an attempt to allow British game in Egypt and Sudan

[Christophe.Barot]

You remember Gordon ? Khartum, Omdursman ? is presently hard to see an Anglo-Egyptian army to fight the mahdi, and actually any british going through Egypt, as Egypt is a full independant nation British troops can't even cross
oh, well, while nominally independant, Egypt was at the times, like persia and Morrocco, a de facto protectorate
- so here is an attempt (way to treat Egypt will have to be discussed, but here is the first test)


SelectFaction = $CMN // will allow to all to see it
SelectRegion = $Quairo
StartEvent = evt_nam_GBR_EgyptianTakeover|1|1|evt_txt_GBR_EgyptianDebt1876|Event-img_GBR_EgyptianDebt1876|$Quairo|NULL // will write strings of text and copy an accurate image of either Arab landscape or british troops from other events

Conditions
MinDate = 1882/04/01
MaxDate = 1919/12/31 // is just for the test
Probability = 100 // more testing and tuning about conditions later

SetSOIVals = GBR;$Colony_Egypt;5 [color="#FF0000"]// could have set some for other nations, in future will be 4 for GBR 2 for FRA -1 for Italy and severe penalty for all others (but TUR) - seems not having worked
