If you want players to fight each other, then I'd imagine you'd just want to eliminate groupable law NPCs and bounty NPCs completely.

Your lips are moving, but all I hear is "Bla bla bla I still haven't rolled a darkie"

So why have tribunal alliances at all? I must just ask. Seems a bit silly, given the 'guards stay at home attitude.' Then a PC guard should stay at home to defend the kingdom the same as an NPC guard. There shouldn't be a separation. [Honestly, I think this is backbumwards myself and see reason for consideration for a change.]

Why have tribunal alliances? It is called roleplay.

It is kinda amusing though, because I think that tribunal alliances actually cost slightly more money to "maintain" from the tribunal coffers than truces. Maybe there's another hidden benefit that I don't know about, but one can basically surmise from this that players are only penalized for being in alliances with tribunals.

Obviously then, there aren't supposed to be alliances. We're supposed to be PKing each other into deletion. Get with the program for Sargas's sake!

"Hey, Seldarith, I'm thinking about traveling to Kol's Moot."

"Seriously, Regent? I ought to go along! You know, just in case something should happen to you in the snowy white North."

"Afterward, I'm going to get some jasmine tea in Nerina."

"Well, Regent, that's when I'll be coming home. There are guards there to protect you, and I ought to tend to our citizens."

"Alright, Seldarith. That makes sense."

I think a more sensible system than taking guards from your kingdom everywhere with you might be one that allows temporary recruitment in an allied land of the troops there when there is an active attack. Probably a fair nightmare to code, but wouldn't Balacha recognize you as an ally just as easily as an Immune could see that you were an enemy? Just my musings on the subject.

It is kind of weird that alliances cost more than truces, though.

Yeah, bring Seldarith, right. Never know when you might need a mage to randomly cast fly on himself.
