sunrise089 Wrote:@TT and Selrahc: I've raised this in another thread, but keep in mind that some people take NAPs much more seriously than others. If S+S signed a NAP with Athlete some (read: sunrise089) would say they don't have a right to break it. If they want to be able to break it over gifted cities the time to agree to that was when the NAP was being negotiated.
I guess it's a different view of what an NAP means, but to me taking the other person's cities (essentially coming in on the other side of a war) and pillaging improvements is something I would define as an aggressive act that thus voids the NAP. I guess the difference is whether you view an NAP as simply "won't declare war" or whether it is "Non Aggression Pact". If it is the later, in my opinion it has already been broken by accepting the cheese gifts. (for the record, in other games if someone does do cheese gifts on me, the person accepting them better be able to defend them in game!)
