That's not spiteful! That's just good business practice, a friendly boost to the health sector of your neighbor's economy. Keep the doctors and nurses busy and whatnot.

Ah, vfb, that armageddon comment on the first page cracked me up. Who knows why

Also, unrest is max 500. I know, my capitol has it in Discharge.

But what really annoys people up is a huge van army sitting in their lands, grabbing 15-ish provinces in one turn, then moving out with taxes at 200 to siege all the castles they can horde to. Add in a friendly neighbor of Helheim who's doing the same at exactly the same time to the same target, and you've got a nice economic crumble in one turn.

I find it's possible to have quite a bit of fun even while losing (which I have a habit of ) . Set a goal even if it has little bearing on an inevitable loss... "I'm going to take out Tart #47 but I die".

Another option is to "send all" a message that you are at war with so and so. You never know if he/she has a neighbor looking for the right moment to let loose. With half the opposing army sitting on your Cap they are likely army-lite elsewhere.
