* The trade pact turn bonus will be changed to granting a flat extra turn per day per active ally.

* The positive event boom bonus point cost for the communist government will be reduced from 6 points to 2 points.

* Spy technology will also increase the 20% cashing bonus by the stated percentage. For example, spy effectiveness at 125% will result in a cashing bonus of 25% and spy effectiveness at 155% will result in a cashing bonus of 31%.

* SDI technology will now grant a guaranteed extra PS brigade slot for every 15% tech and will grant a percentage chance between the different cutoffs. Some examples:

- 1% SDI: 6.6% chance of an extra PS brigade slot
- 15% SDI: 1 extra PS brigade slot
- 30% SDI: 2 extra PS brigade slots
- 67.5% SDI: 4 extra PS brigade slots with a 50% chance of 1 additional slot
- 90% SDI: 6 extra PS brigade slots
- 99% SDI: 6 extra PS brigade slots with a 60% chance of 1 additional slot

* NPC countries will likely keep somewhat less cash on hand compared to previous rounds.

Interesting indeed.
