I propose a few rules on how simcountry wars are conducted such as banning poison gas, chemical warfare and nuclear warfare. Additionally Prisoners of War should be treated properly. Finally wars should not be started for no reason and there must be at least a reason why not just because. See a list of proposed reasons below.

#1 Economic Gain
#2 Territorial Gain
#3 Religion
#4 Nationalism
#5 Revenge
#6 Civil War
#7 Revolutionary War
#8 Defensive/Preemptive War
#9 Threat of War
#10 Threat of Communism
#11 Threat of Enemy Preparedness
#12 Hatred

Wars are ALWAYS started for a reason. Why is it important for you to understand the reason? I'm sure the person pushing the declare war button understands.

You left out several of my favorites.

#13 Stealing oxygen
#14 Refusing to move your state property outside my map lines.
#15 Refusing to sell Investment Fund shares.
#16 Painting your tanks Pink or any other color I might see as Pink.
#17 Boredom
#18 Misspeelling of a common word :)
#19 Improper use of a pronoun.
#20 Owning a yellow cat.

I can probably think of at least that many more depending on the situation.

In an active and vibrant game coming up with reasons NOT to go to war is more productive. (If they ever get back to that sort of thing in Sim Country)

As far as treatment of Prisoners?, who takes prisoners?

yikes....more war restrictions???!!!

How about....
-no war restrictions
-defend yourself (or make friends who can)
-no war levels

the GM's have already taken almost every bit of warfare away from us.....any more restrictions and you might as well call this game Mr. Rogers Neighborhood

Good idea we can add #13-#20 reasons. When the June First war starts it will be for a lot of reasons.

#48 It's friday
#49 Because some guy looked at you side eye at popeye's chicken because you got a three piece and took the last biscuit. Man, keep your eyes in your head, that's my biscuit. Oops, I blew up your capitol.

I don't know why we are having this discussion.......war is dead

There isn't war

There won't be war

They killed this game when they made the changes

If you want to play this game, might as well face the fact that it's an econ game....half of the game is gone

It really should be half the cost to keep my membership active....I only get half the game now
