I would love to make one but that would require STV (single transferable vote) to be added for any Assembly election to be accurate unless the current system can be modified to make it work..

That is true. Though I suppose the OLD Stormont elections of the 1930's-1960's could be done by the current engine... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daons 2 Posted June 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2017 That could be an option, The last election in 1969 might be interesting given the split in the UUP vote. They were still returned as the largest grouping but this would allow for some interesting seat by seat contests with Pro and Anti-O'Neill candidates. I'll have a look in to how practical 1969 would be in terms of platforms/candidates etc, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is that the system used in Australia? Because, if so, I believe Anthony is adding that once favorability is added to the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe the Australian system is called preference voting or something similar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
amore555 0 Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Just wanted to say the northern irish one is possibly my favourite campaign of all. I really like the smaller scale ones, and your one has the flexibility for surprising, yet not totally unrealistic outcomes. I was able to achieve a Sinn Fein Minority Govt.
