[quote=Dutchbag] Your treaty order is an order reserved to sign a treaty. It can't be used on anything else. All effects of a treaty will be ratified by your signature. You can still use regular orders to sign treaties, but acts of war are confined to war orders. [/quote] Wait, why do we have to use orders to RATIFY treaties? Stein didn't say anything about that in the first post and I thought you could just sign them in an IC post?:confused I understand this isn't Outcast's game, but that's how it worked over there. I believe in that game you only need to use an order on treaties if you are giving up something (land, money, etc.) and that otherwise you could sign them willy-nilly like Dedonus was doing. We really need Stein to weigh in on this as I would rather not waste all of my orders on treaties that only say words with no real action behind them (i.e. giving up land, money, etc.)...:confused
