i think it's a mode that the game needs. he deserves to improve

well in the base game, all of my battles are half a year

*correction - it is x30 times longer battles. First, frontline score towards creating battles is generated x3 slower, but also, the frontline score needed to start a battle has been increase x10, so it's x30 slower for battles to just start

this is just straight up comical - 10x longer battle ticker? Nah thx

Good that you are trying to tweak the econcmy around warfare. Going to try this mod. What I am really is after though is something that changes warfare, it is horrific in this game.
If the result is as Alex says, that no new wars are being started, that would be really good. Then a player can ignore warfare all together and focus on the parts of this game that is working.

If a war will now last three times longer, while still locking you out of starting new diplomatic plays, then al the big/medium countries would be in an almost constant state of being unable to start any new ones.

Also, raising defense? The game already favors the defenders disproportionally, making the situation worse isn't going to improve balance.

Removed changes to Diplomatic Play duration.

Make a lite version.

You should remove the one diplomatic play/war limitation, otherwise, everyone will be locked out from starting them.
