I am trying to figure out how alliances affect faction’s conflicts in general and especially trade embargo.
Example:
Javat and Steel Song have an alliance.
Steel Song and Rychart have a Solar War.
Javat and De Valtos have an alliance.
Javat and Thulan have a Trade Embargo.
Cadar and Thulan have a Trade alliance.
Thulan and Rychart have a Trade alliance.
Rychart and Cadar have a Solar War.
Question 1
If I trade Records with Rychart and gain faction, then I lose faction with Steel Song due to the Solar War. I also lose faction with Javat because of the alliance between Javat and Steel Song.
Do I also loose faction with De Valtos because of the alliance between Javat and De Valtos?
Question 2
I trade records with Cadar. Thulan gains factions because of the Trade Alliance. Since Thulan and Rychart have a Trade alliance, do I also gain faction with Rychart because of the Trade Alliance between Thulan and Rychart? If I do, do I also lose faction with Steel song because of the solar war and Javat because of the Javat/Steel song alliance?? Also, since I traded with Cadar and Thulan has a trade alliance, do I violate the Javat/Thulan Trade Embargo and lose faction with Javat as well.
I know the faction effects flow through Alliances, Trade Alliances, and Solar Wars to partners/opponents. Does it also flow through the partners/opponents Alliances, Trade Alliances, and Solar wars as well??
Also, do you only violate the Trade Embargo if you trade with the listed opponents or do you also violate it if you trade with somebody with an alliance to the Trade Embargo?
If someone could answer these questions, I would be grateful.
