Ally declares war on me

[lordvagrant]

My Ally just declared war on me when I joined a war to support him:

Me : Kingdom of Georgia
Allies : Kingdom of Abbasid, Sultanate of Seljuk Turks


Sept 11, 1107 : Sheikdom of Al Amarah declared war upon Kingdom of Abbasid.
12 : We are at war with Uthman Sheik of Al Amarah. (I supported my ally against a rebellious vassel)
12 : Sheikdom of Al Nasiryah declared war upon us!
12 : Kingdom of Abbasid declared war upon us!
12 : Sultanate of Seljuk Turks declared war upon Kingdom of Abbasid.
12 : Sultanate of Seljuk Turks declared war upon Sheikdom of Al Nasiryah.
12 : Sheikdom of Basra declared war upon us!


... try to help some people/not get a bad rep from not supporting allies, and what do you get?

Kingdom of Abbasid was probably allied.

I had a situation where Country A had vassals B and C. Loyalty was falling in the vassals, so much so they could enter alliances with other nations. Vassals B and C wound up allying with each-other.

Then vassal B rebels, so A and B are at war. A calls on me to declare war on B, so I do. B calls for C's alliance help, and C declares war on me! Then A declares are on me, becausing I'm at war with his other vassal!

I reloaded the game at that point. Alliances can really mess things up.
