Hello, all. I was wondering if there was an explanation as to why the standard WA category strengths (mild, significant, strong) is not currently used for environmental proposals. Also, is "all businesses" considered equivalent to "significant" for the purposes of strength? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
"All businesses" is (at least) "strong" in its effects, that's all that I know about this... ... well, apart from the fact that 'Environmental' has 'Industry Affected' rather than 'Strength' being "because that's how Max set it up"...
The Confrederated Clans (and other Confrederated Bodys) of the Free Bears of Bears Armed (includes The Ursine NorthLands) Demonym = Bear[s]; adjective = ‘Urrsish’.
Population = just under 20 million. Economy = only Thriving. Average Life expectancy = c.60 years. If the nation is classified as 'Anarchy' there still is a [strictly limited] national government... and those aren't "biker gangs", they're traditional cross-Clan 'Warrior Societies', generally respected rather than feared.
Quod suggested a while back (hence the link on the Big List) that there should be a milder version of "All Business". After drafting the Protection of Outer Space, and seeing the problems with the Area of Effect first hand, I have to agree that seems like a good idea. Most environmental issues that seem to crop up in the WA don't attack one specific industry, they attack industry as a whole, either slighty or majorly. Adding something to the extent of a milder form of "All Business" would probably be very benefical to future proposal writers.
