War

When two teams declare war, a number of different things occur. Firstly, all bases, drones, and players of one team become aggressive towards the other. Secondly, the PVP range is increased, meaning some players that previously could not attack each other due to range restrictions now can. Thirdly, declaring war on another team means that owned galaxies can easily be taken over, thereby allowing one team to expand its territory (at the risk of losing its own, of course).

Declaring war on another team costs credits depending on a number of different factors. Generally, declaring war is expensive, not just in the act itself, but the aftermath as well. Because of this most teams avoid it. However, there have been many large wars in Star Sonata history, some of which rendered entire chains of galaxies dead and deserted. Sometimes war is unavoidable, and if the Director of a team decides that it is necessary, he will require the War Mongering skill to do so.
