Hey all,
Playing Galactic Civ II has brought one thing to my attention (big time). When I'm playing... it always seems that at some point some other race will get the idea that they can defeat me (which somehow never seems to work), so they demand a huge tribute from me... then go to war when I refuse to pay it. The problem that occurs it because of the alliance system in short I have literally every other race in the game (often a couple minor races thrown in) now running to attack me (Race A is allied with B which is allied with C... and so on) despite any previous relationships with them (they can be close, etc... it doesn' t matter).
Is there any way to change the considerations that races have when they're faced with going to war due to an alliance (giving them the option to break an alliance, etc instead of going into war) or to stop these super alliances from *always* forming? (I can understand them forming if you're a huge race thats bent on destruction, but not in every situation)
