On 18 May the Syrian army takes Samakh (Tzemah), at the south end of the Sea of Galilee, and the road north runs through Degania.

Israeli forces crossed into Sinai and reached the outskirts of El-Arish airfield. The Security Council called for a cease-fire, the United States added its pressure, and Britain threatened to act against Israel under its 1936 treaty with Egypt.

כל אירוע נפתח בחלון תאריכים. כשהתור מגיע לחלון, המשחק מציג את הכרטיס לשר האחראי, והשחקן בוחר אפשרות. האפשרות שסומנה כאן "מה שקרה בפועל" היא הבחירה ההיסטורית; האפשרויות האחרות הן חלופות שעמדו על הפרק או הנחות של עיצוב המשחק, וההערות בקובץ האירוע מציינות איפה מדובר בהנחה.
לכל אפשרות יש השפעות על מדדי המשחק, כמו הביטחון, המורל והתמיכה הבינלאומית. הערכים האלה הם איזון של משחק ולא עובדות היסטוריות, ולוח "למה?" מראה בכל תור מה השתנה ומה גרם לכך.
כל האירועים נבדקו מול המקורות שלהם. 10 אירועים עם תגיות רגישות (מלחמה ונפגעים, טרור, שואה) עברו גם בדיקת רגישות, וכלי הבנייה מסרבים לארוז גרסה לשיתוף בלעדיה. שום היסטוריון עדיין לא בדק את המשחק; בדיקה כזו מתוכננת לאבן הדרך M4.
מכיוון ש־GDD v0.1 הוא העיצוב המחייב עכשיו, המנגנון הזה ישתנה: לפי ה־GDD, השלמת מטרה תעלה כרטיס על האירוע ההיסטורי שקשור אליה, עם התאריך האמיתי שלו.
