Indeed, but my point was that war reduces the ammount of non-order/reports that are sent, in at least a significant number of cases, making it thus debatable that war truly has a net positive impact, at least not in all cases.
If that's the case, you're doing war wrong. Lyonesse was fairly quiet for quite some time until the war with Darka broke out, and its more active than ever as a result, and the amount of non orders/scout reports crushes the number of orders/scout reports sent/received in the realm.
