That´s true. There are other problems as well, e.g. that traditional enemies suddenly will develop neutral or even good relations to one another (Russia/Poland) so that no fighting occurs. It´s ALL a sideeffect of the new relations issue in the end. If this will be fixed, everything will be back on track again.
