RB Wrote:Yossarian,
I talked with my team, and I've included our official proposal for the deal we suggested. We were mostly fine with dropping your half of the opt-out, but we would like to protect WPC if possible, so we kept an exception in for that. I also tied up some loopholes and included EP/OB things as well. Please let me know if you have any questions, clarifications, or concerns and I'd be happy to discuss them! This isn't necessarily meant to be a take-it-or-leave-it offer, so do keep that in mind if there's a major issue in here. I don't expect there will be any surprises though.
Thanks!
scooter - Team RB
Quote:NAP Extension Proposal
1) Current Deals
A) All current deals are still in effect until their expiration on T175.
B) These cannot be canceled in any way except for the opt-out clause in Section 2A-C
2) Opt-out Clause
A) If at any point during the length of this agreement (expiring on T200) Realms Beyond declares war on another team, CFC can choose to opt-out of all current agreements with RB if they believe it's in their team's interest to do so.
B) If at any point during the length of this agreement (expiring on T200) CFC declares war on WPC, Realms Beyond can choose to opt-out of all current agreements with CFC if they believe it's in their team's interest to do so.
C) The window for this is 3 turns. Example: If RB declares war on a neighbor during T168, CFC has until the end of T171 to notify RB that they would like to opt out of their agreements with RB. After the 3T window is closed, the agreements can no longer be canceled unless an opt-out condition is triggered again.
D) The opt-out does not apply to any other wars not explicitly covered by 2A-B. This means none of the following qualify: on-going wars, wars in which a 3rd party declares on RB, non-WPC wars which CFC initiates, or anything else that does not explicitly follow section 2A-B.
E) This opt-out clause takes effect immediately upon agreement of the deal by both sides.
F) Exception: Team RB has made it clear to our neighbors that if they use spies to revolt our civics or religion, we consider that to be an act of war. If one of our neighbors does that to us, we will consider that to be a declaration of war on us, so we would be free to officially declare war in game and retaliate without opening up the opt-out window. RB does not expect this to happen, because we either have spy agreements or very clear warnings with all of our neighbors.
3) T175-T200 agreement
A) NAP agreement from T175-T200, which goes into effect immediately upon the previous deal expiring.
B) EP agreement to target EPs at other teams as long as both sides are able to view graphs. RB and CFC will not run EP missions against each other.
C) Extension of Open Borders throught he duration of the agreement.
D) No NAP loopholes or exploitation. This includes:
-No gifting (or trading) units, gold, or strategic resources to a nation the other side is at war with. If such deals are in place prior to a war, they must be canceled if a war begins. Example: If RB is trading iron to a neighbor of CFC and a war breaks out between that neighbor and CFC, RB will cancel the trade immediately. Note: Brand new trades must wait 10T to cancel, so if advance warning is provided, it must be followed. If it is not provided, then the deal must be canceled on the earliest possible turn. Health resources and non-strategic luxuries are not covered by this provision and are free to trade.
-No doing damage to land/units/resources that the other has claim to, even if cultural borders allow it (example: pillaging in the BFC of recently captured/razed cities).
-No granting Right of Passage to and/or aiding an army that has the intent of hurting the other party or giving tactical scouting info to the 3rd party.
E) By "Expiring on T200" that means the deal is effective through EOT199. During T200, the deal is no longer in effect.
