Gee whiz! I've been playing this game for years and I never knew that.

Just another example of how appallingly deep SEIV is.

I always play with "view entire tech tree" and "can see all scores" on, and assumed that the treaty grid was similarly transparent.

The bloody Caspians have 500+ ships and more than 100 planets, so I think SOMEBODY should be at war with them. They have not taken any systems from me, that's for sure.

I'm getting intel-attacked every turn by just about every multi-system empire out there. The Ferengi. The Cardassians. The Klingons. The Kazon. And of course the bloody filthy Caspians.

All of them are refusing gifts from me, ignoring my general messages and rejecting my pleas for a trade treaty.

They'd better wise up, or the Caspians are going to swallow them for sure.
