It would be much simpler if we could just emulate Rance. (Rance actually has many war/sim games.)
I imagine it would make dialogue with various characters hilarious. Catherine in particular.

Glad I wasn't the only chum who thought of that brunette bastard while playing this game. Thing is, I'd actually go for some light eroge in this game so long as it played into the setting (which means if you act out like Rance normally does, your empire and support will go to hell). And oh lord, the comedy that would unfold...
