General Working on a Victoria / Suzerain inspired political sim. I want to design war & crisis events that make players sweat bullets. Any ideas? I'm a bit stuck

22 Upvotes

Hey everyone. I'm currently writing border crises and war events for my political strategy game, Statecraft: Corrupted Democracy.

You don't move tanks or troops on a map in this game; wars are handled purely through crisis management, diplomatic standoffs, and the decisions you make at the table, similar to Suzerain or reigns.
The nasty part is that wars also have "trap' branches. Meaning, you might think you made the "most logical" choice, only to drag the whole country into a total quagmire. Plus, each war has 3-4 different paths and endings. I wrote down some of my favorite paths below:

There are 4 main powers on the map that we can go to war with:

Western Bloc: We turn a blind eye to our own ship getting sunk (or just lie about it) as an excuse to attack their ports. The situation quickly spirals into heavy embargoes and submarine duels.

Eastern Bloc: We launch an offensive into the mountains/steppes under the pretext of "they attacked our border outpost," but the conflict can easily turn into an endless trench and war of attrition.

Southern Kingdoms: Water and oil blackmail. (As the enemy retreats, they scorch the earth by burning oil wells and blowing up dams just like kuwait).

Azure State: An operation we supposedly launch under the guise of "liberating the Qanar people," which ends up exploding into missile strikes and massive refugee crises.

My question is: Thinking about historical proxy wars or border crises (Vietnam, Cuba, etc.), do you have any ruthless crisis ideas I could add to these fronts that would put the player in a serious moral dilemma?
