If you post a serious answer i will update my post to include it. Discussion begin. To start it off i think deterrence will be pretty big. It would be cool if yoou guys could post a link story or explain the disad a little bit Deterrence Allied Prolif (Insert Topic Country) Politics Domestic Politics Relations Red Spread (Russia) Red Spread (China) NATO Cohesion (N/B to Consult NATO) Civil-Military Relations (N/B to Consult JCS) Resolve DA Japan Re-Arm DA Econ DA (I'm assuming that Finance Reform and DOD Spending can just be placed under the label of Economy Disads; correct me)\ Climate Change ptix Crime DA-withdrawal of troops will cause Organized Crime to flourish because there are no US troops there as a security presence. State Department Focus- State dept focused on X now - Plan makes them shift focus - Focus / capital is limited - X is good Japan renuclerization PMC disad Econ on transportation costs Redeployment DA, then Also, START politics Israel DA Turkey Coup DA (withdrawal causes Kurdish coup) and general relations disads - ENDI released a massive relations file Edited August 6, 2010 by Mr. T 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thefrozenone 191 Report post Posted June 29, 2010 Is Prolif the same as deterrence? Also, Resolve DA and Japan Re-Arm DA - basically incarnations of Hege Good DAs... A lot of these files are already up on camp wikispaces. GDS has released a DOD Spending DA and CNDI has released a Finance Reform DA. So that puts the list at... Deterrence Allied Prolif (Insert Topic Country) Politics Domestic Politics Relations Red Spread (Russia) Red Spread (China) NATO Cohesion (N/B to Consult NATO) Civil-Military Relations (N/B to Consult JCS) Resolve DA Japan Re-Arm DA Econ DA (I'm assuming that Finance Reform and DOD Spending can just be placed under the label of Economy Disads; correct me) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bond1 12 Report post Posted June 29, 2010 (I'm assuming that Finance Reform and DOD Spending can just be placed under the label of Economy Disads; correct me) I would say that Tradeoff DA's should be kept seperate from Econ DA's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thefrozenone 191 Report post Posted June 29, 2010 I would say that Tradeoff DA's should be kept seperate from Econ DA's. Okay. The DOD Spending DA isn't a tradeoff DA though...or at least I don't think so... It's more of a Defense Budget DA. The file itself is right here...http://georgetowndebateseminar.wikispaces.com/files Again, correct me if I am wrong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thefrozenone 191 Report post Posted June 29, 2010 (edited) Great thread; thanks for making this sort of unified list. I was also thinking some sort of Crime DA, basically, withdrawal of troops will cause Organized Crime to flourish because there are no US troops there as a security presence. If you've ever impact turned a Security or Biopower K, the Crime DA is basically that. Maybe I'll end up calling it the "Gotham" Disad.
