I think there should be some sever penalties when using these kind of
backstabing tricks:
- a change that the WM attacks you.
- the WM freezes your bankaccount.
Well that's basically true, but many regions start small with low GDP/c ratings and insufficient resources which makes them very dependent on WM, at least until they grow big(er). That is why I asked for mechanism in which you can pick a fight with specific region. Maybe creating a territorial dispute or making military maneuvers along someone’s border should do it (create causus belli against you). Also, it IS realistic as we have numerous examples of that sort of actions (creating tensions deliberately in order to achieve some political goal) in real life.
I like the idea on more military aggressive WM (there is even an option in game for that, although it seems not to do anything right now) but I don't agree with bank account freeze - bank account of some region is not the property of WM as WM is not a bank. Denying you WM membership is closes best thing and is already in.
If you have more allies they won't attack you....
I think it would be great if the AI breaks treaties with you....
Problem is that regions that are far away will declare war on you as well, and they won’t agree to peace treaty afterwards either. That will put you on a very looong DEFCON 3 or lower economy on large maps (like Europe) and is bad thing for small region.
I would also like to see AI break treaties if his causus belli gets high enough (near 100) or his allies’ regional integrity drops low. There should be much less diplomatic consequences for breaking alliance in such cases as well.
