Options for meeting the mutual defense treaty

Post by tkobo »

Id like the mutual defense treaty to have options on how to help the signies (sp) defense.


For instance,while i can always declare war on the region(A) attacking the region (B) I have the treaty with, i will not always be in a position to actaully fight that war.
I could have no geographical way to get my units into combat, I might not have enough units that i can send any,etc...

BUT i might be able to still send that region (B) tons of cash or resources to help in its defense banker style.

SO, what I am asking for,is for the email asking me to honor the mutual defense treaty give me ways other than direct open conflict, to do so.

So the email asking me to honor the treaty would look something like this :

Mutual Defense Treaty invoked

Region B is under attack and we have signed a Mutual defense pact with them.
1)We must declare war on Region A to honor our treaty .
2)We must supply cash to Region B to honor our treaty .
3)We must supply resources to Region B to honor our treaty .
4) We must send equipment to Region B to honor our treaty .

1) results in the automatic declaration of war
2) results in the automatic dilpomatic trade of cash-with no catch
3) results in the automatic dilpomatic trade of resources - with no catch
4) results in the automatic dilpomatic trade of units in reserve -with no catch

Amounts for 2 and 3 should be based on a percentage of treasury(if cash) or stock(if resource).
Number 4 should result in the trade of a percentage of units in reserve.

This way we can honor the treaty even IF we cant actaully fight the war.

Yes, 4 would require that other issue to be solved :P

Don't look for this one anytime soon (aka Update 3), but it is definitely an idea I like and I've put in my future development list.
