Dude, not cool. On several levels. Walk it back.
It's well thought out, but it's too...silent of a victory. I'd prefer something BOMBASTIC!
Maybe something like a tech/culture victory combined with having the US recognize Doofania as an independent country. That sounds like a fun, big goal to strive towards while still avoiding the nasties of open warfare.
The more people that want to live here, that means we have a growing economy of people that appreciate Doof's rule.
You forgot Aliens and AIs.
The smog protects from satellite imagery.
It would be interesting to see Doof switch to a new way to show his power after he gets bored with what he has now.
Whoops almost forgot about them, thanks.
Probably not. They wouldn't destroy air purifiers. I don't doubt they're around, but we'll need to try to figure it out.
Building an army isn't at all what I meant when I said "tech/culture victory" without the "nasties of war." It's kinda the exact opposite. To me, a victory is transformative - it evokes a kind of change for better or worse. Your plan is well thought out, but it doesn't change anything. There is nothing to actually seek out, and nothing is accomplished. The only thing it aids in is consolidation. It is a status quo end.
We had hidden chances to recruit them earlier, but we just never picked the options with those hidden chances.
