Suggestion: Military Tradition During War

[SignedName]

I suggest that military tradition shouldn't decay when fighting a war. Of course this is with the caveat that armies/navies should be at full maintenance. If this is too overpowered, it could be a percentage reduction instead. The point of my suggestion is just that army/navy tradition shouldn't decay at the same rate during peace and war.

Well it doesn't as long as you are fighting and participating since you get small increases. With the patch next week giving forts AT at full maintenance, you will 'kind of' have your wish since having forts manned during war is pretty necessary.

While an increase in tradition would be a little much, tradition staying the same makes sense.

No decay could be a little bit OP given how easy it is to stay constantly at war. How about this: *while war taxes are raised*, your tradition doesn't decay (or it decays at a reduced rate). That way there's an ongoing cost, and you aren't just keeping your tradition up for free.

Another option would be to have army/navy tradition decay rate affected by army/fleet maintenance regardless of whether or not you're at war. If you keep your forces at full combat readiness, they'll remember how to fight better than if they've been underfunded for years before war breaks out.
