.... If Hosp continued into TAMDA lands and went offensive past regaining Sungetche, then TAMDA would get involved - ...
So if someone out of TAMDA partners goes into war with another faction, and they fail to take them out on their lands, that war does not only backfires onto the original agressor but all TAMDA partners ?
Dudes i would never do such a treaty ^^ if someone wants to play with fire sure, but don't burn down my house.
A Defense Pact is triggered normally by declaration or act of war from the outside onto a Defense Pact Member, i have not yet seen anything in the orignal treaty which would have triggered such a case.
a) there wouldn't be an invasion but a counter attack onto a former invader.
b) The intial war was already there before TAMDA was founded, that the ongoing war would be also be part of this would have needed to be in a separate paragraph
c) As Remantns were contracted through FCC to wage war onto Hospitaller, and gained some of their fiefs because of that i believe, it is very arguable if TAMDA members should in case they help Remnants not also be paid in a similar way as they indirectly would help Remnants with such a contract.( i also read a while back, that that contract is still ongoing is that right?)
I would find such a Pact but quite intriguing and thought about such a thing myself, but i am not sure that people are actually aware of the implications such a treaty brings along, the Defense Pact would switch in case of a certain territorial aspect, into a full alliance treaty, indirectly triggered by anyone who choses to be an agressor!
But it should be made more clear, by naming it in such a way.
On the other hand, if Remnants, after loosing the fiefs which are not part of Tundra or gained through warfare, would decide to make peace with Hospitallers and vice versa, then there would not be a reason for TAMDA to act at all.
After all a Defense Pact is about stability and securing and also in a sense calming folks down.
