War Diplomatics and Neutrality

[Martin71727]

I think it would be a good idea to give each player the choice of take a position in each war. For example, if "A" is in war with "B", you can declare yourself neutral, or take choice for one of them. If you take choice for A, you can declare war to B with less penalty.
What do you think about this idea?

As of R&F this already sort of exists: by default you're neutral, but you can use the "Join Ongoing War" option to side with one side or the other.

But you can't try and forge a peaceful outcome like in IV or even V through Diplomacy.

I've proposed this before. I think being able to negotiate peace between AI players would be invaluable.

That being my most common war stance. "Stop the fighting or I'll wreck you."
