Very interesting variant there, Animalmother. I will try this out. I always wondered what they were doing, making Turkey part of Western Europe and treating it as a non-BG. It had one of the largest armies in NATO and would have been a nightmare for NATO if it were in the Warsaw Pact.Also, Israel was an interesting part of the Cold War puzzle, which the game as-it-is does not do justice.
I would point out that your change makes Domination and Control of Europe a bit more difficult, by adding a sixth European BG state, Israel.
