Jez-tastic rally in Islington - you can hear Sky News praying for a Sheffield moment.0

As yet unrevealed - either a poll Lab lead or swing back to Tories on a big scale was the thinking, with the second kaboom meaning another.kjohnw said:

It also could be where the LDs have put in the miles, they could be doing well. I hope Kate Tory Hoey loses.kle4 said:
I was confused too, but I think the point was if LDs are up massively in Vauxhall but the national polls are right they are making no progress, then it is likely the LDs are doing well in London but poorly elsewhere, meaning other LDs are under threat?Bobajob_PB said:
Eh? Vauxhall is a 'Labour' defence. I use the inverted commas because it is the odious Kate Hoey who is the Labour MP there. Let's hope she loses.tlg86 said:

There are special circumstances in Vauxhall. It's a deep red, ultra liberal, highly europhile, central London seat. Hoey is a socially conservative arch Labour Leaver who fraternised with Farage. It is has possibly the most incongruous MP of any seat in the whole country.tlg86 said:

As I have said many times, a scenario where minor party voters switch towards Corbyn, and one where voters coalesce behind the leading anti-Tory candidate in each seat, look exactly the same in a national VI poll, since the large majority of Tory MPs/targets have Labour challengers.kle4 said:

War in the East - that is all :-)IanB2 said:
I understood it simplified a lot of the micro-management from III but spoiled the depth of the game in the process. So I didn't buy it. Maybe I should reconsider?NickPalmer said:
Yes, HOI. I never got past HOI III. The military side was fascinating, but the dumbed-down eonomics seemed a real pity. How does HOI IV change it?bardigiani said:
Hearts of Iron IV is a serious time thiefIanB2 said:
Is that hearts of iron? The various versions struggle to get the right balance between complexity/micro-management and over-simplification.NickPalmer said:
Agreed. I used to play their WW2 games a lot too, before I got a bit too busy. The economics were rubbish but the politics were delightfully detailed - you could simulate what would have appened if the USA went Communit with President Gus Hall, or Britain went pro-Nazi, or other unlikely alternate histories.IanB2 said:
+1 for Paradox. Although City Skylines would appeal to the aspirant mayors in here.Chameleon said:
Stellaris is a very decent recent addition to the genre. Paradox games generally are very high quality. Victoria 2 & Crusader Kings being my stand out recommendations.NickPalmer said:
Very well for my taste. I'm a MOO 2 fan - I like lots of rich detail plus asymmetric races plus turn-by-turn play plus decent AI. I hate3D fiddling and real-time action. Endless Space 2 is perfect for me - all the good stuff, plus evocative films of the battles (which one can switch off) but no real-time control. I'm beating the AI at Normal, but Hard is a bit more of a challeng, and it works well with humans too.kle4 said:

That's actually illegal, isn't it? Teachers are allowed to encourage pupils to explore ideas and compare alternative beliefs, but are phohibited from expressing their own political opinions.
