My biggest criticism of this game is that you can't throw support Thälmann at the end unless you've put substantial effort into building relations with the KPD. It says something like, "They won't allow us to support them," like what?? Meanwhile, even if the bourgeois parties hate you, you can still support them into government to "maintain stability" while getting nothing in exchange!

I guess if you could simply support Thälmann, it would make stopping Hitler too easy and wouldn't be much of a game.
