Ok, another idea.
(That might be really fun in multiplayer.)
Fighting for Independence together with another Nation
In Diplomacy/Trade-Dialog, there is a trade item "Fighting Independence Together".
You will only be able to trade this with AI if they really really like you.
Of course you could trade it with humans in Multiplayer too.
What this deal means:
If one partner A of this deal declares Independence, the other partner B will declare Indepence also.
Both partners will also declare War to the other partners King.
A will not be able to declare Independence if B is not able and vice versa.
(Meaning checking the Revolutionary Rates.)
Be careful with this deal !
(AI might cause your War of Independence before you really want it.)
If one partner has beaten his King the game is not over yet as long as the other King is not beaten also.
If one Partner is killed, both Kings will focus on the surviving one of course.
If both Kings are beaten, the game is won.
If both partners are still alive, they have both won the game.
(If only one partner alive, then only this partner has won.)
This deal can be made with only one partner.
The deal cannot be cancelled.
(Choose wisely who you ally with.
)
Other effects of this deal:
Once you have this deal with an AI, it will be your best friend forever.
It will always declare war to anyone you declare war on or to anyone that declares war to you and of course it will never declare war to you.
You also cannot declare war to that AI anymore, of course.
(Maybe ussing Teaming in the background ...)
General Comments:
As I said, this could be fun in Multiplayer.
In Singleplayer it would probably not happen very often.
(Except in very hight Difficulty Settings, where AI might really be stronger than you.)
Implementation should not be too complicated.
This feature is not really important to me.
It is more a "
Nice-To-Have" from my point of view.
(Meaning that I would rather put it in list "Undecided" which I would like to rename into "Archive".)
There was simply a time, when I was especially trying to do concepts / features to improve Multiplayer.
(This feature is one of the results ...)
Feature should be implemented as
Game-Option.
Feedback ?
