Description
Second edition of the Cold War 1980's Defcon mod. Several changes were made to balance out the game plus add or remove certain elements to the faction setup. In 2.0 & 2.5, the Arab League now has a sea zone in the Atlantic. In 2.5, Argentina-Brazil now has a Pacific sea zone. In 2.7, USSR(W) is given a sea zone in the Indian Ocean near Ethiopia while USSR(E) is given Angola and an Atlantic sea zone. To solve a serious balance problem with India-Oceania, several cities are removed from India, plus South Africa is added to the same faction in all three mod folders. China no longer has Albania due to the 1978 Sino-Albanian Split however in Version 2.7, Somalia is added to the China faction. Several other tweaks and edits were made as well.
