I play this as a game not a historical treatise. It still teaches a lot about the history of the cold war and any illogical game elements are largely irrelevant. To make it realistic you would have to change the BG countries as you play I think. All choices made in the game can be justified by reference to one or more events that occurred. But to expect the game to do that, especially as it covers a highly complex and varied topic, is unrealistic I think.It's still fun to talk about this though. But the game works as it is which is fine by me. If I want to know more I study elsewhere to find out.
