Eloquent Silence
Thank you, mad-bax. I think you have some really good ideas in there. I'm a big fan of making Infrastructure the DP, and the President actually has a real job now! However, I must say that hierarchy always brings with it the possibility of conflict. Are we going to end up with everyone running for the power seat (President)?
Good point about the VP too. In the current DG, haven't seen the VP do much of anything at all.
Question: Who does trading? I think you probably meant to include it with Foreign although it doesn't say that.
Comments:
1) I think Foreign and Intelligence should be lumped together. Foreign can handle emabassies, investigations, and espionage. However, I also think that the Foreign (macro) Office should not handle defense. That should be left to the military (which is the deputy anyway if I'm reading correctly). Military should also handle exploratory units. That way they have control over all military assets. CivGeneral has raised the point elsewhere that Military should also handle Settler escorts. I think that's a reasonable request.
2) You gave specialist allocation to Interior. Might that be better suited to Governors? They handle their own cities anyway.
3) Might as well put all the settler related issues in one office. I don't like how the macro office decides settlement density, rate, direction and then someone else sets the actual sites. I think one person can handle all that, but that might just be me. I mean, look at the current game, Domestic had one poll about settlement density and then we never heard about it again. Let the people managing the settlers handle that one decision also.
