Life is Feudal Official Forum

[Wigster600]

Hi, just had an idea for this, when a building is destroyed or a person is killed (not degradation or natural causes), a lord of a faction can blame it on someone else or claim it as something, he can say another faction did it, giving them something like cause points towards that faction and the blamed faction can say "yes, we did that" or "No, we didn't" and can have faction relations drop and cause increase, giving either side a certain amount of cause points needed if they want to start a war. (presuming that you need cause points to start one.)
Thanks

Yes it is exactly like that.

The five diplomatic states of LiF are: war, hostile, neutral, friendly and ally. When two or more realms/kingdoms are at war they can: kill players of the opposing faction without alignment reduction, begin extracting resources from enemy territory and can initiate battles and sieges. More on battles, sieges and RvR at Massive PvP battles and sieges in Life is Feudal.

I am already 100% sure there will be forum things like what you said there going on causing more than enough reason for Drama and Wars.

As a forced game mechanic? No thank you, I prefer freedom to manipulate a guilds politics.

Isn't this just something very natural? I mean you wouldn't need any gameplay mechanics to have it.

A leader will be able to set this on a whim. So if he wakes up pissy one day he could start a giant war but he will have to keep in mind his political standing and influence just like leaders had to in the dark ages.

I would almost be willing to bet there will be a forum section devoted to this activity. I believe Bobik is a big supporter of guild/political drama so stay tuned.

Yes Saxxon I know and I was referring directly to the OP's suggestion.

not a fan of having points for such things I think blaming someone for something bad that happened should occuring in game, it wouldn't be hard to convince many and maybe on the forums if need be.
