<h2>
9.2 COUNTRY SCORING TERMS
</h2>
<p>
<b>Presence:</b> A player has Presence in a country if it controls at
least one space in that country.
<p>
<b>Domination:</b> A player achieves Domination of a country if
he controls more spaces in that country than his opponent and
he controls more Battleground spaces in that country than his
opponent. A player must control at least one non-Battleground
and one Battleground space in a country in order to achieve
Domination of that country.
<p>
<b>Control:</b> A player has Control of a country if he controls more
spaces in that country than his opponent and he controls all of
the Battleground spaces in that country.
</div>
<div class="box" style="background-color:#d4effc">
<h2>
6.2 SUPPORT CHECKS
</h2>
<p>
<b>PURPOSE:</b> To reduce opponent Support in a country, and
possibly to add friendly support if the Support check is successful enough.
<p>
<b>PROCEDURE:</b> Each Strategy Card played for Support Checks
gives two Support Checks to the Phasing Player, regardless of
the card’s Operations value. The player must resolve the first
Support Check before declaring the next target.
<p>
<b>REQUIREMENT:</b> To attempt a Support Check in a space,
the space must have opponent SPs.
<p>
<b>RESOLUTION:</b> Multiply the Stability Number of the target
space by two (x2). Then roll a die, and add the Ops value of
the card played to the die roll plus any DRMs as listed below.
If the modified die roll is greater than the doubled Stability
Number, the Support Check succeeds, and the phasing player
removes opposing SPs equal to the difference from the target
space. If there are insufficient opposing SPs to remove, add
friendly SPs to make up the difference.
<p>
<b>DIE ROLL MODIFIERS:</b>
<ul>
<li>
+1 for each adjacent friendly controlled space
<li>
−1 for each adjacent opponent controlled space
</div>
<div class="box" style="background-color:#ffe4a6">
<h2>
6.3 TIANANMEN SQUARE ATTEMPT
</h2>
<p>
<b>PURPOSE:</b> To move a players Tiananmen Square marker to
the next box on the track.
<p>
<b>PROCEDURE:</b> Roll a die and add the Operations value of the card to the total. Modify this total:
<ul>
<li>
+1 if the card played is the player’s own Event.
<li>
+1 if this is the second or subsequent attempt to advance to the box.
<li>
+1 if the <i>‘Li Peng’</i> Event is in play and the attempting player is the Communist.
</ul>
<p>
<b>SUCCESS:</b> If the total matches or exceeds the number required to advance to next box (printed in the box in the color
of the appropriate player), the player moves his marker forward
to the new box.

<h2>
POWER STRUGGLE SEQUENCE
</h2>
<p class="ind">
<b>1. Deal Cards:</b> The players are dealt cards from the Power
Struggle deck based upon the number of spaces they control
in the country.
<p class="ind">
<b>2. Raise the Stakes:</b> Players may choose to increase the rewards and
penalties of the Power Struggle by discarding 3 of their Power Struggle cards
<p class="ind">
<b>3. Play Cards:</b> Players play Power Struggle cards one at a time,
until the winner of the Power Struggle is determined.
<p class="ind">
<b>4. Aftermath:</b> After the winner of the Power Struggle is
decided, there are two die rolls. The first determines how
much Support the loser must remove from the country, and
the second determines how many Victory Points the winner
receives (and, if the winner is the Democrat, whether or not
the Communist is toppled from power).
<p class="ind">
<b>5. Scoring:</b> Finally, the country is scored according to the rules
in section 9.1, with the VP marker moving accordingly.
</ol>
<p>
Note: all steps of a Power Struggle must be completed before
checking the VP marker for auto-victory.
<h2>
AFTERMATH DIE ROLL MODIFIERS
</h2>
<p class="ind">
−2 modifier to both rolls if a <b>Petition</b> was used to win the Power Struggle.
<p class="ind">
+2 modifier to both rolls if a Rally in the Square was used to win the Power Struggle.
<p class="ind">
+1 modifier to both rolls if either player <b>Raised the Stakes</b> in the Power
Struggle, add a +1 for each player who did so. (Even if the player who Raised
the Stakes loses, the +1 modifier still applies.)
<p class="ind">
+1 modifier to both rolls if the ‘Yakovlev Counsels Gorbachev’ Event is in
effect and the Democrat won the Power Struggle.
