Seriously, of all the little nitpicks one can have with Diplomacy...this might be the stupidest of the bunch. I'm positioning my army near Persia's shores (as Denmark), and he tells me that he has spotted my army and tells me to get out or declare war. Now since I wasn't positioned properly yet and he had a pretty well-sized fleet, I decided to stay away. So I go to another continent, invade Siam, take 3 of their 4 cities, and thus we're a few 100 years further when my fleet returns...and STILL I can't invade without the "You broke your promise" penalty?
Seriously, this is so STUPID. I can see HIM amassing a huge army at MY borders but I can't tell him to either man up or leave, but they can do that to me? What's the reasoning?
