Wars are REALLY rare now
I dont really know what the ♥♥♥♥ did they manage to get broken again, but as new update rolled out i starded new campaing (Battania). Aaaand, literally, even if war with one kingdom starts, it ends after the first random 300 man army is destroyed, enemy or friendly castle taken and all that stuff. Idk but AI now just stops the war in like firs week all the time and 90% of this campaing are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sidequests.

Its really a broken update or battania is the MOST peacefull faction?

Neither? In my current game the Battanians have taken quite a bunch of castles, Epicrotea and Varcheg. I think I'm in year 4 or 5, can't remember. That's without my input, too, as I've yet to side with anyone.

u dont understand why the AI is making war / peace.

if all other factions pay money to your faction, or are very powerfull, your king dont want make war. and if a war starts, your faction want make peace as soon they can make some profit or need to restock troops / militia.

klick to every faction in the kingdom menue and look at the % chance for war. if its more then 50% spend some influence and start a vote for war.
^ Etc.

If you really want all out civil war throughout calradia, use petty kingdoms.

That's the thing, support for war with ALL factions is absolute 0%, despite Western empire and Sturgia being noticably weaker and all that stuff. Its the world of constant 200 denar tributes per day

Your able to declare war on another kingdom you know...
Check the diplomacy tab of your kingdom and see if any are supported in your kingdom.
In my game I play a bettanian guy and got a kingdom from the lands of vlandia, all of bettannia, half sturgia and half of all the empire. My border start at Omor, down to Argoron, Saneopa, Amitatys, Jalmarys and ends at Ortysia.

In my game war never ends. I have war with everyone and all the time, even the khuzait which are so far away from my territory. The whole rest of the map is always red.
I declare peace to one faction and a couple days later its total war again. Its a never ending story and I have no chance doing something else then fighting, fighting and fighting.

This starts right after the Update 1.8. It is really exhausting. The only good thing is that I rise from 2 million Denar up to 8.5 million Denar in a few "years".

Edit: I´m playing an older savegame from the last update and apply to the changes for the new 1.8.

when there is a war, support your faction and capture fort/towns.

the more you capture, the more you will regret even making this post lol.
(if a kingdom is weak, then its logical that war won't be declared on him often, its a feature, its to avoid faction steamrolling. the more you capture and become strong tho, the more faction will be willing to fight for their survival, eventually to the point (when you capture the whole map) that they will never make peace with you, and all will be at war at you, and you lord will slowly defect till you have no choice but accept your kingdom going smaller again or execute every single damn of those lord.

I just ended a 5 month war of stomping the Aserai as a merc Vlandian. The biggest gripe about a "bug" I have is the Armies collecting too much food and ultimately dragging ass slow with like 30 men because they keep getting too much food and slowing down, getting stomped, repeat before a bigger Army forms.

Really? Just had a 2 hour long war with Aserai alligned with Vlandia. A day after that war, Battania declared war. That didn't last as long, but a few days later Aserai declared war again that is still going when the Western Empire declares war

I can do with some peace!

Merc'n for aserai and have a war for about a week and then take a week off.

Kinda hilarious actually.

Havn't run into issue that OP is seeing. Maybe switch factions?

You know, its not absolutely necessary to play the faction you have choosen as a hero race at the creation?
You are able to switch kindgom, serve the other king and if your are not satisfayed with him, just leave and join another kingdom.

And I would say, it is better to start a new game with 1.80. There are too many changes in various branches of the game, so the gameplay feels with 1.8 completely diffirent with 1.80. And mainly let us say - there is more action from the very beginning now.

diplomacy solved that adding the war exhaustion mod, but I won't recommand using it till they update it.
