End and delete all Feuds (the game entity, not the rule).
Rewrite the rule entitled “Feuds” to the following (or if no such rule exists, create it with this text):
A Feud is a conflict between two nonempty, non-overlapping sets (Sides) of Nobles. Each Side has one Noble who is the Wronged Party of that Side. The ongoing Feuds and their participants are tracked in the Feuds wiki page. Nobles who are on the same Side are each other’s Allies. Nobles who are on opposing Sides of a Feud are each other’s Enemies.
As a Daily Action, a Noble may Declare a Feud upon another Noble by spending 5 Dignity and making a post to that effect and creating a Feud with both Nobles as the Wronged Parties of each Side, with no other participants. Any Noble may join either Side of a Feud at any time if they are not already participating in it.
If either of the Wronged Parties of a Feud is no longer a Noble, the Feud ends.
Create a subrule to “Feuds” entitled “Casi Belli”:
* It is Outrageous to declare a Feud upon one’s Ally.
* It is Proper not to Declare a Feud upon a Noble of the same Family, unless one has been improperly addressed by that Noble within the past 48 hours.
* When a Noble joins a Feud on the Side which has their Lord or Vassal as the Wronged Party, they gain 3 Dignity.
* It is Proper not to join a Side which has a Wronged Party who is not of one’s Family.
* It is Outrageous to join a Side which contains one’s Enemy.
Append to the first paragraph of the rule entitled “Dignity”:
If a Noble performs an Outrageous action, they lose half their Dignity, rounded up.
Getting rid of the dangerous undefined terms in nqeron’s proposal, and changing the rules of war so that inconsistent behaviour is possible but dishonourable (which is entirely appropriate for the time frame). I added a Dignity cost to hopefully discourage feud spam.
Seems a good idea.
