Unable to use "Victory Pact" on a Major with 70 Relation, due to an error message stating at least 70 Relation is required.

Huh. That's confusing and also unlike any other QOL bonus in the game as I understand it, which translate to "points" directly (which then become "score" over time). I would suggest changing this bonus to affect the points as well.

I think it did appear in report next turn.
I just find it awkward to have the nation info via map, and a decision based on it (foreign faction support) appear a turn before the same info is presented in a report.

The political pack strat "Steal Tech" states it attempts to steal linear technology points .

I'm using it on a regime ("Roqellier Commune") which is more advanced on a couple of linear techs (Conventional Gun Optimization, Ice Mining Economization), and yet on a crit success the strat states there ...

The "Joint Vidcom Funding Law" is supposed to provide +50% QOL Entertainment bonus. I have a passed this law a couple of turns ago, it has been fully funded, and yet no bonus is provided.

In the MNG=>Models=>Design screen, the "Eng. Design" column for Air models should be empty ("-"), same as it is for infantry for example.

As I understand, the Engine Design roll has no effect for Air models (their speed/distance is always identical to what is in the blueprint regardless of the ...

Several issues with the "Improvised IP" strat:

1. It contradicts itself.
Is the cost 10 credits or 1 credit per 1000 pop?
Also, why the different wording (capped vs maximized)

2. Executing it on a zone with 117000 Pop:
How does 1d10*(Pop=117000) translate to ...

The weight for the MTH strat "Resource Rumours" in the Spying Stratagem category seems to be completely off the scale compared to other strats in the same category. That prioritization doesn't make much sense to me, especially given it's a pretty niche card compared to the send spy cards it shares a ...

A Major regime that I know about and have enough spies in to affect local politics does not show in the regime report section, while on the map the same info about the regime is fully shown.

The Major diplo strat Provocation causes relation drop, and is supposed to raise Fist profile by half the relation drop.

Instead - it lowers the Fist profile.

The text snippet for Light Tank model states it supports up to 100mm armor, while the actual model/blueprint allows up to 50mm of armor.

You're probably right, but I would consider that a bug, given what the game considers "Industry" in both the Construction and Manage Assets UIs.

I dont see the reason why the Agriculture skill would apply to one method of growing food but not another:

A promise to have 14 levels of Industry assets is not considered fulfilled, despite having enough levels at turn start.

The promise:

Industrial assets at turn start (MNG => Assets, Start Turn, filtered by Public+Industry), 15 Levels ...

However, regarding "known & reseach in progress" - hopefully Vic adds a way to let players know how to proceed with that tech.


What do you mean "proceed"? It can be researched by the Economic Council, like other Economic techs.

If you want to know what effect that tech has, click its name in ...

I'm not sure, but it might be the same category of tech as I encountered earlier with another tech:
https://forums.matrixgames.com/viewtopic.php?t=417064

You can still find it (and click on the name to read the tech description) in:
Reports => Overviews => Technology Overview

But I agree that ...

The zone marked with red is labeled "None", belongs to a Major AI (that I took the capital zone from) and is unselectable and untargettable by strats such as "Send Spy" (I am unable to even select that zone as the strat target).

Another example - using "Defeat in Detail", a Fist-70 prereq Posture, while having only Fist-27

AI Major seems to have access to Postures regardless of having the prerequisite Profile.

Here - the AI uses "Fortress", which is a Heart-90 unlock, while only having Heart-33.
I know that AI gets various resource/research bonuses, but this just seems like ignoring whole game mechanics by accessing ...

End of turn 94, I've conquered capital zone of enemy Major AI ("Ramania Hansa") and took out their SHQ.

For Human player, that would mean an entire turn without an SHQ commander and their combat bonuses (first turn raise the HQ, second turn assign commander).

On their turn (looking at combat ...
