I have been playing some mods recently and one recurring issue bothers me (and I am sure some of you). Wars started by the AI that have no possibility of resolution due to the distance between the two civs.
This rule should be applied EVEN if the firaxians can figure out how to have the AI conduct longdistance war.
There should be a rule about initiating war (AT LEAST in the first two eras (or early part of the game if no eras):
In order to START a war your borders MUST touch your enemies borders!
Everything else the same - your allies can still help you conduct a war (you are thier proxie for touching the borders). Mutual protection will also still work since your allies enemy would be touching his borders.
What do you guys think?
edit----
I have voted Yes - with modification. Meaning - i would like to see something like this - borders touching or border nearness or wonders that allow distant war in the early ages or some kind of special declare war flag unit (which would be used up when declaring a distant war - perhaps the flag unit would have to be accompanied by an invasion level force).
