And yet, war is happening in plenty of other places. The EC has often had problems with alliance-based deadlock causing long peace. That is, in fact, what Too Much Peace was put in to combat. Now that it has been removed, surprise surprise, realms are more reluctant to go to war, and the average player suffers for it.
If regions bounce back too easily, it removes a major element of strategy from the game.
I am not saying regions should recover in a day or a week. They should at least recover in
half a year. Cities take a year to recover. Look at Ibladesh. I wouldn't be surprised if that city takes two years. I am not against having some consequences of losing a war. Why not lower the morale and production to maybe 75% for 3 or 6 months instead of crippling a realm for a year?
What I am trying to say is the current policy is punishing losers too severely. Also, it is slowing down new realms from becoming big enough to fight a war.
