99% of this is impossible for me to care about since it's a capitalist whining about being "de-ownered"

it is imperative to crush the bourgeois revisionism of "worker's self-management" in any way one can... under contemporary conditions our task is analysing the californian game developer and his fucked up 401K situation

Russian Campaign is the fourth and last campaign of Empire Earth. It is based on the fictional country Novaya Russia, and set in the near future. It is made of six scenarios and is generally considered the hardest campaign in the game. During the campaign gameplay you switch through many ages: Modern Age, Digital Age and Nano Age.

The offical description of the campaign is: *"Following the collapse of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s, the proud state of Russia struggled to find its place in the new world order. But after 25 years little forward progress was made. Now, street-wise young man named Grigor Illyanich Stoyanovich is promising to return Russia to its rightful place as a powerful and respected nation. In his heart burns the ambition to build the greatest empire ever seen on Earth."

I think I may have cracked the code:

In 1993, a group of offended parents sued a school which had provided the game to students and MECC, the developer. The game was pulled off the market as a result.

this is a good article about how MECC grew as a wildly successful and admired state agency developing educational and easily-distributable software, was privatized in the early nineties, made a few hundred million bucks for investors, then was shuttered before the decade was over

miriam always build all these shitty little bases in crap locations and terraforms like garbage, then fills them up w useless cannonfodder troops that serve no purpose but to trigger gamecrashing bugs that firaxis never bother fixing



ofc the nature of this linked unit bug is such that it only happens late game after you've already dedicated beaucoup time and effort into it

you might be interested in https://forums.civfanatics.com/forums/civ4-planetfall-mod.278/ it's not exactly the same game but it's a good adaptation. miriam is still a wretched hag for example
