The Hatred declaration is strong with this One. One ring to rule them all? ::)

I wonder if people realize just how strong and permanent hatred is... :P

But... but... you hate them! Why not make your people share that hatred too without consulting them? It's for their well-being too!  :(

Wait, did Alara and Minas Nova declare Hatred?

This is madness, from Alara I could somehow understand. But both Eponllyn and Minas Nova at least were pretty foolish in my eyes. Oh well, what's done is done, it can't be changed.

The end result will remain the same. It will just take a bit longer to get to.

Out of curiosity, what effect does stirring up hatred really have in terms of game mechanics? Does it effect TO's or battles?

It makes TO harder of their regions. Not sure if that's only for sympathetic TO or for all of them.

Hatred declared one way is not as permanent as hatred declared both ways!

This is madness, from Alara I could somehow understand. But both Eponllyn and Minas Nova at least were pretty foolish in my eyes. Oh well, what's done is done, it can't be changed.
Perspective. Eppy's makes the most sense when you consider Perdan has been invading Eppy over and over again for ooc years. Alara and Minas Nova seem more overly-sudden, but I'm not in the thick of their Atamaran/Neu-South politics.

It can be changed. As long as its not reciprocal.

Kepler has declared hatred of Evilstani.

Kepler can now:
Use genocide looting option inside Evilstani

Evilstani now has:
Increased cost to use family influence inside Kepler
Increased bribe cost for diplomatic actions by diplomats/ambassadors inside Kepler
Increased chance of scout capture inside Kepler

I guess there should probably be more done. Like a combat adjustment as suggested. There's also quite a few modifiers where war and hatred are the same that could be differentiated.

I am tempted to make the hatred reciprocal just to see what happens. Never been involved in a war that had that.

I was, a long time ago. But that had been a IC rivalry for so long (Sartania vs Arcachon). But if you declare hatred also, you'll be at hatred forever untill one destroys the other. Is the conflict/culture truly deserving of that? There will be no way of 'better relations' when a new government takes over etc.

I mean, they started it. Sure I started the war...but then they had to go and make it all personal. Tsk.

Perleone,
Perleone,
With Greater Xavax you wished to fight,
Where has your honor gone?
The Peasants of Pesh put your army to flight!
Perleone,
Perleone,
Cowards in both word and deed!
In the great forest before our scythes,
King Deklan's manhood wilted like a weed!
Perleone,
Perleone,
So says all of Oc Lu Pesh,
Come back again and instead of wheat,
it will be your soldiers we thresh!


Well, I never claimed to be a poet... ;)

I'd say it's quite nice, but then I must admit I'm not in Xavax or Perleone. If I had a char there, you would be now reading a lyrical counterattack.
