can we have greater focus on diplomatic options? I dont want to fight a devastating total war of attrition after 1900 and find that after all my sacrifice and the millions of lives lost my only options in victory are a few provinces or the release of some provinces as vassals. It would be cool to involve allies in a Paris Peace conference style screen where you can reshape the world including colonies, government regimes etc in one swoop. I think it adds some interesting dynamics to the style of gameplay and rewards ambition. it wouldn't be an exploit if you had to lobby and trade with your allies first on how to carve up the world, ie. France cant carve up Ottoman Syria all for herself if she was allied with England, FRA would have to offer ENG half of the conquest because the two empires are about equally as powerful early game. the ability to take provinces in peace without actually having captured those provinces would be nice too. It makes no sense as ENG sending armies deep into Africa just to acquire German colonies in the Congo. The only reason ENG should want to battle Germany in the jungles of the Congo would be for strategic reasons.
