Country Panic (LWR)

In General

Each country has a panic value (represented by 5 bars, each bar equal to 20 panic). This panic value indicates how unstable each country is. Having high panic makes it easier for the aliens to mount denser abduction missions and makes it more likely for the country to leave the Council of Nations at the end of each month.

Some events will increase panic in a country, some will increase panic across a continent, and a few will increase panic worldwide. These effects all stack. For example: if an event caused 1 panic in a country, 1 panic across a continent that contained that country, and 1 panic worldwide; the country would actually gain 3 panic total, other countries in the continent 2 panic total, and the remaining countries in the world would gain 1 panic.

Increasing Country Panic

All increases in panic are both modified by Campaign Length and increased by 10% per month

Airborne:

Air Raids / Bombing Runs +9 in country Reduced by any damage taken, down to 0 at 50% damage	Any UFOs +1 in country Reduced to 0 if any damage is taken Does not include air raids / bombing runs	Crashed/Landed UFO Escapes +2 in country

Failed Missions:

Abduction Failure +3 in country +3 across continent x2 if city panic was 21-40, x3 is city panic was 0-20	Terror Site Failure Country suffering from terror mission leaves immediately +10 across continent	Exalt Covert Op Extraction / Data Recovery Failure +10 in country	Exalt Base Raid Failure Triggers Exalt Propaganda in a random country Country of Exalt Base leaves immediately +40 across continent if Exalt Base country already left council nations

Other:

Losing a satellite

+4 in country
+4 across continent

Terror Site Creation

+15 in country
+4 across continent

Exalt Propaganda

+20 in country

Exalt False Accusation

Country of Exalt Base leaves immediately
+40 across continent if Exalt Base country already left council nations|}

Decreasing Country Panic

Airborne:

Shooting down a UFO -1 in country

Satellites:

Launching a satellite -3 in country	End of month satellite coverage -2 in country (50% chance if panic is >= 80, 10% chance of if panic is >= 50)

Mission Completions:

Thwarting an abduction -1 in country, -1 across continent	Completing a covert operation -2 in country	Council mission reward variable (country panic)
Raiding a UFO -1 in country	Terror Site For each civilian saved, decrease panic generated by 1 in country and 0.3 across continent (Note: you can actually reduced panic overall if you save enough civilians)	Raiding an alien base -10 in country, -5 across continent	Raiding Exalt base -5 worldwide

Country Defection

At the end of the month, a country may leave the council if their panic is in the last bar (80 or higher panic with a red color). Note that aliens can run an infiltration mission to cause a country to leave immediately.

Defection Chance: 5% for each panic above 80 (minimum of 1% starting at 80 panic)
Defection Chance * 0.8 if there is one or more satellites on same continent
Defection Chance * 0.5 if the country has a satellite (does not stack with reduction from satellites on the same continent)
