Pausing Annexation

[Sian]

It would be handy if there were some way to pause Annexation, even if the diplomat stayed around and/or a smaller drain on monarch points. I recently had a case of a game getting 'destroyed' by getting hit by a couple of bad events draining my diplomacy points, which drained the supply of points that i had (ran at a small negative) which caused me not to have enough points to continue the annexation of both of my vassals, only continuing one of them, which was the least important. Followed by them being a month appart and as soon as the first one was completly annexed the diplomatic reputaion tanked enough that the second (more important) went disloyal and promptly got its independence supported by someone much stronger than me.

Its already a powerful tool of expansion, making it more so might make it a bit too OP, I like the idea but I am very hesitant to agree with it as it is.

I argee that its a very powerful tool, thats why i'm suggesting it still tying down the diplomat (so you can't pause the annexation for sending him doing something else) and that it might still drain a small ammount of Monarch Points, doing effectively nothing. Say, 2diplo points per month (as the base) prehaps?

Yeah a minimal cost should have to be a thing, I think if you make it more than 1 people just wont use it though.
