Team Cyan
Blue, forget red, ally yourselves with cyan. We're rather similar colors, you know.

You're a pain to read on a white background, though. :P

Alright, I'll propose both an alliance with Red and Cyan. The rest of Blue can choose which one we team up with, and whichever one is passed first will be our ally.

The other will still be on friendly terms, though.

Edit: Also, train four more citizens.

You can only have 1 alliance at a time.

I'm placing a rule that you can only form an alliance if at least 2 players from each team agree.
Also, at least 2 players from a team must agree to start a war.
Unless you officially declare someone to be a "foriegn advisor" and the whole team agrees to grant them executive control in diplomacy.
UNACCEPTABLE. YOUR RULE GOES AGAINST THE DICE GOD'S ORDERS.

Which one? Because the one alliance at a time thing is hard-coded, if I remember correctly.

It is hard coded, I can't change that.

As political advisor to the Kingdom of Elephantia, I relinquish all executive control to my liege.

hey mastacheese, can you show us our updated resources and science list. We just spent some resources constructing buildings and doing research and I would like to know how much we have left.

I haven't been able to run the turn yet, I've been busy. I've just been stockpiling orders so that when I can do the update, it'll go more or less smoothly.
When I update, it'll be in the format of the first one, with spoilers for any information you may need.

I'm indifferent on both. I would prefer a non-agression pact with purple, red and cyan, as alliances can get messy.

The blue science advisor however, does chose that if possible, peace between the other nations for a time is fine. If none can be had with them, then I will refuse an alliance with them.

As someone who has never played this game before (nor done any research on it), can someone explain to me how alliances work in this game, how they are formed, what perks they offer how are they disbanded etc.

Never played it before either, but apparently, on the wiki, it says that there are three states of diplomacy between two nations, and it directly affects attrition damage (lack of supplies, which one builds supply wagons for to follow an army with).

They are, in order of peacefulness:
StateAttrition 
- Allies0%
- Peaceful 300%
- At War100%

So, basically, when you're Peaceful with someone, you have a NAP/NAA, since if you try to attack them, all your troops will starve really quickly. If you're allies with them, you can defend them and vice versa, and if you're at war with them, you can attack them and vice versa without much problem. (Except for getting everyone killed.)

I think you can form alliances for free, but it costs wealth to break them.

The attrition rate in peaceful nations' territory is murder.

You are at peace with everyone by default.
Alliances cost nothing, declaring war costs a few hundred or so wealth. Don't recall exact amount.
