Mutual Protection Pact woes...
Okay, this is kinda annoying but not a HUGE deal...

I signed a mutual protection pact with rome and babylon, and they also had a mutual protection pact with each other. So I declare war on persia for a border dispute... rome and babylon join in... great!

So I finish conquering what I needed, and I make peace with persia... I was smart enough to cancel my pacts with babylon and rome before hand so I wouldn't automaticaly re-declare war.

Now here's the funny part, until the game's end, rome and babylon go through a cycle of one civ making peace with persia then declaring war the turn after due to the pact... this must of happened at least a dozen times...

I think that when you have a mutual protection pact, and one AI makes peace... the other AI(s) should immediately ask for peace if they currently desire it. But as I saw, both rome and babylon wanted peace with persia... but since they asked for it at different times the mutual protection pact kept them in war!

What I've seen is:
You automatically declare war. No options.
When you sign a peace treaty, you're off the hook. You don't need to re-declare war unless your partner signs a pease treaty, but then goes to war again.

As long as you initially declair war, you're fine.

This is, of course, based on my (so far) limited experience.

You are so anti-america that having a conversation with you would be poinless. You may or maynot feel you are an enemy of the United States, I don't care either way. However if I still worked for the Goverment I would turn over your e-mail address to my bosses and what ever happen, happens.
