This change would allow a region to formally "annex" another. This would work in much the same way as embassies, but would be displayed differently on the region page.
The intention of this change is to:
- Give an outcome to an invasion that raiders can aim for.
- Give in-game recognition to the control that some regions exert over others.
Any region could annex another, or be annexed by one.
The following aspects in particular need further discussion:
- How long it takes to annex a region, and to "de-annex" it.
- What influence cost there is for annexation.
- How an annexation is displayed on the region page both for the annexing and the annexed region.
- Whether a specific page should be introduced to record in-game "empires".
Discussion in this thread is open to everyone. Please use this thread for discussion of this change only - off-topic posts, regional bickering and so on will be dealt with swiftly and punished for as necessary.
