways, my suggestion would be to go facist, and if you happen to get lucky and start sacking a few cities of your own, then go communist.

COMMUNISM. It has a lowest corruption rate of 5% with an income surplus of 5,000+ gpt. (that is, as long as you have courthouses, forbidden palace, SPH, ect.)

Also, the 6 unit support per city is GREAT. You'd currently have 96 free unit support.
With Facism, however it would be 112. BUT, facism has MORE corruption.

You also have to whip for rushing in Communism. I don't believe you can buy improvements in this government.

Your empire isn't big enough to justify Communism. Facism sucks as it drops your pop.

If you intend to go for all war till the end, switch to Monarchy. Otherwise, make peace when WW is high, and only start quick wars, or switch to Republic for lower WW.

In any case, you shouldn't have switched to Democracy.
